We just returned home from a late season visit to Hickory Hollow Campground. What a beautiful well maintained park! Lovely scenery, spacious campsites, warm and friendly staff. If you’re visiting the Laurel Highlands, we highly recommend staying here.

Great campground, nice sites….we stayed in 104 and it was great!! Bathrooms are immaculate and the staff is super friendly! There isn’t much nearby, but that’s what we wanted!!! Did the covered bridges tour, visited Coke Run Falls and the Flight 93 Memorial. If you’re looking for a quiet, pretty, well maintained campground this is a great place!

We stayed here overnight because of its proximity to the Flight 93 memorial, which we visited earlier that day. This campground was nice. The section we were in didn't have much shade, but there were a few large trees nearby. If you are in a larger motor home with a tow vehicle, this is a very rural area, with narrow winding roads, so be aware. Getting to and from the closest major highway took took a long time through narrow mountainous roads. It was not exactly convenient, but we appreciated having a peaceful place to stay after we visited the memorial.

A relaxing 3 night stay! Check in was easy and staff was super nice, the camp store is well supplied and super cute! Pull thru sites are in an area, and there are some back in sites along the back, as well as a long term area that’s a seperate area of the park. It’s all well maintained, clean and beautiful. I am a night time shower person and the bathhouses were clean each time I went. My dogs loved the fenced area-it was full sun most of the day so we used the cool evenings to play there and bike around the little pond! Great stay, thank you!

Update!!! Beautiful campground! Easily accessible dump station. Very friendly employees. I saw a beautiful, clean & clear swimming pool that looked very inviting! I only stopped for the dump station this time, but from my experience today, I will definitely return! Update!!!! My family and I stayed the night in the campground. They had live music, bingo, ice-cream trailers, and a beautiful pool. It was amazingly refreshing. No lifeguard on duty. The pool closed at 7 pm, but it was light out till 9 pm. An evening swim would have been nice!
