Owens Creek Campground offers a serene and well-maintained camping experience with spacious, private sites nestled among trees. Campers appreciate the friendly and attentive hosts, clean bathrooms, and complimentary firewood, enhancing the overall enjoyment of their stay. While some noted occasional noise from other campers and the need for trail maintenance, the peaceful ambiance and natural beauty make it a desirable destination for future visits.

Calm and peaceful stay except in the morning Canadian wildfire smoke enveloped the area.

This campground is small and VERY secluded. If you're looking for something that's close to things, this may not be your first choice, but if you're looking for some peace and quiet in the woods, GO HERE! We used Owen's Creek as a base camp for visiting the Emmitsburg Shrines and Gettysburg Battlegrounds, and are so glad we chose it over other, more "convenient" campgrounds. The sites were great, the bathrooms were nice and clean, there's firewood available for purchase, and the campground host is very kind and helpful.

This is a really nice place …. It’s just a basic camp ground but really nice. They have a utility slop sink to wash dishes, that was real high on convenience factor . The cooking grates / fire rings are really nice ones.
