We loved this little campground. It was tucked away and very quiet. Great woods where we rode our bikes. Verizon cell service was very good. Campground hosts were very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back.

Very nice place to camp. There are flush toilets- but no drinking water.

Love camping here, primitive with no potable water and no showers. It is always a nice stay, fishing and kayaking. Quiet and peaceful, nature always visible.
Not impressed my last stay, lot needed mowed, grass was about 6 to 8 inches tall, damp, attracted a lot of mosquitoes.

We enjoyed our stay. Nice, clean camping area. Restrooms were very clean. Good trails for walking. Creek was clean. Grass was well kept. We had a beautiful campfire and loved looking at the stars in the clear sky after a brief thunderstorm. We will be back, host was very helpful.

Very nice campground and the camp hosts were great! Unfortunately, the bathroom facilities are less than desirable and no showers. Very nice place to stay if you're a kayaker or fisherman, as the Tionesta Creek is accessible from the campground.

The PA Firefly Festival Glow & Know Campout on June 23, 2021 was a great success. We had good weather and the group of 12 enjoyed the programs and fireflies. Thank you to the campground hosts, who supported the event and kept other campers informed of the firefly activity in the area. The Kellettville Campground is ideal for viewing all many different species of fireflies including Synchronous and Chinese Lanterns. The use of the pavilion for the slide show presentation was much appreciated.
