What Amenities and Activities Are Available at Hershey KOA?

Elizabethtown / Hershey KOA is a 50-acre, tree-filled campground in Eastern Pennsylvania that pairs standard RV and tent infrastructure with a broad set of recreation facilities — a swimming pool complex, minigolf, sand volleyball, horseshoes, basketball, a catch-and-release fishing pond, and wagon rides. It suits families who want a base for Hershey and Lancaster-area attractions while keeping kids occupied on-site, and RVers who need full hookup-style services including 20/30/50 amp power and pull-thru sites up to 100 feet.

Recreation and activities on the grounds

The campground spreads across 50 wooded acres and lists these options:

• Swimming pool complex — described as "sparkling," the main water feature on site.
• Catch-and-release fishing pond — stocked, so you can fish without keeping anything.
• Minigolf course
• Sand volleyball area
• Horseshoes
• Basketball hoop
• Wagon rides around the camp
• Planned summer activity events — the site references a summer activity schedule, so programming varies by season.
• Open space for frisbee and similar casual games.

If your goal is simply to sit and relax rather than join organized activities, the site explicitly notes that's an option too.

Location and nearby attractions

The campground sits at 1980 Turnpike Rd, Elizabethtown, PA 17022, and is roughly 20 minutes from Hershey — including HersheyPark with its rollercoasters, rides, and shows. It's also a short drive to Amish Country, the Pennsylvania Farm Show complex, factory tours in York County, and Historic Gettysburg.

Who this campground fits

• Families with kids — the pool, minigolf, volleyball, basketball, and summer events give children things to do without leaving the property.
• Big-rig RVers — 100-foot pull-thru sites and 50 amp service remove the usual maneuvering and power constraints.
• Glampers or non-RV travelers — deluxe cabins with full baths (and sometimes kitchenettes) are the alternative to tenting.
• Hershey and Lancaster visitors — the location works as a home base for day trips rather than a destination-only stay.
