Wright's Orchard Station Campground, Pennsylvania
|
| | I stayed on the first night of the 2006 operating season (as advertised) and was really impressed. The campground, bath houses, and laundry facilities were very clean and modern. I was travelling in a 37' Class A and had site #1. The outer sites look to be the best for larger rigs - even though the pull throughs are in the middle, several large trees look like they would make it difficult to get a good postion on the site. No real activities, but a nice quiet place that is close to downtown Altoona and it's activities. Would definately stay again |
the next time we're in town. Says John
In case you don’t mind getting dripping wet, you can always go whitewater paddling on Bobs Creek, and since you might be in a lake visiting mood you can always take a look at close by Duncansville Reservoir. Whitewater paddling is
| pleasant on Yellow Creek, and Blue Knob State Park is worth checking out. An average amount of rainfall falls at Wright's Orchard Station Campground; July is when you get the most rain here, and the driest of the months is February. And if that's not sufficient, there's loads more to do close to Wright's Orchard Station Campground. If you're here, you might as well stop at Maple Hollow, and unsurprisingly Gillans Run flows through this area.
