Normally I'm very adverse to staying at an established campground in favor of dispersed or even stealth camping, and it's always because so many campgrounds give so much space to RVs and place the tent camping too close that I just assume that's going to be the case.

This nice little place, however, makes it quite impossible for that to happen. Accessible only by boat or hiking trail, you'll only be among other tent campers here. It's the actual retreat into the forest you want, but with the only amenity being the most forgivable and welcome: toilets, if rather primitive vault toilets.

The view of the Allegheny is absolutely gorgeous as well, especially if you're willing to get up early to watch the sunrise over the hills.

If I had to find any gripe it would be that I like to hang my food 200' away from my tent as a habit, but the individual lots were too small for that. I picked the lot with the most space to let me get as close to that as possible, though. Still little to complain about, as everything's remain untouched aside from a knocked over bug spray can I forgot about and left sitting on a rock, and for an established campground the lots were still much larger than average, with thick brush between them for privacy.

Overall I'd find it an extremely easy place to recommend for anyone who wants to truly get away for a night and doesn't mind the trek.
