The PA Wilds is a 12,000-square-mile expanse of north-central wilderness where elk graze open meadows at dusk, the Pine Creek Gorge drops 1,000 feet through what is sometimes called Pennsylvania's Grand Canyon, and the night sky is dark enough to have earned one of the most significant dark sky designations in the eastern United States. Cherry Springs State Park is the destination for that. Summer and fall foliage drive demand. Reserve well ahead.

Riverbend RV Park

139 RV Sites

Riverbend RV Park sits in Blossvale, New York, on the southwestern shore of Oneida Lake—the largest lake entirely within New York State—where the park's waterfront position, boat dock access, and proximity to Sylvan Beach provide the full complement of inland lake resort camping that central New York's largest body of water sustains for seasonal campers and destination visitors. The campground is the East property of a two-park Riverbend operation in the Blossvale area, offering spacious wooded lakeside sites that accommodate any size RV in a setting where the water and the social infrastructure of the Sylvan Beach strip are both within reach. Full hookup sites with 5-way hookup service—electric, water, sewer, cable, and telephone—serve seasonal and short-term campers in a well-maintained site layout. Wooded sites with water views, cabins for enclosed accommodation, a playground, laundry, showers, walking trails, and boat docks provide the foundational amenities. Planned activities through the season and bird and wildlife watching in the lake corridor fill the recreation calendar, and the campground's Oneida Lake frontage provides swimming, kayaking, canoeing, and boating access from the property's own dock infrastructure. Oneida Lake's fishery is one of the most actively managed in New York State—the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation stocks the lake annually with walleye, yellow perch, and bass, supporting a sportfishery that draws serious anglers from across the Mohawk Valley and central New York for the walleye population that has made the lake locally famous. The lake's 79 square miles of open water provide habitat for all of these species across a range of depth and structure conditions, and the early ice-out season each spring triggers the walleye activity that signals the opening of the central New York fishing season. Sylvan Beach, about two miles from the campground, provides the entertainment infrastructure that transforms a camping trip on Oneida Lake into a genuinely social destination: a small amusement park, the Lake House Casino at Sylvan Beach, the Crazy Clam, and the waterfront restaurants and ice cream shops that have made Sylvan Beach central New York's classic summer beach town since the late nineteenth century. The town's combination of carnival atmosphere, lake access, and walking-distance bars and restaurants gives it a nostalgic summer resort character that remains largely unchanged by the development that has transformed other Great Lakes tourism communities. Riverbend RV Park operates through the upstate New York camping season, typically May through October, in a lake climate where Oneida Lake's thermal mass moderates the temperature swings that inland central New York experiences and the long summer days provide maximum time on the water. The fall walleye season in September and October drives some of the most dedicated fishing traffic of the year, and the early spring ice-out period begins the season that seasonal campers return to establish for the summer. Rome and Utica are within easy reach for urban amenity access when needed, and the Erie Canal corridor to the south provides historical cycling and boating context for the broader Mohawk Valley region.

Fair Point Marina

1 Cottage

Fair Point Marina in Fair Haven, New York, offers cottage accommodations and full-hookup sites at a working marina on Little Sodus Bay, with boat docks, boat storage, a beach, on-site dining, and live music. The natural harbor opens onto Lake Ontario's southern shore in one of the region's most protected anchorages. Cottage lodging and full-hookup sites serve guests, with laundry, a dump station, restrooms, showers, and a general store handling the practical side. WiFi reaches the property, and a clubhouse rounds out the facilities. Boat storage is available — genuinely useful at a property where most guests arrive with a boat or intend to spend their days on one. Pets are welcome. The marina is the identity here. Boat docks give direct access to Little Sodus Bay and out to Lake Ontario, with boating, fishing, and swimming from the property and a beach on site. On-site dining and live music create a waterfront resort atmosphere rooted in the boating and lakeside social culture that Fair Haven has sustained since the nineteenth century. Biking runs from the area, with a state park, golf course, wine tasting, and skiing all nearby. Fair Haven sits in Cayuga County, where the natural harbor that has sheltered Great Lakes boaters for generations meets one of the Finger Lakes region's most naturally beautiful freshwater coastal communities. The boating season is short and concentrated on Lake Ontario. Summer is decisively the peak — reserve well ahead for July and August.

