With 225 site available, it is the most popular Campground in the area. Has anyone stayed there? I have been there around five times, but that was a couple of years ago. I liked the camping experence.

I stayed there for the firt time since 2007 on Wednesday. Since I was coming back late from the Blink 182 concert, and was going to Dutch Wonderland the next day, it was convienent to spend the night there.
WARNING: If you get put near the train tracks, It WILL keep you up all night, even if you are hearing impared! No one is safe from the loud noise of the freight train!

I stayed there when I was 3 years old and from what I remember it was a nice place. It would be nice to go there again since it's not that far and the place I usually go RVing is only halfway between Reading and there.

Going a little off topic, those train tracks kind of go by my house (3 miles away) and I can sometimes hear the trains.

By curiousity, what rail line is that? How do you know it goes out by your place?

I don't know the name, but one time I got bored and decided where it went. Here it goes through Lebanon, crosses over Rt. 422 a few times and goes into Reading.

Wow, that's interesting. Did you follow it on a map or something?

Getting back on topic. I've camped only once and that was back in 1997. Even though I'm not an enthusiast of camping, I heard this campground's pretty nice (except being next to the railroad tracks).

I've never been to the campground, but I have driven close to it and took a look inside. It's nice when you want a feel of the outdoors in a civilized area. I've only camped once before, and the grounds look nicer than my experience
