The Poconos region in Northeastern Pennsylvania is geographically blessed with abundant mountains, streams and thick, green forests. This heavily visited picturesque mountain region is bordered by the Delaware River between Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Several RV parks can be found to place campers near the region's recreational activities such as Driftstone on the Delaware and the Moc-A-Tek Campground and RV Park located near Lake Ariel, Pennsylvania. Modern facilities and full hookups are often offered by these normally seasonal RV camping facilities. This is the mildest winter area of northeastern Pennsylvania due to its coastal proximity but snow is still heavy through the winter.
Located in the northeastern part of Pennsylvania but closer to the central portion of the state, RV campers will find a mix of rural farm area and Appalachian Mountain small towns connected by winding interstates and mountain highways. Slower than the Pocono region but still drawing visitors to such attractions as sprawling state forest lands and the meandering west branch of the Susquehanna River, this area offers many state park run RV camping facilities such as World's End and Ricketts Glen State Parks. Winters in these interior Appalachian Mountains can be quite cold and have heavier snowfall than is typical in the Poconos region farther east.
For the traveler looking to find year round RV camping accommodations in northeastern Pennsylvania, the best region with the most options are privately owned parks near the Scranton-Wilkes-Barre metropolitan center. These privately owned parks such as Lehigh Gorge Campground south of Wilkes-Barre often offer RV campers discounted extended stay rates, four season activities and full-time utility hookups including cable and Wifi as well as easy access year-round to northeastern Pennsylvania's interstate freeways. Many casinos, concert events, auto races and yearly festivals are within close proximity making this an ideal place to rent a spot when visiting the area for these attractions.
