This is camping, if you are looking a relaxing outdoor space this is it. Accommodation for my family of 6 was perfect. It gave us all what we needed in a place to stay while traveling south.

Staff was super friendly and the property had everything we needed for fun like fishing and mini golf.
The location was great for getting to everything but being somewhere quiet as well. The only thing I didn't like was that it got a little hot in the cabin and you are not allowed to put the air conditioner down past 70 degrees.
This was a great stay for a great price. Our family of 6 enjoyed the spacious cottage in a beautiful and quiet setting. We would definitely stay here again!
Hi, the staff was very helpful and friendly. My cottage was so cute and clean, very spacious. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and hope to visit again in yhe future.
Easy fun family vacation..easy 5min drive to downtown gettysburg with amazing food and small town shopping.. on site fishing fun and safe fun environment for the kids to explore
Overall the cabin was dirty, beds were uncomfortable, major issue with ants, wasn’t a fan of the shower. A couple of positives were the location and fishing at the lake. Would never stay again, but glad we gave it a try. If we go back to Gettysburg, it definitely would be at the KOA.
We had some issues at checkin with getting keys to the correct property- and due to that ultimately stayed in the wrong cabin. However, the staff was quick to get us what we needed, and very friendly and helpful. We’d stay again!
Beautiful, big campground. Kept us in a secluded area, with lots of privacy and wide open space around us, but without missing out on any amenities, or access to the battlefield or Gettysburg area attractions. Great price, great cabin, great space.
Very convenient location with easy online check in and friendly staff. Cabin was cute and seemed clean until the ants and stink bugs appeared. Futon and bunk mattresses were not comfortable at all.
The place is really nice with friendly staff. The only issue we had was trying tontske advantage of the early check in option. I was told to call in advance, i called and was told to call the next day (day before arrival), but it would not be an issue since my cottage was vacant the day before. I called and was told I was unable to check in early and had to call the next day (day of arrival). Seemed to be some miscommunication so we just chose to leave later in day to arrive at normal check in. Besides this issue the stay was amazing, the place is awesome and conveniently located for all the areas attractions. Will definitely be back!!
Pretty cheap comparable to other places. We stayed in a cabin with three rooms. The ac is only in the living room so you have to keep your doors open if you want your room cool. Beds were a little hard but the bunk beds are not comfortable at all. They are meant for children who don’t care. I wish they supplied coffee (coffee machine only) and they didn’t have any coffee at the camp store as well which was our biggest inconvenience we had. We had a nice little fire the one night and the covered porch while it rained was very peaceful! It’s a perfect location to visit Gettysburg. Everything was a 10 minute drive or less!
We really enjoyed our stay here. The cabin was perfect for our family of 7, all the amenities of home while still being able to enjoy camping. Would stay again
