Winters in Somerset County can be beautiful, but if you’re more of a warm weather enthusiast then your season has arrived. It’s time to go camping. The outdoors is addictive and I know you campers are longing to experience the first taste of clean mountain air, sitting under the stars, listening to the peepers, and catching up with old friends at Hickory Hollow Campground. The campground officially opens this Friday, April 14, 2023 and we are excited to welcome back some familiar faces as we kick off the season.
We’ve been very busy this winter enhancing the campground and adding a really cool Swing Kingdom playground that the kids are absolutely going to love. Parents may find it hard to pull the kids away from the multi-faceted adventure area, even for a s’more or two. We’ve also done a little rearranging by moving the Rustic Cabins and adding a few additional overnight sites over-looking the lake. Make sure to check out the Conestoga Wagons located in the tent area which have been glamped up for this season and are now completely furnished adding a new-fangled and fun prospect for those looking to experience camping for the first time.
Campers are really loving the CampSpot reservation system that was implemented last year, and many have started using the quick and efficient system to book their reservations on line any time of the day. But for those of you who are less tech savvy, no worries, we still have someone managing the office daily and will be able to assist you in making your seasonal reservations, hassle free.
We are so excited to begin our 18th camping season with a five-star rating from Trip Advisor and chosen as the 2022 Travelers Choice and best value campground in the area. Our visitors sent so many wonderful comments our way last year some of which include: “Best Wi-Fi we have found at any campground…the kids can swim and fish and I can get my work done…” “Nice campground with a quiet peaceful setting…plenty of space to take our dog on long walks…” “A hidden jewel, clean, level sites, great cable, great Wi-Fi, best of any park we’ve ever visited…” “Nice people, clean sites, and a beautiful setting” “Wide and long sites, nice big fire pits, on site laundry, swimming pool, play area for children.” Wow, it’s going to be hard to measure up to that this year, but we are going to give it our best. Hickory Hollow works hard so your camping experience will be the best adventure of the year, we look forward to seeing you soon!
