We are proud to be part of the Pennsylvania Campgrounds for Kids campaign this September! We will start with the basket raffle this weekend, and 50/50.

We are competing with campgrounds across the state to raise funds that help make camp experiences for children with cancer possible. These are safe and accessible, medically supervised experiences filled with joy, belonging, and the healing power of the outdoors, all at no cost to families.

Help us climb the leaderboard and make a real impact. Donate today and support our campground’s goal. Every gift matters.

4:18 power is back on-thank goodness!!

1:32 5:30am is estimate for looser to be back on. With that said a crew is on site now, so hopefully fingers crossed it’s not that long!! Tree limb on wires somewhere in the valley has caused this issue

11:03 this is a blown fuse at the PPL side, not the campground- hopefully this will be a “quick” fix!

10:25pm
The campground is without power at the moment- we assume it is due to the storm that just came though, but will be in touch with PPL and update you as soon as we have an ETA for the power to be restored. Thank you for your patience -
