RV camping near Lemoyne, Pennsylvania
Lemoyne sits on the West Shore of the Susquehanna River, directly across from Harrisburg in Cumberland County. The location puts RV travelers within a short drive of Pennsylvania's state capital, Hershey, Gettysburg, and the northern edge of Lancaster County's Amish farmland, making it a practical hub for a multi-stop trip rather than a single-destination stay.
Campground options in the area range from full-hookup private parks to state park sites. Harrisburg East Campground is open all year and sits minutes off the beltway, positioned as a convenient stop for travelers exploring south-central Pennsylvania from the state capital area. Gifford Pinchot State Park, southwest of Lemoyne in York County, offers a more traditional state park setting on Pinchot Lake with wooded loops, cabins, yurts, and camping cottages. Hersheypark Camping Resort is the closest option to the Hershey attractions, and Camp Hebron and King's Campground add smaller, quieter alternatives in the surrounding countryside.
Most trips launched from Lemoyne combine one urban or theme park day with a lake or trail day, so choosing between a full-hookup private park and a state park often comes down to whether hookups or shoreline access matters more.
Things to do near Lemoyne
Hersheypark, ZooAmerica, and Hershey's Chocolate World are the biggest family draws, all within roughly a half-hour drive east. Gettysburg National Military Park lies about 40 minutes southwest and works as a full-day trip with driving tours, the visitor center museum, and ranger programs. In Harrisburg itself, the State Capitol, Riverfront Park, and the State Museum of Pennsylvania sit just across the river from Lemoyne.
For outdoor days, Gifford Pinchot State Park has a 340-acre lake with a swim beach, boat rentals, and more than 18 miles of trails, including the roughly 8.5-mile Lakeside Trail that circles the water. The Appalachian Trail crosses ridges north of the city, and the Capital Area Greenbelt offers a paved loop suited to bikes and strollers.
Rainy-day backups include the Whitaker Center in Harrisburg and the antique shops in Boiling Springs and Carlisle.

The main RV season around Lemoyne runs from mid-April through late October. State park campgrounds, including Gifford Pinchot, typically open on the second Friday in April and run through the end of October, with a limited number of sites available in cold-weather months at select parks. Summer weekends fill quickly, especially those tied to Hersheypark operating days and the Fourth of July, so mid-week arrivals are easier to book.
Fall is the local sweet spot. Foliage in the surrounding ridges usually peaks in mid to late October, and cooler days pair well with Gettysburg and Appalachian Trail day hikes. Hersheypark shifts to its Halloween and holiday events, which extend campground demand into November.
Winter camping options are limited but not zero. Harrisburg East Campground stays open all year and functions as a practical winter break stop for travelers moving through south-central Pennsylvania. Spring brings changeable rain and occasional river flooding along the Susquehanna, so checking site conditions before arrival is worthwhile.

How to book campgrounds near Lemoyne
Pennsylvania state park sites, including Gifford Pinchot State Park, are booked through the Pennsylvania State Parks and Forests reservation system. Sites become available up to 11 months in advance, released at noon Eastern Time, and popular summer weekends at lake parks are typically claimed within the first days of the booking window opening. A two-night minimum stay usually applies on summer weekends, with longer minimums on holiday weekends.
Private parks handle their own reservations. Hersheypark Camping Resort books directly through the Hersheypark website and often requires longer minimum stays during peak park operating weekends. Harrisburg East Campground takes reservations by phone and through its own website, and its office is open year-round with holiday closures on New Year's Day, Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.
For holiday weekends and any dates overlapping Hersheypark's summer or Candylane holiday events, booking eight or more weeks out is prudent.
What to expect on the ground
Lemoyne itself is a small West Shore borough with grocery stores, fuel, and RV service options within a few minutes' drive, so restocking mid-trip is straightforward. Interstate access via I-83 and the Pennsylvania Turnpike is close, which also means highway noise carries into some sites near the corridor.
Sites vary widely. Private parks in the area generally offer full hookups on gravel pads, with pull-throughs sized for larger rigs, while Gifford Pinchot State Park offers a mix of full-hookup, water and electric, and primitive sites arranged around Pinchot Lake. Cell coverage is generally reliable across the region on major carriers.
The outdoor pool at Harrisburg East Campground runs from Memorial Day to September 15, with pool hours matching office hours. Expect biting insects near lake shorelines in June and July, and pack layers for the shoulder seasons when overnight temperatures can drop sharply.
