Lodging Information
for 2026
Most housing at camp are cabins with fully equipped bathrooms and private showers. Each cabin can accommodate up to about 10 people, but we try to keep the group smaller unless a large group asks to be together. Attendees are bunked according to requests, and “newbies” are integrated with experienced Goldstock people. Living in a camp setting has become the most fun part of the weekend for many Goldstockers and many new friendships have been forged at a Goldstock weekend! We strongly urge you to give camp life a try so you don’t miss out on anything.
For those who have special needs, there are limited private rooms available. There are also some motels and B & B’s in the area and some of those establishments near camp are listed below, but most attendees would tell you it’s much more fun to be on campus and not miss any of the action!
When you register, you have the opportunity to:
- add more people to your registration (eg, partners, family members, friends)
- list other registrants who you would like to be your “bunkmates” (eg. your best buddies that you see once a year at Goldstock and for whom you are not registering).
Use the text boxes to add any information you would like us to know.
See our Registration Information page for more info.
RV and Camping at Goldstock
General information:
Goldstock offers unique opportunities for “camping” on site. You can use your personal or rented RV.
If you choose to RV at Goldstock, keep in mind that Camp Towanda is primarily a children’s summer camp. A shore power electrical hookup is not available, but a generator will be provided. A garden hose is available to fill your tanks. There is NO DUMPSITE on site..
Keep an open mind and be flexible and your RV experience will be like no other. Like the rest of Goldstock Camp, the RV helpers are volunteers and do their best to assist.
The area above is reserved for RVs only. Once at camp, you will be directed to this location.
The RV area is flat. Although RVs need some form of leveling, whether it is 2×8 boards, the plastic stacking blocks or the fancy hydraulic levelers. As an RV’er you will be expected to bring your own materials for leveling. There is no guarantee that there will be any lumber around camp for your use.
RV Electric:
Generators will be provided for use by RVs.
Bring your own long, heavy-duty power cords. Suggestion is a minimum of 12 gauge 100’ extension cords and adapters to fit your RV.
Consider solar power, onboard generators or quiet standalone generators (Honda type).
Potable water:
You will not be able to have a standard “water hookup” at your campsite. But there is a hose with potable water you can use. Of course, it’s always wise to bring full freshwater tanks with you.
Note:
There is no dump station or sewer facilities at this camp. There are commercial campgrounds in the surrounding areas, and the closest one is the Honesdale KOA.
If you do not want to use your holding tanks, there are bathrooms in the main buildings as well as showers.
