Pope Haven Campground

A great place to unwind and experience the Amish trail. Didn’t realize this is what we were coming to when we arrived but enjoyed deiving to the different Amish stores / homes. As for the campground, it was fine. Place is clean and spaced enough apart. This is mostly seasonal campers with some travelers in one area. Speed limit is 5 mph (which is fine) but golf carts are seen to go much faster and cut through the grass to avoid ruts in road (even staff breaks this rule). Speed bumps a plenty but they are a surprise when you hit one as they are not marked. After we arrived and set camp, the area was trimmed by local Amish boys who ended up trimming a hole in my hose (didn’t discover until I arrived at my next campground 6 hours away but there was grass clippings on my hose and sewer hose). Also, sewer is to high as i could not dump without disconnecting my hose in the air for gravity assist. Overall it was fine and safe, but not perfect.

Had a great time this weekend at Popehaven with the family. Swimming, fishing and corn hole tournament. Cabins were clean, but the door on one of them was sticking but not enough to cause any problems. RV sites were full hook up and worked out great. Everyone was friendly. Didn't worry about the kids running around as 5mph was strictly enforced.

Very muddy campground. Has 50amp hookups. Driving through campground was not fun. Muddy with tight squeezes between tree and very tall hills. Appears run down. Long term RVs that are obviously falling apart/not on working conditions. Location itself is a good ways from anything including main roads in area. I was by myself so had no issue staying. However wouldn't have felt comfortable having kids there. (Not that they would want to spend time outside RV if we're there anyway)

Me and my family have been camping here for years. I wanted to say, for a lot of the bad reviews, they were under past ownership. I've worked with the current owners for a few years and they're nice people. The campground is incredibly enjoyable and they're always adding new stuff every summer. Of course no place is perfect, but for a small team, they're doing pretty good. On top of this, I know several of the seasonals and they are always kind and willing to help.

We stayed here over the three day Memorial Day holiday. We'd been traveling for about a month and made our reservations a week ahead. The campground was so crowded. It appeared that they let anyone stay in any spot despite the size of their camper. The sites were very rustic and far from level. The water pressure was so low that we could barely wash our hands-forget about taking a shower. There were many families there with children who seemed to have a great time. We would not recommend this campground. It needs a lot of work. Can't understand how Good Sam gave it such high marks. That will make me reconsider using Good Sam.
