"It's a popular hiking destination that's relatively close to Morgantown, so it gets pretty crowded in the summer and I would suggest arriving early if you're going to"
"There is a great access to the trails from the campsite and a short walk to the overlook. Depending upon your location the bathrooms can be a hike. Sites 3-7 are good locations."
$20 - $54 / night
"Ohiopyle is located in a beautiful area of Pennsylvania we've camped there a couple of times and have been able to get last minute tent sites. Lots of outdoor activities nearby."
"Very close to two Frank Lloyd Wright properties– Kentuck Knob and the more widely known Falling Waters."
$46 - $55 / night
"The outside roads of the park if you walk them all is roughly one mile and it feels like you’re hiking on a gravel path through the woods- well because you are."
"Nice campground next to Chestnut Ridge Park (great pond swimming & newt catch/release as well as summer folk music concerts on Sat when not COVID)."
$20 - $90 / night

$16 - $45 / night
"Very large tent site and surrounded by woods. Not close to your neighbor like most campgrounds. Peaceful! Van Life sites are tucked away in the woods for privacy. Open fields for large groups."
"Nice little spot next to the creek. Staff was friendly but barely on site. Which is nice."
$25 - $35 / night
"It was walking distance to the beautiful overlook and a great price for what you get."
"I was traveling alone and was looking for something about an hour away when I used my Dyrt app to locate a recommended campground. Benner’s popped up near Ohiopyle State Park."
"The campground was really nice, although PA Winters are drab, so we kind of had to use our imagination for how beautiful the campground might be when there's vibrant greenery all around."
"Kids enjoyed playing around the boat ramp. Clean restrooms."
LegendThere are no amenities here besides a picnic table and a fire ring, but the sites are so spread out that it’s basically like dispersed camping but on a paved road. Which is like the magic ticket to enjoyable camping!
I reserved site 125 which was right across from the creek. The creek had some pools deep enough to sit in and get fairly wet.
It was very quiet other than fireworks a couple times. We saw no wildlife until we left the site in the morning and saw some deer on the road. Though we did have a spectacular firefly display at night.
A lot of litter left behind by previous campers. No cell service. Beautiful forest. Be prepared for mosquitoes and gnats.
GuideBreathe taking views, clean, courteous and friendly staff.
This park was an excellent choice, will definitely be back when in this area.
ScoutRustic, clean porta johns, private, primitive spots on river. Community fire rings on beach area. Firewood available. Relaxing
GuideJust returned from our first weekend here. The new section is open and ready. Water and Electric Only. Dump station on the way out.
50amp - No issues.
We had empty space on either side of us. New section is spaced out with a berm of earth in between alot of the sites.
Road out a decent storm and 2.5 inches of rain in 24 hours. One tree came down close us. Probably no more risky than anywhere else.
New bath house is excellent. Old ones… meh.. they are old.
Will return.
ScoutThis is a great public park site. Well maintained and sufficiently nice amenities.
GuideWe stayed one night while passing through the area. Facilitaties are extremely clean!
We stopped though mid week in early May and the park was just about empty, one other RV sites used and no tents up. Several cabins were rented.
The birds are active and wonderful to listen too!
Has 10 pretty level RV sites and 30 ish tent walk in sites
Boat dock on the lake and several trails around.
Also has a few cabins you can rent.
Would love to spend more time here at the lake on a boat!
GuideSwallow falls is awesome year round. In the winter the snow and ice is beautiful, fall is lovely and summer is fun.
There are only a couple sites with electricity in each of the two loops.
The largest falls in Maryland, Muddy Creek Falls, 53 feet. Several other falls on the Youghiogheny River.
Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, Harvey Firestone, and John Burroughs camped on the site in 1918, and 1921.
ScoutVery clean and quiet. The people selling firewood were the best! Site 166 is not flat what so ever. We recommend checking out cucumber falls, which isn’t terribly far away.
ScoutThis is our first stay at this park. We have a wonderful, big electric and water site. Our camper doesn't have a bathroom so we need the bathhouse. There isn't one on every loop, but this one does have a restroom. The restroom and all the bathhouses badly need updating. The paint is peeling, they smell like mildew and the siding is rotting on them. They are clean but the creepy and gross factor are too much. There are also very limited sites that you can have a pet with you. So a nice place but if those two things are important to you just be aware
