Back-Achers Campsites

12 RV Sites, 13 Tent Sites

Back-Achers Campsites in Himrod, NY, offers 12 RV sites and 13 tent sites, with 30-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 40 feet. Sites are standard back-ins carrying water and electric with a fire pit and picnic table. There's no sewer at the site, so plan on the on-site dump station. Note the electrical: this is a 30-amp campground throughout, so a rig wired for heavier service will need an adapter and some load management, and the 40-foot maximum keeps it to mid-size rigs. A bathhouse with showers, firewood, propane fills and exchange, a snack bar, and a pavilion cover the essentials, and pets are welcome with a playground on the grounds. Walking trails, horseshoes, picnicking, swimming, and boating on the lake fill the days, with the tent sites outnumbering the RV sites — this is a campground first and an RV park second. Himrod sits on the secluded western shore of Seneca Lake, the largest and deepest of the Finger Lakes at 36 miles long, in the heart of Finger Lakes wine country. Rates for sites and tent spots are on the booking page. Summer weekends on Seneca book early.

The campground is rated big rig friendly within its 40-foot limit. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, a dump station, and a pavilion cover the essentials. Pets are welcome.

Seventy-two back-in sites run in full hookup 20/30-amp and full hookup 20/30/50-amp categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 75 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Pick the tier that matches your rig's service, and note that 75 feet accommodates a long coach with a tow. Thirty-one cabins — including the six-person Cardinal Inn — and three tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, restrooms, and golf cart rentals handle the practical side. Check-in is 3pm and checkout 11am, and day passes run $10 per person. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with mini-golf, a jumping pillow, volleyball, basketball, horseshoes, corn hole, a pond, playground, and live music filling the rest. Boating and fishing run nearby, and a state park is close. Pets are welcome. The PA Wilds is a 12,000-square-mile expanse of north-central wilderness where elk graze open meadows at dusk, the Pine Creek Gorge drops 1,000 feet through what is sometimes called Pennsylvania's Grand Canyon, and the night sky is dark enough to have earned one of the most significant dark sky designations in the eastern United States. Cherry Springs State Park is the destination for that. Summer and fall foliage drive demand. Reserve well ahead.

57 RV Sites, 2 Cabins, 3 Tent Sites

The waterfront categories put you on the creek and are worth requesting early; confirm your tier, as the water-and-electric categories do not carry sewer at the site. Two cabins, including a four-person unit, and three tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with the creek supporting swimming, fishing, canoeing, and kayaking. A pond, playground, basketball, and biking fill the grounds, with planned activities through the season, productive birding, and a casino nearby. Pets are welcome.

Grand Canyon Motel Resort & Campground

10 RV Sites, 5 Tent Sites

Grand Canyon Motel Resort and Campground in Wellsboro, Pennsylvania, offers 10 full-hookup back-in RV sites and five tent sites one mile from the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet. A single water-electric-sewer back-in category joins a hot tub, sauna, on-site dining, arcade, and billiards. Ten back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 40 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. One consistent category and no guesswork; note the 40-foot cap before bringing a larger rig. Five tent sites and motel rooms round out the lodging, which gives groups a genuine mix of options. A dump station, restrooms, showers, firewood, and on-site dining handle the practical side. A hot tub and sauna anchor the property, with an arcade, billiards, and shuffleboard filling the rest. Pets are welcome. One mile from the canyon rim is the entire proposition and no other property matches it. Pine Creek Gorge runs about 47 miles through the Tioga State Forest with walls dropping roughly 1,450 feet, and Leonard Harrison State Park's overlook — the classic viewpoint — is right there. The Pine Creek Rail Trail runs 62 miles along the gorge floor and is one of the best rail-trails in the country for cycling, with outfitters in Wellsboro running shuttles and rentals. Whitewater season on Pine Creek is short and comes in spring. Wellsboro itself is worth the stop, with gas-lit streets and a preserved downtown. Fall foliage is the peak here and fills the area — the gorge in October is genuinely spectacular. Reserve well ahead for September and October, and for summer weekends.

