My family of 8 went tent camping here. We had 2 adjacent camp sites. The spaces were well maintained, the bathrooms were super clean and easy to access. The outflow was gorgeous! We watched a heron fish for his dinner and enjoyed the sunset. There’s an Army Corps of Engineers table where you can charge your phone and we thought that was pretty cool. It was really quiet and we had an amazing time!
Like all camp grounds, people have dumped cats so 2 really shy kitties came out after dark. I wish I’d have brought a little kibble to feed them. They didn’t dig in anything or cause any problems but they were there.

This was my second stay at this campsite while riding the GAP trail. Quiet, convenient, and has all of the amenities needed for an overnight stay.

We've been here before. Clean, quiet and on GAP trail. A quick bike or walk to Confluence, a charming little town where people actually live! Want action? Short drive to Ohiopyle where, mostly, tee-shirts live alongside river outfitters, bike rentals, GAP and restaurants.

Camped in group area 1-A. Great experience, grounds always clean when we arrive, bathrooms always clean and are cleaned everyday (and now cleaned at 11 instead of 9 or 10!) Area is far enough away from main camping area to allow for noisy group campers. Camp host visits are friendly and helpful. Campground is quiet. Water and electric supplied are part of the camping fee instead of extra. Just a great overall experience.
