Drummer Boy Camping Resort

"Great location! LOTS of sites so prepare to walk if you didn't rent a golf cart (they run out). Mini golf closed at 6pm on Saturday evening, other places allow it all night. Camp store didn't have much on the shelves to offer, the snack shop was never open. Sites are spacious!"

"We have come now on 3 separate occasions to spend time with seasonal family. We have always liked drummer boy in the past, however this time things have changed. The waterslide & hot tub were closed for the season, our granddaughter was very upset not to use the slide. The pool behind office is in major disrepair and cause injuries to campers. Its a shame the waterfalls are gone. We stayed in the cottages. They were clean enough for the stay, but plumbing could use some maintenance. 1 toilet clogged regularly, maybe something wrong with the pipes, the fridge was large & in charge for a stay of 4 people. That was great, but seemed over compensating, compared to The 2nd cottage had a very small dorm fridge for 8 people. So barely any space for cold items. Had to buy coolers to accommodate food & drinks for the crew. A larger fridge would be ideal for more people in cottage than for small crew cottage a dorm fridge would be more suitable. Cottage 6 had an amazing mattress, but cottage 4 had the worst. The floor would be more comfortable. Needless to say we did not sleep well and had body aches for our whole stay. Some cottages have no parking for your vehicle, so I feel it forces you to rent a golf cart to get around when it should be choice. You have to park you vehicle far from your sight which is incredibly inconvenient. Some areas around the cottages with no car parking space can be cleared out to make room for your vehicle. Some rules regarding pets are not enforced. A large dog of 3 dogs jumped fencing clearly designed for 5lbs dogs not 50lb or larger, not secured with a leash & no owner on site came after my granddaughter walking our dog. Thankfully no dog fights ensued, but my granddaughter was traumatized by the incident thinking a fight was about to happen. Due to no trust in pet owners being responsible she can no longer walk our dogs here alone. Sight 19. Yup i just threw the owner under the bus. The activities are fun, but could use more creative thinking considering the cost of nightly stays. I gave 5 starts for the employee, always very gracious and accommodating to camper’s needs. Thank you for that. The rest i gave low stars for maintenance."

"AVOID! You have been warned! We stayed here once last month. This place is essentially a trailer park. This place is not maintained or cleaned much. Sites are tight and not picked up or mowed much. The “LOCALS” are not nice living within the compound. Very Expensive for the quality. I’m all for paying good money for a nice campground but this one is not worth the money. The pools are dirty and water slide is not working. WIFI is not free and for the price it is very slow."

"We really enjoyed the campground, the closeness to everything in town, the amenities, and everything it offered (food trucks are a great idea). We were however, VERY disappointed in the shower house on the main entrance road. Bathrooms behind weren’t bad but the shower house up front were just awful. They were so dirty and small in the stall that we were afraid to touch the walls or curtain due to the amount of mold everywhere (we wished we had our own bottle of bleach to spray everything down). We were afraid to sit on the toilet and there were no seat covers (good thing we at least travel with Clorox bleach wipes). A couple of the seats were very wobbly and one had feces smeared on it and it took 24hrs to get cleaned. When we were checking out, we mentioned it to staff and the only response we got was that it was scheduled for remodeling. Very unacceptable. We’ve been traveling around camping this summer (4th place) and this one by far has been the worst! Our site on Custers Circle was a nice spot but not very level and I don’t know how many times we tripped over roots and tree stumps. Sure glad no one got hurt though. Glad this will be our last trip to Gettysburg."

"This campground was definitely the worst we've ever stayed at in this price range. We paid around $165.00 per night for a supposedly premium pull-through site. However, only about 2/3 of the site was level, and it was also quite narrow. To make matters worse, the site was covered in pea gravel and weeds. We chose this campground because their photos showcased various amenities that we thought our grandkids would enjoy. Unfortunately, the water slide, hot tub, and snack bar were all closed during our stay. Additionally, the pools were cloudy and uninviting. Even the playgrounds had very little to offer. To make matters worse, the dumpsters on the premises were overflowing and emitted a foul smell. We were relieved that our site wasn't located close to them. The only positive aspect of this campground was the friendly staff they had. In summary, considering the price we paid, this campground was a major disappointment. The site conditions, lack of amenities, and unsightly surroundings made for an unpleasant experience. The only redeeming quality was the courteous staff."
