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.

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

This camping resort was a very peaceful, relaxing place to put your feet after walking the battle field all day. We rented a golf cart, which made going from the two pools, hot tub and our cabin alot nicer. The cabin was very nice, and very clean. It had a full set of dishes and cookware. The porch on the...
