What types of campsites and cabins does Hershey KOA offer?

Updated

Elizabethtown / Hershey KOA offers four ways to stay: RV campsites, tent sites, log cabin rentals, and deluxe cabins. The right choice depends on whether you're bringing your own rig, sleeping in a tent, or want a roof over your head — and on whether you need a private bathroom or kitchenette.

The four accommodation types

RV Campsites

The campground accommodates "trailers, motorhomes, pop-ups and Big Rigs." Sites offer 20/30/50 amp service, and the maximum pull-thru length is 100 feet. If you're driving a large rig and want to avoid backing in, the 100-foot pull-thru limit is the number to check against your vehicle length before booking.

Tent Sites

Tent campers get a "basic, primitive tent site." Primitive means you should expect to rely on the campground's shared facilities rather than hookups at your site — the amenities list includes outdoor dishwashing stations and a dump station, but nothing described as water or electric at tent sites.

Log Cabin Rentals (Camping Cabins)

These are described as "a great choice when you want to join in camping with your friends." They suit groups who want a cabin base without the full amenities of the deluxe units.

Deluxe Cabins

Deluxe cabins "provide a full bath and some have kitchenettes." The site notes these are "perfect for those glampers" — campers who want comfort rather than a primitive experience. Because only some units have kitchenettes, confirm that detail for the specific cabin you book if cooking in is important to you.

Shared amenities across the campground

Whatever you book, the campground lists these amenities: outdoor dishwashing stations, picnic tables and fire rings, free cable TV, free WiFi, shaded to open sites, a dump station, and 24-hour coin laundry. The 50-acre property also has a catch-and-release fishing pond, sand volleyball, minigolf, horseshoes, basketball, a swimming pool complex, and wagon rides.

How to decide

  • Bringing an RV or trailer: Book an RV campsite, and match your rig's length to the 100-foot pull-thru maximum if you want pull-thru convenience.
  • Tenting: Choose a primitive tent site and plan around shared facilities.
  • Want a cabin with a bathroom: Go deluxe, and confirm whether your specific unit has a kitchenette.
  • Camping with a group of friends: A log cabin rental is the option the campground positions for that.

The campground is about 20 minutes from Hershey and HersheyPark, and a short drive from Amish Country, the Pennsylvania Farm Show complex, York County factory tours, and Gettysburg — useful if you're picking a base for regional day trips.
