    SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

    Washington-Pittsburgh SW KOA offers full hookup RV sites close to Interstate 70, providing electric, water, and sewer connections. The park operates from March through December with sites cut into hillsides that can present leveling challenges. "Very steep narrow roads to access campground and sites, sites not level and noisy, next to highway," noted one camper about the terrain. Pine Cove Beach Club RV Resort provides year-round access with 50-amp service and big-rig friendly pull-through sites on well-maintained gravel pads. The Blue Canoe RV Resort (formerly Uniontown KOA) features riverside RV camping with full hookups, though fire rings are positioned in parallel rows with limited privacy between neighboring sites.

    Navigation to several local RV parks requires careful attention to steep terrain and tight turns. Some campgrounds specifically advise following posted directional signs rather than GPS guidance to avoid problematic roads. Raccoon Creek State Park accommodates smaller RVs but isn't suited for large motorhomes, with one visitor noting that "sites are for everyone, RV to tent, older bathhouses but clean." Cell service varies across the region, with Verizon reported as reliable at Washington-Pittsburgh KOA's extended stay section. Many parks provide on-site amenities including trash pickup, delivered firewood, and swimming pools that typically operate during summer months. Most facilities welcome pets with designated exercise areas, though site spacing tends to be compact throughout the region.

      Tomlinson Run State Park Campground

      Nice little State Park

      Tomlinson Run is a small state park situated in the northern panhandle of West Virginia nestled between eastern Ohio and western Pennsylvania. Plenty of things to do there including but not limited to…. Mini golf, hiking trails, biking, swimming, fishing, paddle boats, parks for the kids, and of course the camping. The campsites here are mainly gravel pads with the exception being the asphalt handicapped spots (2). Most spots are 30 amp with a few 50 amp (new for 2021). The park also has a few primitive spots available and some yurts and cabins to rent. I have a 38’ fifth wheel and the spots are tight for it (even the couple pull thru). Campground facilities are clean but dated. They state new facilities are coming soon. The campground is at the top of a hill and the spots are wooded and shaded. I would consider the camping to be spaced generously (room to stretch out). They have a small camp store and information available. A breakfast is available during peak season for a small fee. They do have water and a dump station available (free for campers to use).

      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.

      Glade Farms Campground

      Quiet place to rest

      We headed to ride the trails at big bear lake camplands and booked here considering a recent outbreak of covid at the lake. The on call staff met us at the gated community and helped us get situated on a shaded lot. Very nice and quiet with mostly seasonal or permanent snowbirds. Small pond/lake on the property and plenty of shade. The lot was a challenge to be centered and level which led to us exiting our camper downhill. The water access was in ground and I cant imagine a camping couple that's well beyond retirement finding that convenient but it didn't impact us. Pet friendly and large lots. Bathhouse was closed due to covid. No firewood at this campground to purchase but fire ring provided and picnic tables.

      Kentuck Campground — Ohiopyle State Park

      Nice Pennsylvania State Park

      Very large park with a variety of campsites ranging from tent, 20/30 amp, 50 amp, and yurts. Price is the same for all electric sites, regardless of amperage. There is a 40-foot maximum vehicle length allowed in the campground– not a problem for our 17-foot van but the staffer who checked us in remarked that many people come in with larger rigs trying to squeeze in and are unable to. We had no problem securing a site with no reservation on a Monday evening after Labor Day. Very close to two Frank Lloyd Wright properties– Kentuck Knob and the more widely known Falling Waters. Other things to do in or near the park include whitewater rafting, rail trail biking, hiking, zip-lining and touring Laurel Caverns. The nearby town of Ohiopyle has many outfitters and several restaurants. The sites are all located on roads leading off the main road; we stayed in a 20/30amp site on Cherry Road (Site 49). It was right next to the bathroom which was good and bad. Good for proximity but bad because we could hear the hum quite clearly. Also, the door to the women’s room would hit you in the rear quite forcefully unless you held onto it (it took me three times to remember to do this)! There was a dishwashing sink in the women’s room (and I’m assuming in the men’s room?); it was very clean, but the only downside was having to do the dishes by myself! Alcohol is prohibited. Only certain areas allow pets. Only one garbage/recycling station outside of the campground. Wood and ice are available 24/7 on the honor system– very nice not to have to wait until a host is on duty to get what you need. Quiet hours 9 pm-8 am, a bit longer than most campgrounds but except for some sites with campfires still burning with people talking, it was very quiet in this campground. Surprisingly strong cell signal for being deep in the woods.

      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!

      Washington-Pittsburgh SW KOA

      KOA - Monthly Stay

      Camping in a 33 ft travel trailer with slides. Verizon service is great. Wifi in extended parking doesn’t work well. The staff are helpful and polite. We are in the extended stay part of the campground which is quiet and slightly more secluded than the other spots.

