Very clean , quiet campground. Had water and electric. Camp sites were a little closer than I prefer. Tight fit getting my pickup parked on site. No room for two vehicles, few overflow parking close by. It could use another trail or two.

We love it here! The campground is clean, the sites are large and spaced nicely. The playgrounds are great, and the lake is beautiful. We highly recommend this campground and can't wait for our next trip here!

Loved the area. Great lake for kayaking. We enjoyed visiting the PA Grand Canyon and going on the Ole Covered Wagon.
