Rating: 10 10 10 10 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: My wife and I had a very enjoyable stay at this campground. We brought our puppy and were treated like rockstars by everyone! They were busy for Memorial Day weekend in addition to having a lot of seasonal people staying. All of the people were very pleasant and all of the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The owner even brought me a component of my frozen cocktail from her home when I ran out. Our pull through site was brand new (we were the first to use it) and was fairly level but could have used a bit more gravel. I'm sure they will take care of it though. Nice fire ring and good water pressure and quality. We had a 50 amp full hook up site that was a pull through. They have a nice dog park and there were lots of kids playing and having fun. There is not much to do in Saxton, the nearest town, but Trough Creek State Park is beautiful, as is Raystown Lake. There is a small camp store with firewood, ice, and a few odds and ends, but there is a Dollar General 3 miles away. We would definitely come back again. - FredSanford
Staff were outstanding--from helping me park the RV at 10:00 Friday night to offering to open the office to get firewood and helping fix a clogged toilet. The campground is very dog friendly and actually has a dog park. The campground itself is quiet and the other guests were friendly. We will definitely return. - NMarlin
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Four Seasons at Raystown Lake »This quiet little gem sits on a beautiful mountain in the Allegany's. It is relatively new (5 years) old, very clean and is constantly being improved by the owners. These folks were the nicest and provided red carpet treatment during our stay. They delivered a hefty load of firewood for $6 right to our fire ring. The sites are a good size with a mostly level gravel surface. We stayed in the middle of October during the peak leaf viewing season. A beautiful State Park is nearby with hiking trails, fishing, etc... and it's free. Other than hiking or fall fishing there is not much to do during the off season around the lake. Try to plan you weekend around a local festival or just plan on relaxing away from civilization for your stay. Saxton is a short drive with Bedford about 30 min away. Only complaint was the poor Verizon cell service in the mountains. It was not a campground thing, it was a Verizon thing. Other campers said that they had better luck with Sprint when out of the forest. Overall a very nice place that we would go back to. - zbittcamper

Rating: 7 7 9 1 3 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: We were in the pull through spots, they are a great location to the bathhouse and dock/boat slip. Our site was big with a paved platform for our camper (which was perfectly level!), gravel and grass beside the camper. Our area was swampy when we arrived. It looked like they had tried to make it less swampy by adding some shale. We dug a little stream which helped it to drain. Bugs are really bad, gnats everywhere and bothersome for the dogs and when cooking food. Make sure you bring tiki torches, bug spray, candles etc. The staff was friendly and helpful. We encountered several people that were told they could not bring a specific breed of dog, which is a shame. We rented a pontoon boat for half a day (200 half day, 380 full day) which was nice to get out on the water. The staff helping us with the boat was great and down to earth. It is a quiet campground, seems to be a lot of spaces for a privately owned campground. There is a loop of season/permanent campers. There is no cell service (AT&T, someone said they had 3 bars with Verizon), wifi wasn't bad but you didn't have a good enough connection to watch videos or anything. Full hookups (water, sewer, and electric (20, 30, 50). We had great water pressure, the best I've had at any campground. A nice fiberglass picnic table and a fire ring available to use at each site. Firewood was $9 at the store, you have to order by 4 to have it delivered after 5. We went down the road and got some wood (because it was after hours) from a self-serve place. I was disappointed that there was no way to swim or let the dogs swim at the campground. They only have a boat slip and docks, which you can't swim off of. About 20 minutes away is a day use area that the dogs can swim and there is a beach area. For this reason, I think we might try another campground if we return. For the price, it's a good deal though. No off leash dog park available either but, some doggie pick up stations around. - WVSunshine
This is a no frills campground, but it is nice and clean. There are quite a few sites that are seasonal, but there are plenty sites available for daily and weekly rentals. The camp store is big, but they don't have a lot of amenities. Inside the store, there is free Wi-Fi, but there is not any cell service in the campground, or around the entire Raystown area at all. The store also closes around 5pm each night. They have a boat dock available to use. Our site was a decent size and pretty level, which most seemed to be level. They arrange the rentals out, so we didn't feel cramped in and had plenty of room. The bathrooms were clean and well kept. The pool looked clean, we didn't use; but there were a few kids in it. They have a playground and volleyball net next to the pool that were being used as well. We rented a pontoon boat from the Raystown resort, which was about 20-30 minutes away. We also visited the Trough Creek State Park for some hiking and biking, which was very nice. - Camper_Girl
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Heritage Cove Resort »We camped here in a 45 ft motorhome and the owners of the campground were two of the nicest people we have met at a campground. We were guided to site 208 and requested a site with satellite service. The owner and handy man made sure all was working well before leaving. We also rented a pontoon boat and that was in very nice condition and was very enjoyable day on the lake. They drove by our site many times during our 4 day stay to be sure we had everything we need for an enjoyable stay. The road leading to the campground is about 2 miles long and winding, but no problem at all for our 45 footer towing a Tahoe. I can recommend this campground and you will receive the same level of service we did. - dana salkeld

