GenieSummary
Gifford Pinchot State Park in Wellsville, PA is a nice state park for camping. The park is large and has well-paved roads, with many sites having paved areas. The views around the park are great, and it is close to Gettysburg (35 minutes), Harrisburg (20 minutes), and York (30 minutes), making it a good hub for sightseeing. The park is quiet, and there is a lake for fishing and boating activities, though the lake is stagnant in some parts, and bugs can be intense. The bathrooms are clean but could use an update. Our site was clean and level, with electric but no water. It was a bit close to neighbors, but vegetation provided privacy. Check-in time is at 4 pm, which can be annoying if there are local campers waiting until the last minute to leave. The staff is only available a few hours a day on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.
