We stayed at Wilderness Adventure for one night in “The Meadow”. We stayed a Saturday night and got to enjoy live music, and tasty beers! The staff was incredibly hospitable, and the grounds were so fun to explore. If you’re up for a fun hike, take the Outerspace trail up to “The Bluff” and enjoy the mountain views.

Overall Bald Eagle State Forest was an amazing location and beautiful place to explore. We had an amazing stay, and the trails were tons of fun to drive. The only downside of our campsite was that it was listed as “motorized”. These sites are advertised as drive-up and occupy your vehicle sites, however there were two giant boulders blocking the pathway to the actual site. The fire ring and picnic table were tucked away in the woods, and about 100 yards away was the road and a pull off for the vehicle. Luckily we drive a 4x4 SUV and were able to drive over said boulders, but for someone in a regular car or with a trailer, this would be impossible. There were a few cars that passed during our whole stay, but overall it was peaceful and quiet. These sites are primitive and spread out, but absolutely free if you have a permit! We will definitely visit the area again, but choose a different site with photos before hand.

We had a great time at Indian Island, even if it was just for a short stay. The beach was within walking distance, lots of little trails, and plenty of activities for the whole family. The bathrooms were mostly clean, and the shower was hot. The only reason I gave 4 stars is because the campsites don’t come with a fire ring. Not sure if this is because of maintenance, but it just wasn’t super apparent until we got there. We luckily had our camp stove and could make dinner on that, but a fire would’ve been nice that evening!
