If you opt to stay at this campground let me know and I can assist with your travel details & logistics. If you stay a few days in this area you can click here for other local attractions. Hershey Park could be a fun day for the kids.
While I wholeheartedly agree that HersheyPark is great fun for the kids (of whatever age), I wouldn't exactly call it a local attraction to Philly!
Knoebels is also a great amusement park, a little smaller and a little more traditionally oriented. Both HersheyPark and Knoebels have campgrounds associated with them, too.
Thanks for sharing your opinion.
The campground I suggested is in Hatfield which is located 35 miles north of Philadelphia. From Hatfield to Hershey Park is a 105 minute drive...door to door via the Pennsylvania Turnpike. The Oak Grove Campground is located about 3 miles from the Pennsylvania Turnpike.
The OP wanted a campground near Philly with an easy train commute and Oak Grove definitely meets that criteria.
