“Remote RV Site 30 Minutes From PA Turnpike”

Reviewed 7/24/2024

Days stayed: 1
Site Number: 82
Overall Rating

When traveling from Philly to Pittsburgh in July, we wanted a remote site to spend the night in our van. Site 82 in Tuscarora State Forest fit the bill. It’s about 30 minutes from the eastern turnpike exit. Road is gravel and well maintained except for washboards. Do not attempt in winter as the mountain road has steep dropoffs with no guardrails. Nice overlook at the top. Site 82 is on a minor ridge between two major ridges but has no views. The site itself is good for a small to mid-sized trailer or van. Sizable field behind the fire ring and aging picnic table for tents. This is an undeveloped area. Typical PA deciduous forest with some older trees. Nothing spectacular in the way of scenery. No marked trails nearby but some abandoned logging roads. Lots of bugs. No stream nearby. No cell service. 45 drive west to turnpike. entrance. Very light population pressure on a weekday. Site 71 also looks interesting. Feels much more remote than Michaux State Forest south of Harrisburg.
