Back-Achers Campsites

12 RV Sites, 13 Tent Sites

Back-Achers Campsites in Himrod, NY, offers 12 RV sites and 13 tent sites, with 30-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 40 feet. Sites are standard back-ins carrying water and electric with a fire pit and picnic table. There's no sewer at the site, so plan on the on-site dump station. Note the electrical: this is a 30-amp campground throughout, so a rig wired for heavier service will need an adapter and some load management, and the 40-foot maximum keeps it to mid-size rigs. A bathhouse with showers, firewood, propane fills and exchange, a snack bar, and a pavilion cover the essentials, and pets are welcome with a playground on the grounds. Walking trails, horseshoes, picnicking, swimming, and boating on the lake fill the days, with the tent sites outnumbering the RV sites — this is a campground first and an RV park second. Himrod sits on the secluded western shore of Seneca Lake, the largest and deepest of the Finger Lakes at 36 miles long, in the heart of Finger Lakes wine country. Rates for sites and tent spots are on the booking page. Summer weekends on Seneca book early.

Route 6 Campground

Route 6 Campground in Gaines, Pennsylvania, offers full-hookup RV sites, cabin rentals, and tent spaces along a peaceful pond on the historic Route 6 corridor in Tioga County. A general store, boutique shop, on-site dining, and a pavilion serve guests exploring the Pennsylvania Wilds. Full-hookup RV sites carry water, sewer, and electric on well-maintained grounds, with cabin rentals and tent spaces rounding out the accommodations. A general store, boutique shop, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side, with WiFi throughout and on-site dining for meals. Pets are welcome. The pond anchors the setting, with fishing from the water and walking trails, hiking, biking, a playground, and a pavilion across the grounds. A golf course and state park are nearby. The property is deliberately unhurried, which suits the corridor it sits on. Pennsylvania Route 6 is often called the Grand Army of the Republic Highway and is recognized as one of the state's most scenic byways, running through a landscape of ridges, valleys, and the deeply forested terrain of the Pennsylvania Wilds. Pennsylvania's Grand Canyon — the Pine Creek Gorge — is the region's headline attraction, with state forest wilderness and genuinely unspoiled rural country throughout. The campground serves the northern tier season. Summer hiking and paddling on Pine Creek and October foliage in the Wilds drive the heaviest demand, with the Grand Canyon overlooks drawing visitors from across the Northeast in fall. Reserve well ahead for foliage weekends.

Grand Canyon Motel Resort & Campground

10 RV Sites, 5 Tent Sites

Grand Canyon Motel Resort and Campground in Wellsboro, Pennsylvania, offers 10 full-hookup back-in RV sites and five tent sites one mile from the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet. A single water-electric-sewer back-in category joins a hot tub, sauna, on-site dining, arcade, and billiards. Ten back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 40 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. One consistent category and no guesswork; note the 40-foot cap before bringing a larger rig. Five tent sites and motel rooms round out the lodging, which gives groups a genuine mix of options. A dump station, restrooms, showers, firewood, and on-site dining handle the practical side. A hot tub and sauna anchor the property, with an arcade, billiards, and shuffleboard filling the rest. Pets are welcome. One mile from the canyon rim is the entire proposition and no other property matches it. Pine Creek Gorge runs about 47 miles through the Tioga State Forest with walls dropping roughly 1,450 feet, and Leonard Harrison State Park's overlook — the classic viewpoint — is right there. The Pine Creek Rail Trail runs 62 miles along the gorge floor and is one of the best rail-trails in the country for cycling, with outfitters in Wellsboro running shuttles and rentals. Whitewater season on Pine Creek is short and comes in spring. Wellsboro itself is worth the stop, with gas-lit streets and a preserved downtown. Fall foliage is the peak here and fills the area — the gorge in October is genuinely spectacular. Reserve well ahead for September and October, and for summer weekends.

Hidden Lakes Family Campground

28 RV Sites, 4 Tent Sites

Hidden Lakes Family Campground in Montville, OH, offers 28 RV sites and 4 tent sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service. Sites come in five categories — back-in 30-amp, back-in 50/30-amp, lakeside back-in 50/30-amp, pull-thru 30-amp, and pull-thru 50/30-amp — each carrying water and electric with a fire pit and picnic table. There's no sewer at the site, so plan on the on-site dump station. Maximum rig length isn't reliably published, so call with your dimensions before booking. The campground is gated, with a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, and a recreation center. Check-in runs 2pm to 6pm with a noon checkout, and late arrivals can't always be accommodated and may incur an additional fee. Pets are welcome. An outdoor pool, a beach, a pavilion, a playground, basketball, horseshoes, and natural lakes fill the grounds, with swimming, fishing, kayaking, boating, stargazing, and themed event weekends through the season. Montville sits in Geauga County between Ohio's Lake Erie wine country and the outer suburbs of Cleveland. Rates for sites and tent spots are on the booking page. Note the check-in window before you plan a long driving day.

Woodland Park

3 RV Sites, 10 Tent Sites

Woodland Park in Sauble Beach, Ontario, offers three full-hookup RV sites and 10 tent sites a short walk from Lake Huron, with 30-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet behind a gated entrance. Back-in and pull-through categories join a beach, boat ramp, boat docks, recreation center, and on-site dining. Three sites run in back-in and pull-through categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30-amp, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. One thing to check: service is 30-amp, so a rig wired for heavier draw will need an adapter and some load management. Sixty feet accommodates a long coach with a tow. Ten tent sites and cabins round out the lodging. A general store, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. A beach, boat ramp, and boat docks open the water for boating, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and fishing, with a recreation center, playground, walking trails, hiking, dog park, horseshoes, on-site dining, and productive birding filling the rest. Pets are welcome. Sauble Beach is the reason to be here. Seven miles of continuous natural sand along Lake Huron's freshwater coast make it the most visited freshwater beach community in Canada, and the campground entrance is a short walk from it. The water is warm by Great Lakes standards and the sunsets over open water are the town's daily event. The Bruce Peninsula runs north from here toward Tobermory, the Bruce Trail, and Bruce Peninsula National Park's grotto and turquoise water. Summer is decisively the season. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

Tiny Village Bon Echo

1 RV Site, 6 Tent Sites

Tiny Village Bon Echo in Ompah, Ontario, offers a water-and-electric pull-through RV site and six tent sites in Canadian Shield country, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 30 feet. Cabins, an outdoor pool, beach, boat ramp, kayak rentals, and on-site dining serve a glamping-focused property near Bon Echo Provincial Park. The RV site is pull-through with water and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 30 feet. Two things to plan around: the site carries water and electric rather than sewer, and the 30-foot cap rules out most modern coaches. Six tent sites and classic rental cabins round out the lodging. A general store, propane fills, restrooms, showers, portable toilets, firewood, and on-site dining handle the practical side. Three policies worth knowing: check-in runs 3pm to 9pm only, checkout is 11am, and while there is no boat docking, launching is free. An outdoor pool and beach anchor the summer, with a lake, boat ramp, boat rentals, and kayak rentals opening the water for boating, canoeing, kayaking, and swimming. A recreation center, playground, walking trails, hiking, corn hole, and a river fill the rest, with offroading nearby and genuinely dark skies for stargazing. Bon Echo Provincial Park is a short drive and is where the Canadian Shield reaches its most dramatic expression — the Mazinaw Rock cliff rises roughly 330 feet straight out of Mazinaw Lake, carrying more than 260 Indigenous pictographs on its face. Summer is the short Ontario season. Reserve well ahead, and plan arrival within the check-in window.
