Mill Creek Camping Area is a peaceful, primitive tent-only campground along Mill Creek in Lancaster’s Central Park, just two miles from downtown. The 10-acre site has five campsites with water spigots, a portable toilet, and access to a clean park restroom open during the day, though no showers are available. Campers can take a short walk to the historic Eshelman Mill Iron Bridge. Camping is open from April 1 to October 31, and you must call or visit the Parks Office to make a reservation.
