Campers looking for a family-friendly getaway for all ages should be on the lookout for a Jellystone Park RV center. In the 2024 RV campground edition of USA Today’s 10Best Readers Choice Awards, three Jellystone Park locations made the list, with the highest only coming in second to a getaway in California.
Jellystone Park Pelahatchie, MS
Highest among the group in the second position is the Jellystone Park Pelahatchie in Pelahatchie, Mississippi. Located 30 miles east of the state’s capital, the RV park is open year-round and features sites both inland and lakeside. But it’s not just the amazing lakeside views that keep families coming back. Guests have full access to fishing and minigolf all season long, as well as a swimming pool and splashpad to play in during the summer months.
Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park in Mill Run, PA
Coming in fourth is Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park in Mill Run, featuring over 80 RV campsites with full hookups. Campers of all ages can enjoy a range of activities, from mini-golf and a game room to full-size paintball and laser tag fields. Be sure to plan your trip around the summer months, as many of the attractions are only open between Memorial Day and Labor Day.
North Texas Jellystone Park, Burleson, TX
The final Jellystone RV park, in sixth place, is the North Texas Jellystone Park in Burleson, Texas, just outside the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. The park features both an indoor and outdoor pool, water park, laser tag center, and scheduled theme activities for everyone to join in on the fun. Although many of the activities are within walking distance, golf cart rentals are available to explore the expansive park.
Other RV Parks on USA Today’s 10Best Readers Choice Awards List
Taking the top spot in the 10Best Readers Choice Awards among RV parks is the Inn Town Campground in Nevada City, California. Located between the South Yuba River State Park and Tahoe National Forest, the small resort only has 15 RV spots with full hookups. Beyond camping, the site offers outdoor movie nights, and is within walking distance of a historic Chinese cemetery and the Nevada County Narrow Gauge Railroad Museum.
Other award-winning RV parks include the Camp Fimfo Texas Hill Country resort outside of San Antonio; Spacious Skies Campgrounds in Littleton, Massachusetts; and the Fernwood Resort in Big Sur, California.
