Hi. If you like listening to the rude people who stay here waking you up intentionally with weedwacking and lawn mowers at 9am, this is the place. I even said something to them and they got their whole family in on it. They started lawn mowing with the weed wacker. Glad we were packed up ready to leave And the management didnt care. Terribly unsatisfied. Would not come here again. Besides that it was ok. Who wants to wake up to weed whacking at a campground though? And just rude people that prob stay there all year. Then dogs started barking. When I'm in nature I'm not trying to hear that racket to wake up to.

Check in was fast and easy. Liked that we could just pull in for the night and leave the truck hooked up to the trailer. The Playground was well maintained and fun for kids, there is a small lake that’s nice to look at. No security gate and a lot of traffic coming in and out of the campground especially at late hours of the night. Campground store looked empty not much to choose from.

Pros: Wonderful staff. Short drive to highway and stores. Laundromat is on site, and is always very clean. Full hook ups year round. Cons: Smallest campsites I've seen. Wish the sites would be closer to twice as large. Feels packed in like sardines. You can hear the highway/road traffic at all hours. Wifi unreliable. Some long term campers seem abandoned and rough looking.

Staff was friendly. They called us ahead of time to warn us it had snowed. They don't salt or plow so be aware that if you get that phone call, it will be icy. Slipped and fell while trying to get hooked up but no injuries, just a bruised ego. There is a huge hill at the entry way that is pretty scary if you aren't a confident trailering person in the snow/ice. (The hill goes well beyond the store in the background). The sites were accurately described. They weren't offering propane during our stay so we had to go elsewhere to fill up. We did make it safely up the hill and onto our next destination. The pond looks amazing and I would love to try this place again - just not after it snows.

Full hookups even in mid December, friendly and accommodating front office staff. The playground is clean and has an awesome caterpillar climbing thing! Would've loved to try out the jumping pillow and pool, but it's December. Beth was understanding when I had a problem with my RV and needed to stay a little later to fix it before heading out, very recommended!

It was 4:15 and office was closed with a sign saying bathrooms and shower house was not open for guests ... self contained camping only. My payment was processed however, but no phone call or email was made to let us know our site or the fact that the bath house was closed when it was 45 to 50 degrees outside. At no time did we see any working personnel. With that being said, it was clean and the site did have our electricy, water, and sewer prepared and ready. We later found a map with our name and site number posted on an outside desk. We would hesitate to stay here because of te unwelcoming nature ...

Friendly staff. The sites were level so there was very little needed to level out the RV. 5G cell phone service, WiFi was OK but with the 5G connection WiFi wasn't really needed. This is a great campground tucked away.

Because of Covid they decided to keep the bathhouses closed instead of cleaning. That's fine but the office and store are only open 5 hours on Monday, Friday and Saturday. Plus, the wifi doesn't work and cell is spotty. Called the manager but never got a reply or got the wifi fixed. Site itself was fine but with all the rundown campers around I wonder how safe it is. First and last time staying here.

This KOA was an okay stop on our travels. The pool was warm, but turning green. The playground was old and outdated with only an old, tall metal slide and a few swings. The “lake” looked cool, but proved to only be pretty shallow and lacked on the fishing front. Our site was very unlevel and tight between the campers. We probably won’t be back here.

This campsite is ok. It’s huge with a dog park. Views are pretty. I think with covid we didn’t need to get squeezed together like sardines. There were plenty of open spots that would have been good to have that peace of mind. Bath houses closed, playground and pool open. Needs a lot of TLC but it worked for one night.

Just a beautiful campground. Last night they a large bonfire that was amazing. Do to certain circumstances I couldn't use our shower so went to the bath house. I have been camping for 54 years and never have I ever seen such clean restrooms

Quiet, pretty views. Helpful staff. Roads are poor. Bathrooms are old plywood style. Needs some upgrades. In my two week trip this was the lowest quality KOA I stayed at.

Very nice KOA BUT... road noise combined with the amount of traffic (on gravel) inside the park spoils the rating. Also a spoiler is how unlevel the spaces are. Have stayed in dozens of KOAs & this is not typical but needs to be remedied. Nice little lake with fishing, kayaks & row boats available. Lots of cabins, big bounce pillow, basketball court, playground & doggy park. All things you'd expect from KOA. However, there are many long term campers who head to work at the crack of dawn in noisy diesels also spoiled our stay.

Not the best KOA but adequate. The campground is very hilly and it seems there are a lot of permanent residents living here. Kind of adds a trailer park feel to the place. Surprising that the closest KOA to Pittsburgh isn't nicer.

We were able to easily get into the campground. There was an area in front of the office to unhook Toad. Although there are some tight turns, we were able to maneuver around with no issues. They easily handle big rigs. Sites are close together, however relatively easy to get in and out of. There was room in our site for the truck, 5th wheel and jeep. Gravel or Asphalt roads through the campground. Sites are level. Sites were gravel for the camper, with a nice grass area to sit outside. Each site had a picnic table. Very well maintained. Good Verizon coverage. It was very easy to get DirecTV satellite. This was a fine campground. We would definitely stay again. We were only there for 2 days, it isn’t a destination campground, but it is a nice place to rest up.
