    Cute creek, cute bridge.
    Kelly H.

    Nelly and co were friendly from the start. The pool and gem sluice made this place a good recreation spot for our little one, and camping beside Switzer Creek made it restful for us. We didn't have the most private site, but moderate tree cover and the creek bubbling past were very nice. The creek appears to divide the campground in half but there are bridges throughout, including a cute covered bridge behind the camp store/laundry/pool, all of which were very clean. Enjoying the fire pit is easy since they deliver firewood directly to your site. There are wineries in the area, and some are super close, but this family-friendly campground allows no alcohol so use your party cup and don't act like a rookie. If you forget something the camp store has most staples--and video rental!!! If your camper has DVD, happy browsing. In all, a pleasant spot if you're passing through, or a decent spot to make a weekend of it. I'm betting it's gorgeous in Autumn.

    Quick trip w grandkids we stayed in cabin by the pool. Check in easy n fast employees very friendly. Awesome store w lots of neccessary items. Pool was nice only 3 tables w shade for babies glad stroller had a canopy. only steps to get to the pool so had to manuever stroller down n up like 6 big concrete steps. We will stay again it was a peaceful lil campground.

    Panoramic of the site, stream, trees etc. very campground-esque.

    My family brought our pop up camper here mid September. We checked in with some indifferent employees in the shop, and a guy on a golf cart escorted us directly to the site. It was a good size site, situated directly next to a small stream. Very scenic and good tree cover/shade throughout most of the grounds. Saturday throughout the day there were little events at the rec center - donuts and coffee at 10am, an ice cream social at 3pm - all of which were complimentary. The facilities, restrooms and grounds were as you would expect from a KOA campground - kept up, but maybe they could put a little extra in toward it. We had a good time over the weekend. We also made the hiking trail circuit - be ready for a steep hike! It takes about 30-40 minutes to complete, or at least it did for me. Very scenic forested path and at the end a cool tree fort and some views of the surrounding farms. Possibly could have had a four star rating, however I have to agree with some other Yelpers that the alcohol free rule was a bit perplexing. Although I absolutely certain many of the campers were indeed drinking alcohol. Also later into Friday and Saturday night, there was pretty good amount of noise, yelling etc. from people hanging out around their fires... I'm talking like 12:30am. Hot the end of the world, but would be nice if somebody drove around and kept an eye on that. Decent place. Give it a try for yourself.

    Rented a cabin for three nights. The cabin was cute. But filthy. I understand it's camping and a cabin but the floors Should be cleaned at some point. There was only one ac in the two room cabin which kept it bareable. The store and arcade closes a few hours each day which was kind of a letdown. Overall the grounds were very mushy I guess because they are in and around a creek? The pool was nice, bathrooms ok. Once we got there realized there is no alcohol allowed which I think is absurd. I enjoy a beer by the campfire at the end of the day but couldn't do that here? When you walk out of the bathroom you almost trip on the cigarette posts where you can smoke. The worker was there one day smoking up a storm. So myself and daughter had to walk through a cloud of smoke to get out the door. Smoke all You want and disturb non smokers but don't drink a beer on your campsite. We ended up checking out a day early because I was sick of having black feet and socks from the floor of the cabin.

    Very quiet and wooded. We backed up to a calm stream which doubled in size overnight after a thunderstorm. We loved it.

    We absolutely love this campground. Friendly staff upon arrival and a lovely general store that…read morecarries all the essentials. They have a stocked pond on site as well as a pool, splash pad and mini spa. We've stayed on sites- W-4, W-7, F-4 and have had family stay in Cabins throughout our time here. All sites and cabins are well kept, tidy and provide both elements of a private and social gathering. The bathhouse is near the main office while the other restrooms throughout property are no more than a 2-3 minute walk from your site. The cabins do have a full bathroom and you do not need to hold and press to keep the shower head on. The Cabins also offer a gazebo with propane grill. The nature trail on site is short but can be challenging with unlevel ground and nature's confetti (wet leaves) ultimately bringing you towards Lake Warren (bonus there is a beautiful koi pond on the right hand side of the residential gravel road in the residential area). Past the pool area there are also basketball courts and a tennis court. Every weekend there are activities that are family and budget friendly. We can't wait to return.

