Friendly people. Nice areas for tent campers amongst the RV campers. It was quiet at night and there is potable water and clean bathrooms for through-bikers on the Great Allegheny Passage trail. We had a flat and there is a cute town of Confluence nearby with a well-equipped bike shop. Rode into town to get pizza at night. Great camping spot for bike-packers on the GAP!

Hiker/biker campsite offered picnic tables, grass for tent set up, posts to hang food, clean bathrooms and showers. Also a place to walk to view the River. There are groceries in town with short bike ride.

The facilities were very nice. But the tent pads were gravel in the tent only area, a softer material would have been better. The showers and bathrooms were very nice. Unfortunately, we were back by a fence that had a private campsite on the other side and it was Friday night and they were having a large party. They did get quiet after 10 pm.

The hiker/biker sites are a welcome asset to the GAP trail. Appreciate the facility.

Camping pads do not accommodate tenters- can't pound stakes into the pad

Advanced, online only reservations required in an area where I had no service. As a cyclist camping with a hammock, there was no way of knowing which sites accommodate hammocks. Park host had a hot spot so I could register, but hammock supports in hike/bike area were too close together to use my hammock and tarp. Probably a great place to park an RV for a night if you have Starlink. Bathroom and shower facilities were pretty good.
