Great for cyclists along the Towpath in Cuyahoga National Park
Located about ½ mile off the Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath, this campground is a part of a 5th generation working farm. Both standard campsites and shelters are available and are scattered among a working Christmas Tree farm. A very sweet couple owns the place and runs the campground, George & Carol Haramis.
Each site is situated on grass, has a picnic table, and fire ring (firewood is supplied with your campsite fee). Both pit toilets and water are available to campers as well. Some are shaded and other sites have quite a bit of sun. The shelters are robustly constructed, but don’t have much cross ventilation as they are only open to the front, so are quite hot in the heat of the summer, and provide no barrier to insects. No electricity is available. Come prepared to hang your food (not for bears, but for mice).
They prefer reservations, but happily accommodated our reservation-less lifestyle as it was early in the season. Our shelter site was just next to the gravel parking area and overlooked the farm as well as had a great view of the sunset. Unfortunately, you can hear the highway from the campground, despite the fact that it is located a good distance away. It didn’t bother us at night, but we definitely heard it first thing in the morning.
Just down the road in the village of Peninsula, OH (and right next to the towpath) are Century Cycles (super helpful bike shop!!) and the Winking Lizard Tavern (fun restaurant/bar). After a long day of cycling, we enjoyed an adult beverage and some dessert after making dinner in the campground.
