Great campground situated on the Youghiogheny river. Spacious semi shaded, clean bathrooms and quiet! We stayed for two nights and enjoyed going to Ohiopyle to see some waterfalls. We also took a bike ride along the Allegheny bike passage.

A beautiful campgrounds-very well maintained. The sites were relatively close to each other but the gravel parking area are huge. I especially liked how close the river was. Non-campers are able to drive through and access the river so I imagine it could get quite busy.

Great location along GAP Trail. Clean and well maintained. My only gripe are the showers that require a press every 20 seconds to keep the water flowing. The temperature and pressure were good.

Camping was good but I paid twice for because I forgot to enter my senior lifetime pass. I canceled the 2nd night when I discovered I paid full price and reserved and paid again using the discount. I still have not received credit for the cancellation

I won’t go back to Outflow over July 4th again because of the people setting off fireworks in the campground next door. We specifically picked a state park because fireworks aren’t allowed there and our dogs are afraid of fireworks. But others weren’t restricted and it was awful for the dogs.
