Left a day early due to obnoxious campsite neighbors.

We tent camped at one of the lakefront sites (025). The site itself wasn’t bad. All of the lakefront sites in that loop looked to be nice. We arrived Friday evening and the office was closed. No big deal, our tag was already on our site post and we had no problem driving up the road to buy firewood from a local business. The pit toilets were as expected (massive spiders everywhere). The shower house wasn’t filthy but had an awful smell. The office remained closed the entirety of our stay, and we never saw a staff member.

Our main issue was lack of oversight/patrolling after quiet hours, or just anyone to regulate obnoxious, inconsiderate campers.

The people next to us blasted music from 7pm to midnight, until I walked over and politely asked that they turn the music down because we were trying to get to sleep. They turned the music down but continued to be loud and obnoxious (not exaggerating) until after 5am in the morning. We got a few hours of sleep at best and were exhausted for our activities that day. When we returned to our site, we decided to pack up camp a day early and drive the 3 hours home because we didn’t want to deal with another night of them.

Great Spot

We had the whole back section to ourself! Not a soul on site but a few boats out fishing. We didn’t use any of the facilities or look at them but had been warned they weren’t the best! The seclusion and the view were top notch. It rained so we didn’t test out the hammock trees but we were able to easily get a dog run set up! Site 22 was our site but 23,24, and 25 all looked pretty awesome! We didn’t try the trails due to the weather but if you are just looking to chill at the site with a great view this will do the trick. We did buy some wood from the camp store in the morning a few small pieces of hardwood that worked perfectly!

Simple and pretty

Our first visit to this campground with a whim on picking a site. The pad was level and not bad in length. It had a tree on site for a little shade and some grass. A lot was dirt so watch out for the rain. We were across from the vault toilets and the amphitheater. The toilets aren’t great but they were kept clean. The shower houses only had showers - no flush toilets. We hiked following their trail but had to turn around as a bridge was closed. Great flowers and mushrooms and the lake was gorgeous. Some of the electric sites were very small or had a very bad dip on the pad. Choose your site wisely.

Almost heaven....

What a beautiful place, great campsite with plenty of room between neighbors, weather was perfect and the staff friendly.

Clean and well stocked restrooms, a nice playground and clean bath houses.

Kayaking is wonderful since boat over 10hp are not allowed.

Quiet and beautiful

We arrived on a Sunday and no one was there for us to check in with, which we found odd. Our next stop was the dump station to make sure there was running water and to our surprise, there wasn't. The only way to fill up with water was a hose bibb on the Ranger office at the front gate. The campground is perfectly set up though for people wanting more quiet neighbors down on the lake, it's more cramped in the electric sites and the shower houses could use some updating, especially with ADA regulations. Alot of local traffic like to drive down to the lake sites and go fishing if they're unoccupied, which makes for awkward stares at times. The park has great views, wonderful for kayaking, great for pets, birding, fishing and about 7 beaver dens and 1 very cool beaver dam. I definitely recommend this park for nature lovers and true state park supporters. I only give it a 4/5 because of the water supply not being open for use.

Stunning Fall Views

We love Wolf Run if you are just planning to chill at the campsite. Choose one of the “premium” sites for beautiful lakeside views! It’s pretty quiet and usually not busy.

If you are in to hiking, look elsewhere. There is a trail, but we have never been able to successfully follow it, as it doesn’t seem super clearly marked.

We got engaged on the lake view site in early fall and also spent Halloween weekend there! It definitely adds a spook factor if you are camping that time of year. We were the only ones tent camping that weekend!

Quaint, & Quiet!!

Great smaller park, (1,000+acre) with easy access to the interstate. My Grandsons Love that the water is clearer than most lakes here in Ohio!! The campsites wrap around the lake, so most of them are Very close to the lake!! Since it is a smaller lake, there isn't any high speed water activities to interrupt your fishing! Great for kayaking, which you can rent at location. There is a playground and a basketball court. And a nice icecream shop with reasonable prices, right at the entrance.

Needs Some Love

Wolf Run is a nice-ish camp ground. If you're just looking to chill at your campsite, it'll do. If you camp with the goal of hiking and swimming, I would look elsewhere.

The state park really doesn't have a ton to offer in ways of entertainment. The swimming beach is small and in direct view of a road that runs nearby, it's nothing to write home about. The hiking trails are not well maintained, and there are really only two.

The campground is passable. The initial site we booked for Memorial Day Weekend was super muddy, very small, and did not have a picnic table. I was able to switch to a different site fairly quickly over the phone. The site we moved to was bigger and slightly more secluded. Sadly our fire ring was a safety hazard as it was riddled with holes at the bottom. It also had a very small grate for cooking, meaning we had to build the fire up against the side of the ring in order to cook. The majority of people who camp here are using generators, so it can get a little loud in some of the loops at times.

I will note that it is possible that the campground would have received some updates before opening for the season if COVID had not hit.

Small but pretty

Not a lot of sights but very pretty. Some gorgeous trails around the lake. Tiny camp store. The first night someone came in & took our spot we reserved. Thankfully they left early the next morning. The trails were semi-busy until you got back in there. A lot of people were fishing in the dam area for the trout release.

Peaceful, not quite up to date

The campground itself is lovely, with some lakeside camping. Family friendly and pretty quiet even during busy weekends.

The downfall is the cleanliness of the facilities. Bathrooms and showerhouses are somewhat neglected.

Most people drive to the swimming area, however there is a walking trail. They dotrave kayaks available to rent, a nice way to kill a couple hours as the lake is beautiful.

Weekend get away with the wife and dog. Pet friendly park. Walking path to the lake which was very close. Would advise to visually check the sites, due to terrain which is rolling.

And kept on running....

Wolf Run State Park is in Caldwell, Oh right off Rt 77. No big cities round here. Lots of Ohio farmland countryside though.

There is a nice size lake in the middle of Wolf Run so everything is based around it. Watch the traffic when driving from one area to another.

The campsite takes up a small part of the park and there are plenty of activities in addition to water sports.

The campsite is basic, though about half the sites are with electric. There are latrines located conviently in each area and a showerhouse with laundry facility. The sites are nice size, close together and not a lot of tree cover. Well maintained and run by knowledgeable staff.
