Has the coolest set up for corn hole and ping pong. I was cooking my brother in ping pong so bad he just left me there. There's a nice playground that is good for swinging. Close to lots of cool Gettysburg experiences near by. All the people here are chill and nice to talk to. I caught one massive crawdaddy. I was so busy having fun and doing activities I forgot to drink water and my pee became very yellow. Best campground in the area.

A very nice campground to stay at in Gettysburg. Very close to all the Gettysburg attractions…read more Majority of the spots are nice and shady with W/E hook ups, fire ring and picnic table. I would like to rant about the immaculate, air conditioned bath house...just lovely! Nice and clean and well maintained. The best bath house we have seen on our road trip. There's a cool creek next to the campground. They have a really nice playground for the children and a large seating area next to it. All lit up at night with beautiful string lights. Mini golf spot, arcade games room, nice pool, cabins to rent and let's talk about their camping store...it had everything you could possibly want in there! And I'm not joking! From camping stuff to little swimmers for toddlers and Gettysburg merch. Just everything! BONUS - they have an ice cream parlor! Ahhhh! Good selection of flavours with your choice of a waffle/sugar cone or cup. Deeeelightful! Staff are so friendly and John (I think that's his name) is hilarious! We felt so welcomed. Thank you. Overall, this is a campground that has everything you need. If I could give this place a ten, I would. We'll be back next year.

Beautiful state park and campground. First time here. Plenty to see and great place to relax…read more Campground was clean for gravel sites. But site was level and easy to set up. Enjoyed our time!!

A bit of a mixed bag for me at Cunningham Falls…read more.. I was excited to find a listing of parks that supposedly had wheelchair accessible trails. I've never been to Cunningham Falls before and the idea of seeing a waterfall seemed lovely. However, the accessible boardwalk has strips on pretty much everything board which made me feel like I was riding a very angry horse. Each bump shot pain up my spine. I'm writing this a day later and I still hurt, and I think I'm a pretty tough chick... and the view of the falls was mostly blocked and not worth the actual pain. The Falls is more like a small stream of water that splashes down some rocks. It's a soothing noise but I was expecting something more grandiose... I suppose I could blame climate change. Most of the old stream beds are dry. We also checked out the "south beach" which I enjoyed. There's plenty of pavement, and packed gravel. I couldn't get close to the water, but that's okay because it was a sunny day and I prefer to stick to the shade. I was impressed by the fact that every picnic table has a grill nearby. If I lived closer I'd like to think I'd come to the south beach often, hide in the trees near the river, grill something delicious... but I was a several hours long trip from Dundalk, so it's unlikely that I'll return. It was a nice day-trip though. I don't regret going.

We enjoyed our time here overall. I would say, compared to the previous Yogi Bear Campground in…read moreBedford County, PA, just north of Pittsburgh, this one fell a little short. The positives of this place is the staff was overall very friendly, the water park was awesome and it was very quick to get here from DC. The downsides was that it is fairly pricey, the store is incredibly limited, and overall it feels a lot more dated than the Bedford location. Also, food is incredibly limited. We ended up ordering on Uber Eats since this Yogi Bear didn't offer dinner service and their pizza ovens stopped working. It was late in the season though.

I enjoyed the water park amenities for the kids although I did not love that all the staff went to…read morethe bathroom at the same time and all the kids had to be removed from the water, for younger kids this is extremely disruptive. My room had a wide range of issues which did hinder my trip and made the high price for my cabin non justifiable. The main office was closed and called back the next day which was not ideal. The events were not always timely for instance the advertised pool party didn't start getting setup until 15 minutes after advertised and it was indeed not a party. Lastly the canteen was inexcusably inefficient for grabbing a meal by the pool. You had to wait in line for 45+ minutes and then were quoted an additional 1+ hour until you would get your food. In all this park has so much potential to be better. But if cabins are not up to par, guests should be contacted in advance or given a remedy.

Michaux State Forest - The unpaved road isn't so scary, trust me. Go slow, watch for ruts and you'll be just fine!

