We only stopped for one night. Our sight was level; all sights were well separated. The power was reliable. The night was quiet which we appreciated after a day’s driving. The signage could have been better and the pavement through the campground was broken in places. We would stay here again. 30’ motorhome.

Nice quiet campsite #20 nestled in the woods. Sites are spaced out and roomy. Clean showers but no potable water, so bring your own for cooking. Visited Kinzua Bridge and Zippo Museum during our stay.

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 33 ft. 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.