We were told what site we were going to be at and we proceeded on. On the phone making reservation it was made clear we would be amongst brush & trees/bushes, well that was NOT the case. We were put in what was apparently just cleared & created as new sites. It was a clear cut stone parking lot. No brush, no trees. VERY CLOSE together sites. Not the camping feel at all. We enjoy a campsite surrounded by nature & woods. We booked their special of camp two consecutive wknds and you can leave the camper there. After spending one night we decided we did not want to be there the following wknd. We spoke w/ the office & the woman took notes and said the office manager would have to make the decision on refund & that SHE would be in all day the following day. We took many walks w/the dog & had no issues until Saturday early evening. There is a home on the property (assuming the owners home). As we were walking we were approached by two dogs OFF leash. One was calm, the other not so much. Having had a run in with a neighborhood dog and the dog jumping on me this was not looking like a good situation. A man & woman strolled up the road w/ no sense of urgency. I yelled & voiced myself while hovering over our dog and my boyfriend trying to block their dog who was growling & barking. Keep in mind it was Pet wknd at the campground. It was said to me after getting quite upset "Are you hurt yet?' Not something someone should say when encountering an aggressive dog. The next day we were told by the office that a manager was on HIS way to talk to us. He was a very young man assuming related to the owners. He was though very kind & polite & said a refund would be issued. I did mention the dog situation, and he was not very responsive so definitely thinking now those were his parents. Site next door was very loud Saturday night, with yelling & a dj size speaker outside that was still going at 10:45PM, quite hours are 10PM-7AM. No one riding around checking on things. Again, the campground was nice, clean & mostly friendly staff, but we will not return due to some rules that ownership/management do not follow. Note-they have mini golf & charge $8.00 per person, showers by the office are push button & one only stayed on for 3 seconds. Did let manager know.

There was an issue with water but the Ranger assigned allowed me to hook up to the next site that was vacant. The resort is not the most beautiful I've been too but they do have full hook ups and plenty of space on each site. There's is also plenty of room to walk and hike. Plenty of entertainment for the kids.

The management and employees go out of their way to make sure every guest has a great and enjoyable stay. Very kid friendly and their are plenty of events and things for kids to do. The other guest in the RV park welcomed us to their camping family. The current management has made many improvements from what I have seen and heard from other seasonal campers. Everyone from the employees, the management, and the current seasonal guests all have ambitions to make this RV park even better than it already is. Excitement is in the air and I'm proud to be part of the Scotrun RV park family. I would recommend anyone to come check out Thousand Trails Scotrun RV park and will guarantee you will fall in love with this place as my family and I did. See you all soon!

    Went on a climbing trip to a crag close to Nanticoke PA and luckily found this campground to stay…read moreat for one night during Memorial Weekend. For 2 of us, paid $30 total for one night for a tent site (tent sites are in the strip of land across the road from the main office). The tent site was much better than I thought. 1. only 3 parties there in a very large area reserved for tent only camping, we were very spread out and it was pretty peaceful 2. camp site right next to a beautiful creek! 3. had electric outlets and tap faucet right next to the tent site. We didn't bring anything that could be plugged into an outlet but thinking in the future I could be sitting in a hammock and watching a movie on my laptop while being charged 4. camp site didn't have a fire pit or an obvious hole in the ground where you make your fire safely but we were out climbing very late and too tired to make a fire anyways when we got back. Lots of fallen branches you can collect to make a fire. The other 2 parties had built fires, didn't see how they did it. 5. the shower house closest to the main offices had large showers which were in decent level of cleanliness, paper towels kept running out though so bring your own Overall, very happy with this campground and will definitely come back in the future! A couple of things I noticed (1) the area where RV's are parked looked pretty crowded and also loud (2) I don't think I saw anyone else wearing masks around the campground, even when a lot of people were going in and out of the office. The 2 of us may be the only ones wearing masks there, when going into the office and using the bathroom

Since then there have been a lot of changes under the management of the new owners!!! The new owners have done a terrific job updating and cleaning up the property in just a short 6 months. They have remodeled cabins, painted the bath houses and pavilions, reinforced and painted the playground and fixed the roads that lead to each of the 3 levels of the grounds. That's just the beginning of what they have in store for upcoming seasons. It has been so much fun meeting new people who have been so kind and friendly!! We've had numerous gatherings at the main pavilion with live music, food, games and hay rides!!! 4th of July weekend they put on a fireworks display and at Halloween a Trunk or Treat for the kids!!! I love our new campground family!!!
