James Creek RV Resort

1 RV Site, 5 Cabins

James Creek RV Resort in James Creek, PA, offers 1 RV site and 5 cabins, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for a rig up to 38 feet. The single RV site is a back-in carrying water and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. There's no sewer at the site, so plan on the on-site dump station. The site reservation includes up to 8 people, which makes it workable for a family rather than a couple. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, boat storage, and personal mailboxes cover the practical side, and the five cabins mean a reunion group can book the property together. Pets are welcome. The amenity list is that of a full resort: an outdoor pool, mini-golf, a clubhouse, a snack bar, on-site dining, sport courts, basketball, volleyball, a pavilion, a barn, a playground, and walking trails, with fishing, swimming, and hiking on the creek and lake. James Creek sits in Huntingdon County in the Raystown Lake corridor of central Pennsylvania, in the Juniata River valley, with a state park nearby. Rates for the RV site and cabins are on the booking page. One RV site — call to book.

Glendale Valley Campground

17 RV Sites, 7 Tent Sites

Glendale Valley Campground in Fallentimber, Pennsylvania, offers 17 full-hookup RV sites and seven tent sites at the edge of the Allegheny Plateau, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 42 feet behind a gated entrance.

Seventeen sites run in pull-through standard and standard categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, sized to 42 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Two straightforward categories keep booking simple. Seven tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills, restrooms, showers, firewood, and EV charging handle the practical side — charging is still uncommon at campgrounds this size and worth knowing about if you tow with an electric vehicle. A beach and boat ramp open the water for boating, canoeing, kayaking, fishing, and swimming, with a recreation center, sports courts, volleyball, gaga ball, walking trails, hiking, biking, mountain biking, and a playground filling the rest. Live music and planned activities run through the season, and the mountain sky makes for good stargazing. The campground sits two miles from Prince Gallitzin State Park — Pennsylvania's third most visited — which protects 1,635-acre Glendale Lake and 26 miles of forested shoreline. DelGrosso's Amusement Park, Tytoona Cave, the Ghost Town Trail, Rock Run Recreation Park, and Altoona Curve baseball are all close. Summer and fall foliage drive demand in the Alleghenies.

Nature's Getaway RV Park

30 RV Sites, 3 Tent Sites

Nature's Getaway RV Park in Schellsburg, Pennsylvania, offers 30 RV sites and three tent sites seven miles west of Bedford on Route 30, with 20, 30, and 50-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted to 45 feet.

Thirty sites span back-in water-and-electric 30-amp, back-in water-and-electric 50-amp, and pull-thru water-and-electric 30-amp categories, carrying water and electric with site WiFi, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Plan around the hookups — sites carry water and electric but not sewer, so manage tank capacity and use the dump station. Three tent sites and cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and firewood handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a game room, arcade, ball field, billiards, shuffleboard, volleyball, horseshoes, a playground, and swimming filling the rest. A state park is nearby, and the dark rural sky makes for genuinely good stargazing. Pets are welcome. Bedford County sits where the Allegheny Mountain ridges meet Shawnee State Park's forested plateau, and the old Lincoln Highway corridor has carried travelers past this spot since the road was built. Historic Bedford's preserved downtown, the Flight 93 National Memorial, and Blue Knob's skiing are all within reach, with the Pennsylvania Turnpike close. Summer and fall foliage drive the heaviest demand in the Alleghenies. Reserve ahead for holiday weekends and peak October color.

Wildwood RV Resort

16 RV Sites

Wildwood RV Resort in East Waterford, Pennsylvania, offers 16 full-hookup RV sites on oversized lots in the wooded hills of Juniata County, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet.

Sixteen sites run in back-in and pull-through categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 50 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Two straightforward categories keep booking simple, and the oversized lots are what guests notice first — real space between sites rather than the packed rows common at this size. A general store, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, showers, firewood, a business center, and golf cart rentals handle the practical side. An outdoor pool and spa anchor the summer, with a beach and pond for swimming, fishing, boating, and paddle boats.

Ridge Rider Campground

28 RV Sites, 44 Tent Sites

Ridge Rider Campground in Little Orleans, Maryland, offers 27 RV sites and 44 tent sites across 222 acres in the Potomac's ridge-and-valley country, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. Full-hookup and water-and-electric back-in categories join a pull-through tier, with an outdoor pool, recreation center, game room, and pond. Twenty-seven sites span back-in full hookup, back-in water-and-electric, and pull-thru categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Confirm your tier, as the water-and-electric category does not carry sewer at the site. Forty-four tent sites make this predominantly a tent property. A general store, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, showers, portable toilets, firewood, and RV storage handle the practical side. One policy to know: outside firewood is not permitted, but firewood is available at the camp store — a standard measure against invasive pests. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a recreation center, game room, sports courts, basketball, volleyball, horseshoes, corn hole, a pond, playground, pavilion, and walking trails filling the rest. Canoeing, kayaking, fishing, swimming, hiking, and biking run on the river, with offroading nearby.

Sleepy Hollow Campground

18 RV Sites, 5 Cabins, 9 Tent Sites

Sleepy Hollow Campground in Grantsville, Maryland, offers 18 RV sites, five cabins, and nine tent sites adjacent to New Germany State Park, with 20, 30, and 50-amp electric service and rigs accepted to 36 feet behind a gated entrance. One important detail before you book: the RV sites are not full hookup. Eighteen sites run in 30-amp and 30/50-amp categories carrying electric only, sized to 36 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and site WiFi. There is no water or sewer at the sites — a water filling station sits beside the bathhouse as the alternative, and a dump station is available. Note the 36-foot cap as well. Five cabins and nine tent sites round out the accommodations. A general store, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. Walking trails run the property, with hiking from the grounds and a state park immediately adjacent. Boating, a lake, river, and golf course are all nearby. Pets are welcome. Western Maryland occupies a narrow sliver of Appalachian terrain pinched between Pennsylvania and West Virginia, and it delivers outdoor experiences that most of the Mid-Atlantic has not gotten around to yet. Deep Creek Lake, Swallow Falls, the Casselman River, and New Germany State Park are all destination-caliber, and Grantsville sits at the center of the whole Garrett County outdoor corridor. Summer and fall foliage drive demand in the Maryland highlands. Reserve ahead, and plan your water and tank capacity around the electric-only sites.

Campers Paradise Campground and Cabins

52 RV Sites, 20 Tent Sites

Campers Paradise Campground and Cabins in Sigel, Pennsylvania, offers 52 RV sites and 20 tent sites beside Cook Forest, with 30-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet.

Twenty tent sites and cabins round out the accommodations. A general store, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side, with a gated entrance controlling access.

Horse paddocks and on-site fishing guides are the distinguishing amenities — genuine equestrian infrastructure and local angling knowledge in one property. A hot tub and sauna, game room, playground, community fire pit, on-site dining, volleyball, basketball, corn hole, boating, and swimming fill the rest. Pets are welcome. The campground sits beside Cook Forest in the Allegheny National Forest region, where old-growth hemlock, clear trout streams, and the timber heritage of the Pennsylvania Wilds create one of the most scenically rewarding camping environments in the eastern United States.
