Their daily rate has always been high but they give 50% off with Passport America. You can join PA when you check in.
Their website has some photos of the campground.
The Pittsburgh area is not a good campground area. The few campgrounds contain almost all permanent campers.
That being said Mountain Top is the closest campground to downtown Pittsburgh by far.
I agree take exit 16 off of route 28, Allegheny Valley Expressway. There is no tunnel using exit 14 and then Bull Creek Rd. I live off ext 17.
Passport America is only valid for first 2 nights.
