Camping near Collinsburg, Pennsylvania
Collinsburg is a small census-designated place in Rostraver Township, Westmoreland County, in southwestern Pennsylvania about 45 minutes southeast of Pittsburgh. The area sits between the Monongahela and Youghiogheny river valleys, with easy access to I-70, the Pennsylvania Turnpike, and Route 51, making it a practical staging point for RV travellers heading into the Laurel Highlands or the Pittsburgh metro.
Campgrounds within a short drive cover a full range of styles. Madison/Pittsburgh SE KOA Journey in nearby Ruffs Dale is a highway-adjacent park with long pull-throughs geared to overnighters. Fox Den Acres Campgrounds in New Stanton is a larger seasonal park with full-hookup sites and family amenities. Wallace Trailer Sales and Court, The Blue Canoe RV Resort, and Firehouse RV Campgrounds round out the local options for longer stays and hookup camping.
Most RVers use Collinsburg as a base for day trips: whitewater and cycling in Ohiopyle State Park, Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater, and Pittsburgh's downtown, stadiums, and Kennywood amusement park.
Things to do near Collinsburg
Ohiopyle State Park is the marquee day trip. It covers roughly 20,500 acres along the Youghiogheny River Gorge and offers some of the best whitewater boating in the eastern United States, plus 27 miles of the Great Allegheny Passage rail-trail for cycling within the park. Fallingwater and Kentuck Knob, both designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, are within an hour and open for tours.
Closer to camp, families use on-site amenities such as swimming pools, stocked ponds, playgrounds, and game rooms at parks like Madison/Pittsburgh SE KOA Journey and Fox Den Acres Campgrounds. Youghiogheny River Lake, a Corps of Engineers reservoir near Confluence, adds boating, fishing, and lake swimming. Pittsburgh sits about 45 minutes northwest and adds pro sports, the zoo, museums, and Kennywood.

The prime RV window runs late spring through mid-fall. Most seasonal campgrounds in the area open in spring and close in October, and pool amenities at parks such as Madison/Pittsburgh SE KOA Journey typically run from Memorial Day through Labor Day, weather permitting. July and August bring the warmest weather and the busiest weekends; holiday weekends fill months in advance at Ohiopyle State Park and popular private parks.
Spring is cool and wet. Higher river flows on the Youghiogheny make it a strong window for whitewater rafting, though nights can still drop close to freezing in March and April. Fall brings dry, crisp days and strong hardwood colour across the Laurel Highlands, usually peaking in mid-October.
Winter is cold and cloudy with meaningful snowfall on the Allegheny Plateau. Some parks stay open year-round for hookup camping, but many nearby campgrounds close, and state-park campgrounds run on limited seasons. Always confirm dates with the operator before travel.

What a fun week we had as a family. Thank you to the owners and the communication was excellent. I was a first time RV driver so i had a few questions on how to hook everything up. When i arrived and the owners face timed me to help me figure everything out. We are already looking into our next RV trip!! Thank you

Dan’s camper was perfect for our weekend camping trip. It was clean, organized, and fit our family of 4 with plenty of room. Dan was very helpful at pick up and drop off getting everything hooked up and offloaded.

Private RV parks in the area, including Madison/Pittsburgh SE KOA Journey, Fox Den Acres Campgrounds, The Blue Canoe RV Resort, Firehouse RV Campgrounds, and Wallace Trailer Sales and Court, book directly through their own websites or by phone. KOA reservations can also be made through the KOA app; holiday weekends and monthly stays often require longer notice.
For state-park camping at Ohiopyle and other nearby DCNR parks, reservations go through the Pennsylvania State Parks portal on ReserveAmerica, or by calling 888-PA-PARKS.

What to expect on the ground
The terrain around Collinsburg is rolling and wooded, with river valleys cut into the Allegheny Plateau. Roads to campgrounds along I-70 and Route 51 handle big rigs well, though some park entrance roads in the Laurel Highlands are steep and narrow, so check operator directions for large RVs. Cell service on major carriers is generally solid across the area.
Most private parks offer full hookups, 30 and 50 amp service, Wi-Fi, and dump stations. Bathhouses and site quality vary between parks, so it is worth checking recent reviews. Summer thunderstorms are common in the afternoons, and mosquitoes appear near ponds and river bottoms, so bring repellent, rain layers, and levelling blocks for uneven wooded sites.
