For Forked Run State Park: Very clean, pretty park and very hilly. We stayed in camping area 2 on an electric hookup site. No central filling station but water posts in the campground that you can fill your freshwater tank from. There is a central dump station but no water hose for rinsing. If you want peace and quiet this is the place to come. Mostly locals and not very busy. If you want to mingle with fellow travellers and people in general, pick another state park. The beach is small but a nice lake and not busy. The more populated section was camping area 1. Larger pads for trailers and more level sites down there. But be prepared with levelling blocks on any site. Very few good spots for 25 foot trailer in camping area 2. Also the most steep hill in all of the park pulling into this section. Avoid the round about end spots as they are only 20 ft deep and are better suited as tenting spots. The dimensions of camping sites when booking online are not always accurate. Showers were clean and lots of hot water! Pit toilets were, well, pit toilets. They aren’t great at the best of times. It was a peaceful place to visit.

For Forked Run State Park: Very under utilized state park. paved pads are somewhat level however if you are tent camping good luck finding a level spot at your site to put your tent up. found the reservation system on the Internet impossible to use , had to call to make a reservation. There is no one working the gate at the park except for Friday Saturday and Sunday. really nice frisbee golf course here. The beach is small but nice there is no lifeguard on duty. The information on this site says RVs up to 30 feet, that’s incorrect we were 35 feet and had no problem on our pad would easily take a 40 foot or larger. 50 amp service at site number 39 worked very well. There is a pump out station in the center of the park. we stayed two nights in mid September. $25 a night, which includes electric. There are two water Spicket‘s close to our site but not directly accessible from the pedestal, would have to run your hose across the road or pull up beside the Spicket to fill. getting two bars of T-Mobile LTE and 4 to 8 TV channels with an antenna on our RV. for the price it’s really not a bad place to stay. Closest grocery and gas station are about 15 miles away in Tuppers Plains.

For Forked Run State Park: Secluded - no one on our entire loop. That was nice. Showers were decent - on women’s side, water never got warm; on men’s side, water approached lukewarm. Electric service had issues - brown out (around 60V) on second night. No water at sites. Pit toilets.

For Forked Run State Park: We were looking for a campground with full services after a week of boondocking. We're self contained and don't use the facilities except for an occasional shower. We stayed on a Saturday/Sunday in late October in our 25 foot MH.

This CG is quite nice. There are 5 loops. The layouts appear similar. Loops 1, 2, 3 are reservable, while 4, 5 are walk in. Loops 1, 2, 5 have electric while 3, 4 are primitive. Loop 1 has pull throughs. We stayed in loop 3. Sites are arrayed along both sides of the loop road and a circle at the end. The sites are back/drive in with a paved pad surrounded by grass. Most need leveling. The sites vary greatly in size and some are better for tents or RVs. Most are good sized. Tall trees provide shade and not privacy between sites. There are pit toilets throughout. There are two 16-stall shower houses shared by the 5 loops. They're a bit dated and clean with ample hot water. There's a dump station with potable water in the center of the CG. Cell coverage varies throughout the CG. There's usable ATT and Verizon cell coverage at the end of Loop 3.

There are at least 3 hiking trails in the CG. There's a swim beach at the lake and a boat ramp for small boats (10 mph limit). There's a nature center, disc golf, horseshoes near the lake and swingsets in loops 1, 3, 5.

For Forked Run State Park: Stayed here for one night. Very quiet campground, not easily accessible if twisty hilly roads are not your thing.
We stayed on site 19; it was a little difficult finding a level site, though all sites had paved pads.
Shower house was nice, but if you are shorter than 5'5", you'll have to do the limbo to rinse your hair!
Pit toilets were separate from shower house.
All in all, a clean, well-run, quiet campsite.

For Forked Run State Park: Quiet rustic place. We will come back to get away from it all.
