Best Glamping near Cambridge Springs, PA

Clean facilities, friendly, wooded, and many rentals including 2 yurts.

So I’ll be honest: Sometimes I camp just so I can get close to flyfishing. This particular review has less to do with the specifics of the site (although this campground is great!), and more to do with the flyfishing in the area (also great!).

Pennsylvania is home to some of the best wilderness trout streams that you’re ever going to find. The area is just plain beautiful! If you like hiking, fishing, and getting it to enjoy some of the pristine wilderness of the Allegheny National Forest, this campground is your gateway to its natural beauty.

The campground near Tionesta (pronounced: “ty-NES-ta” for those out-of-town) is standard, but pretty nice. Everything you would expect for camping near ANF. The sites are well-maintained, and most of the locals seem pretty respectful.

The little town of President (and Porcupine Creek) is just up the road. This is one of the most pristine wilderness brook trout fisheries in the area. You can even find a wild, native Rainbow if you‘re lucky enough ;-)

Quick tip: spend more than a day here. If you like scenic drives, you’ll in for a nice surprise.

Nothing special. Sites are not level and are close to each other. They do have a pool but that’s it.

Lots of RVs, not many tents. Small section in the back of the campground for tents. Also the worst part is being so close to the gas station/truck stop. Very bright lights on all night. Also close to the highway so there is constant noise! Most likely won't return.

There really aren’t words! Everything is clean, quiet and serene! The people that work there we super friendly! Can’t wait to go back!

View of Lake Erie was great. Upper sites very unlevel. Zero cell service. Zero WiFi. Zero internet. Very low water pressure. Entry road was filled with LOTS of holes & ruts which were filled with mud mud & more mud.

The owner, male portion, is very crabby and annoying. Got poison ivy off of their firewood, the store is very understocked, and the place is pricey. We stayed 1 night out of 3, family emergency.

Example: as we are eating outside, my fork literally in my mouth, the owner yelled from his golf cart full of drinking buddies, that I needed to move my truck behind my trailer, other people would enjoy the view. Please bear in mind, that my truck and trailer combined are shorter than the two monster class A's next to me. As I put my fork down and went to move said truck, he and his drunk buddies pull up behind me to chat with someone for several minutes stopping me from moving like he wanted me to.

This place is pretty cool. Almost all the spots have a water view even if you’re not super close you can still see a small portion of it. The road in the campgrounds is fine for the most part, a little bumpy. There is an entrance down a rocky driveway to get to the lakes sandy edge which is great to bring chairs down and watch the sunset. It is a little busy during the day as there are a lot of seasonal homes here but it gets pretty quiet at night.

We stayed for one night. Beautiful setting with great views of the lake. What a gem. Our only complaint is we had extremely low water pressure so we filled our tank and used our pump. Problem solved!

We loved it. Our site was right on Lake Erie. There was nothing except a drop of about 25' to the lake. There is lake access for swimming, boat launch and Jetsons etc. It was quiet and simple. We were there for 3 days and loved it. Internet is not very good if you need it go to the office. Not many people go camping to be connected though. I habe Verizon and the service is weak and spotty.

I'd recommend the place overall.

This is a quiet little park right on the water

Went there, price was concealed , in the end 40 bucks, office had laid out bibles, well manicured and in a row spots. A different experience...

We have stayed at the park for Christmas Eve the past two years. Had the Adirondack shelters to ourselves each year.

firewood is available but you have to donate some cash, split it and haul it to your shelter. It's always been seasoned well and provided plenty of heat for the shelter during our winter stays.

Very quiet and no light pollution for a town or city, Providing great moonlit nights.

Fees are minimal

rail trail to walk or ride just a few miles over the hill and the cross country skiing trails come directly past the shelter.

Hubby and I rented an RV and stayed one night at oil creek campground. We really liked it and wish we could’ve stayed longer. Would definitely go back if we’re back in the area. The owner was such a sweetheart too, very friendly and informative. Two Thumbs up👍🏻

We found the shelters accidentally during a hike in the park and returned for an overnight. We found parking nearby so it was just a short hike to get to.

I believe it's once a year that they have oil machinery demonstrations. Very interesting. You can also take a train ride through the park.

My family stayed over Memorial Day weekend. It was so much fun. They have a lot of activities. My favorite was the disc golf. Their course is really nice!

Oil F.C. is a hidden gem nestled in the woods not far from Oil Creek State Park. They have a great playground, a maze, a catch and release pond. Lots of things to do to keep the kids, or in our case the grandkids occupied. They have a well stocked camp store, in case you don't want to make the 4 mile ride into town. Their firewood prices are very reasonable. Rachel is a great in accommodating her campers. We were there 3 times this year. Its become our goto campground that's only an hour away from Erie.

We stayed in site C6 one of the reservable sites. Every site has plenty of room. Campground overall is quiet. And most if not all of the full hookups are pull throughs. But seems many of the tent sites are on grades. Couple beautiful walk in tent sites right on the water. Plenty of nice hiking trails. Great beach for kids.

Shen staying at two mile you will find the sites are separated by trees and offer you your own little private area. The prices are good and you truly are in nature.

Affordable, lots of things to do like fishing, hiking trails,, canoeing kayaking, clean shower house, good signal for Verizon,

Didn't explore much of the campground here, seemed huge with lots of sites, we basically had a whole area of sites to ourselves, and it was a very wooded area. Some lots were large, some were not. Very nice if you are looking for a no frills, quiet place to stay. We came here for a mountain bike race and enjoyed riding the trails!

Our site was not level. Bathrooms were not lockable and therefore felt unsafe.

Mostly seasonal campers here but some real nice reservable spots for short stays. Gravel pads but pretty level and lots of shade trees. Stayed here for a fishing charter trip and there are lots of other campers here for the same reason. We will be back again!
