We reserved Premier Cottages 4 & 6 in July 2024 and paid around $1,500 for 4 nights. When we arrived at the campground, we were met with poor customer service by rich and a female staff member. They were rude, condescending, and unaccommodating. We arrived a little early and were told we could not check in until EVERY cabin/cottage had been cleaned. Check in is at 3 PM. We did not get our keys until 4 PM, right before the office closed. Our cabins had dirty bathrooms. One cabin was missing a smoke detector. One was missing all of the patio chairs. In one of the cabins the oven started smoking when we preheated it because it was dirty. We had to clean it ourselves and open the sliding glass door to air it out. We had 2 disabled people with us that use canes and are unable to walk long distances. There is 1 handicap parking space near the pool. Clearly not enough for an entire campground. It is not disability inclusive at all. We ran out of toilet paper. At no time does anyone check to see if you need extra toilet paper, towels, etc. They show a waterslide at one of the pools on the campground map. It doesn't exist. The arcade was locked and had signs on the door stating, "sorry for the inconvenience". We had ants all around one of the kitchen sinks and trash can. We were cooking and washing dishes one day and the water suddenly stopped working. I tried to call the emergency phone number and received a message stating that in order to receive a call back I had to leave a voicemail. Well...that was impossible because the voicemailbox was full. We brought a projector and screen to watch movies at night. The outdoor outlets didn't work. There is not a single positive thing I can say about our experience which is sad because we have stayed many times previously. It has completely gone downhill.

This is my first time here at this campground, and I may go back in the future. We stayed two nights and cost $306 for a one bedroom cabin with an AC unit and mini fridge. Also outside is a picnic table, fire pit, and charcoal grill. We also rented a golf cart for $60 a day, but I thought it was a little pricey. It should be like $40 a day. They did have a food truck Friday night. However, it left at 7 pm, and they had no where posted times of trucks, so they had no idea how long they would be there. They have a nice mini golf cart, which was free to play. I thought it was nice. Two pools were a good size. However, the hot tub was out of order. They also advertised a snack shack, which looks run down and not even open or usable. The acrade was pretty small, with a few games that didn't look too bad. Looks like they used to have a theater. However, it was run down and closed off no longer used. They have a catch and release pond. However, the people that work they must not keep up with it because there was trash all over the ground and overflowing trash cans. The Benches don't look like they have been replaced in years. It would only take a few new planks of wood. For members paying $6,000 a year to have a site, I assumed more Amenities would have been taken care of better. All in all, it's not awful but not great.

We went "glamping" in Premier Cabin 2 at the Drummer Boy CampIng Resort near Gettysburg from Sunday to Tuesday. It was close to the pond and had a secluded nook with a fire pit for our cabin. The kids (boy, 14, and girl, 15) had fun fishing at the pond every day. We brought rods. (Pro tip: Cut up hot dogs worked the best for bait. We caught nothing with worms.) There are two pools, a front pool and a back pool with a big water slide. Slide was fun, but the kids said it was slow. It's probably more fun for younger kids. Some reviews mentioned a fee for the slide, but there wasn't one when we went on Monday. It's a good distance from the pond - would recommend driving or taking a golf cart. You can rent a golf cart for about $67/day. We didn't end up renting one. The premier cabin was much nicer than we anticipated. It came with all the amenities you need to spend a few days in a campground: dishes/silverware for 10+ people, sponge to wash dishes (no dish soap though), one roll of paper towels, two rolls of toilet paper, 8+ bath towels/wash cloths, linens/blankets for most beds and the futon, spatulas, pots, etc. It had a microwave, regular refrigerator with freezer, and a drip coffee maker with extra filters provided. Bring your own coffee. There were TVs in the two bedrooms and living room. The bathroom and stand-up shower were pretty small, but nice enough. There was a very large deck with an outdoor table and chairs for six people. That was nice. All and all, it was more than enough for our family of four for three days and two nights. If you go, here's what I would bring: dish soap, oven mitt (we brought a cast iron pan and cooked breakfast on the fire), toiletries (especially hand and body soap), ground coffee, aluminum foil, can coozi's, matches/fire wood/newspaper, hand sanitizer, bluetooth speaker, and fishing rods. Premier Cabin 2 is near highway 15, which was loud at times. We just listened to music by the fire so it didn't bother us. A good time was had by all! Next time we'd like to stay one of the premier cabins on the pond. They were just steps from the pond and the views were gorgeous!

