Dam, built in 1965, impounds the Allegheny River to form the 25-mile-long
Allegheny Reservoir. The campground is well wooded with mature black cherry,
hemlock and birch trees. The grounds are off the Longhouse Scenic Byway, a
29-mile loop that circles the Kinzua Arm of the reservoir.

## Overview

Buckaloons Campground sits at the confluence of the Allegheny River,
Brokenstraw Creek and Irvine Run in northwestern Pennsylvania. This 61-site
campground offers access to the Allegheny Wild & Scenic River and
opportunities for boating, fishing, wildlife watching, and relaxing in a
quiet, country atmosphere.

## Recreation

Water activities are a big draw to Buckaloons Recreation Area, including
canoing, kayaying, rafting, and boating. The boat ramp provides easy access to
the river. Buckaloons is the beginning of the second designated National Wild
and Scenic RIver segment of the Allegheny River. The first segment is from
Kinzua Dam to the Route 6 Glade Bridge on the east side of Warren, PA. The
second segment runs from Buckaloons campground to Alcorn Island just upstream
of Oil City, PA, a distance of nearly 50 miles. In this segment are the 6
islands of the Allegheny Islands Wilderness as well as many other publicly and
privately owned islands. Several public boat launches are located within this
segment to help you decide on the length of trip that's right for you. The
Allegheny is a "family-friendly" river, with little to no whitewater - perfect
for beginners or a lazy day of floating. Hunting, fishing, and trapping are
permitted in the areas around the campground, subject to rules of the
Pennsylvania Game Commission and the Pennsylvania Fish & Boat Commission.
Fishing includes walleye, trout, and bass. There is also hiking along the
Seneca Interpretive Trail within the campground or at nearby Anders Run
Natural Area.

## Natural Features

Once the site of an Indian trading post, the Buckaloons Recreation Center has
numerous apple trees through the area, as well as mixed hardwoods. Water-
loving species such as sycamore, willow, alder, silver maple, and butternut
are frequent components of the riverine forest. Blue and green herons, bald
eagles, egrets, and a variety of smaller birds can be seen along the Allegheny
RIver. The Allegheny is classified as a warm-water fishery, but some cold-
water species thrive as well. Freshwater mussels are abundant in species and
number and indicate the high water quality of this river. Deer, bear, turkey,
and squirrels are common, along with a variety of smaller mammals such as
raccoon, opossum, and muskrat.

## Overview

Farnsworth Cabin is tucked away in the northwest portion of Pennsylvania's
Allegheny National Forest. Built in the 1930s by the Civilian Conservation
Corps, the stone cabin is conveniently located 8.5 miles northwest of
Sheffield. It was renovated in 2010 and now provides a variety of modern
amenities, including electricity and heating, as well as telephone service,
Direct TV, and internet. Visitors to the area enjoy fishing, hunting and
viewing wildlife.  
  
The cabin can be accessed by vehicle, however mud during the rainy seasons can
inhibit road travel. They should be aware of current weather conditions and
the weather during their stay. Guests are responsible for their own travel
arrangements and safety, and must bring some of their own supplies.

## Recreation

A dam was also built at the hatchery in the 1930s, to slow and divert water
flowing in the stream to the concrete raceways and ponds to provide cold water
habitat to raise young trout fingerlings. Although fishing is not permitted in
the hatchery ponds or raceways, nearby Farnsworth Stream is stocked and
fishing is permitted. Guests are expected to respect the trout hatchery.
Absolutely no fishing in the ponds or raceways. The trout can be viewed, but
nothing should be disturbed. The Hickory Creek Wilderness Area is just a few
miles from the cabin. Chapman Lake in Chapman State Park, which is adjacent to
the forest, Allegheny River and Tionesta Creek are also within a short
distance of the cabin. Hunting on the area's ample public lands is also
enjoyed by visitors to the area.