Shady Shores RV Resort & Campground

6 RV Sites

Shady Shores RV Resort and Campground in Sterling, New York, delivers waterfront camping along the south shore of Lake Ontario and the Blind Sodus Bay inlet in Cayuga County's lakefront countryside — a resort with breathtaking Great Lake views in the Sterling and Fair Haven area that has served as a favorite destination for families and friends seeking the specific combination of Lake Ontario's open-water beauty, the Fair Haven Beach State Park's sandy shoreline, and the world-class trophy trout and salmon fishing that the lake's cold, deep waters produce in the remarkable fishery that has made the Lake Ontario south shore one of the premier sport fishing destinations in the Great Lakes system. The resort's bay and lake frontage gives guests the multi-aspect waterfront experience — the protected Blind Sodus Bay for calm-water recreation and the open Lake Ontario shoreline for the full Great Lake experience. RV sites and camping accommodations with the shoreline positioning on Lake Ontario and Blind Sodus Bay give guests the comprehensive waterfront access that the Sterling-Fair Haven corridor provides for boating, swimming, fishing, and the specific sunrise-over-the-lake experience that a western New York Great Lakes shore campground delivers on clear mornings when the lake's unobstructed northeastern horizon lights the water in the specific quality of Great Lakes dawn light. The resort's decades of serving returning family guests reflect the depth of loyalty that a well-positioned waterfront campground sustains from year to year. Pets are welcome. Lake Ontario's sport fishery is one of the most productive trophy trout and salmon fisheries in North America — a legacy of the Great Lakes restoration programs that began stocking chinook salmon, coho salmon, steelhead rainbow trout, brown trout, and lake trout into the lake system in the 1960s and 1970s, creating a sport fishery where the open-lake trolling for chinook salmon in the summer months and the bay and stream steelhead runs in fall and spring sustain a charter boat industry of significant regional scale. The Wayne and Cayuga County Lake Ontario ports — Sodus Point, Fair Haven, Port Ontario — provide the charter fleet access to open-water fishing that produces the trophy catches that the Great Lakes sport fishing industry specifically markets to anglers from across the northeastern United States and Ontario. Fair Haven Beach State Park, two miles west of the resort in Cayuga County, preserves a mile of Lake Ontario sand beach and the Sodus Bay inlet's bay beach in a state park that gives public access to the shoreline that private resort development has claimed along most of the Lake Ontario south shore. The park's swimming beach, pier fishing access, and the dune-backed natural beach character give families the public waterfront complement to the resort's private amenity infrastructure. Shady Shores RV Resort and Campground operates through the upstate New York camping season from spring through fall, with the summer months from mid-June through Labor Day representing the peak family camping demand and the spring and fall fishing seasons for steelhead and brown trout drawing the angling-focused visitor market that extends the resort's effective season into April through May and September through October. The Erie Canal's cultural and cycling tourism, accessible 20 miles south via the Cayuga County trail network, gives the resort's inland neighbors a heritage tourism dimension that complements the lakefront recreation. Reserve sites well ahead for summer holiday weekends and the July salmon-fishing peak when Ontario south shore accommodation fills from the New York and Ontario markets.

