It was highly disappointing that the bathrooms were not open yet. The trash dumpster was also filled and trash was laying on the ground beside it. We have camped here before on that same weekend and the bathrooms were always open before

There isn't much for to do at Kelletville making the outflow campground a better option for those with kids. Kelletville does offer quiet and easy access to good trout fishing.

We had a great stay here. The host Mike was great and very helpful. This is a basic campground with no power and no water at site. We came with a full water tank, and luckily so, as other campers said the water was awful. It’s a quiet serene campground hidden in the Allegheny National Forest that picks up on the weekends. Don’t forget to visit Cougar Bobs if they happen to be open during your visit. Sites are pretty level and many are long enough for us to not have to unhook.

Campsite 5 was very nice and grounds were well kept which was very much appreciated. Disappointed with the bathroom facilities due to active rodents and overall cleanliness and condition of sinks, toilets,
doors, etc. Would like to see a new bathhouse to include a shower as this is a gem of a campground which I plan to visit again this fall.

It’s a good campsite, toilets available, unfortunately no showers. Great that you can book one night only - most other places require you to book all weekend

Campground was clean and quiet. The sites are large and level. There is access to the river for fishing and swimming.

Clean and quiet campground. 20 minutes or so to Tionesta and nearby many trails and other attractions. Lightning bugs were abundant during our visit in mid-July. Minister Creek trail system (~8 miles total) is about 20 minutes away. Also the North Country National Scenic Trail leaves from nearby the campground. This is a long distance trail so you can hike as long as you'd like and return the same way or use two vehicles to hike longer in one direction.
