Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Felicity, OH

The Landing at Bear Creek RV Park offers full hookup sites with pet-friendly policies at all campsites. Dogs must be kept on a leash throughout the park, except when using the dedicated dog park. East Fork State Park Campground and Kincaid Lake State Park Campground also welcome pets, with clean, well-maintained sites that accommodate both tent and RV campers with animals. The ground at Bear Creek is primarily sand, which prevents mud but can get messy with pets. Some reviewers note that the campground is still developing certain amenities, with newer facilities like the dog park and splash pad recently added. Each lot includes a fire pit with ample space for pets to relax alongside their owners.

Cabin Run Creek Campground provides pet-friendly camping on sites nestled around woodland areas, creating a peaceful environment for dog walking, though occasional highway noise from passing semi-trucks may disturb sensitive pets. Most campgrounds in the Felicity area enforce standard pet policies requiring vaccination records, waste cleanup, and leash control except in designated off-leash areas. Kincaid Lake State Park enforces strict leash rules at all times, even during low-occupancy periods. The park prohibits gathering firewood of any size but offers pet-friendly primitive camping directly on the lake. Many campgrounds in the region provide access to water features where dogs can cool off during summer months, though swimming restrictions apply at some locations, including Kincaid Lake where pets are not permitted in the pool area.

    Lebanon-Cincinnati NE KOA

    Fantastic Place

    This KOA sets the bar for the Ohio locations we have visited. The bathrooms are amazing and private. The tent site we had was huge and there were actually trees for our suspended tent and hammocks. The dog park wasn’t huge, but larger than most. The campground was completely full but still quiet and peaceful. The staff are amazing.

    Cowan Lake State Park Campground

    Large Campground

    Autumn is the best time to camp in Ohio. Lots of small bathrooms. Lake access. Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was due to the fact there was no quick reentry. Had to wait for rvs in front of me to register.

    Oak Creek Campground

    Easy place to stop

    Nice campground with several pull through sites for big rigs. Pool and new dog park with a very nice play area for the kids. We prefer site 18 which offers nice privacy and os next to a stream.

    Florence, IN…Nice campground

    Park is well maintained. Nice sized pool and very clean pool area. Park has a playground and dog park. Lots of space between campers with cement patio, fire pit and picnic table and lots of trees. We had no issue pulling in our 42’ 5th wheel. We came in after hours and our name with sits number was posted on the door and plenty of maps for the park. Nice layout! You could barely hear a train off in the distance which sounded cozy. Campground is about 30 min from Madison and Ohio River is across the street. Only con- trash cans are like in a whole different country and hard to get too. Would stay again!!!!!

    East Fork State Park Campground

    Overall great state park

    Generous sized campsites, a lot of them are wooded which we prefer, with around 400 sites there are plenty to choose from! Bathroom/shower facilities are updated and usually well maintained. There is a large public beach but it's on the other side of the park so you have to drive all the way around to get to it, no short cuts. They have a camp ground beach but it's been closed the last 2 years. Lots of hiking trails, bridal trails and a bike path. Wish list for this park: Boat rental, dog park, dog beach/water access. Overall a beautiful park.

    The Landing at Bear Creek RV Park

    Work in Progress

    This is newly opened and a lot of work still needs to be done. Currently there is no dog park, hiking trails or bathhouses like it states. Many of the spots aren’t even finished yet.

    When looking at the camp map don’t plan on having access to the creek or river. Your lucky if you can even view it.

    The ground is all sand. So while if it rains you won’t get muddy, but the sand is a pain and gets everywhere.

    Great stay

    Very friendly staff. The bathrooms having regular working toilets and showers. The bathrooms are very nice. There is a pool, volleyball courts and a dog park. It is hot in June, so bring a canopy if your RV doesn’t have one.

    The Landing at Bear Creek RV Park

    Family Atmosphere

    This is the best campground we have stayed at. We have been here all summer and we’ve had no complaints. The owners are great people who are always here working and interacting with the campers. Splash pad, pavilion, playground, Gaga pit, and dog park are a few of the great amenities. Each lot has a fire pit and the lots are large. They do activities for the kids every weekend and also have bands! It’s a fun place.


