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.
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.
Needed help With a problem and Ranger Shaylin Dresher went above and beyond to help me she gets 5 stars from me.
Thanks to your Ranger Dresher and to the Camp host TERRY. Outflow is a Great Campground and is kept up very well, bathrooms and campsites are always clean.
We love this campground! It’s within walking distance of great places to eat like The Lucky Dog Cafe, Mitch’s Fuel and Food and the Outflow Soft Freeze. The site are level and not right on top of one another. They have clean bathrooms with hot showers. Our kids loved the playground too! It’s also close to the GAP bike trail and the Yough Lake. When the outflow is flowing, it provides great white noise to sleep to also. We love this campground and plan to return again!
Nice campgrounds, sizable lots and mellow folks. Walk a few yards to the Youghegeny river and fish, drive around, up and across the damn for swimming or stop in at the icecream shop just around the corner from everything from a sundae to chicken fingers or burgers. Don't forget to drive over to Ohiopyle to see the cascading water or book a rafting trip then make sure to see fallingwaters.org, a Frank Lloyd Wright designed house. I you can handle it make sure to spend some time at the flight 83 memorial. Take tissues!
Never knew PA was so beautiful!
I really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful campground. Initially I had to shift my reservation due to a problem with the water system at the campground, but the rangers were very friendly and communicated regularily on the repair process. This campground is meticulously maintained, and the camp hosts was extremely friendly helpful and attentive to the campers. If you love biking and/or kayaling, this place is for you. Located right on the GAP trail, tou can cycle yo your hearts content along the Casselman and Youghiogheny rivers. Also a launch reamp right in the campground lets you canoe kayak or raft to either Ramcat, or Ohiopyle on the gorgeous Youghiogheny river. The quaint town of Confluence is located within walking or biking distance from the campground. Just on the other side of the Dam is Youghiogheny River Lake where tou can launch you boat and go all the way to Maryland, or enjoy a cool swim at the sandy swimming beach. We camped at Outflow Camping in a Motorhome.
Nice park but camping sites are close together and to tight. No water on site so if you stay long enough you have to move your rig to get water or to dump. Overall it was ok, there is bike riding and fishing. The little town is very interesting with lots of history.
