Not very well maintained. The bathroom was dirty and smelly. Gate doesn't close after dark and someone arrived at 3:30 am in the lot next to us and woke everybody up. Then there were trains passing by before and after 5 am.

Seems like a very good campground for RVs. Few trees, camp sites are close together, and campers are prohibited from hanging anything from the few trees So not a great campground for hammock campers. Bathrooms are very nice, and hot water is plentiful

Lovely, peaceful & relaxing at this campground-
The camp hosts were simply the best! They were attentive to their guests and took good care of this facility. Thanks for your hospitality!
It’s a short, scenic ride to Ohiopyle.

Excellent camping grounds for a nice getaway. Would of got all stars, but the bathroom needed some upgrades and cleaned a little better. But it was definitely good and usable.
Check the place out!!!!

Nice site for bikers on the GAP trail. Convenient to local stores and restaurants. Decent showers and restrooms.

This is a very fine campground in a very nice region with beautiful scenery, many possible activities, and a great location. We enjoyed our camp here and will definitely return in the next season for longer stays. The only niggles we have are: (1) the season here ends too soon - end of first week of October - a great month for camping, (2) every site is provided with a super fireplace and it seems everyone wants a fire 24x7. The smoke is often very heavy and could be a problem for folks with respiratory issues. (3) The campsites are super engineered except for the black water dump pipes - they don't have the usual campground screw-in connection to allow a seamless and reliable connection for your gray/black water dumping. This means you have to hold your dump pipe in the doughnut adapter for any time your are emptying your gray or black water tanks. Not cool. Everything else is over-engineered except for this necessity. I would donate $ to the COE to have this done right. Cellular with AT&T was very good. Two and Three bars but 5G and very fast.

I stayed at the Outflow Campground (in the Biker/Hiker area) while riding the GAP trail. Excellent campground with good showers that were quickly warm with good water pressure. A good restaurant a short walk away was very welcome. The price was great! I would consider camping here with my pop-up trailer as well.
