This is a pure gem and a very beautiful place, the camp host was especially helpful when our fur baby got sick. I highly recommend this campground for everyone even the kids will have a ball.

Please get some wifi. There is no cell phone service at Outflow.
I see no reason to require reservations in advance for bicycle tourists. Many places have a hiker-biker area where you can just show up. When bike touring, my schedule often changes due to weather, repairs, and unforseen circumstances.

Nice campground, very convenient if you are traveling on the GAP trail, or just using the trail for hiking/biking. Quiet, good space for setting up a tent in the hiker/biker area. Only compliant is the restroom which is clean but rather shabby.

beautiful campground, well cared for and quiet. could've been a little more upfront about allowable tent setup areas. As it was we were forced to move our tents from the open grass to the gravel parking pad. Also apparently do not allow clotheslines or anything to be tied to a tree?

Great campground right on the Youghiogheny. Fishing is very good with water temperature at 62°F. This part of the river is pretty calm and the is a nice paddle from the campground to the Ramcat pullout two miles downstream.
