Park is right on route 30, but didn't seem noisy at night. Go out to the North side and right into the Amish countryside. Quite a bit of gravel in evidence - site leveling and road filling going on. Fairly easy in and out except there's always a traffic jam in Gap. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We camped here in October 2007 and had a great time. We camped next to a field where "spillover" & tents would go. There was a steam engine festival right next door, so it was a bit loud when the steam engine was running but otherwise it was quiet. We did not interact with the office except to check in. *** I guessed at the nightly rate. it was in that neighborhood We camped here in a Motorhome.
When we arrived they only site they had available was a pull in site. We were able to drop the trailer & drive thru the grass across the playground. We did have a problem when leaving. The site was on a small hill and the grass was wet. To connect the trailer I had to get a running start. Overall campground looked nice, but we will not return due to our negative experience. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We were there for a rally and in the lower unshaded area..campground is older but quiet. Sites are not always level, showers had mosquitoes on the walls, needs screen doors. We enjoyed our stay and would go back, but might look for another location. We camped here in a Motorhome.
If you stay here, request a site that faces the field near the playground - you will have a shaded campsite and nice view. We stayed here 2 nights as our base for visiting the Lancaster area. Our site was nice, but not very level although this wasn't a problem. There is no pool which was OK since it was too cool for swimming, this may be an issue for summer campers. In the evening an Amish family came by each site with a cart that had tarts, pies and breads for sale - very nice touch. Didn't use the bathhouse, but checked it out and it was clean - 2 toilets and 2 showers. Overall a nice campground that is clean and quiet. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
Good park for touring Pennsylvania Dutch Country. Right along Rt. 30 but away from highway noise. Some sites are well shaded in the woods and others are in a grassy, semi-open area. Our site was very level. Also had nice looking cabins. Park was clean, neat and quiet. We could not get WiFi from our site but they said it was available. Passport American rate was $17.50 (Sun - Thurs). We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
The pull through sites are back out sites if there is someone parked across from your site. Very hilly and muddy after rain. Campground needs more maintenance and attention to detail. The seasonal people we met were very rude. We camped here in a Motorhome.
For the Lancaster area this was a OK campground. The site we had was very large but very unlevel, however it did have a great view. While we were there we had some big storms with heavy downpours and found out our site gathered a lot of run off which made our motorhome in the middle of a nice flowing creek. This is a great campground to use as a home base while visiting the Lancaster area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We enjoyed our first visit to this campground. We chose it due to its proximity to the Sights and Sounds Theatre and chose the preferred site with a view of an Amish valley. It was nice, except that the view also included a metal fence with old equipment on the other side. I'm not sure I would have called it preferred site, but it was still nice. This was a good campground to take in the Amish culture of the area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
