Question for fellow PA boondockers
Hello All-
Our camping truly covers the entire range from boon docking to the fanciest resorts and everywhere in between. That said, most of our long weekend trips we really like to get away and have been taking advantage of the state forrest camp sites. We live in SE PA so we have only used the Delaware state forrest system in NE PA so far. I am curious if anyone on this forum has used other systems. Specifically throughout the middle of the state from south to north. Our biggest concern is road and site size as our trailer is 35' long. In the delaware state forrest we scouted them all before camping and noted the sites we fit and those we don't. Problem is some of the areas I'm asking about are 2-4 hours from home making it tough to scout. Moon Lake is one area I'd like to try, but there are some out need Elk & Potter county as well that look great as well as southern counties near Lancaster / Gettysburg type areas. We found some nice big sites in the Delaware section, one of which is large enough for multiple campers and we go as a group. Any thoughts on areas that have a site or two and access roads large enough? Also open to NY, MD, WV, VA areas within 3-4 hour drive from Philly suburbs.
Thanks all!