We've been a seasonal campers here for 11 years. The park has gone down hill every year but the prices keep going up. It is currently much higher then any other campground in the area. The pools are disgusting, they can't be vacuumed because the pump isn't working properly. Very much a health concern. There are no lifeguards, the hot tub is always broken, the water slide is closed for the whole season, there is no consistent snack shack, toilets near the pool are disgusting & often out of order for months. All of these issues have been brought up to management with no changes. We have stayed for the great friends we've made but at $6,000 a year & the condition the park is in, it sadly may be time to leave. Will they fill our spot? Of course but people won't stay long once they see how bad it is

Just left there after a 4 day stay, they put us upfront which gets a lot of Highway noise. Was right by a bunch of seasonal sites which were party central. This was the 3rd time we've stayed there, 1st time was great since we were in the back, 2nd time was basically a last minute trip and that site sucked as we were right next to a power pole with a big electrical box taking up part of the site. This 3rd trip we had no idea we would be put into party central by all the seasonal sites. They did have a craft show, and a band on Saturday night which was ok but we had no clue we would be put right into all the traffic and noise that came with these events. This park is rather pricey but your about 5 minutes from Gettysburg. We did go into one bathhouse which was clean, very dated but plumbing leaks were literally fixed with wormdrive clamps and expoxy. The water went out while we were there, this place has great potential but doesn't live up to what they charge. Would we go again, probably not, we've had one good experience and two negative experiences here. We go camping to relax and some peace and quiet, was unhappy being placed right in the middle of the party people. Will just go to the KOA from now on. Did'nt feel it was worth what they charge.

Horrible. We are full time RVers so we stay in campgrounds all over North America, this was our worst RV park experience to date. We stayed on a Saturday in November at a rate of $63.75 for one night. This campground should not bill itself as a resort, it is dirtier and simpler than many state parks we've visited. The bathrooms were dirty with only lukewarm water, and looked like an old high school locker room. We needed to do laundry and 2 of 3 washers were broken. When we arrived we should have known this place would be a problem. The woman at the front desk showed us the available campsites on a map, and when we asked her to recommend one she told us that the staff doesn't get put into the campground much so we should just go look at them. When we chose one and paid we weren't given any information, we had to ask about WiFi and laundry, and we were not told at the time that 2 of 3 washers were broken. The electrical hookups at the site we're old and wiggly, and it was a struggle to keep the plug plugged in properly. The campground seemed to be shutting down for the season, none of the amenities were open (like the pool/hot tub) yet we were still charged full price. We would never return to this camping "resort".

