Official Forest Service pageHandsome Lake Boat Access Campground
This small rustic campground is located on the east bank of the Allegheny Reservoir just north of Sugar Bay. It is accessible by boat ( Allegheny Reservoir ) or hiking trail ( North Country National Scenic Trail with connections to the Tracy Ridge Trail System ). The closest boat launch is Roper Hollow directly across the reservoir on the west bank and Kinzua Wolf Run Marina approximately 5 miles south near State Route 59 at the Morrison Bridge. Visitors should bring their own water as this campground does not provide a potable water source.