      Roaring Run Resort

      Decent Campground, no 50 amp service

      This campground is a nice, quiet campground about 30 minutes from Pittsburgh. It is a membership-based campground, we stayed there using coast to coast. The campground is decent, but not sure it really qualifies as a “resort”. It is an older park that could use some updates, namely electric service, fresh gravel for the sites, and sewer, but overall the park was clean and reasonably well kept.

      The park is gated, you have to stop at the security booth to check in, enter, or leave the park, so you might have to wait a few minutes, but that is a nice level of added security. It is pretty easy to navigate the park even with a larger rig, and there is an nice sized overflow parking area to unhook your toad when you first get there. I would recommend getting there before dark. They did have signs directing you to the different site number groups which was helpful.

      The road my GPS brought me in was a little tight, but manageable. There was a better route but it did have a very short bridge with a 10 ton weight limit, so be sure to really check your route. Another bonus is that it is only a few minutes from the PA turnpike.

      The sites are average, but there are no sewer hookups and no 50 amp service, the whole park is 30 amp. The sites are reasonable level, but the one we had was a little tricky to get into because of it being on a hill, but it was manageable. The picnic table benches were completely rotted out.

      There are two dump stations, one located on the way out, and the other located in one of the upper loops.

      The campground did have nice amenities, the pool was large and clean, it had a nice playground, a camp store, sports courts, horseshoes, volleyball, and a mini golf course. The staff were all very nice, and they patrolled the park throughout the day and night for security, which is always nice.

      The closest town is about 20 minutes away, and there are a bunch of restaurants, a Lowes, and auto parts stores should you need supplies or make a repair.

      The campground is about 40 minutes from the Flight 93 National Memorial, about 20 minutes from Fallingwater, and there were a couple of wineries in the area as well.

      All in all, our visit was good. I gave three stars because of the lack of 50 amp hookups and the size and quality of the sites.

    Guide to Washington

    Nestled in the rolling hills of southwestern Pennsylvania, RV camping near Washington, Pennsylvania offers diverse terrain ranging from 800 to 1,200 feet in elevation. The region features moderate year-round temperatures, with summer highs typically reaching 80°F and winter lows often dropping below freezing. Many campgrounds in this area are built on hilly terrain which affects site layout and vehicle access.

    What to do

    Water activities on the river: At The Blue Canoe RV Resort, campers can enjoy kayaking on the Youghiogheny River. "Located on the Youghiogheny River. Many full hookups, great play ground for the kids... Staff make multiple rounds, picks up your trash and delivers your purchased firewood," notes Rob S. The riverfront location provides water recreation opportunities during summer months.

    Star gazing platform: Benner's Meadow Run RV Campground offers a dedicated star gazing area. Ricki F. mentioned, "There also was a putt-putt course and a star-gazing point/trail." Though one camper noted, "The star gazing platform leaves a lot to be desired and is in need of repair," the night sky viewing remains popular.

    Lake inflatables and rentals: Austin Lake RV Park provides extensive water recreation options. "TONS of stuff to do here. Very big campground, all kinds of sites. Inflatable slides and such in the lake, hiking trials, playgrounds, all sorts of stuff," reports Mathew H. The lake features multiple water attractions beyond standard swimming.

    What campers like

    Well-maintained pool facilities: Pine Cove Beach Club RV Resort receives high marks for its swimming options. Heath T. shares, "Great: The pool & concession stand, beautifully maintained lawns and gravel campsites, modern hookups, good shower/laundry facilities, nice fire rings with built in grills, trash pickup service." The resort maintains clean facilities with additional amenities.

    Proximity to outdoor attractions: Benner's Meadow Run positions campers near regional outdoor destinations. One reviewer mentioned, "We stayed for 2 nights while we visited Fallingwater and the Flight 93 Memorial. We should have stayed another night so we could visit Fort Necessity NP just down the road but ran out of time." The campground serves as a convenient base for exploring southwestern Pennsylvania attractions.

    Fishing opportunities: Several campgrounds offer fishing access, with Austin Lake featuring a dedicated fishing area. A camper noted, "Has a playground in every section, well equipped cabins, a swimming area with inflatables, kayak, pontoon, and paddle boarding rentals, a bumper boat area, small lake where you can fish and boat." These fishing spots provide recreational options beyond standard camping activities.

    What you should know

    Limited cell coverage: Cell service can be nonexistent at some campgrounds. Regarding Austin Lake RV Park & Cabins, Mathew H. warns, "No phone service at all, no matter the carrier." Prepare for limited connectivity when camping in this region.

    Coin-operated showers: Some facilities charge extra for shower use. One camper at Austin Lake noted, "Need to use the bathhouse? Better take quarters....bc the showers are coin opperated." Bring quarters if staying at campgrounds with this arrangement.
