Site needs work to bring it more level very uneven and hard to find level areas for tent and shelter. Fire pit ring so high need to stand over fire to enjoy heat,table so heavy to move away from fire pit so as to use it within shelter and is in poor condition to use complete table top as it is bowed up on one end.

We enjoyed our 11-day stay at the Outflow. The rangers were very friendly and present throughout our stay. The restrooms were kept clean and the camp sites and grounds were well maintained. Although we were not able to get in much fishing due to high water, we enjoyed bike rides on the beautiful trail, visited Ohiopyle, made many trips to the Outflow Soft Freeze and dined at several restaurants up on route 40. We are looking forward to our next trip.

the outflow got a 3 because of the weather. You can't control that. It is our favorite place to go so we will always go there any day! Love it there'

Campground is across the street from the GAP. There are some sites with electric and water, but most do not have that. Rather open sites, with little screening. There are shade trees, but the sites are still fairly sunny. There is a stand that will recharge cell phones, not sure about e -bike batteries. The town is within walking or biking distance of the campground.

Th campground is fine if you don't need a cell phone or internet for anything. We had a family emergency just before arriving. We had no way to communicate with anyone without going in to sit at the gas station in town. Even that was sketchy. After 3 years of fulltime travel this is only the 3rd time we have had problem anywhere in the country.
