Pymatuning State Park - Linesville Campground 3388 West Erie Street Ext, Linesville, PA 16424

"We were not overly impressed with this campground. The sites were very close together and felt kind of run down. It rained while we were there and our site and the ones around us flooded and turned into a huge mud pit making getting around without slipping difficult. The shower I used had a broken shower head and was about chest high (i'm only 5'2") and it twisted around on the wall once the water came on and made quite a mess spraying into the next stall over because of the pressure. (Hot water & good pressure were nice, but the setup of the showers and broken shower head holder left much to be desired.) On our second night, we lost power around 3pm from a storm. They locked up the bathrooms so they couldn't be used and told us we had to drive over to the beach area bathrooms (not a walkable distance, so we had to jump in the truck to go) and these bathrooms were DISGUSTING. Broken sinks, feces on the toilets, the water would only come out the sink if you held it on, so it made washing difficult. In addition to that, it was pitch black and had 0 safety lights, so to use the facilities, you had to try and prop up a flashlight. The campground also did not have any emergency/safety lights anywhere, which made us feel a bit uncomfortable and unsafe when it was later at night. Overall, we were pretty disappointed with our stay and do not plan to return to this campground."

"Pymatumin is a wonderful lake to visit. If you like outdoor recreation this place is phenomenal. The only negative thing I've noticed, first hand, are the beaches. The sand in the water has gravel. Tough on the feet but not too bad. Water shoes would help. All in all a great place for you and the kids."

"Last stop on our way up North. This park is on the largest lake in Pa and it was highly populated by boaters. This was a large sprawling park and I thought we were in a different section of it, but it was closed yet. We went hiking, driving back to Ohio, only a ten minute drive, and the path was very mucky."

"Really enjoyed our stay. The reservoir was far more beautiful than we had expected. We rented paddleboards one day and kayaks another and enjoyed every second out on the water. Some sites have a great view of the water. The only thing we really didn't like about the campground was the location of the dump station."

"Sites are really nice. Fairly level. We have a site on the outside. The lake is close but we can't see it very well because of the trees. I'll take the trees and walk to the beach. Staff is very friendly. Quiet hours start at 9pm. The bathrooms are bit dated and could use some updates. This maybe in the project plan for this park. The lake has a horsepower limit, probably 10. I will be coming back. It's only 1.25 hours from home. The lake is beautiful and you can rent a boat by the hour or for the full day."
