Lancaster Strausburg Pa area

We live near the Lancaster area and go week-end camping there a lot.

Beacon Hills is nice, but about twenty minutes away from Sight and Sound.

Old Mills Streams is our favorite campground in the area and is close to Sight and Sound.

We stay at Old Mill Stream Campground. This year they have decided to close from January to April 1st. If you are going in the next few weeks before the end of the month they will be open and have sites with heated water spigots. Call for reservations - oddly they do fill even at this time of the year. I am not sure what else may be open there as this had been one of the few that remained open after October.

If you are going during the Spring or summer they are all nice, for the most part and all need reservations in advance as this is a very popular area. We do prefer Old Mill Stream Campground over the others. And the owners are incredibly nice and accommodating.

We stayed at the RV park near Strasburg but I can't remember the name it was so long ago but I do remember it was really nice. It was close to the railroad museums in Strasburg which was our reason for being there.

There used to be a campground south (?) of Lancaster that was big and nice. Had to go through a guarded gate. Was owned by Philly Power and Light Co. Is it still there? And is it now called Muddy Run? Is it still nice? Thanks for any info.

Muddy Run looks like a great place
Muddy Run Park

We went to the Sight&Sound Theater in August, stayed at Country Acres Family Campground for a couple of nights. It's address is 20 Leven Road Gordonsville, PA. It's close and very nice. DW is suggesting we go to another show this spring, if we do, I'll choose Country Acres again.

Old Mill Stream beside Dutch Wonderland is nice. Open all winter, as far as I know.clicky

As far as I know that's the best one in the area. There's one out around Strasburg that might be closer for Sight and Sound, but it looks pretty dumpy from the road.
