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!

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.

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.
