Venango Park Comments & Reviews
Visited Venango Park Campground lately? We'd love to hear about your adventure. Did you find us useful? Did we forget something? Anything our community should know before heading out to Venango Park?
Pros:
easy to get to from I-70
friendly camp hosts
lots of grass to walk dogs
beautiful sunsets
Cons:
-35 minutes one way to the nearest town with major stores like Walmart and Petco
-people did not care about walking through my waterfront site to get to the water (there were other ways)
-site was pretty sloped back to front and side to side but just bring leveling blocks and you’re fine
-dump station didn’t provide a water hose for cleaning the sewer hose after dumping – had water connection but must provide own hose
I didn’t use the bathroom facilities and forgot to test speed but I had zero issues with Verizon or AT&T.
