Excellent resource for folks looking for great tent camping spots in the Keystone State. The title really says it all – this book recommends the quiet and off the beaten path organized camping sites. My favorite thing about this book is that the author describes the individual sites available for camping and makes recommendations based on specific site amenities — close to running water, in the shade, privacy/screening from other campsites, out of the path to the restrooms for the rest of the camp site, etc. This makes it much less of a roll of the dice when reserving specific sites, especially through the Pennsylvania State Park system.

Especially liked the information on which campgrounds are dog friendly.
Would hate to get to a campground and find out Rover wasn’t welcome.

Just about all the information you would need to reserve a tent site in advance is contained in this book. Makes planning a trip very easy. I wish I had this resource years ago.
