Well kept campground with a pond. Bathrooms were well maintained and clean. Lots of stars at night!
ScoutFinal approach/exit to the park is very steep. Beautiful sites but fairly close together. Gravelled roads and pads surrounded by forest with three small streams cutting through. Sites are not particularly level. Bathrooms are clean and the hosts are attentive. The only trash bin is near the office by the out of service pool.
Guide
This campground has nice big sites, not the tiny sites that some Ohio state park campgrounds have. Most of them looked relatively level. However, there is no privacy, you are smashed right against your neighbors on both sides, and some parts were essentially just an RV parking lot.
The showerhouse was fine, I wouldn't call it clean as there was hair and scummy stuff everywhere, but I was there on a fully booked weekend so I guess you'll have that. The toilet/sink building nearest to our site reeked of urine, think gas station bathroom that hasn't been cleaned in years- looked clean but smelled terrible. There was also just one pedestal sink in this bathroom, so nowhere to put your things if you want to brush your teeth, even wash your hands.
The big problem was the noise. We were there on "camper appreciation weekend" and they way they "appreciated" us was have an extremely noisy, not-very-talented cover band blare extremely loud 70s and 80s music for three hours on Saturday night. They had big speakers, amps, drum set, the whole bit. You could hear it quite clearly and loudly from every corner of the campground. I go camping for peace and quiet, to hear the crickets and birds and the crackle of our campfire. I do not want to have to endure three hours of men wailing on their guitars and belting out every top forty hit ever written by Lynyrd Skynyrd. It was extremely annoying, disruptive and jarring, and took away from our camping experience of sitting peacefully by our camp fire. If I were to return here, I would call first to make sure they are not "appreciating" the campers and putting on an unsolicited rock concert.
TravelerMe and my partner went during Labor Day and left the fourth. We were there for three days and two nights. It was amazing. Our spot was a small walk to the water so we could fish and still keep up with the fire. We were right against the woods. There was a perfect flat spot for the tent. The trees were great cover from the bright sun. We were also able to walk to the restroom and could see the whole building from our site. We were site 009. So the bathroom was across the road. Everyone was very friendly there as well! The only downside was the grill for the fire pit. It’s at an angle so cooking on it was difficult as it was hard not to spill food

I have been living here for almost a year now and I will have to say it is really nice and well taken care of it’s not a big campground but it has the best people there and they have so many summer time events you can join in on if you are camping
Guide
We stayed two nights in our small mobile home. The pluses were electric and water hookups, and the beauty of the area. The trees were at peak color! The minuses were that some of the sites were very narrow, and some had a huge drop off from the camping pad to the grass. You almost have to drive there and look at the sites one by one to make sure what you're getting! Having said that, the area is well lighted and boasts a beautiful (though not really as easy as advertised) trail around the lake.

See note about Site 50 below before you book!
Needed to stay in Cincinnatti to visit friends, so decided to check out Winton Woods and we were so impressed! We had an electric-only site, which put us under established trees. The sites with water, sewer, and concrete pads are newer and nice, but the trees are still growing. So for the summer, I'd go with an electric only site to enjoy the shade.
The campground has a nice camp store with ice cream and other camping essentials (ice, firewood, etc) and the park has a great system of paved trails around the lake. The biggest surprise was a small laundry room that I took full advantage of: the washer was only $1.25 per (small) load and the dryer was 25 cents per 8 minutes. It wasn't fancy (and didn't have a change machine) but it definitely got the job done!
Even if we didn't need to stay IN the city again, I think we'd consider Winton Woods. But for an urban campground, it was amazing!
Important Note: We stayed in site 50. There is a large dip and hill leading up to this site. I would avoid for most travel trailers. We have an Airstream Basecamp, which has an aggressive departure angle and could handle the dip, but I think it would be problematic for most trailers.
ScoutThis is a super clean campground. Like amazingly maintained. If you are looking for a family campground I wouldn't stay here. This is not a kid friendly place. There is not space for them to run around. There is supposed to be a playground but there isn't which is why I did 4 stars.
If you want somewhere clean, to stay in your camper or just in a chair right outside, This is perfect. If you need somewhere to be for a night to leave the next day it's great.
It's not a good campground to explore or do anything at. Not a good one for kids under the age of 16, there is just nothing to do. When we were here 2 if the 3 trails were closed. We won't stay here again because it just isn't a good fit for us. But if you aren't looking for a family campground, then this is probably ideal for you.
ScoutSites too close together. Clean showers and restrooms. Not much for a family to do.
No playground for the kiddos, a small water hole for catch-and-release fishing.
Really nice for off-site attractions (Creation Museum, Ark Encounter)
No The Dyrt discount, Did offer Senior and Museum discount of 10%
GuideWell this is our last stop before we go home. The campground was very nice. Lots to do for the kiddos. Worth going back for a longer stay.
TravelerIt wasn’t exactly rustic but you couldn’t ask for much more just 10 miles from the ark . They have a few hiking trails and a creek the kids caught crawfish in.

