The Campground at Bethel Woods

414 RV Sites, 25 Tent Sites, 60 Glamping Sites

The Campground at Bethel Woods in Swan Lake, New York, offers 414 RV sites, 25 tent sites, and 60 glamping sites on the historic grounds of the 1969 Woodstock festival, with 30 and 50-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted to 60 feet behind a gated entrance. Premier RV and car camping categories join a disc golf course, general store, and community fire pit. Four hundred fourteen back-in sites run in Premier RV and car camping categories, carrying water and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 60 feet. Plan around the hookups: sites carry water and electric but not sewer, so manage tank capacity accordingly. Twenty-five tent sites and 60 glamping sites round out the lodging. A general store, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, and portable toilets handle the practical side. Two things worth knowing: the camping price does not include concert tickets, and lawn and camping chairs are permitted in the campgrounds. A disc golf course, pond, pavilion, and community fire pit fill the grounds. The amenity set is deliberately restrained — the property exists to serve the amphitheater and the museum, not to compete with them. Pets are welcome. Guests sleep on the actual site where half a million people gathered over three days in August 1969 to define a generation's relationship to music and possibility. The Bethel Woods Center for the Arts, its museum, and its concert pavilion sit on the same ground, in the Sullivan County countryside of the Catskills. Demand tracks the concert calendar entirely. Check the schedule and reserve as early as you can for show weekends.

Wake in the Woods Aquapark & Campground

Wake in the Woods Aquapark & Campground in Lake Ariel, Pennsylvania, offers camping and cabin rentals on a private seven-acre lake with an inflatable aqua park on the water, behind a gated entrance in the Pocono Mountains. Boat docks, boat rentals, a bar, and food trucks serve families and group events on historic Lake Genero. Tent sites and cabin rentals make up the accommodations, with corporate retreat and group event infrastructure on site. A general store, boutique shop, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side, with WiFi throughout and a gated entrance controlling access. The inflatable aqua park is the signature. These are large floating structures with water slides, obstacles, and climbing features, designed to give swimmers a safe, genuinely demanding play area on open water — considerably more engaging than a pool, and the reason most families book. Boat docks, boat rentals, swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and boating fill out the water recreation, with sports courts, basketball, volleyball, horseshoes, corn hole, walking trails, hiking, a playground, pavilion, and community fire pit on land. A bar and visiting food trucks handle evenings, and the property also serves as a wedding venue. Stargazing and birding are strong across the forested acreage. Pets are welcome. Lake Ariel sits in Wayne County in the northeastern Pennsylvania lake district, where private lakes, state forest land, and ridge-and-valley terrain built the Pocono resort region's identity for Philadelphians from the nineteenth century onward. Summer is decisively the season for the aqua park. Reserve well ahead.

Shady Oaks Camping Resort

12 RV Sites, 2 Tent Sites, 1 Glamping Site

Shady Oaks Camping Resort in Plattsburgh, NY, offers 12 full-hookup RV sites, 4 tent sites, and 1 glamping site, with 20 and 30-amp service and room for rigs up to 40 feet. Sites come in two categories, back-in 30-amp and pull-thru 30-amp, both carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. Note the electrical: service is 20 and 30-amp, so a rig wired for heavier draw will need an adapter and some load management. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, a community fire pit, and recycling cover the rest. Pets are welcome. Horseshoes, corn hole, and picnicking fill the shaded grounds, with the lake and beach a short walk. Plattsburgh sits on the western shore of Lake Champlain in the North Country between the Adirondack foothills and Vermont's Green Mountains. The campground is three quarters of a mile from the City Beach. Rates for every accommodation type are on the booking page. Twelve sites near Lake Champlain in a short northern season — reserve well ahead for summer.
