Personal Comments:
I know I only gave this a 3 rating, yet we return. It sits up on a hill and just has this great view of Amish farms. I like to sit in their sitting garden and have my coffee while watching the farmer plow, hearing the cows moo, and watching the buggies go by. Buggies drive right by the campground all day because there's an Amish hat shop at the end of the street. It's very quiet here. It's also really convenient to all the touristy Lancaster County stuff. The bicycle riding (on road, not mountain) from this campground is fantastic. While the sites are small, which is the only reason the campground got a 3, I love their location in Lancaster County.
