This place was incredible! Friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful place that's well maintained. Our sites were down near the water. Nice place to swim. The sites are not too close together so you get some privacy.

Roomy campsites. Great access to the lake. I would definitely give this campsite a five star review, but the bathrooms are absolutely deplorable. We camp at Dewdrop twice a year, and each year, the bathrooms get works and worse. This year, one “fix” was to wrap the sinks in both the mens and the ladies rooms with garbage bags and place an “out of order” sign on it. There has been absolutely no effort to update, repair, or even CLEAN the bathrooms. The showers may be scalding or cold, depending on who knows what. I actually threw away my shower shoes after my most recent stay…that’s how bad the showers are. It truly makes me NOT want to camp there. It’s a real shame.

Absolutely beautiful views and many access points to the water. Great place to camp, but the bathrooms are horrible and makes it hard if you bring young kids. The park needs to fix the bathrooms. We stayed 4 days recently and we tent camp. Temps dipped into the 30s over night and we couldn't even take a hot shower to warm up. I had 3 kids ages, 8, 4, and 1 and the bathroom situation made it very rough.

Recently we stayed at Dew Drop for the second time. The camp ground is located on the Allegheny River Reservoir tucked into a cove. It has exceptional camping sites for tents, RV’s, and even hammocks if you so choose. Parking on the camp sites is adequate for 2 vehicles. The camp sites are well maintained and have a fire ring that includes a grill top if you would like to cook over fire or even use charcoal. You can buy ice and firewood on site. There are other nearby places that do off firewood for sale. You should not bring firewood from outside of the Nat Forest area due to invasive species. There is flushing restrooms and separate shower rooms. This camp ground is very busy so it is a good idea to bring your own toilet paper. The showers are well used so bring flip flops or other forms of feet protection. Kayaking, Boating, and other water sports and activities are popular and common. There is many close places in the are to explore while hiking, biking, and just taking scenic drives. Including but not limited to Jakes Rocks overlook and trail system, the Kinzu Dam, The Kinzu Skywalk Bridge and many more trails as well as a beach just a short drive away. We stayed on site 31. It is a little bit down a hill to set up camp and tent from the parking spots but overall a great choice in our opinion and we will go back to Dew Drop again.

We camped at this campground for the first time and we enjoyed it SO much. The restrooms are decent. There is a boat launch. The sites are maintained well. They also allow “vicious” breeds. You are literally in the mountains and it is so peaceful! There is no cell service so you really get to be away from all the hustle for a weekend.

Spacious campground. Clean facilities. Camp hosts are awesome. Mtb trails start right out of the campground.

If you're looking for a normal tent camping experience this is a good place but beware the massive amount of generator run campers that exist in the tent sites.

I recommend camping for everyone. Get back to nature from time to time... Leave your electronics at home.

By far our favorite primitive campground. Always a great experience.
