Our go to

Camped here several times. Staff friendly and grounds are very clean. We set up camp here and ride the kokosing gap trail into mt vernon and back. They keep the bathhouses very clean and the water is hot. Would love to go back once the apocalypse is over.

Beautiful River

Beautiful location along a river. All the permanent sites are down by the river. Weekend sites are up front and aren't as nice. Most if not all are grass sites. Only water and electricity, no sewer, even for permanent campers. Has nice facilities, especially the pool and golf area. Also was a little hilly. Would suggest tent camping if coming for the weekend.

Quiet and clean

Nice shaded camp sites available. Quiet and relaxing. Catch a tube ride down the Kokosing River.