Cozy Hills Campground

42 RV Sites, 7 Cabins, 9 Tent Sites, 1 Onsite RV/Trailer

Cozy Hills Campground sits in the Litchfield Hills of northwestern Connecticut, a region of rolling hardwood forests, colonial-era villages, and clear-water lakes that represents one of New England's most well-preserved rural landscapes. The cozy hills campground combines a comprehensive family activity roster with the natural setting of Connecticut's most scenic interior county, making it a year-round destination for campers from the New York metro area and the Connecticut River valley alike. The campground offers full hookup sites with 30 and 50-amp service, water and sewer, and WiFi throughout the property, alongside RV rentals and cabin accommodations for guests who arrive without their own equipment. Recreation options are exceptional in breadth: a pool, fishing pond, three playgrounds, mini golf, a mega slide, jump pad, Gaga ball, BMX bike track, outdoor laser tag, and archery cover active entertainment across all age groups. Hay rides, campfire programs, and fishing round out the more traditional activities, while an on-site restaurant, arcade, and general store handle food and entertainment needs without requiring a trip off-property. Propane fill, firewood, and a dump station address RV logistics, and a dog park accommodates traveling pets. The Litchfield Hills landscape surrounding the campground is defined by second-growth forests of oak, maple, birch, and hickory, with the rolling terrain of the Berkshire foothills creating a scenic backdrop that peaks during October's foliage season. Bantam Lake—Connecticut's largest natural lake—is a short drive away, along with the White Memorial Conservation Center, which protects 4,000 acres of forest, wetlands, and Bantam River corridor as the largest nature center in Connecticut. The agricultural heritage of Litchfield County runs deep, and roadside farm stands, historic barns, and working orchards define the drives between campground and town. Litchfield's historic town green—one of the finest in New England—is surrounded by Federal-period architecture and anchors a village that has changed little in the past two centuries. The Haight-Brown Vineyard, Connecticut's oldest winery, produces estate wines from the Litchfield Hills terrain and offers tastings and tours. Lake Waramaug State Park to the west provides additional public swimming, kayaking, and lakeside picnicking in a setting often compared to the Swiss countryside. The covered bridges of Cornwall and West Cornwall cross the Housatonic River about 20 minutes west, providing a scenic detour that typifies the Litchfield Hills' preserved New England character. Cozy Hills operates through the New England camping season with peak demand in summer and fall foliage season—October weekends book up particularly fast as the Litchfield Hills deliver some of Connecticut's best leaf color. The combination of a full-activity campground, a genuinely beautiful rural setting, and proximity to the cultural pleasures of Litchfield County makes this a destination that rewards multi-night stays rather than quick overnights.

White Pines Campsites

White Pines Campsites in Barkhamsted, Connecticut, offers 143 RV sites, three cabins, 11 tent sites, and a yurt in Litchfield County's northwest hill country, with 20, 30, and 50-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted to 44 feet.

One hundred forty-three sites run in standard and deluxe categories, carrying water and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 44 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Two things to plan around: sites carry water and electric but not sewer, so manage tank capacity and use the dump station, and the 44-foot cap rules out larger rigs. RVs are also required to be in good condition, generally within a 10-year model range, so clear older coaches with the park first. Three cabins, 11 tent sites, and a yurt round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. An outdoor pool and beach anchor the summer, with a pond supporting boating, canoeing, kayaking, fishing, and swimming.

Cedar Lake Resort

On 76 acres of York County farmland north of the town of Dover in the Pennsylvania Dutch Country corridor, Cedar Lake Resort offers 195 campsites around a seven-acre fishing lake—a family-oriented campground that has built its reputation on the combination of lakeside setting, a family petting zoo, a swimming pool, planned weekly activities, and proximity to Gettysburg National Military Park and the Pennsylvania Dutch Country attractions that make York County one of central Pennsylvania's most rewarding camping destinations. The campground's full hookup sites, electric and water sites, tent camping, and cabin accommodations serve the full accommodation spectrum for families, couples, and history enthusiasts who make York County a camping destination rather than simply a corridor stop. One hundred ninety-five sites include full hookup options, electric and water sites, and tent-only sites spread across the 76-acre grounds, with each site featuring a picnic table and fire ring on level, stoned pads with easy access. A beautiful inground pool, a fully stocked 7-acre fishing lake, snack bar, game room, laundromat, LP gas, and a recreation hall serving as the hub for weekly planned activities provide the resort-level infrastructure for guests who want more from a campground than utilities and a level pad. The family petting zoo—a particular draw for younger campers—adds the agricultural touchstone that suits the Pennsylvania Dutch Country landscape surrounding the campground. The 7-acre lake at the campground's center provides a managed freshwater fishing environment stocked with species that make a fishing lake attractive across age ranges, giving young anglers the realistic expectation of success that builds lasting fishing enthusiasm. Swimming is available on the lake alongside the inground pool, giving the campground two distinct aquatic recreation options for warm summer days. The surrounding York County agricultural landscape provides the visual character of the Pennsylvania farm country that has been the backbone of central Pennsylvania's economic and cultural identity since the first German and Swiss settlers arrived in the late 17th century. Gettysburg National Military Park, about 35 miles west, preserves the three-day July 1863 battle that constitutes the largest land battle ever fought in North America—a 6,000-acre battlefield of ridges, fields, orchards, and monuments that requires multiple days to explore fully and rewards each visit with new tactical and human detail. The Pennsylvania Dutch Country's network of farmers markets, antique galleries, and farm-stand produce along the US Route 30 corridor between York and Lancaster provides the agricultural and culinary tourism that defines central Pennsylvania's leisure identity, and the York County Heritage Trust's network of museums in downtown York interprets the county's role in colonial and Revolutionary American history, including its brief service as the Continental Congress's meeting place in 1777-1778. York County's four-season climate makes Cedar Lake Resort functional from spring through fall with the typical Memorial Day through Labor Day peak season and shoulder season availability on both sides. Spring brings Pennsylvania countryside wildflowers and the green return to the campground's wooded areas, while fall's deciduous color peaks in October and provides the most spectacular visual backdrop for fishing on the seven-acre lake and evening campfires. The proximity to Gettysburg's reenactment season and the York Fair—one of the oldest agricultural fairs in the United States, held each September—gives autumn camping at Cedar Lake an appeal that extends well beyond the natural season.