Rating: 6 9 9 9 5 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Beautiful lake! Large resort with Marina restaurant, boat rentals, etc. Alas many of the sites are unlevel. No sewer. Great Att signal. Wifi is terrible, too slow to load any pages. Do not arrive at dark, very hard to navigate since there are so many turns. Resort is in middle of nowhere PA, small country roads, narrow, watch out for the super tight impossible intersections, we had to unhook our toad just to make the turn from 4013N to 913W, coming from Breezewood, we will take another route next time! Ozark + Deliverance = Lake Raystown. Reservation requires full payment. Only 80% refund with 3 months notice! 50% with 1 month. No refund within a month! - univmd
We had the happy experience of camping at a waterfront site. It was beautiful! We stayed on site 109 in the Poplar section. With the exception of our check-in person who didn't even offer us a map and directions to our site, the staff was absolutely wonderful with special kudos to the lady at the Trading Post who offered to wrap my ice cream purchase in layers of paper so it didn't melt while I biked back to our site. Also, we were treated with special consideration by the woman who sold us our Proud Mary tickets and the woman who served us on our really enjoyable lake cruise on that boat. Would be a 10 if sewer were available, but we took advantage of the pump out service which also was excellent. We will surely return to Lake Raystown Resort! - HelenH
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Lake Raystown Resort & Lodge »Love this park! It's on a huge, beautiful lake surrounded by wooded hills, with many amenities and activities - great swimming beach, boat rentals, small water park, etc. Very peaceful, relaxed vibe. Maintenance crews come around routinely to take garbage, and were very helpful when we had a problem with our propane. Two general stores, good restaurant and pizza place, lots of different kinds of accommodations. We RV'ed in the Walnut area, which is considered "basic". A nearby bathroom, but shower is a 5-10 min walk (or 1 min drive). Walnut sits on an incline, so the spaces going up to the rotary can be a bit unlevel, but we had tons of room around us, shade, right in the woods. Much better in my opinion than the "premium" sites on the water - no trees, campers on top of one another. We'll definitely return here. Beautiful, tranquil, lovely place. - RSchamess

Rating: 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Hemlock Hideaway »The campground was nice. The manager was as nice as can be. I forgot my cable wire and he had one and gave to me for TV hookup. Hemlock Hideaway is mainly seasonal camping and the CG is on a side of a mountain. Steep roads but tons of trees and you don't feel on top of anybody. Lots of space between sites. They are close to the lake but no lake access. You have to go to a boat launch. The pool was nice DW and little one loved it. They were easy to get to, but the mountain to get over just have 100% confidence in your TV to get you over it. It's a biggie and straight up baby! There was a ton of stuff to do. We just had time to go to Trough State park, highly recommended if you like easy to moderate hiking. Rainbow Falls, well lets just say it is a falls, but not a big one. Balance rock was pretty cool, and the suspension bridge was ok. The hiking was great! We had a great day for hiking: nice and cool and not too long. Very pretty park. We also went to the Lake Raystown State Park. The next big town is Saxton which is about a half hour away from the CG. My main complaint is that both Target and Wal-Mart are in Altoona. That's about an hour away. But the drive was pretty and we didn't mind. - n3qdz

