Customer Reviews
I've camped in the Forbes State Forest several times this year and this time it was at Motorized Campsite #6. It's near Mt. Davis the highest point in PA. The site is a few hundred yards off of Mt. Davis road and is relatively level. I did have people drive up to the campsite twice while I was there. The gated road next to the campsite was a nice walk down to the field. Other than the rainy weather it was a great camping experience.
You're on the side of a trail and will likely have traffic and especially so during hunting season, but I never felt invaded. I was nice and tucked away from the wind. I've been to 6 total motorized campsites (4 in Forbes and 2 in Buchanan) and this one ranks #4. My jeep broke so I had to get a UHaul because I'm dedicated to monthly camping for mental health.
I wanted to take my new rooftop tent out to the woods for its first test. This site was very easy to find and very level. It was far enough off of the road to eliminate traffic noise. I did not find a water source nearby, but I didn't do a lot of exploring. It was the perfect spot for setting up for the night.
Great location for a single family camp trip.
Easy access and far enough from the main road for privacy. Firering and picnic table
