Lower Campground Kettle Creek State Park

The lower campground at Kettle Creek State Park is my choice between the two campsites. You can pull in so close to the creek you could almost fish out the back window of your camper. The lower campground is for both campers and tents and has modern electric campsites. The campground has a nature center, playgrounds, ADA accessible fishing pier, sanitary dump station, and restrooms with warm showers. The campground opens in early April and closes in mid-December.

We stayed for a week in the non pet area. Our site #35 was at the end and very quiet. Beautiful view of Kettle Creek. Be sure to have full gas tanks since it is a drive to get any supplies or fuel. You are out in the middle of nowhere. Peaceful mountain area. Rated as four stars due to the lack of stoned sites in this section and short turn around area. The pet area has nice stoned sites and fire pits. Our fire pit was behind and on the other side of the RV. It was very muddy after it rained. A ranger did indicate that there were planned improvements coming to this section in the fall. Make sure to bring a fly swatter or two. The biting flies were really bad the week we were there. Also there were rattlesnakes, one by our RV and another down at the other end. We didn’t see them b

Amazing campground , clean restroom, water available to most sites by less than 300 feet, view of the creek from campsites are one of the amazing experiences you could get ok camping. Staffs and hosts were very friendly , made sure the restrooms are always clean to use irrespective of time of the day. There is no camp store at the ground but near by stores are around 20 min away from sites. Camp sites are moderate in size , paved camp site bed floor , some sites are along the creek and some are located in slope. Fire rings are clean, easily accessible from roads , most of the sites has shades. Carefully pick the day of camping , we went on very humid day and it was bit of tough to be in the area. Small children’s play area in the campground.

This Campground was awesome. The sites were beautiful, woodsy, well spaced and right up to the creek. Perfect camping in my opinion. Fire rings were nice, spaces were set up well. The creek is stocked but it didn't appear to be super easy to get fish to bite other than the panfish...the others just came to the surface and ate the unending supply of bugs available to them. Bugs were pretty annoying despite applying bug repellent. Bathroom facilities looked new, however, I will say the one place that needed improvement were the showers. Beautiful yes, but the faucets were push on and only lasted 10 seconds(we counted) before the water shut off so you literally would have to keep pushing the faucet on every 10 sec to shower yourself. Also there were no shower heads so it was just a stream tha

Kettle Creek State Park is a PA gem! We stayed on site 9, which is on the water. The park is so clean and the caretaker for the cleaning was the nicest man and gave great suggestions of what to visit. We will visit this park again. We highly recommend you to visit!