Guide to Felicity

Pet friendly camping near Felicity, Ohio offers a mix of terrain types across Clermont County and Northern Kentucky. The region sits along the Ohio River at elevations around 500 feet, creating varied camping landscapes from riverside lots to wooded retreats. Summer temperatures typically range from 75-85°F, while spring and fall camping seasons bring cooler temperatures between 50-70°F.

What to do

Kayaking on the Ohio River: Access the water from A.J. Jolly Park & Campground where you can rent kayaks and canoes. "The park is clean and well maintained... the boat ramp is nice," notes Jeffrey D.

Mini-golf options: Several campgrounds offer courses for family competition. "Golf (both full size and mini) and fishing seem to be the main attraction, there are also sports fields, a pool, and some short hiking trails," writes Dan N. about Kincaid Lake State Park Campground.

Wildlife viewing: Visit Big Bone Lick State Historic Site Campground to see live bison. "Great place to learn some history, hike a trail, and view the bison. There are places to have a picnic, and a small campground is available," says Lisa S. Another visitor adds: "We love the live bison."

What campers like

Lake access: Waterfront sites provide fishing access without having to pack up. "What a great place to stay! Plenty of water front sites for kayaking and fishing, clean bathhouses, easy to get to, beautiful lake!" says Kristen B. about Kincaid Lake State Park.

Historical attractions: Blue Licks Battlefield State Resort Park offers educational opportunities. "We enjoyed the history at this state park. I enjoyed learning about the salt making process and also Daniel Boone. They had a lovely museum for a small fee. They even have a fort on the property that we found on one of our hikes," writes Kenpocentaur K.

Nature center programs: Educational activities for children and adults. "The nature center offered movies in the evening for guest... Trails were well marked and the camp hosts were very friendly," notes Andrea F. about East Fork State Park Campground.

What you should know

Varying site quality: Some campgrounds have level sites while others require extra equipment. "Most sites are pretty un-level," warns Brittany G. about Kincaid Lake State Park. "Camp sites are all blacktop, level, and clean," says Jarrod M. about East Fork State Park.

Seasonal limitations: Many state park campgrounds have reduced services outside summer months. "When we went the first weekend it was open this year... we registered/paid online but the entire weekend there were no staff to be found," shares Kelli B. about East Fork State Park.

Distance to attractions: Water access isn't always as close as it appears. "The State Park is on one side of the Lake and the Campground is on the other. There is no public road between the two. The campground is nice but it's an extremely long walking distance to the lake," warns Karen J.

Tips for camping with families

Multiple playground options: Stonelick State Park Campground features several play areas throughout the camping loops. "Our spot was right next to a small Pollinator trail that lead to the water. My little ones had a blast riding their scooters around the round about," says Jess H.

Cell service considerations: Coverage varies significantly between sites. "For a park so close to a large city (Cincinnati), I was surprised the cell service was so lacking (on Verizon). We eked out one and occasionally two bars of 4G," reports Lee D. about East Fork State Park.

Halloween events: East Fork hosts special fall camping events. "What we did not know is that there was a HUGE Halloween celebration complete with 30-40 decorated golf carts parading through the campground," mentions Lee D., noting the road closure until 6:45 pm.

Tips from RVers

Leveling challenges: Many campgrounds require additional equipment. "The sites I'm at are on a hillside so think theatrical style site. None are level looking so you will need to know what your doing to level your rig," notes Bobby C. about A.J. Jolly Park.

Hookup placement: Check site layouts before reserving. "Designed by someone who was clueless on the general setup of newer campers and motorhomes... the location of the pads if you want to use your RV awning means your wheels in whatever your using are going to be nearly off the level area or in the grass," explains Jeffrey D.

Concrete pads availability: Only certain campgrounds offer this amenity. "Each plot also has its own concrete slab for your RV, so you don't have to worry about parking in the mud," notes Daniel G. about Tucker's Landing. Another camper adds: "Level concrete pad with nice views up the river."
