Bathhouse is usually pretty clean and serviced every day. Last visit it was a mess.
Park Rangers do drive by daily but never stop to check things out.

We always have a relaxing and restful visit at Outflow. The hosts are so helpful and friendly. The weather wasn't the best, but we still had a good time. The Dollar General store is close by, and the grocery store has the best supply of beautiful greeting cards and anything else you might need. Always run into interesting people that love camping just as much as we do!!

Camping at Outflow Campgrounds is Great. The bathrooms are always clean. The showers are very nice and the campgrounds are kept up. I have gone to other campgrounds that don't compare to Outflow. During the summer months, it is warm during the day and relatively cool at night, which means you don't have to use your AC all the time. There are plenty of places to eat, and the food is good.

Beautiful little campground. Weather was a bit rough to start but it cleared up by the weekend and enjoyed the natural beauty. I was very glad the campsites were large and easy to back into, The 110 didn't work, but I had an adaptor for 30v and that worked great. The shower building was a bit on the cold side, but the shower water was wonderfully hot. Showers were all nice and clean and always had TP in the stalls. Will consider for the future.

Impressed by the dam outflow and the roar it makes. I camped there to charge Tesla in a 50 amp spot. Worked just fine.

High water and noise was coming from the dam but I knew before I got there, no cell service but I knew that too. We love this campground especially for bike riding the 10 miles on the GAP trail to Ohiopyle. A very few sites have full hookup, most just have electricity but that is the way we like it. The hosts were great and kept the campsites very clean and the grass mowed.
