Rip Van Winkle Campground

The best! We stay here frequently. The sites are private, spacious and well kept, with plenty of trees to hang a hammock. There isn't a bad site in the whole place! Plenty of amenities for the kids - heated pool, mini golf, arcade, pond, paddle boats, bounce house, playgrounds, river, ice cream, train, hayride. The list goes on and almost all are included with no additional fees! The staff is all friendly and everything is clean. We love it!

The campground is nice, but that snack shack is really what blew my mind. That was a really good burger. The mozzarella sticks were so good. They tasted like homemade everything was fried perfectly cooked perfectly. The juice level on the burger was perfect hats off to the couple in the kitchen at the snack shack Really made my afternoon. ;)

Great spot with lots of amenities and friendly staff. Called last minute trying to find a place to park my camper van overnight and they were extremely helpful in getting me a plot. Showers are hot and clean, trails are maintained and while I didn't use many of the amenities there are a lot. Laundry on site, mini golf, a pool and plenty of other things if you bring kids. It's very RV/Camper centric but they have plots in the back for cars/vans/tents. Much reccomended and would stop again if in the area. Extra shout out to Daria in the front office, she is so kind and a huge help.

Rip Van Winkle campground is such a special place! My family and I have been visiting the campground for the past five years and we’ve always enjoyed each trip. The grounds are a mix of nature and comfort, from the beautiful, crystal clear Plattekill Creek and shaded sites, to the well stocked camp store and snack shack, private showers, heated pool, and endless activities. Rips is the kind of campground that you never want to leave, once there! We have stayed in both cabins and tent camped and always look for sites along the creek. We have made wonderful memories during their exciting themed weekends like their Christmas in July or their incredible Halloween weekend, but have also marveled at how quiet and peaceful the grounds are during the weekdays. Such a great family campground our family has come to love!

We stayed here as an over night on a trip. The campground was fairly easy to get to, and not far off the toll road. But once you turn into the campground there is a steep driveway that curves slightly… we took it slow, at one point we had maybe 4” of clearance between the cap and the bed of the truck. We were in spot #9… a pull -thru for up to 45 ft. We are 42 ft and the nose of our truck was in the bush to right next to the site# sign, and we had about 6” of clearance between our rig and the tree on the left. I would not recommend this site if you are any longer. This is a wooded campground and the roads throughout do curve around the trees at times, so take it slow. The trees are trimed plenty high somee had no issues with scrapping branches. The grounds are well maintained. Water pressure was good. Cell phone signal was great for T-Mobile, and WiFi was good. The campground seemed to be loaded with things to do… I wish we had more time to check it out. Neighbors were close but there’s plenty of trees between to not feel on top of each other. Our site was level.
