There are a ton of cg's in Lancaster....Spring Gulch, Hickory Run, Oak Creek, Sun Valley, Sill's, Dutch Cousins, just to name a few.

Do to the tourist nature of the area, most of the CGs are on the expensive side (>$60/night). I've been there many times, but I had a really bad experience the last time I was at Spring Gulch. People on the site two over were obnoxiously drunk and shouting with blasting loud music, even though it was during a major downpour storm. It was off-season so there weren't any other campers anywhere around us. The group was so drunk that I was concerned about my safety if I confronted them. It was too late at night to get management involved.

Correct - but all the sites closest to the stream are primitive sites.

Most of the Lancaster RV parks are nice. We like Old Mill Stream for its central location. OMS has no pool, but has a creek for fishing (no swimming). There is a small playground. It is next to an amusement park for young children. Beacon Hill is nice but no cable TV. No children allowed.

We stay at country acres twice a year for the past 5 years. Love it every time.

Lake in wood, Very clean, alot to do. Check out their website, We stayed there 3 times, had the red carpet site. A little pricey but worth it. Great pool and snack bar.

From what I remember Old Mill Stream does not have a lot of full hookup sites, especially down by the stream (which are the nice sites). The sites at the bottom are right near the stream and the cows from the adjacent farm come right up to the other side of the stream bank.

The last couple times we tried to book a site, we couldn't get in - it is very much in demand and almost always booked.

Millstream is great but sites are unique, not a lot to do "at campground" but very central location, baked goods from amish wagons Saturday morning is well worth trip though!!
