What Guests Are Saying
Minersville Campground offers a nice camping experience, though some guests feel the $60 fee for a non-hookup site is steep, especially given the limited flat space for tents. Reviewers noted issues with overflowing trash and the need for more frequent restroom servicing. Despite these concerns, many appreciate the location and enjoy their time at the campground.

the campground is nice, but $60 for a camp spot with no hookups is pretty expensive. They called it a double space but that just meant there was enough room for 2 cars to park, not enough flat space for two large tents. Very deceiving and compared to the other sites, they should ALL be $30 a night.

We were at the Minnersville campsite from 6/26-7/3. The large dumpster, was completely full upon our arrival, and for th entire week we were there. The smaller trash cans by the restrooms were also stuffed to capacity. At the height of summer, before a major holiday, the trash should probably be removed every three days. The garbage was overflowing with garbage strewn around by birds and other wildlife. Also, the restrooms really need to be serviced daily. And, it would be helpful if prior to another campers arrival, trash and debris in the campground was collected: With increased rate for basic camping, it is too bad that basic service has to suffer to this degree.

Very nice campground. Feels somewhat remote. Upon returning from our backpacking trip, we were able to walk directly from camp, down to the lake (low, but not gone in 2023) and fall in the water, hiking clothes and all. The water felt great!
Campsite #1 isn't optimal because it is heavily illuminated by the bathroom's utility light. Not sure why that light is on, since the utility door is locked at night anyway.

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.

Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
