If you haven't seen Elk in Pennsylvania, this is a great Campground. The Elk come right into the Campground. Nice bathrooms and 5 minutes to the visitor center.

We’ve been there 4 years in a row for Elk. We love this campground for the space, the shelters, and the friendly staff and owners. They do their best to keep up on the maintenance and cleaning. No complaints from us. Beautiful scenery every direction you turn. Call ahead for reservations!

We averaged $37 / night for E50. This is a very basic campground in a beautiful area of PA. The site was spacious, sunny, grass back in and very level. Roads within the campground were easy to navigate. There is water available to fill your tank when entering and a dump station as you exit. The plug on our electric hookup was broken as it appears a recent user of the site pulled out without u... We averaged $37 / night for E50. This is a very basic campground in a beautiful area of PA. The site was spacious, sunny, grass back in and very level. Roads within the campground were easy to navigate. There is water available to fill your tank when entering and a dump station as you exit. The plug on our electric hookup was broken as it appears a recent user of the site pulled out without unplugging. It is over priced for an electric only grass site but is very convenient to Benezette. We were in the area to see the elk in rut. They are wonderful animals, especially the males with huge racks. The best time to see them is two hours before sunset and two hours after sunrise. The best viewing is not at the designated viewing sites but rather open fields along the road.

New owner in the past 1-2 years. Very clean, well maintained, spacious, open sky for star-gazing or watching the elk!

An amazing price for camper hook ups. Very chill area. Bathrooms could use some TLC but useable so that's what counts. As of this week i believe there are new owners. They have big ideas for this little area and I'm sure it's going to change a lot in the next few years. Try to bring everything you think you'll need for your camping adventure as it is slim Pickens here in Elk county.
