Excellent time while visiting! A tree came down and the camp host was quick to take care of it so we wouldn’t be impacted on our last day!

Our first time here with our 2 dogs. Beautiful camping area and well maintained. The restroom/shower area was cleaned daily. The roads are also well maintained and nice for walking. We were with a few others and next time we will explore more. Looking forward to returning.

Two times we had to drive miles out of the way to get ice because the ice machine was always locked. The view looking over to the allegheny was much blocked because everything was over grown.

Nice park. Grass sites. Main bathrooms were clean. Center bath being repaired. Camp hosts exceptional. Not much of a day use area. Many hiking and biking trails within 30 minutes.
