About
Reeds Gap State Park is a 220-acre wilderness retreat in the New Lancaster Valley of Mifflin County, Pennsylvania. Large hemlocks and white pines create a cool, shaded canopy over Honey Creek, which flows through the heart of the park. The intimate 14-site campground is designed exclusively for tent camping, making it ideal for those seeking a quieter, more primitive experience without RVs or trailers. The campground offers modern amenities including flush toilets and hot showers at the shower house near Parking Lot B. Potable water is available at site #6. The park provides opportunities for fishing in Honey Creek, hiking, hunting in season, and wildlife watching. Educational programs run from May through September. The park is pet-friendly with designated pet areas. Day-use facilities include ADA-accessible picnic tables and restrooms. While the park itself is open year-round from sunrise to sunset, the campground operates seasonally from mid-April through mid-October.
