Can we stop in and use your Sewer Dump Station for our RV even though we don't have a Reservation?

Yes. There is a $15.00 charge for Non-Reservation use, though. Those with a Reservation may use it for free.

Do you do Tent Camping?

No. Standalone Tents are banned. But, Tents are not entirely banned. You can technically use a Tent if you're also using another approved Equipment Type on your campsite along with your Tent. For more specific information, read our Banned Equipment Article.

Do you have Cabins?

No.

Can I come live on your campground?

It depends on how you’re defining the word ‘live’.


We are available to be, at most, a semi-permanent living arrangement for certain people, NEVER a 'permanent living residence' option for anyone.


Let us repeat that: our campground, as RV Park, has the capability to be a form of what we call, a ‘semi-permanent living arrangement’ for what could be a certain sub-set of people within their own reasonable scenarios.


The most common acceptable examples we see of this are: couples seeking interim housing in between building their new home, travel nurses, out-of-state pipeline workers, as well as, other travelling professionals, and of course; the typical full-time RVer seeking a quiet & chill spot to wind-down for their period of time.


To put this all in other terms, in a more blunt fashion: we would not advise you to seek to book with us if your intent is to ‘live and die’ on this campground. That specific scenario would require a different mode of action by you with other appropriate services out there; such as a properly licensed Mobile Home Park, etc.


Our campground is NOT a 'permeant living residence' for anyone, except the Park owner, who does live on the campground. That being said, we are an acceptable option for a semi-permanent living arrangement for certain people in certain scenarios. You don’t need to fully expound to us your own specific scenario, unless we were to ask you for it, because we had probable cause to investigate the fact that you’re trying to ‘live and die’ here.


So, although there’s not an officially enforced ‘maximum’ length-of-stay for any of our Monthly(or Seasonal) Reservations, if we begin to suspect that you are using our Park as your permanent living residence, and not merely your semi-permanent one, we will unhesitantly move to Mandatorily Cancel Your Reservation with us, and then proceed to Fully Block your Guest Profile from booking future Reservations with us.


You can receive packages via our mailing address. As well as the occasional letter, however when it comes specifically to letters(not as much so with packages these days), as more and more of them come in in your name, and over an extended period of time, our probable cause of Mandatorily Cancelling Your Reservation with us due to a suspected attempt to ‘live and die’ here, goes way up.

How many sites are on your campground?

We have a total of 186 RV Sites on our Campground.

Do you allow Dogs?

Yes.

1 Pet is included in the Base Rate.

Extra Pets are charged.

We allow a maximum of 3 Pets. Please clean up after your Dog & keep them on a leash at all times when outside your RV.

What is a 'Buddy Site'?

A 'Buddy Site' simply means 1 thing: You will likely face the campers on the site next to you when you put your awning out. It's best to come ready to make some friends or collaborate with your Group Members to book another one next to each other. However, if you do bring a long enough extension cord+piping for your hook-ups, you could easily flip your RV to face the other direction if you did not want to face the campers next to you.

'Buddy Site' does not mean you get to fit two RVs on that single site.

It also does not mean you get two sites, you need to book each of the two Buddy Sites separately!

Do you do RV storage at your Park?

Yes. Seasonals have 'free' RV Storage in the Winter, and we also do it for non-Seasonals on a manual managerial-approved basis. For more information on the latter, click here.

What are your Check-In & Check-Out times?

Check-In is at 1 PM.

Check-Out is at 10 AM.

Do you have a Basketball Court?

No.

Do you have Free Wi-Fi?

Yes.

Is there a Dog Park for walking dogs?

Kind of! Please us our Nature Trail as a spot to walk your pups. Just be careful & check for any ticks afterwards!

Do you rent Golf Carts?

No.

Can I bring my own Golf Cart?

Yes. However, you need to first email frontdesk@whiteoakcampground.com a copy of your driver's license & insurance card before you may begin using it.

Can we have visitors?

Yes. Please read both our Day Vistors & Overnight Visitors Articles for more information.

Do you sell firewood?

Yes, in our Camp Store.

Please don't bring your own firewood, it's bad for the ecosystem. Unless it's from the State of Pennsylvania, then it's ok.

Do you sell ice?

Yes, in our Camp Store.

Can we have a fire on our site?

Yes, just keep it under control and never let it unattended. Only one fire ring per site. We do not permit stacking them up.

Can we come in and use your Pool without making a Reservation?

No.

Do you fill propane tanks at your campground?

No. Click here to see local options.

Can we come in a little sooner or stay a little longer than Check-In or Check-Out times?

Yes.

So long as no one is on the site before you or no one is coming in on the site right after you. You have a grace period of 1-Hour for both, where no extra charges will incur. If you go over that 1-Hour grace period we must charge a small fee.

Click here to Apply For Early Arrival or Late Departure.

Can we have more than one RV on our Site?

No.

Maximum amount of all combined Equipment Allowed per 1 campsite:

What is the latest time I need to leave my site by if I do a Late Departure?

If you properly apply ahead of time & pay your Half-Day Charge/Rate for the Late Departure; you can leave your site as late as 9 PM that day.

How many people can we have on our site?

Once quiet hours take effect (9 PM - 8 AM) then Base Occupancy Policy applies, which can be read by clicking here.

Guests may freely socialize between sites beforehand.

Do you have a dump station if we only take a site with electric & water?

Yes, and it will be free of charge for you to use.

How do I access the Wi-Fi Network?

Join our network: "WhiteOakCampgroundWiFi" then wait for the pop-up screen or attempt to load a webpage to get the splash welcome screen. Then use the Access Code: "camper".

Is there a Fire Ring & Picnic Table on every site?

Yes.

Is there an auction next door?

Not any more. They moved to the Flower & Craft Warehouse in Blue Ball, PA.

Can I leave my RV on one of your sites for 1-3 days while I'm gone doing something else?

Not really. We could allow something like this on a case-by-case basis & charge you the RV Storage Rate on those 1-3 days you are gone, but RV Storage Reservations do require managerial approval, and these types of scenarios are typically fast-moving and fleeting enough so that getting a manager involved in what you're trying to do within a couple of hours of you walking in and notifying someone in the Camp Store is just not at all likely.

We could also just charge you the regular Daily Rate for those days, which would be more realistic, but also probably not worth it for you.

What is the earliest time I can come in by when I do an Early Arrival?

If you properly apply ahead of time & pay your Half-Day Charge/Rate for the Early Arrival; you can come into your site as early as 8 AM that day.

Can we allow someone to come and stay in our camper if we are not there?

No, we do not allow subleasing.
