There are several state parks that are within an hours drive of the festival site;
Go to http://www.dcnr.state.pa.us/stateparks/
Prince Gallitzin (1 hr 15min)
Shawnee (50 min)
Blue Knob (1 hr)
Laurel Hill State Park (1hr 5 min)
there are a few small RV/type campgrounds a half hour away or so but I am not familiar with them. I've only stayed at Shawnee a long time ago as a kid but Prince Gallitzin and Shawnee are highly reccommended by locals.
