Need an overnight stop near pittsburg PA turnpike

I missed the Walmart part of the request, there is a Walmart off the next exit past New Stanton, that would be the Irwin Rt. 30 exit, approx. 1/2 mile off the exit.

I believe Fox Den Acres is the closest to the PA Turnpike off the New Stanton exit. They just upgraded their FHU pull-thru sites. New Stanton is approx. 30 miles from downtown Pittsburgh.

The KOAs in Washington and Madison are way overpriced and not that nice. Have stayed at both of them. We stay at Fox Den in Staunton when we are in that area. If you are going to be on I-70 there is an ok campground, Tomorrow's Star. It is an ok place for an overnight.

This thread is not about what the costs are and whether they are worth it or not, but if there are any at all which the OP indicated he couldn't find any. We are talking about an overnite so how nice or not is not that important IMO. The OP specifically asked about CGs on the PA turnpike between OH and Pittsburgh and the one you mentioned is in the western part of OH closer to the IN border than the PA border so is not even close to meeting what the OP is looking for.

I'm in need of an overnight stop off from the PA turnpike between Ohio and Pittsburgh eastbound. Motorhome towing (65'). I prefer campgrounds but I can't find any nor can I seem to locate a wal mart etc. The eastbound service plaza's don't appear very large and will likely be full by the time we stop at 9-10pm. Any ideas?

Sure within the first 100mi of the PA turnpike eastbound there are KOAs in Washington and Madison, PA both south and east/west of Pittsburgh along the turnpike and both have vacancies. Looking at my Garmin Basecamp there are tons of CGs close to the Turnpike all along it's route I would guess about every 50mi or so.
