Some interesting comments here. I wonder if some of it has to do with where you are from - as in, east coast, not a lot of solitary camping opportunities from what I hear. I grew up in the west, where I can drive a few miles out of town, find a road and camp.
I have my friends that I camp with remotely. I also camp solo remotely. Sometimes, when necessary, I will camp in a campground, but I've found they are generally too crowded and noisy, which is not what I am after when camping. I don't mind meeting people when I am in these kinds of campgrounds, and socializing, but when it's over I want my space back.
The description of State Parks in PA reminds of a recent stop at an AZ State Park - Patagonia Lake. It is a very popular park and I camped there as it was a place in the state I've never been. Kids playing noisily all day, not really a problem, full hookups, so many people had string lights out all over the place and just left them on all night long. Don't get that. It's not Christmas, and even then I turn my lights off at midnight.
