It’s July at Stony Fork Creek Campground, and that means long sunny days, refreshing creekside adventures, and one very exciting event on the horizon. Whether you’re relaxing under the trees or gearing up for the upcoming Stony Fork Music Festival, there’s no better time to soak up the season in the Pennsylvania mountains.
💦 Cool Off in the Creek
There’s nothing like the sound of water and a shady spot by the creek on a warm July afternoon. Our peaceful stretch of Stony Fork Creek is the perfect place to unwind—whether you’re fishing 🎣, floating, or just dipping your toes in the water. Families love it, and pets do too!
🥾 Take to the Trails
Want to stretch your legs and see some views? The Seven Sisters Trail climbs straight from the campground to the top of Little Walker Mountain ⛰️. For something gentler, stroll the nature trail loop right inside the campground. Pack a picnic 🧺, bring the binoculars 🔭, and keep your eyes peeled for birds and deer 🦌! Learn more about the area’s trails at the USDA Stony Fork Campground page.
👨👩👧👦 Make it a Family Getaway
With wide-open spaces, friendly neighbors, and fun things to do, July is ideal for camping with kids or grandkids. Need a break from the sun? Head to the Pennsylvania Lumber Museum 🪓 just down the road for hands-on exhibits and local history. Or check out horseback riding 🐎, fishing spots, and nearby ice cream stops 🍦 for the ultimate summer day.
