The Juniata is Your Playground!

Tubing on the Juniata River is a core experience of staying at Buttonwood Campground! From the convenience of our shuttle to the gentle put-in and take-out areas, it's so easy to enjoy a relaxing float down the river during the camping season.

Shuttle Ride Upstream

No need to walk or take your own car... just gather at the Rec Hall and a friendly Buttonwood staff member will meet you and shuttle you to the tube put-in upstream!

Put-in With Ease

After everyone chooses a tube, you'll set off gently into the current that carries you downstream back to the campground.

Enjoy the Float

The Juniata twists and winds lazily through the valley at a current that's just right for enjoying every moment of the float. And you might catch a train or two passing on the opposite bank!

Relax at the Campground

Once you've made it back to the campground, wade into the shallows and enjoy some time in the water. Or set up a chair and continue your Juniata relaxation!
