Great camp ground for the Pennsylvania Renn Faire.
Though there is a firing range or something nearby, so if occasional distant gunshots freak you out might be an issue. No one in our party had an issue with it though.

With our tents we appreciated the gravel setup to help with drainage so we weren't slopping around in the mud. Also they have these movable fire puts made from tire rims which work better than you'd think.

We haven't stayed here since the 90's when our membership was under resorts usa. I am literally here cleaning our cabin. It's extremely dusty, porch covered in leaves, and the stove has something sticky dripping down the front of it. Why are we paying cabin fees or any fees and then cleaning the cabin to enjoy it. Mind you, we are here til Sunday. Horrible

WE stayed here for 2 week in early September in a 30' TT. We had a nice sized lot though there was a lot of slope front to back. There was room to park both vehicles, but the trees did drop sap on both cars that we are still trying to get off. Bathrooms were clean and well kept. There are a number of places to eat near by. There are two major draw backs, one the water has a lot of rust in it and smells. When we asked an employee about it they suggested Rust oleum rust remover for those places it showed. We added two different filters that helped but still had the issues. Luckily we had family near by so we could shower and wash clothes there. Second issue, is the gun range close by. If you don't mind hearing high caliber shooting every day all day long, then it won't be an issue. We didn't enjoy it so didn't spend much time outside which was too bad because the trees there are beautiful. A local that I talked to about the water, said yea the rust and smell are a problem, he just replaces the water filter every time he stays there and only stays for a weekend. Can't say this one is on our list to return to.

We came into town for the PA renaissance festival, and stayed at the tent sites for the weekend. The only really good part of the stay was having a sense of seclusion/privacy with the trees around us to separate us from the pool.

We booked a few months in advance for two sites, and I made notes on both reservations that we were together. Thankfully I called a week before to double check. They originally had the two locations on opposite ends of the park. Even after calling, they still put us in a spot with a bunch of trees and thorny brush between the two sites. There was an open site next to us that would have been perfect. I know another party had a similar issue with their reservations and needed to walk even further between their sites.

The worst part of the stay was that the tent sites are all on thick gravel. We bent/broke several stakes and needed a hammer to get them down into the ground. Sleeping on gravel was a nightmare even with several layers underneath. Its also a solid walk to the closest restroom, at the pool, which got annoying quickly.

I'm sure this campsite must be pleasant for RVs, but I will not be coming back to camp.