Route 6 Campground

Route 6 Campground in Gaines, Pennsylvania, offers full-hookup RV sites, cabin rentals, and tent spaces along a peaceful pond on the historic Route 6 corridor in Tioga County. A general store, boutique shop, on-site dining, and a pavilion serve guests exploring the Pennsylvania Wilds. Full-hookup RV sites carry water, sewer, and electric on well-maintained grounds, with cabin rentals and tent spaces rounding out the accommodations. A general store, boutique shop, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side, with WiFi throughout and on-site dining for meals. Pets are welcome. The pond anchors the setting, with fishing from the water and walking trails, hiking, biking, a playground, and a pavilion across the grounds. A golf course and state park are nearby. The property is deliberately unhurried, which suits the corridor it sits on. Pennsylvania Route 6 is often called the Grand Army of the Republic Highway and is recognized as one of the state's most scenic byways, running through a landscape of ridges, valleys, and the deeply forested terrain of the Pennsylvania Wilds. Pennsylvania's Grand Canyon — the Pine Creek Gorge — is the region's headline attraction, with state forest wilderness and genuinely unspoiled rural country throughout. The campground serves the northern tier season. Summer hiking and paddling on Pine Creek and October foliage in the Wilds drive the heaviest demand, with the Grand Canyon overlooks drawing visitors from across the Northeast in fall. Reserve well ahead for foliage weekends.

Wake in the Woods Aquapark & Campground

Wake in the Woods Aquapark & Campground in Lake Ariel, Pennsylvania, offers camping and cabin rentals on a private seven-acre lake with an inflatable aqua park on the water, behind a gated entrance in the Pocono Mountains. Boat docks, boat rentals, a bar, and food trucks serve families and group events on historic Lake Genero. Tent sites and cabin rentals make up the accommodations, with corporate retreat and group event infrastructure on site. A general store, boutique shop, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side, with WiFi throughout and a gated entrance controlling access. The inflatable aqua park is the signature. These are large floating structures with water slides, obstacles, and climbing features, designed to give swimmers a safe, genuinely demanding play area on open water — considerably more engaging than a pool, and the reason most families book. Boat docks, boat rentals, swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and boating fill out the water recreation, with sports courts, basketball, volleyball, horseshoes, corn hole, walking trails, hiking, a playground, pavilion, and community fire pit on land. A bar and visiting food trucks handle evenings, and the property also serves as a wedding venue. Stargazing and birding are strong across the forested acreage. Pets are welcome. Lake Ariel sits in Wayne County in the northeastern Pennsylvania lake district, where private lakes, state forest land, and ridge-and-valley terrain built the Pocono resort region's identity for Philadelphians from the nineteenth century onward. Summer is decisively the season for the aqua park. Reserve well ahead.

The Campground at Bethel Woods

414 RV Sites, 25 Tent Sites, 60 Glamping Sites

The Campground at Bethel Woods in Swan Lake, New York, offers 414 RV sites, 25 tent sites, and 60 glamping sites on the historic grounds of the 1969 Woodstock festival, with 30 and 50-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted to 60 feet behind a gated entrance. Premier RV and car camping categories join a disc golf course, general store, and community fire pit. Four hundred fourteen back-in sites run in Premier RV and car camping categories, carrying water and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 60 feet. Plan around the hookups: sites carry water and electric but not sewer, so manage tank capacity accordingly. Twenty-five tent sites and 60 glamping sites round out the lodging. A general store, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, and portable toilets handle the practical side. Two things worth knowing: the camping price does not include concert tickets, and lawn and camping chairs are permitted in the campgrounds. A disc golf course, pond, pavilion, and community fire pit fill the grounds. The amenity set is deliberately restrained — the property exists to serve the amphitheater and the museum, not to compete with them. Pets are welcome. Guests sleep on the actual site where half a million people gathered over three days in August 1969 to define a generation's relationship to music and possibility. The Bethel Woods Center for the Arts, its museum, and its concert pavilion sit on the same ground, in the Sullivan County countryside of the Catskills. Demand tracks the concert calendar entirely. Check the schedule and reserve as early as you can for show weekends.
