    Salem-Lisbon Ohio KOA

    A Traditional KOA Experience

    This was a Fall camping experience in a cabin as we knew it would be cold in the evenings.  We also had a non-camper with us so this was a nice compromise.  We had a cozy cabin with 2 bathrooms.  We also had a small kitchen where we could cook when we didn't want to cook over the fire.  This was another way for us to social distance as COVID-19 was still an issue. 

    I also took photos of the camping bathrooms as each KOA does it a little differently. You will notice that the bathroom is unisex.  It is a single bathroom (toilet and shower).  This is in the center of the campground.  The bathroom photos below are not of the cabin. 

    The cabin you see here is the Deluxe. "Deluxe Cabin(More than two Bathrooms), Patio Deluxe Cabin(w/ Bathroom)- Evergreen KL8-9-10 Perfect for large family or two couples with two queen bedrooms, sleeping loft, 1 1/2 baths, kitchenette, 3 tvs located in quiet corner with shade trees. Sorry, Not Pet Friendly! Linens are included in all seasons except Winter. Please bring pool towels." Taken from Reservation Email. 

    For 2 nights it totaled $153.00 which is a good price compared to other cabins we were looking at within the region.  We could have had others camping in the tent section of the campground so it is an easy way to have a mixed crowd for a camping outing. 

    I did type in some information into the Special Requests within my reservation booking online, as I had a question about who had to pick up the key as a friend lived closer.  No one responded and I had to call them. 

    Cabins Check in is at 3PM and Check out is at 12 PM

    We were able to buy firewood from the KOA camp office. They bring it to your campsite and we were able to grill hotdogs and other food items on our camp fire.  Do read the general information closely and look at number 15 for a free scoop of ice cream. 

    https://www.whitehousefruitfarm.com/donuts  We did a donut run and explored the farm for our outing for the day. 

    We also spent the day checking out a local mill https://www.millcreekmetroparks.org/visit/places/mill-creek-park/lantermans-mill/

    The Blue Canoe RV Resort

    A Trail Runs Through It: The GAP Trail KOA

    The GAP trail rolls right through the middle of this traditional KOA campground. The seasonal RVers and weekend warriors have long claimed their sites, but for through riders on the trail there is a special place to camp, close to the west-bound entrance. The picnic tables and fire rings are surrounded by hammock poles and there’s lots of space for scattered tents. The bathroom and shower facilities are modern and well maintained. And, of course, they have ice cream and laundry available! They also have cabins if you need to get out of the weather. We didn’t check those out, but saw them on the property. 

    If you are an RVer and seeking a place to park and ride along this trail, this is a perfect place to have the best of both worlds. This is a very busy campground, nothing like the serenity of the less easy to access sites along the GAP trail, but offers some nice services for those in need of them.

    The closest town is Connellsville where you can get everything you might need.  Great restaurants as well!  Check out the Kickstand Kitchen for an ahhhmazing meal!!  Best restaurant along the trail, by far.

    Bear Run Campground

    Loads to do...!

    This campground is deceptively big! The nightly RV sites are close to the park entrance and are relatively flat. The campground hosts themed events, game nights and arts& crafts. There is a swimming pool and playground for the kids. It also has a small café that sells baked goods and coffee. On Saturdays they sell amazing Armish Donuts! 

    Further into the campground the sites turn to more permanent sites. Further up the hill are more cottages and camping. This campground is steep in parts and too large to walk efficiently. There is a fenced dog run area and a beautiful lake. All sites have fire rings. There is an onsite laundry, WIFI, onsite dump station and propane refill station. 

    You can also buy ice and firewood. The campground is gated. Lots to do at the campground and lots to do in the surrounding area. They welcome all furry friends!

    Raccoon Creek State Park Campground

    Pet friendly campsite, with electric

    While most of the campgrounds in the park are no pets- there are 2 loops that allow your furry companions! Loop F includes electric spots! Loved seeing the 'neighbors' dogs get excited and curious when I walked my 4-legged best friend around the site. Clean area , close to a modern bathroom (a few stalls & even 2 showers!) Looking forward to going back at the end of the month.

    Tomlinson Run State Park Campground

    Very wooded campground

    General: 50-site (all but six with electric hookups) campground plus two yurts and three cabins. Two sites are handicap accessible. 

