Reviews of Sky Meadows Campground
"We stayed at the Buddy group site with a scout group. As mentioned it’s a small hike into camp. Really nice camp with pit toilets, fire wood for sale, and a water source. We had a great time. Tent pads are a nice size. We fit 6 tents on the pads available."
"Yes, it is 1.06 mile hike from the overnight parking lot, but is not bad. The first 2/3 is a trail through the woods. It barely has any slope. Then you get on a service road. The first half of that part is also fairly flat. The second half of the service road has a good slope to it, so pace yourself. The campsites have a very good amount of space between them. Most of the sites can't see each other. They even have an AT site next to one of the vault toilets. The two vault toilets are clean and well maintained. There is firewood. $6 for 10 log wedges. Plus 2 water tanks with non potable water. Plenty of hiking trails in the park. I'm a wimp, so I just did the hike to the campsite. The sounds of nature was much louder than the distant road and the high flying planes. I saw several rabbits. I did not see any bears, but there were plenty of signs about them being in the area. I was a little confused about the reservation website for the primitive/red sites. I called the reservation number, and they were very helpful. Don't worry if you get there after office hours. They leave a packet for you with instructions. There is an envelope in the packet you fill out and put in a box over at the main entrance guard shack. It is right next to the overnight parking lot. Remember to hang the parking pass on the rear view mirror, and take the rest of the packet with you. It has maps, area information, and a piece of paper to clip to the camp site's number pole. I called the park to be nice and let them know I would get there after hours. They were very helpful and told me about the packet and parking. All-in-all, a pleasant experience. This is going on my list of sites to do again."
"Clean, well managed state park primitive campground. All amenities as advertised: Pit toilets, trashcans, pump water good. At our site: pea gravel tent pad, fire pit, bear box, table, lantern post."
"NOTE: You hike 1 mile to the campsites, pack accordingly. Camp sites are well kept with level tent pads, cooking firepits, and bear boxes. Very easy access to hiking trails including the AT. There is no potable water and bathrooms are primitive."
"I can't say enough good things about the camping experience here. Rangers were helpful and friendly. There was a show at the amphitheater that was informative. It is about a mile hike in from the parking lot so that was nice if you are just getting into back country camping and want to give your gear a shakedown. We were well prepared for ticks and bugs and had no problems there. Hiked up to the overlook and back around the AT and down to camp again before the evening show. All trails were well maintained and marked. No problems at all. Got back to camp and a ranger even came to inform us we had left a dome light on in our car! Was able to hike back down and rectify that so we didn't have a dead battery in the morning. Bathrooms are about what you would expect. Nothing fancy but serviceable. There is a well on-site (non-potable). We used it with our sawyer filter with no issues. Sites have a picnic table and fire pit with grate and are round pea gravel pads."
