Campgrounds near Lime Ridge, Pennsylvania
Lime Ridge is a small census-designated place in Columbia County, in the Bloomsburg-Berwick area of northeastern Pennsylvania. It sits along the Susquehanna River in a rolling, wooded stretch of the state, with easy access to US 11 and Interstate 80. The location puts RV travelers within a short drive of private family campgrounds, riverside parks, and the northern tier's larger state parks.
Close-in private options include Deihls Camping Resort, Indian Head Campground, Springbrook Family Campground, and Whispering Pines Camping Estates. Knoebels Lake Glory Campground, tied to Knoebels Amusement Resort in nearby Elysburg, is also within easy reach and remains one of the best-known family destinations in the region.
For state-park camping, Ricketts Glen State Park lies about 30 miles north of Bloomsburg on PA 487. The 13,050-acre park spans Luzerne, Sullivan, and Columbia counties and offers lakeside sites, cabins, and deluxe cottages along Lake Jean, with the famous Falls Trail nearby.
Things to do near Lime Ridge
Knoebels Amusement Resort is the standout family draw in the area, and guests staying at Knoebels Lake Glory Campground can access the park easily. The campground has a lake for fishing, a playground, recreation fields, a game room, and a camp store.
Outdoor recreation centers on Ricketts Glen State Park, where the Falls Trail System passes 22 named waterfalls, including the 94-foot Ganoga Falls. Lake Jean supports fishing, boating, and swimming in season, with kayak and boat rentals available in summer. Winter visitors use the park for snowmobiling, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing. The Susquehanna River corridor near Lime Ridge adds paddling and shoreline fishing options for RV travelers looking to stay closer to camp.

The camping season in this part of Pennsylvania runs primarily from April through October. At Ricketts Glen, most of the 120 tent and trailer campsites operate seasonally, while a smaller number of sites remain open through winter along with the ten modern cabins, which are available year-round. The five deluxe cottages inside the campground open in mid-April and close in mid-October.
Winter access changes significantly. The Falls Trail at Ricketts Glen closes each year due to ice and hazardous conditions, with access limited to registered ice climbers and experienced hikers carrying crampons, an ice ax, rope, and a partner.
Private campgrounds in the Bloomsburg-Berwick area generally follow a spring-to-fall season, with peak demand tied to Knoebels operating weekends, summer holidays, and fall events at the amusement park. Booking well ahead of holiday weekends is advisable, since lakeside sites and cabins at Ricketts Glen fill quickly.

This was our family’s first time renting an RV after years of tent camping, and it was a great experience overall. Michael was an excellent host. He delivered the RV to our campsite, had everything set up and ready to go, and took the time to explain how everything worked. As first-time RV renters, that made the experience stress-free and much less intimidating. The RV itself was exactly what we needed for our family of four. It was spacious enough to sleep comfortably, kept us cool during the hot weather, kept us dry through the rain, and everything worked as expected. We spent most of our time outdoors and primarily used the RV for sleeping, and it was perfect for that. The only reason I’m mentioning this is so future renters know what to expect. When we first arrived, there was a noticeable odor inside the RV. As the trip went on, it seemed to be coming from the bathroom/holding tank area. When I mentioned it to Michael at pickup, he was very open about it and explained that it’s something he has to deep clean every few rentals to eliminate the smell. I appreciated his honesty, but since it’s a known issue rather than a one-time occurrence, I think it’s fair for future renters to be aware of it. Other than that, we had a fantastic experience. Michael was friendly, responsive, and easy to work with, and I wouldn’t hesitate to rent from him again

How to book campsites near Lime Ridge
Pennsylvania state park sites, including Ricketts Glen, are booked through the Pennsylvania State Parks reservation system on ReserveAmerica or by calling 888-727-2757. Reservations can be made up to 11 months in advance and must be made at least three days ahead of arrival. A limited number of first-come, first-served sites are also available, and a two-night minimum applies to summer weekend reservations.
Knoebels Lake Glory Campground takes reservations directly through Knoebels. Private campgrounds such as Deihls Camping Resort, Indian Head Campground, Springbrook Family Campground, and Whispering Pines Camping Estates typically accept reservations by phone or through their own websites, so it is best to contact each operator directly.
What to expect on-site
Site types across the area range from primitive tent pads to sites with electric and water hookups and rental cabins or cottages. Knoebels Lake Glory offers a mix of primitive and hookup sites, along with a playground, game room, camp store, restrooms with showers, drinking water, and a dump station.