    Site Quality: The sites have gravel pads (except the handicap-accessible ones which were paved). The sites were completely covered with leaves when we were there which made it challenging to determine where the actual (narrow) pad was. Sites appeared to be level. A fire ring and wooden picnic table complete the site. 

    Bathhouse: A little dated but clean. Two of the stall doors did not latch properly. Didn't use the shower so cannot comment but there was a sign indicating it took a while for the water to warm up.

    Activities/Amenities: There is a small camper store, laundry, and a playground. In season, there is lake swimming and a boat dock. There is a fishing area, mini-golf and disc golf, and several short hiking trails. Unfortunately, since we arrived late afternoon and had to depart early the following day (and were camping off-season), we could not take advantage of any of these things. What we lose in activities, we gain in a quieter camping experience with fewer crowds, which is generally preferable for us!

    Ryerson Station State Park Campground

    Nice Little Park...with Loud, Destructive Neighbors

    This is a nice little park that used to have a lake…until it was undermined (literally) and destroyed by the nearby coal company. The trails are pleasant, especially the one leading to the old Chess Cemetery. The PADCNR works hard to make this park into an attraction despite the fact that it no longer has its lake as a focal point. This means that they maintain a cold water swimming pool in the summer. And they keep the campground open year-round, which makes it a rarity. If you want to go camping in January, this might be the only conventional campground in PA where you can do that. The campground is pleasant, if a little…spooky. None of the spots are very secluded, but that's okay because you'll probably be the only camper here. Like much of the park, it's bordered by a public road, which means that there's some traffic--usually loud pickups and frack trucks. I've only ever camped here in the fall, when Greene County is at its most beautiful, and I've always had the campground (and most of the park) entirely to myself. There are two tiny cabins as well as sites for tents or campers. Ryerson is worth a visit. Not sure why the state can't make the coal company pay for its destruction of the lake.

    Raccoon Creek State Park Campground

    Raccoon Creek Camping

    This is a large state park offering electric only sites

    The sites are set amounts the forest and there are several loops to choose from. Loop F is pet friendly. All sites are within walking distance to amenities 

    Amenities are quite run down but functional 

    Wildlife is beautiful and its a short ~10min drive to the beach area of Raccoon Creek lake. 

    Two (2) dump station spots and fresh water taps location throughout the park 

    NOTE: Many sites are not level, you will require blocks/timber to level out campers. Tent campers should choose their site using the photos on the state park site. 

    All sites have a paved car space.

    Grand Vue Park

    Right next to town with big fun and wide views

    I did not stay in the cabins. I tent camped. The tent areas are out past the Vue Bar and Grill. They are spread out and each has a fire ring, picnic table and fire wood is free! The people there are great, easy check in. The tent areas are spread out and there isn’t an actual road to each of the sites. I actually thought this was cool but not if its raining and you have a small car. 

    The best part is the Vue Bar and Grill, the food is surprisingly good. Cooked well and is large portions. There is many other things to do there as well. They have an adventure park but we didn’t make it there. Planing to go back.

    Breakneck Campground

    Nice little campground

    Our first visit to this campground and we actually found from using this website! We wanted a secluded site and close to Pittsburgh. 

    We arrived around 7pm and there was no check in, we drove around for a while trying to find a spot with a fire ring per some helpful campers. There are two really nice spots by the water which were taken, and we only saw one other in the woods (the other 2 were hidden by a large group of people).

    We ended up finding a flat spot with some tree cover what was far enough from our neighbors but about as close as a bigger campground. Would be good for larger groups. Ton of flat land for tents but saw some people with smaller campers. Firewood is $5 a bucket and clean and dry. Bring a table cloth for the tables. 

    Portapot close by but full bath rooms and showers by main lodge. Lots of tent platforms that overlooked into the woods which would be fun, for a smaller 4 person tent though. 

    As another reviewer stated, there was a super loud group Friday night but Saturday was very peaceful and quiet and we met the owner who checked us in and apologized for the loud group and said he was still getting the campground ready for the season. The price is the same for either spots. 

    Short walk down cheeseman road to trail entrances to McConnells Mills State Park. Short drive to hells hallow or the covered bridge. 

    Overall we had a great time and will be back!


