Kanopolis Lake Venango

This is a beautiful Corp of Engineers campground with several loops of campsites of various sizes, clean bathhouses with hot showers, trails, and amazing lake views. The host are very nice and welcoming. Some sites have electric and some others include a water connection. Sanitary dumps as well. There are many different campgrounds on lake Kanopolis, but this is the best choice. (Some reviews here seem to be for other campgrounds).

The park rangers were not helpful, nosey and buggy. I've been to a lot of lakes and have never experienced such ignorance anywhere else. The wildlife, rocks, crystals, fossils and water is by far better here than anywhere else. The best time ever just exploring. If you can get passes the rump rangers you will be back time and time again.

Had a very good weekend. Not very crowded. Got a real good campsite close to the water. Good spot to park the boat.

This beach is alright but it has no readily accessible restrooms or trees to provide shade, nor tables to set up at. If you want to use the restroom, or play at the playground you have to hike up a steep sand slope first…..(and pack all your stuff up if you don’t have someone to stay with it). Additionally, dogs are not allowed.

We live out here on south side of lake. Cousin lives in vanango side. It was nice. Very concerned about the dead fish floating in the water. What's killing them?? Farm chemicals??? Illegal dumping?? Scary!!