At Ricketts Glen, the large Big Loop sits on a peninsula in Lake Jean with non-electric, lake-view sites, while the Small Loop offers electric or water-and-electric hookups and is the only loop that allows pets. A dump station is available, but there are no in-park full hookups at every site. PA 487 between Red Rock and the Lake Jean area is very steep, so heavy trailer units are directed to enter the park via PA 487 south from Dushore. Alcohol is prohibited in Pennsylvania state parks, and cell service in the area is often unreliable.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Lime Ridge, PA
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Lime Ridge, PA?
RV rental in Lime Ridge is affordable compared to coastal markets. On RVezy, travel trailers in the Bloomsburg and Berwick area typically start around $90 to $150 per night, Class C motorhomes run $175 to $275 per night, and larger Class A rigs sit at $250 to $400. Booking midweek between Tuesday and Thursday often saves 15 to 20 percent, and shoulder-season trips in May or late September unlock the best rates. For a cheap RV rental in Lime Ridge, filter by travel trailer and look for hosts offering delivery so you skip the tow vehicle cost. Tip: weekday rentals during Bloomsburg Fair week book up fast, so reserve early to lock in pricing.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Lime%20Ridge%2C%20PennsylvaniaWhat license do I need to rent an RV in Lime Ridge?
Great news: a regular driver's license is all you need to rent an RV in Lime Ridge, PA. Pennsylvania does not require a Commercial Driver's License (CDL) or any special RV endorsement for personal-use motorhomes or travel trailers under 26,000 pounds, which covers every rig on RVezy. You'll need to be 25 or older, and identity verification happens right through the RVezy platform when you book. Visiting from abroad? Pick up an International Driving Permit (IDP) from your home country's auto association before flying in, usually under $25. That's it. Most first-time renters are pleasantly surprised by how simple the paperwork is.
dmv.pa.gov/Driver-Services/Driver-Licensing/Pages/default.aspxWhat protection is included when I rent an RV in Lime Ridge?
Every RV rental in Lime Ridge booked through RVezy includes a renter protection plan and 24/7 roadside assistance, so you are covered from the moment you pull away. RVezy offers tiered protection plans that you select during checkout, with coverage for many damages to the vehicle including collision and certain interior incidents. Roadside help is just a phone call away if you get a flat on Route 11 or need a jump at Knoebels. This is not traditional auto insurance, but it removes the stress of worst-case scenarios. Tip: choose your protection level early so you can focus on planning the fun stuff like funnel cake stops at Knoebels.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat if I need to cancel my Lime Ridge RV trip?
Booking is low risk because RVezy sets a standard cancellation policy that applies across listings. There is a grace period right after booking, and the refund amount you receive after that depends on how far out you cancel relative to your trip start date. If a host cancels on you, RVezy will help you secure a refund or rebooking credit. Central Pennsylvania can see occasional winter storms or remnants of tropical systems in late summer, so reach out to RVezy support if extreme weather affects your trip. For full details, review the cancellation policy on the RVezy Help Center before you book.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on a Lime Ridge RV trip?
Yes, pet-friendly RV rental in Lime Ridge is easy to find on RVezy. Toggle the Pet-Friendly filter when searching and you will see rigs where dogs (and sometimes cats) are welcomed by the host. Once you are on the road, your pup will love nearby trails like the Evergreen Trail loop at Ricketts Glen State Park, and most local campgrounds including Knoebels Campground and Lake Glory Campground allow leashed pets. The Susquehanna River Walk in Bloomsburg is another quick, dog-friendly outing about 15 minutes from Lime Ridge. Tip: message the host to confirm any breed or size details so check-in is smooth from the start.
pa.gov/agencies/dcnr/recreation/things-to-do/pets-in-state-parks.htmlCan the RV be delivered to my campsite in Lime Ridge?
Yes, RV delivery in Lime Ridge is one of the best perks on RVezy and a favorite of first-time renters. Many local hosts will tow the trailer or drive the motorhome straight to your campsite at Ricketts Glen, Knoebels, or World's End State Park, set it up, level it, hook up water and electric, and walk you through every system before they leave. Delivery fees typically run a few dollars per mile round trip from the host's home base, and some hosts offer flat-rate delivery to popular campgrounds. To find it fast, use the Delivery filter on the search page. Tip: ask for delivery to Knoebels Campground if you are chasing the famous wooden coasters.
pa.gov/agencies/dcnr/recreation/where-to-go/state-parks/find-a-park/ricketts-glen-state-park.htmlHow do mileage policies work for a Lime Ridge RV rental?
