About Penn Highlands Campground

Penn Highlands Campground is a family owned and operated campground in Russell, Pennsylvania, built out of a genuine love for the outdoors and the kind of camping that feels familiar. The kind where you take your time, wave to your neighbors, and settle into a rhythm that has nothing to do with schedules.

This campground exists because we believe there is value in slowing down. In stepping outside. In having a place that feels steady and welcoming, whether it's your first visit or one of many. Penn Highlands is not meant to feel rushed or overdesigned. It's meant to feel comfortable and cared for.

We run Penn Highlands as a place to share, not just manage. Every part of the campground is shaped by the same mindset we bring to camping ourselves. Keep it simple. Take care of the space. Make people feel welcome. Let the campground be a place people return to, not just pass through.

Being family owned means we are present. We are the ones here, the ones answering questions, the ones keeping the grounds in shape, and the ones who notice when a familiar face comes back. That connection is what makes Penn Highlands what it is.

Penn Highlands Campground is, at its heart, about enjoying the outdoors, sharing space with others, and having a place that feels good to come back to year after year.
