Our first outing with our new camper was great! The camp grounds were very nice and the host, Tim, was so nice. Beautiful walking trails along the Allegheny River. Pet friendly too! We will definitely go back.

We love camping here. This was our second trip. The first time was 2018. The color of the leaves were even more beautiful in 2020. The location is ideal for hiking, site seeing and visiting a few museums. It did rain. but that is not the campground's fault. I was so happy to have a camp fire, hot shower and a trail right outside my door.