Mileage is straightforward on RVezy, and many Lime Ridge hosts offer generous packages or even RV rental with unlimited mileage on weekly trips. Most listings include 100 to 150 free miles per day, with additional miles billed at a per-mile rate set by the host. That is plenty for a typical loop, since Ricketts Glen is just 30 miles north, Knoebels Amusement Resort is about 15 miles south, and Williamsport is roughly 50 miles west. For longer adventures like a Pocono swing, look for unlimited-mileage listings or ask the host for a custom package. Tip: map your full route before booking so you can match the right mileage plan to your itinerary.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Lime%20Ridge%2C%20PennsylvaniaWhere are the best campgrounds near Lime Ridge, PA?
You've got fantastic options within an hour of Lime Ridge. Ricketts Glen State Park (about 30 minutes north) is famous for its 21-waterfall Falls Trail and has 120 family campsites with electric hookups. Knoebels Campground in Elysburg (20 minutes south) sits right beside the free-admission amusement park and offers full-hookup RV sites. Lake Glory Campground in Bloomsburg is a quick 15-minute drive with full hookups and a swimming lake. World's End State Park in Sullivan County (about an hour north) delivers dramatic Loyalsock Creek scenery. For something quieter, Red Rock Mountain Campground near Benton is a hidden gem. Pro tip: reserve Ricketts Glen 11 months out for summer weekends, it sells out fast.
pa.gov/agencies/dcnr/recreation/what-to-do/stay-overnight/rv-and-tent-campsites/camping-locations-map.htmlWhen is the best time of year for an RV trip from Lime Ridge?
Late May through mid-October is prime time for RV camping in Lime Ridge, with the absolute sweet spot being September and early October when the Susquehanna Valley foliage explodes in red, orange, and gold. Summer highs sit in the low 80s Fahrenheit, nights cool to the low 60s, and humidity is manageable compared to farther south. Spring brings wildflowers along the Falls Trail at Ricketts Glen, while autumn is unbeatable for scenic drives along Route 487. Winters get cold (often in the 20s to low 30s with snow), so most hosts pause bookings December through March. Pro tip: book the last week of September for peak leaf-peeping plus Bloomsburg Fair energy.
weather.gov/ctp/I've never rented an RV before. Will I be okay driving around Lime Ridge?
You're going to do great, especially because Lime Ridge sits in a rural pocket of Columbia County with wide, low-traffic roads that are perfect for first time renting an RV. Every RVezy host gives you a full walkthrough at pickup covering the generator, slide-outs, tanks, leveling, and hookups, and you can text them anytime during your trip. Stick to Route 11 and I-80 for stress-free driving, and avoid narrow back roads near Catawissa Mountain if you're in a Class A. Class B campervans and small Class C motorhomes are popular first-timer picks. Pro tip: do a parking lot practice loop at the Bloomsburg Town Park before heading to camp.
penndot.pa.gov/TravelInPA/Pages/default.aspxWhat happens if something breaks down during my Lime Ridge RV trip?
You are never on your own. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the protection plan, so a flat tire on Route 42, a dead battery at Ricketts Glen, or a tow off I-80 is just one phone call away. Your host is also a quick text away for questions about quirks specific to their rig, like how the awning retracts or where the fuse panel hides. RVezy customer support is reachable before, during, and after your trip. Tip: save the roadside assistance number to your phone before pickup, and snap a photo of your RV's VIN and plate for faster service.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat road trips can I take from Lime Ridge, PA?
Lime Ridge is a great launch pad for an RV road trip. Niagara Falls is about 280 miles northwest (a scenic drive up Route 15), the Pocono Mountains sit just 80 miles east, and Gettysburg is roughly 130 miles south for a Civil War history loop. You are also about 165 miles from Philadelphia and 195 miles from Pittsburgh. Heading north into New York's Finger Lakes is around 150 miles. Some hosts allow travel to Canada with advance notice and proper documentation, so message before booking. Travel to Mexico is not permitted on RVezy rentals. Tip: build in a stop at Pine Creek Gorge, Pennsylvania's Grand Canyon, about two hours away.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039340074-Insurance-coverage-validityWhat should I budget for fuel on a Lime Ridge RV trip?
