We stayed in a cabin for our end of the year scout trip. Cabin smelled brand new, was close to bath house and very clean. Staff was friendly and the girls had a great time. They had fun events going on each night. I enjoyed the hot tub after horseback riding earlier in the day. I would recommend this campground.

We just stayed here over Memorial Day weekend in our travel trailer. Even though we were not a fan of our site we still managed to have a great time! It was rather narrow and was at the top of a steep hill. We had some questions about hook up and the staff even sent someone out pretty quick to... More

The campground is limited. The water pressure kept going out. The playground has 12 year old equipment. There is a metal slide and two swings. The staff was very rude. Go cart drivers were below age, and lost control of a cart and could of hurt my children. They almost hit my camper if the picnic table were not there.... More

We enjoyed our stay here. It was very clean & well maintained. The sites were a bit narrow & mostly gravel, but deep enough & had greenery throughout. Great pools, although the water slide was closed on Memorial Day. Golf cart rental was fun & helpful to get around the Campground. The road noise from route 15 was initially noticeable,... More

Frankly, I don't understand some of the negative reviews of this campground. My wife and I have stayed here around 10 to 12 weekends during the 2012 camping season, and thoroughly enjoyed every week at Drummer Boy, without any negative issues whatsoever. We've interacted with the camp staff at every visit, and by phone, and they have always been extremely... More

Traveled to this campground over July 4th week, have never been to Gettysburg but the pictures looked good so we thought we would give it a shot. HUGE MISTAKE!!! First of all our site was in the front of the campground which is right near the highway. The road noise was so loud that you had to yell when sitting... More

I have been visiting Gettysburg with friends and family for over 25 years. While I have stayed in numerous places over the years, I consistently stay at Drummerboy Camping Resort. I initially rented tent sights for anywhere from a weekend to a week and remembered having no grievences. As the town itself became a more popular vacation destination, the campground... More

We enjoyed our trip to Gettysburg but wished we had picked a smaller RV park. This park is extremely large and their security leaves at midnight. The groups that come there often know this fact . The parties start at midnight and there's no one there to monitor them The other issue we had was that while sightseeing our RV... More

My family has been camping at Drummerboy for 30+ years. Recently they have changed a lot of their policies and we will be looking elsewhere for next year. We are quiet family campers but Drummerboy is getting too expensive due to their policy changes. Our money will go further elsewhere.

I was very skeptic about our upcoming weekend getaway because of the bad reviews I read. We went with two other families (11 total) and stayed in one of the 3 bedroom deluxe cabins. The cabin was clean, the kitchenette had all of the important and useful kitchen items except for an oven, the bedrooms were clean. We did have... More