We spent 4 days and 3 nights at Little Drummer Boy over the Labor Day weekend. While it wasn't our first choice, after calling about 10 other campgrounds it was the only one that had availability 3 weeks before the holiday. With over 500 sites + tent sites and cabins this is a massive campground. Overall it was decent and we had a nice stay. I will note that it is the most expensive site we've ever stayed at $90/night + a daily resort fee. I do think it's overpriced for what is offered and have stayed at better at much lower price points. Here's a breakdown: SITES: are double sized, and rustic. A fire pit with cooking grate was included but not cleaned out from prior camper. Our site did have litter, including grease that was dumped and became like a brittle when mixed with the gravel, small trash items, and even small remnants of leftover Halloween decorations. The water was located far from the other utilities and two water hoses were required. Noise from neighboring Route 15 was very noticeable when outside but not inside when we had the windows closed and ac on. There must not be any quiet hours or they are not enforced. Two nights our seasonal neighbors were outside partying past 2 am, (one night till 4 am!) complete with kids yelling, which made sleeping difficult. But their cable package had 73 channels - the most of any campground! POOLS: they have two, one geared towards but not exclusive to adults (no lifeguard) with a hot tub, another geared towards kids with a waterslide, mushroom, and duck sprinkler (with lifeguard). "Kids" pool was a good 10 minute drive from out site near the lodge in a vehicle. Kid pool hours were deceptive; posted as opening at 10 but they claim the sign says 11 (see pic). Adult pool does opens at 10. Slide was restricted to 48" and over and enforced. Lifeguards were very attentive. Kids pool had some missing tiles that was covered with a chair so the rough surface was avoided. Lounges, chairs, covered tables were at each pool. Both were walk out, getting deeper as you went in. The areas were clean. The hot tub has several signs marked for adults only but it wasn't enforced. Limited amount of parking at each, with the adult pool parking geared towards golf carts. LODGE: this is where a shopping event was held (didn't attend) and bingo. It's a massive space complete with commercial kitchen and stone fireplace. However it was run down and most of it was used for storage which was an eyesore. I feel it could be so much more than what it was and is totally underutilized. EVENTS: we participated in a few, free s'more making at the community fire pit, bingo, and a free cookout complete with band at the pavilion at the kids pool. That event was very loud and the kids didn't like it so we left. Bingo was very affordable and the payouts high, but they ran out of cards. In fact they were very rude to incoming patrons when that happened. I personally witnessed the male activity employee close the door as people were a foot away from it, post the sign, and not say a word. It was upsetting and I thought it could have been handled differently. After all it's the campgrounds fault they ran out of cards! POND: the fish like hot dogs and were biting. The area was a tad messy with discarded fishing line, full trash cans, and litter. The store does NOT sell bait (but should) but does sell hooks. There is no parking at the pond and we had to inquire at the office about parking at a non rented tent site. OVERALL: store employees were nice and well prepared at check in but wish the store had more supplies and hand dipped ice cream. ATM did NOT work. They had a café but it never opened this year and was just dusty and abandoned. Firewood was priced above average. The mini golf was sad and void of any landscaping or décor. Campground is hard to navigate, the map has the adult pool and playground reversed in print. Even after a 4 day stay we couldn't get a feel for the layout. Roads are curvy and narrow and difficult to maneuver in a big truck. Had difficultly backing into our site. Golf carts are highly recommended (they rent for $75/day but were out). GENERAL: this place doesn't live up to the potential of the property and I expect more at this price point especially with the addition of the "resort fee". Management didn't make a presence, other than a lifeguard, 2 activities employees and store personnel we didn't see any other employees. The seasonal sites are better maintained and landscaped than the common grounds which is sad. It didn't feel like anyone affiliated with the campground stayed onsite overnight, which raises security issues, as well as no enforcement for loud neighbors like ours. It did fall short for us and we wouldn't stay here again. SIDENOTE: the aroma of sewage could be smelled in certain areas or when the wind blew. Some areas it was so strong it gagged me out. The kid's pool restroom smelled like straight up piss

For context, we are new to RV glamping. This is our second campground. The campground is adjacent to the interstate and can be heard all day. At night, the crickets do drown out the cars. There is a lot of traffic throughout the campground-cars and golf carts. There are lots of trees which is a plus. The sites are a good size. The short term areas are better maintained than the seasonal areas. The seasonal area had lots of weeds and looked a junky with all of the personalized site decor. The pools were great. Loved the veggie cart that came to the campground on Saturday. The biggest negative has been the smell of sewage. We were worried it was us since we are new to all of this and we may not have hooked up properly. When the wind blows from the north, we get the stench. We reported the smell to the office. Will update if they come to address. The bathhouse is not well maintained. I thought I read they were newly renovated. It would benefit from mildew remover. Can't get a wifi connection.

Our 4th trip to Drummer Boy and it was a great as usual. We come with a large group and they always do their best to accommodate us. Check in couldn't be more convenient. The cleanest bathrooms I've seen at any campground. Staff is very friendly. Overall great place to stay.
