Paddler's Lane Campground

I spent two nights here while on a GAP Trail bicycle trip and couldn’t have been happier. Easy cash payment for camping and firewood, great restroom/shower facilities, and Bernie the host/manager was as friendly as can be. I’m a train buff so I loved the proximity to the track, but bring ear plugs if you’re not as enthusiastic about trains. Already planning my next trip through. The bat conservation efforts here are cool, too!

Nice place to camp with nearby ohiopyle state park and the youghagheny river in the backyard. The camp next to us set up movie night outside . The campground was quiet at appropriate times and the welcoming owners helped us find a place to set up after dark...

Very nice place to camp. Right next to the Yough river. Very clean place nice bathroom and showers. Water on site and they have the wood for the fire pits

Super beautiful property with super helpful + nice owners!!!! Owners are avid kayakers, and bike riders who are sympathetic + understanding to fellow outdoors people. I need a rest day after 10 days of BikePacking from New Jersey to Washington DC, C&O trail and now GAP trail. Additionally, the next 4-5 days has forecasted rain. What a beautiful, peaceful + quiet environment to escape the rain for 24 hours

I stayed at the Paddler's Lane Campground twice on a long distance bike trip in the fall of 2024. This is a really nice place to camp if you are riding the GAP trail. The lawn campsites are large and there are a couple in the woods if you go looking for them that are very nice as they are right along the river. There is a very nice bath house and rest room and potable water is readily available. The only thing one might want to be aware of is that cell service may be spotty.
