Take Exit 4B off of I-80 and follow Route 18 north for approximately 5 mi. Make a left at the stoplight onto Lamor Road (the intersection with Dollar General and D'Onofrio's Food Center at the corners). Stay straight on that road for 2 mi; Lamor Road will eventually turn into South Walnut Street. Make a right onto East High Street. Continue on this road where you will cross a one-lane steel bridge. Just up the hill from that, you will come to a "y" in the road. Veer right at this intersection and make another right shortly after that. This is the entrance to the Mahaney Outflow Rec Area and the picnic shelter and parking lot will be just around the corner to the right.
Highway access
The campground is accessible via I-80, with Exit 4B leading to Route 18 north, approximately 5 miles away.
Policies & Rules
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