Rating: 9 9 3 7 9 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: There are six separate camping areas in this park - several on the edge of the lake. We stayed in the Meadow Camp which is at the top of a hill and is supposed to be for larger groups of people (up to 15 on a site) though there were only 2 of us. The sites are quite large and level with a connected tent pad area. None of the sites have water hook-up but faucets are nearby, though they could have been better marked. The park has a very large beach area with a snack bar and a huge marina with a restaurant. There were many many boats on the lake. There is a substantial hill on the road to get into the park. Most of the camping areas, particularly Ridge & Meadow, are quite a distance from the beach and marina areas. It is possible to walk or bike to those areas however there are is a large hill to go up and down. The dump station was very large, level, and could accommodate more than one camping unit at a time, though there was a line to dump when we left. - liz&denis
Beautiful park with lots to do. Basically clean, but our site was filthy on arrival. Half filled bag with cigarette butts and trash before we could settle in. Fireplace full of trash and ash. Otherwise, thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Lots are spacious and offer some shade. Site surface is gravel and features a fire ring and picnic table. - judy p
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Seven Points Campground »We were camping in Senoia. There is a huge hill and we were at the very top of that. It's a good location if you want to be away from other people but very difficult to walk anywhere around the park or to the lake with such a hill to walk up. There was a skunk at our site. There were chipmunks everywhere getting into things, climbing on other campers, etc. The weeds are very very overgrown. We had to park our boat (which no-one ever explained to us) at the bottom of the bank and go through other people's campsites after we docked. The poison around this place is awful, I came home with a bad rash. There was poison all over the sides of the sites, and all over the banks. The bathrooms are push button so you have to push a button every 15 seconds to get a shower. They are painted in black so you cannot see of any stains or dirt. (Yes, I'm a germaphobe and like to know what I'm touching). Poorly maintained. The mirrors at the sink are disgusting and scratched everywhere. Every time you leave your site you basically have to drive. Drive to the marina, drive to your boat (depending on where you stay), drive to the beach... and it's a 1 way at the bottom so that was kind of annoying to me as well. The trails are not easily accessed. No clear signs to point where to go. There was basically a non-existent "store". On the day of check-in, the lady didn't explain we had to put a paper up at our pole in front of our site. Maybe this place is better for the more experienced camper. This was one of our 1st bigger trips camping. We had 2 kids (14, 9). The lake is beautiful though. Didn't really catch any fish. Overall, I think it's an OK campground if you are into very primitive type camping and are a little more experienced with it and do not mind overgrown weeds, push button showers, and having to drive everywhere you go. The only activity worth while for the kids were the playground and the beach/lake/boating. Not a very interactive place. - danigurl570

Rating: 8 7 7 2 10 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: As others have noted the campground is situated on a slight hill and the turns in the campground are somewhat tight for a larger rig. But my 39' motorhome turns quite sharply so it wasn't a big problem for me. As instructed in my emailed confirmation, I stopped at the office near the road and was greeted warmly by staff and directed to my site. Unhooking toad was suggested near the storage buildings by the staff. My pull-thru site was sloping but my levelers were able to compensate. No problems at all with power. The sites are tight but I did not have a next-door neighbor during my stay. My only complaint was that the water pressure was low, reading about 30 psi on my gauge. I would certainly stay here again, perhaps requesting a back-in site which appeared a little longer and more level. - Rob R
Watch such side of the road your GPS tells you the campground is on. One side is the convention center and across the street is the campground. It's a little hard to see it. - har-fl
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Wright's Orchard Station Campground »Campground is off the main road enough so the traffic noise is minimum, all utilities were fine. Cable had about 12 channels, most were religious, and repeated many times. WIFI was poor. We had a back in site,luckily the pull thru across from us was empty, so we pulled into it and then backed our 42 foot 5th wheel into our site, otherwise, it would have been a challenge. Most folks in the campground were workers working on the pipe line, so lots of trucks leaving around 6AM every day. Campground is centrally located for train watching, and the slinky factory is a couple of miles down the road. - oldelmer1

Rating: 9 6 10 8 10 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: First time camping at this campground. Sites are well spaced where we were and the staff was great. Did't use the pool - was not open. Campground activities were well organized and well planned - Mother's Day Brunch. Follow directions to the campground as posted on their website. We would camp here again. - dadseven
This CG is very near the highway, great for convenience, but VERY noisy. It sounded like being in the infield at Daytona. It seemed you could hear the LOUD cars coming from miles away and hear them going for miles. Additionally, there was a neighbor who felt the need to empty a whole box of ammo shooting very loudly behinds us. It was better at night. Some of the noise factor could have been from the naked trees, so it may be better in season. We got there late to setup and it was pitch dark. FOrtunately the site was dead-nuts level and that facilitated a quick setup. - deewalttoolguy
