"Nice campground with lots of sites, after the weekend we had half the place to our selfs, nice big clean lake that also offers row boat rental."
"There is also nice walking/hiking trails connected right to the property. Our visit was for 2 days/3 nights. Over half the sites are seasonal, so despite a lot of RVs, we saw very few people."
"The group area is circular and surrounded by trees which helped to keep it cool. Each site had electric hook-up and some had water."
ScoutI love campsites, especially the lakefront. But there are only a few waterfront sites and they are very hard to get. Great for fishing, wildlife viewing and swimming. You must bring your water unless you want to hand pump it from the only central pump.
ScoutWelcoming atmosphere. Sites were crowded but had excellent tree coverage. Over half of the campground appeared to be residents who lived there full time. Bathrooms were clean. Overall, this campground meets expectations but would not be one I would return to because it feels more like a trailer park than a campground.
GuideThis campground has easy access to the beach on Lake Erie.
There are full hookups as well as power only sites.
The park also has several public access areas and beaches.
Hiking and biking trails are also present and the bathroom facilities are clean and we'll maintained.
Some time in June you can expect May Flies aka Fish Flies. Plan accordingly.
Finally, I've never been to this park when it wasn't very windy.
ScoutUnable to find RV park after driving around area. Website not updated since 2018.
GuideA mostly seasonal campground that can be had to find. Super amenities with huge pool and large field with dog park, baseball field, bags, basketball and sand volleyball. Many trails to walk.
TravelerGreat little campground very relaxed, clean, nice lake. Showers are a little cold but clean. Friendly staff and seasonal campers.
GuideGreat starter campground which is just what we wanted - my buddy and I took his 6 year old camping for the first time.
The sites were not as secluded as I’d prefer but we made do. Nice hiking trails around the camp.
Watch out for ticks though.
TravelerNice little campground for a little getaway, great place for camping with kids, plenty to do from swim, fish, bike the whole park, play at the park, watch movies at night in the community pavilion, campsites are nice, have electric, water and some have sewer. Prices are good.
TravelerCamp site was nice with blacktop pad and once parked felt very secluded and could barely see site past truck in parking spot. Great for getting away and seeing the night sky. Beach and water was a 5.3 mile drive and wasn't alot of things for kids to do but ride bikes and play in woods but mine still had fun.
