| Great family park but needs maintenance
We stayed at the campground middle of June 2015 for about a week in our motor home. The kids had a blast and the atmosphere was great for young folks. As adults, without kids, we found the staff to be very nice and cooperative. The reason for the two star rating is because the restrooms were filthy (bugs alive and dead) on the floor, toilets and counters and the trash bins were overflowing, sometime for days. We also felt the grounds were in need of an upgrade. Overall a great setting but the management needs to reinvest in the upkeep and sanitation of the campground.
| Absolutely Fantastic Time, Will Be Back
We had an absolutely WONDERFUL 2 weeks at the Gettysburg Farm RV Campground. There were many, very large, grassy sites with plenty of room to spread out. Full shade was available. If you don't need 50amp, or a sewer hookup (but free honey wagon), there is a huge long side of the campground right on the river that you can practically have to yourself during the week and some light weekends. There is also a great walking trail around the farm fields. Very family oriented with all kinds of animals, and weekend fun, but also still quiet and relaxing. About 40% seasonal but that is perfect. The campground wi-fi wasn't too good, but they are looking into getting better service. We just used our Verizon hot spot, and while ATT coverage was spotty, we were still able to do our telecommute jobs. Two downsides: 1) The shower houses need a little updating. Especially the one by the 30amp/no sewer side. 2) The laundry. Oh dear god the laundry. The 30 min wash load takes about 60+ minutes. Apparently the water pressure into the washers is horrible. Dryers were great though. :) NEITHER of these two downsides affected our stay at all. Just mentioning for the sake of information. Cannot wait to go back and spend 3 weeks next time. Absolutely a great campground, with friendly staff, and even friendlier goats. :)
| Crowded and pricey
Although this park is in a nice country setting the spots are pretty close together and are first come first serve with a reservation. Sites are not assigned. This is a Thousand Trails Park of which we are not members so they may have added perks. Bathrooms leave a bit to be desired. But if you have kids they have farm animals, a pool and a mini golf that could use some TLC. Poor internet.