Fuel is one of the bigger line items on any motorhome rental in Lime Ridge, so it helps to plan ahead. Pennsylvania gas prices typically run about $3.40 to $3.80 per gallon, slightly above the national average due to state fuel taxes. Class B campervans get 18 to 22 miles per gallon (mpg), Class C motorhomes average 8 to 12 mpg, and Class A rigs run 6 to 10 mpg. Diesel pull-throughs in Bloomsburg and Berwick make refueling easy. Pro tip: download GasBuddy and fuel up at the Pilot in Bloomsburg off I-80, which usually has the lowest diesel prices in Columbia County and easy big-rig access.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far in advance should I book a campground near Lime Ridge?
Pennsylvania State Park campsites can be reserved up to 11 months in advance through the official Pennsylvania State Parks reservation system, and you will want to use every bit of that window for Ricketts Glen and World's End during summer weekends and fall foliage. Knoebels Campground opens reservations early in the year and fills quickly for Bloomsburg Fair week (late September) and July 4th. Private campgrounds like Lake Glory typically take bookings several months out. Tip: if you missed the window, weekday arrivals (Sunday through Wednesday) almost always have openings, even at the most popular spots, and the trails are blissfully quiet.
pennsylvaniastateparks.reserveamerica.com/What are driving conditions like around Lime Ridge?
Driving an RV around Lime Ridge is genuinely relaxing compared to big-city rentals. You're surrounded by gentle Susquehanna River valleys with mostly two-lane state roads and easy access to Interstate 80 just 10 minutes north. Watch for steep, winding sections on Route 487 climbing toward Ricketts Glen and a few low-clearance railroad bridges in downtown Berwick (stick to Route 11 instead). Winter brings snow and occasional ice from December through March, so most RV trips happen May through October. Deer are active at dawn and dusk year-round, especially near Catawissa. Pro tip: use PennDOT's 511PA app for real-time traffic, construction, and weather alerts before any leg of your drive.
511pa.com/What hookups and amenities can I expect at campgrounds near Lime Ridge?
Local campgrounds offer a great mix of options. Knoebels and Lake Glory have full hookups (water, sewer, and 30/50 amp electric), making them ideal for larger motorhomes. Ricketts Glen State Park offers electric hookups at most sites plus a centralized dump station and potable water fill near the campground entrance. World's End and other DCNR parks generally have non-hookup sites with shared water spigots and a dump station. Most local campgrounds include hot showers, flush toilets, laundry, and Wi-Fi at the office. Pro tip: top off fresh water at the Ricketts Glen dump station before heading deeper into the Endless Mountains, where fill points get scarce.
pa.gov/agencies/dcnr/recreation/what-to-do/stay-overnight/rv-and-tent-campsites.htmlWhat's included inside the RVs available in Lime Ridge?
RV rentals in Lime Ridge come loaded for a comfortable trip. Expect a full kitchen with a propane stove, microwave, refrigerator-freezer, and cookware; a bathroom with a toilet and shower; sleeping for anywhere from 2 to 10 depending on size; air conditioning and a furnace; and seatbelts for everyone traveling on the road. Most rigs also include a TV, Bluetooth stereo, and an awning, and many hosts add a generator for off-grid stays at World's End or dispersed sites in Loyalsock State Forest. Wi-Fi hotspots are sometimes offered as an add-on. Pro tip: check the listing's sleep count and seatbelt count separately, since they aren't always the same number.
pa.gov/agencies/dcnr/recreation/what-to-do/stay-overnight/rv-and-tent-campsites.htmlWhat add-ons and pickup options can I choose for a Lime Ridge rental?
Hosts in Lime Ridge make customization easy. Popular add-ons include bedding and linen packages ($25 to $75), kitchen kits with pots, plates, and utensils ($25 to $50), camp chairs and outdoor mats, generators for dry camping, bike racks, and propane refills. Most pickups happen at the host's home in Lime Ridge, Bloomsburg, Berwick, or Mifflinville, with a 30 to 60 minute walkthrough included free. Many hosts also offer delivery to Knoebels, Ricketts Glen, or your driveway for a per-mile fee. Mileage policies vary by listing, so look for unlimited or generous packages on weekly bookings. Pro tip: bundle bedding plus a kitchen kit when you fly in, so you can shop only for groceries.
visitpa.com/region/pennsylvania-wildsHow does payment and the security deposit work on RVezy?
Payment is simple and secure: you pay through RVezy with a credit or debit card when you book, and funds are processed through the platform so hosts cannot charge you outside of it. A refundable security deposit is placed as a hold on your card before pickup and released after the trip wraps up, assuming no damage or extra cleaning is needed. The deposit amount varies by listing and RV class. To avoid surprises, do a video walkaround with your host at pickup and dropoff. Tip: pay with a credit card that offers fraud protection and trip rewards to maximize peace of mind and points.
