Outflow Camping offers a beautiful, well-maintained campground with friendly hosts and clean facilities, making it a preferred choice for nature lovers and cyclists alike. Guests appreciate the scenic location near the bike trail and river, as well as the range of recreational activities available in the area. While some minor issues were mentioned, such as noise disturbances and proximity of campsites, the overall experience is positive, with many guests planning to return.
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 mi 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.
The hiker and biker section is not well defined and can get crowded. There wasn’t a clear check-in process, and I wasn’t sure who to show my reservation to. Know that if you camp here, there is only a shared campfire area and no designated tent areas.
Of all the campgrounds that I've been to Ouflow is by far my favorite. Bathrooms always clean nice showers. The campsites are great and the grounds are kept up very nicely.
Not happy because they canceled our reservation for not occupying the site( we arrived early next morning). Only to find we had been canceled, had to go onto Recreation.gov and reserve the site again.
I utilized the hammock camping posts while cycling on the GAP. The posts were placed a good distance apart, worked well. The bathrooms and showers are a decent walk away which is my largest complaint, but the facilities were clean and functional... the showers could use a better push button function but hey, they worked.
