The main camping season in this part of Pennsylvania runs spring through fall. At Gifford Pinchot the campground is open from the beginning of April through the end of October, when the full range of facilities is typically available. Private parks such as Cedar Lake operate year-round, though pools and organized activities are seasonal.
Summer is peak. Expect humidity, afternoon thunderstorms, and busy weekends around Memorial Day, July 4, and Labor Day. Campers may stay in a state park campground up to 14 consecutive nights from Memorial Day to Labor Day, and up to 21 consecutive nights during the remainder of the camping season. Fall brings cooler nights, lower humidity, and harvest-festival weekends that fill nearby sites early.
Winter operations are limited. From late autumn through winter, hunting is permitted in designated areas at Gifford Pinchot, and hikers are advised to wear fluorescent colors.

Daniel was a fantastic host that came in the clutch for us when another host unexpectedly cancelled on us. The camper was exactly what was advertised, pricing was awesome, clean, and communication was on point! I would recommend Daniel and his camper to anyone looking to rent for their next adventure!
Daniel B. - Oct 2025
This RV was as advertised. It was setup at our campsite when we arrived at Camp Swatara. I would say Daniel is a great host.

Sandy went above and beyond. Leading up to the rental dates she was in communication, making sure we were on the same page. I opted for delivery rather than pickup, and she made sure the rv was delivered early so we could fully enjoy the rental dates. We had a normal issue w the AC (the unit froze) but she was very communicative and helpful until the problem was solved (she suggested to turn it to fan in case the unit was frozen, and it quickly thawed). Always very sweet and courteous, always responsive. My four year old son loved the trailer, was very upset to understand that we had to give it back 😂. Thanks, Sandy!

Sandy went out of her way to make sure my family was well accommodated during our use of her camper!