Bear Creek Lake

8 RV Sites

Bear Creek Lake Resort occupies 750 acres of forested hills and meadows in Franklinville, New York, in the Cattaraugus County highlands that define the southern tier of New York's Enchanted Mountains region. The resort centers on a private 15-acre lake—the bear creek lake itself—and delivers a recreation package that combines water sports, motorized trail access, equestrian activities, and court sports within a single property that feels more like a private wilderness retreat than a campground. The resort's amenities are built around physical adventure: the lake supports canoeing, kayaking, paddleboarding, and fishing for bass, trout, perch, and sunnies, while a heated Olympic-sized swimming pool provides a more structured water option. Miles of private ATV trails run through the wooded terrain surrounding the lake, and horseback riding adds an equestrian dimension that distinguishes Bear Creek from most family camping resorts in the Northeast. Basketball, tennis, and pickleball courts cover court sports, and full hookup RV sites, comfortable cabins, and scenic tent sites accommodate all accommodation preferences. The resort recently completed a $5 million renovation that has brought the facilities up to a level commensurate with the spectacular natural setting. Franklinville sits in the Cattaraugus County highlands, a landscape of deep hardwood-forested valleys, clear creeks, and the dramatic hill country that the last glacier left behind in southern New York. The terrain here is genuinely wild by eastern standards—thick second-growth forests on steep ridges, beaver ponds in valley bottoms, and the sense of being embedded in a large, relatively unpopulated landscape that grows increasingly rare this close to the population centers of the Northeast. The proximity to Ellicottville, one of western New York's premier resort towns, adds an extra dimension for guests who want options beyond the resort itself. Ellicottville, about fifteen minutes from the resort, anchors the region's tourist economy with Holiday Valley and HoliMont ski areas—two of the better ski destinations in the eastern United States—alongside a walkable village with distinctive restaurants and a summer and fall activity calendar. Allegany State Park, one of New York's largest and most diverse state parks at 65,000 acres, is within easy driving distance and provides camping, hiking, cycling, and swimming in an Appalachian Plateau setting. Letchworth State Park—sometimes called the Grand Canyon of the East for its dramatic 600-foot gorge carved by the Genesee River—is about an hour's drive and represents one of the Northeast's most spectacular natural landmarks. Bear Creek Lake Resort operates through the New York outdoor recreation season, with the full range of water, trail, and equestrian activities available through summer and fall. The ATV trail network draws motorsport enthusiasts, the lake attracts anglers and paddlers, and the combination makes it a rare multi-activity resort capable of satisfying a family with genuinely different outdoor interests. Book cabin accommodations early for summer holiday weekends in this part of western New York, where quality lodging options are limited and the Enchanted Mountains' growing reputation has steadily increased demand.