If you're looking for an easy but super cool hike with big payoff, Hammonds Rocks in Michaux State…read moreForest is a must. I stopped by on a warm, sunny October Sunday morning while in the area for the National Apple Harvest Festival (about 30 minutes away), and somehow had the whole place to myself. It was so peaceful--just the sound of leaves rustling in the breeze and the occasional thud of acorns falling from the trees. The walk in is short and easy--basically a flat stroll past a couple of informational signs to reach the boulder outcropping. From there, the fun begins! Hammonds Rocks is about 400 feet long, with massive stone formations to climb, wander, and explore. I spent about 45 minutes hopping from stone to stone, taking photos, and checking out different angles of the formations. Even without climbing, there are plenty of spots to enjoy the view, though the tall trees do block some of it. Still, with the leaves just starting to turn to their fall colors, it was absolutely beautiful. The info signs are worth a pause, too--they really put things into perspective. One noted that when the sediments making up these rocks were deposited, the spot where I was standing was on the shore of a great ocean...530-600 MILLION years ago. Wild. Absolutely mind blowing! As for access: don't panic when Google Maps tells you the next few miles are unpaved. The gravel road is manageable if you take it slow and keep an eye out for some monster ruts. (Speaking from experience: this 40-something woman in her beloved Alfa Romeo made it just fine.) Just don't attempt in winter without knowing what you're getting into--the roads aren't maintained in snow or ice. Overall, Hammonds Rocks is an easy, low-effort, high-reward stop. Whether you're climbing, photographing, or just taking in the history and scenery, it's a great way to spend part of your day in Michaux.

The facilities were clean, the sites are level and the staff friendly and helpful. It was a plus that we were able to fill our propane tanks here instead of making a special excursion, there's lots to see and do in Gettysburg. My only gripe was that most of the Campground is gravel, no pavement so the rains made it very muddy. Still, I highly recommend!

I would absolutely not recommend this campground. The only reason we stay here is for the winefest…read moreso we don't have to drive. Let's start at the beginning ..Cora in the office was just downright nasty when I went to check in. It's also $10 pp to just park your vehicle at the site if you are visiting after the winefest for a few hours. My campsite had huge holes throughout it which made it hazardous for not only my 80 year old parents but also for myself with back issues. I accidentally fell from stepping in the hole and was very lucky I didn't break a bone. We ended up putting our trash bin in the one big hole so nobody else fell. The showers had cobwebs and mildew and you couldn't adjust the water temperature.. you got whatever temp came out. Then On check out day.. the sewer must have been backed up cause when I went to dump the grey tank it all started coming out of the sewer hole like a water fountain all over the campsite. Totally disgusting.

Our time at PA Dutch Country was wonderful.

We enjoyed our stay and rate as follows: Cleanliness: 5 Star Wifi/Cell Signal: 5 Star Lot Size: 4 Star Lots were a bit tight, although they had a lot of space the trees blocked much of the usable space and prevented us from extending our awning fully.

Paradise Stream was a fun relaxing camping trip with friends and family…read more This was our first visit and we were impressed. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The campground is large and organized into different sections/site types including cabins and glamping tents. There are sites overlooking the lake and ones that are more secluded. Our site was in the 200 block and very level. It took no time at all to get the camper set up for the weekend. Water pressure was good and steady power. WI-FI was also average for a campground. If you enjoy a campfire and plan on staying a few days spring for the "cage" of firewood/weekender. It is a large metal cage of firewood they deliver to your site for only $50. That may seem like a lot, but with single bundles costing between $7-$10 at most places this is a deal. We had a steady campfire going for 3 nights/days and still had wood left. There are amenities for kids and adults from the pools, lakes, and activities to the wine shed and music. Everyone can find something to do that they would enjoy. There is a well-stocked general store and ice cream shop!

This was our third year at Paradise Stream. As with past years we enjoyed our stay! One plus is…read morethat the past two years we had a different spot than the first year that we absolutely LOVE - already booked for next year! The campground is clean and the staff are very friendly. The owners are top notch. The camp store does not disappoint. They have everything you can imagine, and the salted caramel iced coffee is a MUST! Plenty of activities for everyone. The shuffle board and pickle ball areas have been updated for this year, and all the other areas are still in great shape - pool, game room, gaga ball, etc. Spending time riding around the campground in a golf cart is a must if you want to see everything. The views from the top near the lake are spectacular! Glad we made this one of our summer 'homes!' It does not disappoint!!
