East Branch Campground

We stayed on site 12 it had was level, and had a gravel pad. Close to bathroom. The bathrooms were cleaned everyday. The showers had hot water, and were clean. The staff in the office were excellent. Beautiful area for hiking, fishing, boating and photography. A lot to see in the surrounding area. The only mild complaints are no potable water, (but not a problem just bring enough water with you) and no wash station for cleaning dishes. We would definitely camp here again.

Nice campground but very disappointed about the brown, non-potable water and not being able to shower.

We booked site 20, on your description states that my camper should have fit. It is 33ft. This site is not flat with both approaches uphill. We could not get into site. Tried but drugged my rear bumper and bent the spare tire holder. We did not even stay and ruined our weekend. We will never be back to this location for camping purposes. You need to review you site descriptions.

After being closed down for so many years, they are really doing a nice job getting it back up and running. The potable water is an issue and some of the roads and entrances into the sites could use a little care, but it's coming back nicely! Camp hosts were wonderful and informed. Campgrounds are in such short supply in the area, that when this is done it will be the crowning jewel. The sites are large and level, the power is solid and the bathrooms are new and spotless.. Great place that's only going to get better.

We enjoyed staying at this campground it was very quiet. Nice shady site 17 kind of on the edge of the campground. Non electric

Enjoyed campground.

Nice place, we liked the separation from other sites. Hilarious story to share. Arrived at our reserved site to find another guy and his wife had just backed in. Still hooked up. Only had awning down. He was friendly and left right away. For whatever reason decides not to retract awning as he moves to next site. My buddy says as is becomes apparent he is going to leave the awning down "this isn't going to go well". He's almost at the next spot and sure enough, clips a tree with the awning. Causally gets out, assesses the situation, backs up, and tries again. Best part - awning is electric - push button retract. The wife looked jacked. Happy camping!

Our camp site was perfect and the guys that came around and hung the names on the sites to reserve for campers, where extremely informative and very friendly! One complaint thou, we was in camp site 19 and our last nite we was there, a couple of cars with very LOUD mufflers were racing up and down the road (hill) where you drive down into to launch the boats. This went on for about an hour and it was around midnite. Didnt want to complain but someone should monitor that hill after dark, as someone thought it was a drag strip for their loud cars.

If you rent a cabin, be sure to bring a table and chairs in addition to your air mattress and bedding. Also note the the water is not potable so bring plenty of water.

East Branch Dam Campground is a beautiful location for camping. It is located about 16 miles from Ridgway, Pennsylvania, which is a very nice small town. Appalachian Arts Studio is located there at the top of Boot Jack. They sponsored the Chainsaw Carvers Rendezvous in April 2022. It was a great success!

There are some really nice restaurants in Kane, Pennsylvania, which is just a short commute from the campground.
