Kayaked from Kinzua Dam to here Sept 15 2020 and stayed at 61. The boat ramp is the only way to haul your yak to the campsites, and it is quite steep. The sites 59, 60, and 61 are located close to the ramp - maybe 200ft or so, and are lined up close to each other with not much separation or privacy. But they are clean with picnic tables and fire rings, but no electric.
Toilet is very close and clean. Water same. Short walk to buy firewood from the camp host and to deposit trash.
Sites are about 20 ft above river level so you are not on the water. These sites are close to the group camping area, so check this out before you go. Overall a good place to camp on a multi-day river trip.

The campgrounds were very clean, plenty of wild life (squirrels, chipmunks, turkeys, hawks, eagles) were readily observed. The hosts were active and friendly. Campsites are relatively private. Be aware of the speed bumps, they are large and plentiful.

We have camped here 2 times this year and have been slightly disappointed. There has been amplified music well into midnight and the 2nd time a very large group in about 6 campsites and a whole lot of kids screaming and yelling all day and into the night. Used to be very nice and quiet there.
