Camping at Buckaloons is always a great experience for us. Sites are separated nicely although in the fall the vegetation between the sites isn't as full. But that is offset by the lack of campers.

Great site. Very nice hikes close by. Boat ramp right at campsite. Nice bathrooms, not as clean as those at Willow Bay on The Allegheny Reservoir. Very quiet campground.

This was our first time to Buckaloons on the recommendation of a friend and we will be going back! It is a beautiful area with flat wooded sites, close to the river, and the cleanest bathroom facilities I have ever seen at a campground. Thank you for a wonderful fall camping experience.

We have been going to Buckaloons for 22 years and my wife family has been going for 56 years. The sites are so nice. Everyone follows the rules or the camp host make sure everything runs smoothly.. between the 2 creeks and the river fishing is always an adventure for the kids!!

I loved camping here and the proximity to the Allegheny River. Sites are large and far apart in nice woody settings. Walking down to the river with morning coffee was delightful. The trail around the camping perimeter was a great find-a flowing wide creek along part of it. Will return when warmer to kayak the river. Self check in, one central nice bathhouse with good showers and smaller, simpler ones scattered around sites. Need to drive to hiking and waterfalls. Fall foliage stunning.
