Hocking Hills Jellystone Campground

4 ReviewsAdd Review

This family-focused campground sits five miles west of New Plymouth, Ohio, operating from mid-April through mid-October on private land near a lake. The property accommodates RVs up to 30 feet with full hookups including electric, water, and sewer connections, plus standard amenities like restrooms, showers, and WiFi.

Site conditions vary significantly across the property. Some campsites lack grass coverage, with gravel extending up to 12 feet from RV parking areas. Certain sites function more like driveways or turnarounds, leading to occasional confusion from other guests with golf carts attempting to drive through occupied spaces. The access road can present challenges for some visitors.

Children find plenty to occupy their time here. The property provides free tricycles for riding around the grounds and features a bouncy play area. Vance M. notes the "lake with a trampoline and activities all the time." The shower facilities require some attention but remain functional for guests.

Campers planning longer stays in the region can explore camping destinations outside New Plymouth or visit nearby Lake Hope State Park Campground for additional outdoor recreation options. Reservations are available, and pets are welcome throughout the property.

Guests commonly noted excellent family activities with kids enjoying lake access, trampolines, and constant entertainment options. However, recent feedback indicated serious concerns about site conditions and unprofessional management interactions that detracted from the experience.

Disappointed. Waste of Money. Rude owners

The site that we are currently staying in is nothing like the pictures online(I am more than happy to share photos.) I contacted the owner, he talked down to me, continually interrupted me and even raised his voice trying to intimidate me. The site has serious concerns. Such as the Nextdoor cabin fire pit is located less than 6ft from where I am suppose to park my brand new truck. There is only gravel, no grass for 12ft outside of our camper. Our site appears to be a driveway or turnaround and numerous ppl have tried to drive through, Esp with gulf carts. I raised my concerns and unhappiness to the owners and they argued and talked down to me. The husband raised his voice and essentially yelled at me basically telling me we could pack up and leave. This has not been a great experience so far and I am not sure I will ever stay at a jellystone or recommend one to anyone in the future.

Nice campground

Jelly stone had just taken over, but you could tell updates were on the way. The shower house needs some attention, but they were usable. Kids really enjoyed everything. Free tricycles to ride around. Bouncy area, lake with a trampoline and activities all the time.

Fantastic!

We loved it. Our kids had a blast and didn’t run out of things to do or kids to play with. We weren’t very far from mold Mans Cave either.