This campground is a perfect getaway that's not too faraway from the Cincinnati area. Only about 45 minutes from the heart of down town, with twisting and winding roads til you get to the resort. You have the option of the lower deck (by the river) or the upper deck (by their man made) stocked pond. Enjoy lots of amenities, weather it be swimming in the pool, playing basketball, letting the kids play on a campground play set or just the many seasonal activities they have going on! Its fun for all ages!
TravelerGeneral Butler State Park it’s about my favorite park, it’s clean,  And the camping spaces aren’t real close together, and the restrooms are clean It’s quiet and it’s close to home.
ScoutThis is a nice little county campground outside of Cincinnati with easy access to the city. Prices are a little high, IMO, but the park is clean, neat, with lots of wooded sites!

Dangerous animals on site! My child was bit by a cat at the playground. The cat had been hanging out around the office and at the play ground for a few days while we were there. We asked the office to trap and monitor the cat per health department sugestion after ER visit following bite. The camp manager has given us several different stories about having trapped the cat and then not having the cat then her husband taking the cat to his siatera house. When animal control and Kentucky dpt of health talked to them they gave them all different stories too. Bottom line is they are dishonest people and have a dangerous animal on their property. Beware BEWARE!!! Especially if you have children!

Great location across from Kings Island. Many activities within this campus. Many beautiful cabins.
TravelerIt’s on the smaller size. Some sites are really short. Be sure to check the pad length. A lot of spies don’t have much room beyond the pad.
GuideI was able to fit my trailer and truck on the asphalt pad and then there is plenty of grassy area to spread out. The showers are low power and I only had about 6 minutes of hot water but that may have been a fluke. Overall the campground is well maintained and peaceful on a Monday during the school year. I took a short walk to the lake. It looks like it would be a good place to kayak. They do have kayaks for rent at the camp store but they look tiny like they would only hold children. The camp store is closed on Mondays. Great ATT reception. Avoid sites 42-44 unless you want to be up close and personal with the dump station.
GuideThis is a small campground with only one bath house. They are working to make improvements. It’s nice and quiet here. We are staying here so we can go to the Ark Encounter. Not a lot of camping available around here.
GuideQuiet lil place clean showers and bathrooms extremely friendly staff who will go out of their way to help you set up. (Was offered hoses and power cords if needed). I stayed in 4A and leveled with ease . It’s a back In Only but they are there with you to guide. Dog friendly which is a big bonus. Has some on site cats too. We are 36 class A but had many different sites available and some great looking primitive sites as well. We will be back to relax and get back to nature.
GuideI arrived later in the day after check-in hours but the campground host left a voicemail with clear instructions on what to do when I arrived. I love the location - close to a big city but far enough away to relax. The site I had was clean, included water, electricity, sewer and wifi. It was very close to a trail that went around the lake. I felt safe and it was gated. I would absolutely stay here again.
TravelerWe stayed at Three Springs from 8/14-8/18 2022.
It's a delightful little campground with great atmosphere. The owners are very sociable and easy to work with... All sites are back in, but the owners escort you to your site and guides you into your spot. The ride from the main road down to the campground is narrow and difficult if you meet another vehicle, but most understand the Check-in and Check-out hours, so it's not much of an issue. The owners are currently renovating and upgrading several aspects of the park and adding a Laundry for campers.
Definitely on my "will stay again" list of campgrounds.
Guidedecent size sites, some right on the lake. facilities are well maintained. mostly boaters, not much activity other than that.
Scout30 minutes from GABP, Paul Brown and Kings Island. Spacious sites and away from highway traffic noise

Reserved 3 nights here on a site on the inner loop (where the shelter and bath house are). The site was level and had some new gravel on tithe pad. It was extremely close to the inside circle area and camper hosts’ party for the holiday. A very large bounce house was plugged in and blowing about 15 ft. From our site. It stayed on all day and night all weekend. Obnoxious, loud, could not sit outside at all. Another bounce house was up near the playground.Campers were initially nice but then turned into an angry mob when we asked if bounce house could be turned off (10:15 pm?). Threatening people and rude behavior forced us to cut this trip short. We don’t recommend going there and doubt the KY state Parks are up to par compared to Ohio and Indiana campgrounds. Pool is closed also for the year.
GuideWe spent one of three nights booked here and left. The freeway traffic is very loud 24 hours and the train comes at least 2 times per night (2am and 5am Sunday night anyway) blowing its horn. After a long day on the road ya just want a good nights sleep…didn’t happen.We were in spot 75 with “water view”. Not worth the extra money, there’s no view from the site because the way the RV’s are stacked in. Didn’t even bother checking out facilities (or asking for a refund) we just packed up and left.
TravelerFriendly staff, level sites, surrounded by woods and water.
Twenty mins fro downtown Cincinnati.
Perfect for base camp to explore the area.
