We stay at the group site every year for our annual kayak trip. We go in May because the creeks are usually high and this is a central location. It’s also right off the Allegheny River so you can launch upstream and take out at camp. The facilities all well maintained but could definitely use an upgrade. I like that the group site has easy access to water and an outhouse. The only thing we don’t like is there is no access to electricity at the group site. So make sure you pack plenty of power banks. Lots of wildlife, and beautiful scenery.

Our campsite and the rest of the grounds was well maintained. The grass was cut and there wasn’t any trash lying about. The bathrooms were clean every day we were there and the showers worked well and never ran out of hot water. The campground hosts were friendly and worked hard to provide a great experience while we were there. We would definitely back. Especially if we knew the same hosts were taking care of the campground.

Our 3rd annual visit to Buckaloons and once again, excellent. Ron, Karen, and Phoenix (camp hosts) did a phenomenal job of maintaining the facilities. Facilities infrastructure needs investment, but the big woods are spectacular.

We had a very private site. A green heron landed in a tree above us. First time we ever seen one of them.
