Brandywine Creek State Park Campground
Established Campground
This 933-acre park offers 51 campsites spread across wooded loops along the Brandywine Creek, with sites accommodating RVs up to 40 feet. The campground features modern restrooms with hot showers, a nature center, and serves as base camp for exploring 14 miles of trails through tulip poplar forest and creek bottomland. Sites 1-25 offer the most privacy and shade.
Open year-round with electric hookups at all sites. The nature center operates seasonally and offers interpretive programs. Creek levels vary with rainfall, but several sites offer direct creek access for water collection. Reserve ahead for peak fall foliage season in October.
