A Campground with Cabins!
Found a very unique feature of the Allegheny National Forest’s Willow Bay campground – Cabins!
In Willow Bay campground in the Allegheny National Forest, PA, along the eastern bank of the Allegheny Reservoir, are a dozen little cabins just waiting for the 2011 camping season.
Just to give you a heads up, these are not your resort style cabin with room service and indoor plumping. These are your bare bones, bring your own linen (sleeping bag and towel) and a flash-light along with lantern, camp stove, ice chest, and such.
IMHO, the best cabins are in the Deer Grove Camping Area (each is nestled into a dense wood with the Reservoir a stone’s throw from the cabin’s door) but there are some between Aspen and Hemlock loops the are closer to the bathroom/showers.

Glad you enjoyed your stay. We (ASM) just replaced the roofs on the Deer Grove cabins this past fall. Being from Johnsonburg and Managing Twin Lakes for the past 8 years I enjoyed your post at your arrival adventure there. Your not the only ones to miss that turn.
