Hey Folks, headed to up state NY from Tidewater, VA in a couple of weeks and we're looking for a campground in PA close to I-81 to spend the night. Something in the Harrisonburg/Carlisle area.
Any suggestions ?

Thanks,
Sam

I don't think you will regret it, we stay there usually on our way home from Florida...it's come along way since they first converted to KOA and each year it gets better and better and it's a quick on and off.

You might also consider Caledonia State Park near Chambersburg, which is southwest of Carlisle. It's maybe 8-10 miles off Rte. 81, but worth a visit if you like state parks. It's a direct shot east on Rte. 30 right to the park. Very easy.

I believe that would be the JONESTOWN / HERSHEY NE KOA.

You believe correctly... ๐Ÿ˜‰

And if you don't mind driving a little farther off the exit, Twin Grove RV Resort is a much nicer park.

We like to use GOOGLE MAPS on-line and put 'RV CAMPGROUND' in the search form. This shows the various camp grounds along the route you are looking at... Mouse click on the camp ground found for additional info. Some have reviews listed as well...

If you select SAT VIEW you can zoom down on the campground and see its layout...
