Oh dont go to Chautauqua lake go to Kinzua dam....99 miles of shoreline kick ass place, nice mountains beautiful lake, 6 boat access only campgrounds, take it from me it's alot better and you'll thank me for it.....only 20 miles more in drive time gas is cheaper, 2 marinas on each end of the lake W/ bars, alot of private coves to pull into and enjoy whatever, not to mention all the seaweed that Chautauqua has.
