Campgrounds near Edgewood, Pennsylvania
Edgewood is a small census-designated place in Coal Township, Northumberland County, sitting just west of Shamokin in the ridges of central Pennsylvania. RV renters use the area as a base for amusement park trips, state park hikes, and lake days, with a mix of family resort campgrounds and quieter rural parks close at hand.
The most recognizable option nearby is Knoebels Resort and Campground in Elysburg, the family-owned amusement resort and campground that opened in 1926 and is the largest free-admission park in the United States. Other close-in choices include J and D Campgrounds, Knoebels Lake Glory Campground, Springbrook Family Campground, and Camp-A-While, giving renters a range from full-service resort sites to smaller wooded parks.
Public land is also within reach. Ricketts Glen State Park, one of the most scenic areas in Pennsylvania, covers 13,050 acres across Luzerne, Sullivan, and Columbia counties and harbors the Glens Natural Area, a National Natural Landmark, making it a common day trip or overnight extension for RV travelers based near Edgewood.
Things to do near Edgewood
The signature draw is Knoebels itself. The resort features more than 100 rides and attractions, a historic carousel, Crystal Pool, a golf course, arcade games, dining, and gift shops, and staying at Knoebels Resort and Campground or Knoebels Lake Glory Campground puts families within walking or short-shuttle distance of the rides.
For outdoor recreation, Ricketts Glen State Park is the standout. Its Falls Trail system links 22 named waterfalls through old-growth forest, and the park adds horseback riding, fishing, and boating on 245-acre Lake Jean, plus winter options like snowmobiling, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing. The Susquehanna River, small-town shops in Bloomsburg, and country back roads round out the options for slower days between park visits.

Camping season in this part of Pennsylvania runs primarily from spring through fall. Knoebels Resort and Campground operates from late April through October, matching the amusement park calendar, and most private parks nearby follow a similar warm-season schedule. Summer weekends align with peak amusement park crowds, so RV renters targeting Knoebels should plan far ahead.
State park lodging has a slightly different rhythm. Ricketts Glen has 120 tent and trailer sites; most operate April through December, while a small number stay open year round for winter camping, and the deluxe cottages remain available year round with reservations up to 11 months out.
Winter brings a different experience. Every winter the Falls Trail closes due to ice and hazardous conditions, and only registered ice climbers and experienced hikers with proper equipment are allowed on the trail, so cold-weather trips lean toward snow sports, cabins, and short outings rather than full RV touring.

Host is accomadating & honest. This is my 2nd year renting from him. I have no complaints & I appreciate his service. We treat this camper as our own & leave it in the manner it was left to us. Mike dropped off, set up & tore down & retrieved at conclusion of our trip. Mike & his Wife are good people. I look forward to next year!
Theresa N. - Jul 2025
This is a gorgeous camper that we used for a family reunion. It had everything we needed. The delivery option allowed us to show up and leave when we wanted to go home. Mike was an excellent host and answered any questions we had from start to finish. I would definitely rent from him again.

Booking and reservations
Private resort campgrounds near Edgewood book up early. Knoebels sites, in particular, are in high demand during the operating season, and reservations for peak summer weekends should be arranged many months ahead. Booking an RV rental with delivery to the site is a common way to secure a spot without towing.
State park stays go through the Pennsylvania DCNR system on ReserveAmerica, or by calling toll-free 888-PA-PARKS (888-727-2757), from 7:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M., Monday to Saturday. For Ricketts Glen specifically, reservations must be made at least 3 days ahead of arrival and can be made up to 11 months in advance, and holiday weekends and lakefront sites typically fill the moment the window opens.
What to expect on site
Sites in this region skew rustic and wooded rather than paved and manicured. At Knoebels, campers can choose from tent sites, RV sites with electric service, or rustic cabins, and amenities include bathhouses, coin-operated laundry, dump stations, picnic tables, fire rings, grills, a playground, and a pool. Water is handled centrally through filling stations near the entrance rather than at individual sites.
Rig size matters. Interior roads at Knoebels are tight, and long trailers with heavy tow vehicles are a tough fit. At Ricketts Glen, access is more demanding still: the campground sits within a 13,050-acre state park reached by a steep two-mile climb on an 18 percent grade that challenges larger RVs, so renters of big Class A or long fifth-wheel units should confirm access before booking.
