About RV Campgrounds in Pennsylvania

RV camping in Pennsylvania offers an exceptional blend of mountain retreats, lakeside escapes, and forest hideaways spread across one of the East Coast's most diverse landscapes. From the unique bog ecosystem at Black Moshannon State Park in the central mountains to the sprawling 16,892-acre Pymatuning State Park along Pennsylvania's largest reservoir in the northwest, RV campers discover well-maintained campgrounds with full hookup sites and modern amenities.

Best Time

Peak RV camping season runs from late May through early October, with July and August bringing the warmest weather and fullest campgrounds, especially at popular lakeside destinations like Pymatuning and Gifford Pinchot where water activities draw families. September and early October offer ideal conditions for RV camping with comfortable temperatures in the 60s and 70s, spectacular fall foliage in mountain parks like Kooser and Black Moshannon, and significantly fewer crowds—making this the insider's favorite season.

Tips & Recommendations

  • 1Reserve through Pennsylvania's state park system online or by phone, noting that popular lakeside campgrounds fill quickly for summer weekends—book your preferred dates as soon as the reservation window opens, typically 11 months in advance for state parks.
  • 2Bring leveling blocks for mountain campgrounds where sites may have significant slope, and pack extra water hoses as some sites sit farther from hookups than standard 25-foot hoses reach.
  • 3Pennsylvania requires all RVs to display a valid registration, and out-of-state visitors should carry proof of insurance.
  • 4Consider purchasing a Pennsylvania State Parks pass if planning multiple visits, as it covers day-use fees and offers camping discounts.
