About

Willow Bay Campground has 101 family campsites, 38 in which are electrical hookups, each containing a picnic table, fire ring, and tent pad. Facilities include hot water showers, flush and vault toilets, pressurized water fountains, and a trailer dump station. Firewood and ice is available for sale at the campground for your convenience. Dead and down wood may be used as firewood. There’s a broad, concrete boat launch with a courtesy dock and a spacious parking lot. The large, well-shaded picnic area, with restrooms and a pavilion, sits on a slope overlooking the Allegheny Reservoir. An early morning or late evening walk often provides exciting opportunities to view a variety of wildlife.
