My wife & I had tent camped here a few times & stayed in a cabin once well over a decade ago, and it lived up to and surpassed the fond memories! Everyone we encountered form the owners/staff to the other campers was really friendly. The cabin was spacious, clean, And incredibly cozy. We had a really nice warm welcoming basket with some treats & a note. I absolutely loved the view out of this cabin. All the amenities! The dog park was fantastic to let our girl run around. We all had fun in the game room, especially with the air hockey table and the ring game on the wall. The kids loved the pool, the Gaga Ball pit, & the hot tub. My son & I played the giant chess game. It was great to buy firewood right on site, the store is stocked up on everything you might forget, and the ice cream hit the spot! We did a lot of cooking over the campfire, but breakfast was great with the oven/stovetop and provided pots/pans/etc. We hope to be back soon & often! Came here to review & found my OLD one from March 24, 2013! (Full text below.) We've been to this campground a few times for tent camping over the summer, and we just stayed in a cabin for the first time this past weekend. We stayed in the Allegheny cabin, and it was awesome. Gambling that the first weekend in Spring would be good weather, we lost. The ground was snow-covered, but it certainly didn't put a damper on the weekend. The cabin was beautiful, cozy, warm, and incredibly clean. The kitchen area was well stocked with an assortment of cookware and utensils, and there was a great grill & fire ring outside. We made great use of the fire ring to make s'mores even though it was quite cold! The owners are extremely welcoming and friendly, and be on the lookout for one of the camp cats, Oliver, if you'd like to make a new furry friend!

Small oven, stove, fridge. Heater, gas fireplace, air conditioner and fire pit. We cooked at home and hiked or biked during the day. Jon the manager was super nice and replaced a chair we broke same day. He also apologized for not returning my call for 15 minutes and gave us some free firewood to make up for the minor inconvenience. I liked having a shower and bathroom in our cabin, but we did use the key to get into the shower house, which was clean and stocked. Nice place!

Stopped in to Mama Doe's restaurant at the Shiloh Resort in Clarington, PA (SR 36) just south of…read moreCook Forest State Park. First of let me tell you it is tucked in of the road. We went for the breakfast buffet. The restaurant is in the center of The Shiloh Resort campground. When we arrived (Saturday @ 11:00 am) there was an empty parking lot and only one other table seated. Now I was a little worried. Mid July and only one other table, what gives? I am normally the one to try and support mom and pops but I was a little apprehensive. We decided to take a chance at $6.95 it was worth a shot. And I am so glad we did. Mama Doe greeted us immediately with a warm smile. Everyone was very attentive. I loved the fact that they didn't load up the buffet pans to let items sit. Everything came out fresh. The Buffet Scrambled eggs or scrambled eggs with peppers onion cheese and tomato (and a hint of curry if I'm not mistaken), those eggs were delicious. Next sliced potato home fries with onion, perfectly browned. Thin sliced bacon (I like mine thicker, but it was ok) and savory sausage links browned to perfection). Thick sliced French toast, this was sweet with a touch of nutmeg I believe. I hope I am not giving away Mama Doe's secrets. Pancakes were light and fluffy. The biscuits were fresh and warm. The sausage gravy was ok, I prefer crumbled sausage. After breakfast, we struck up a conversation with Ray and Doe and the other patrons. Ray & Doe told us about the history of the resort. Then offered a tour of the place. It is a beautiful campground with a chapel, restaurant, main lodge, cabins, and camping areas. Right between Cook Forest State Park and Clear Creek State Park. I know we will be visiting again.

I've been coming here for years and I look forward to the trip each time. Delicious Italian food,…read morebest pies in the forest, and a wonderful breakfast menu are just the beginning. If you have a chance to talk to the owners you'll find what a sweet couple they are. Note: the restaurant is not always open Monday and Tuesday, so check hours before you go.

Excellent hosts and a beautiful, quiet setting. We enjoyed…read moreour 2 night stay at Lake Lucy. This was the first season the campground, and the 11 full hookup sites were well equipped with a gravel pad, fire ring, and a large wooden picnic table. A large play-set for children and a lake to fish in are ready to use. There is a lot of room between sites, and tall trees provide partial shade. The setting is close to a quiet rural road where Amish buggies frequently go by. A farm with donkeys and a horse is at the back of the sites. There is one private full bathroom with a shower, and one private toilet. Lake Lucy is only 15 minutes drive to the hiking trails of Cook Forrest State Park. There are several rail trails for biking nearby, and the Drake Oil Well State Historic Park in Titusville. Drake's well was the first commercially successful oil well in the world! Our hosts were amazing and open to communication. Firewood is available to buy at the campground. Nearby trails are the Route 66, Oil City, Samuel Justus, and Allegheny National Forest Trails.

Following the passing of the founder the park underwent significant changes with the removal of amusements, trains, and the zoo. In 2017, the Steinman family took the reins, embarking on an extensive revitalization journey. They meticulously renovated the pavilion and installed crucial water and sewer lines, resurrecting the campground and pavilion for their own enjoyment and that of the Mealy and Steinman families and friends. Now, after years of cherished private use, we are thrilled to open our gates once more to the public! Our campers can indulge in a myriad of activities, including fishing, biking, and swimming in the serene waters. Both ponds offer an angler's paradise, boasting bass, crappie, perch, bluegill, and carp. The top pond, in particular, has yielded impressive bass catches. Conveniently located just a few miles away from a dollar store for any needed supplies, with a nearby gas station at the end of the road, our site provides easy access to essential amenities. Moreover, we are a short drive from Cook Forest and the Tionesta Reservoir, ensuring a wealth of recreational opportunities for our guests. On-site facilities include water access for campers and a well-appointed bathhouse, featuring a full bathroom with a shower and an additional half bath.

Been coming here most of my life. I made an extremely disappointing discovery this weekend:…read more They have a partnership with Devil's BBQ in Brooksville Pa. I feel this is a very important piece of information for anyone who is deciding whether or not to spend their money here. When I saw the sign on the road I guess I thought it was just a generic bbq sign. I didn't recognize the logo. After walking around a bit it just seemed familiar but I couldn't place it. When I tried to engage with the clerk they definitely dodged all my questions. They don't operate the restaurant attached to the store/gas station/cabins. They just let them operate there. Definitely a big disappointment that they're sharing space. When I decide where to spend my money I take honestly and transparency into account. They're hoping the world forgot. They want to serve food at the location but not have to deal with the food service aspect. They want all the traffic that comes with that but none of the stain of the reputation. Nope. I will no longer book any cabins or make any other purchases at the store or gas station as long as they are leasing space and profiting from this other business. Any attempt to bully me to take this review down will only be taken to social media in a big way.

A major down side to this park is it is noisy due to all the motorized bikes and atv's that ride around from sun up to well past sun down.

Big Country campground is the worst campground I've ever stayed at!…read more The owners Bill and Mary are miserable. They just go around the campground yelling at the campers. You can tell that they enjoy yelling at people. They yell at campers coming in 2 min late or when young adults are driving their quads. Most of the time you can smell alcohol on them at night, when they are yelling at you. Unless you're in their friend group you can expect to be picked on. You never can depend on the bathroom/shower. They lock them all the time so they don't have to clean them. The water at the campground is unreliable. The campground runs out water often. They do not have well water only spring water. Because of the water problems the washers and dryers are turned off. The swimming pool has needed repairs for several years, and the owners are too cheap to fix it! There is only a few activities for the campers on select Saturdays. Except for the little kids playground there is nothing for the kids to do.