Guide to Burgettstown

Cabins near Burgettstown, Pennsylvania range from rustic to well-appointed accommodations within heavily forested terrain. The region sits at elevations between 1,100-1,400 feet with moderate summer temperatures typically reaching the mid-80s during peak season. Winter cabin rentals often face below-freezing overnight temperatures from December through February, with occasional snow accumulation affecting access to more remote locations.

What to Do

**Hiking trails: Access over 40 miles of trails at Raccoon Creek State Park Campground, including the Palomino Loop. "I had the most wonderful time on my first tent camping at Racoon Creek. We made a fire, hiked by the moonlight and swam at the warm lake at night," notes Mariana N., highlighting the combination of trail access and swimming opportunities.

**Water activities: Try swimming and boating at Tomlinson Run State Park Campground during summer months. "Swimming pool and lake for fishing and boating!" explains David A., mentioning the dual water recreation options available. The park maintains both lake access and a swimming pool during the summer season.

**Winter recreation: Winter cabin stays offer snow hiking opportunities at Raccoon Creek State Park. "Got out for a couple hours hiking in the snow. It was great. Just what we needed to stretch the legs and enjoy some family time. We did the Palomino Loop," shares Jay R., who visited during winter months when many trails remain open with snow cover.

What Campers Like

**Private wooded cabins: Bear Run Campground offers cabin sites with varying levels of seclusion. "I always camp near the horses as I like a bit more privacy. The front of the campground is a bit too packed for my liking," reports Joan K., noting the range of privacy options available at different cabin locations.

**Creek-side camping: Some cabin and camping areas feature access to flowing water. At Breakneck Campground, "The creek at the bottom of the hill is a true hidden gem and our kids and dogs love splashing in the water to cool off on a hot day," according to Abby L., describing water features not mentioned in promotional materials.

**Wildlife viewing: Cabin sites offer chances to spot local fauna. "We loved it," notes Sienna L. about their Raccoon Creek State Park cabin stay, adding "Only downside is you can hear the airport. Not a huge deal though!" This suggests good wildlife viewing opportunities despite occasional aircraft noise.

What You Should Know

**Off-season considerations: Many cabins maintain limited winter access. "Tomlinson Run is a nice clean state park. There is canoeing but no swimming. Bass fishing is really fun because we caught a few nice ones!" explains Mike T., highlighting activities available outside swimming season at Beaver Creek State Park Campground.

**Varying shower facilities: Cabin accommodations range from those with pay showers to inclusive facilities. At Washington-Pittsburgh SW KOA, they mention "Bathrooms were fairly clean, laundry was nice," though campers should note amenities differ substantially between locations.

**Cabin reservation timing: Most locations require substantial advance planning. Whispering Pines Family Campground cabins book quickly as "This campground checks all the boxes for me. Pool, brook, trees, space, quiet! Every time we come here it gets better," according to John R., explaining why competitive booking exists.

Tips for Camping with Families

**Playground proximity: Select cabins near activity areas for convenience with young children. At Whispering Pines Family Campground, one reviewer appreciated the "Lovely GEM in the heart of Carolina. Nestled in a quiet area full of smiling faces," noting that "the staff were extremely accommodating" for family needs.

**Weekend activities: Some locations offer structured children's programming. Bear Run Campground provides regular family events: "Every weekend there are activities, there is a heated pool and Friday night Bingo," writes Amy S., detailing organized recreation options.

**Cabin selection for privacy: When booking with children, consider site location carefully. "We had a tent site for the weekend. It was a beautiful area and I really enjoyed exploring," shares Alice M. about her Raccoon Creek State Park experience, emphasizing that site selection significantly impacts experience quality.

Tips from RVers

**Access limitations: Approach directions matter for larger vehicles accessing cabin areas. At Austin Lake RV Park & Cabins, "Take your time and all will be just fine. Our rig is 39' & 16K. 4wd low helps, not cause you need 4wd just for the lower gears," advises Mathew H., providing specific technical guidance about access challenges.

**Site leveling: Many cabin sites require additional equipment for comfortable setup. "TONS of stuff to do here. Very big campground, all kinds of sites. Reserve early for Holiday Weekends as it fills up," continues Mathew about Austin Lake, noting the diversity of site conditions.

**Cabin amenities vs. RV hookups: Consider bringing RV comfort items to basic cabins. "Most sites are spacious!" reports Sienna L. about Raccoon Creek State Park, though cabin amenities vary significantly by location and price point.
