Alum Creek State Park

Bill and Marge Davis had the dream of creating a place where families like their own could spend time together in the outdoors.  They dreamed of the giggles of small children as they jumped into a pool and the peacefulness of taking a nap underneath a big shade tree.  They visualized small boys with fishing poles over their shoulders walking to the lake.  They could even smell fried potatoes, scrambled eggs, and bacon cooking on a Coleman stove. In 1966 with 5 kids and a hole in their pockets, Bill and Marge invested all they had and purchased land in Galena, Ohio. The dream was shared with their children, and year after year, improvement after improvement, Berkshire Lake Campground grew to what it is today.  What began as open land a few rustic campsites is now 81 acres of primarily wooded area with over 300 full-service lots. 

We have 50 beautiful daily camping sites, all full-hookup, with both 30 and 50 amp service. These sites are available to rent on a daily, weekly, or even monthly basis. Centrally located, they are within a short distance from the store, pool, activity center, and facilities!

## Overview

Both picnic shelters at Dam Site Recreation Area make for a pleasant getaway at Delaware Lake.

Pack a picnic or fire up the grill with friends and family. Anglers might want to bring their rods and take advantage of excellent fishing opportunities on the river below the dam.   
  
In addition, the Division of Wildlife stocks fishing ponds in the 4,670-acre wildlife area adjacent to Delaware State Park.

#### Facilities:

Both picnic shelters provide water and electric hookups, playgrounds, a volleyball court and easy access to restrooms. An open grassy space is ideal for field sports like soccer.
