Allegany State Park Red House Area Campground
Established Campground
Red House Area sits in the heart of Allegany State Park’s 65,000 acres, offering 147 sites split across three loops in dense hardwood forest. Sites are well-spaced with good privacy, most accommodating rigs up to 40 feet. Bathhouses with hot showers, flush toilets, and a camp store keep things civilized. Peak season runs Memorial Day through Labor Day when sites book solid — shoulder seasons offer solitude.
Access via well-maintained park roads, though the entrance road climbs steadily from Route 17. Open year-round but services reduced October through April. Cell service spotty throughout the park. Popular base camp for exploring the vast trail network and nearby Pennsylvania state forests.
