Safari-style tents and yurts positioned along the shoreline provide direct lake access while maintaining a peaceful atmosphere surrounded by trees and natural beauty. A recent visitor mentioned, "We stayed on the Eagle Point side. It's opposite the main campground up about .5 mile. The sites are not as modern but have more trees and natural beauty." Guests enjoy planned activities including movie nights, Gaga Ball, and access to an inflatable obstacle course on the pond. The nearby Mohican State Park offers additional hiking opportunities through forested terrain. Seasonal availability varies, with most glamping campgrounds open from April through October. Reservations are recommended well in advance, particularly for premium lakefront glamping sites that provide direct water access while retaining resort-like comforts.

      Berlin RV Park & Campground

      This is the cleanest park we've ever used! The bathroom is tidy; the showers are roomy and convenient to use. There is a nice playground for younger kids as well as a pickleball court and basketball court for teens and adults. There also is a pleasant hiking trail. We stayed in Site 42, a concrete site, which was fantastic for my spouse's mobility issues. The sites are not super spaced apart, but, with the graduated elevation, we didn't feel smashed together. We visited Amish Country to absorb the beautiful fall scenery, to shop at local stores, and to relax by a campfire in the evening . The campground was perfect for us. If you're seeking a wilderness adventure , this park is not for you .

      Mohican Adventures Campground and Cabins

      Could not ask for a better site. Absolutely beautiful setting. A nice small lake for fishing, and a perfect shallow stream for kids to play in, running right by the sites. The pool house and facilities are spotlessly clean. On top of that, the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. We even needed a jumpstart for our truck when we were towing the camper out on a rainy Monday morning and someone came around to help. 100% will come back and 100% would recommend to anyone.

      Berlin RV Park & Campground

      Nice home base in Amish country

      Well maintained campground with friendly staff. Super spacious and clean bathhouse. Close to Berlin and Millersburg for exploring Amish country. Some road noise due to location on main highway.

      Camp Sandusky

      Bed bug infested! Poorly managed. This place has gone down hill!

      We had to leave in the middle of the night due to a bed bug infestation. We let staff know we were putting our belongings out side and would come back in the morning. When we came back in the morning the owner would not issue a refund and instead insulted us. The whole situation was so unbelievably weird. I wish I would've read through all the reviews before booking. This seems to be an ongoing issue with them and the owner couldnt be less bothered. People like him are the reason Ohio bed bug issue will remain a problem! What we thought was going to be relaxed getaway turned out to be a very expensive nightmare. The craziest part of it all is this happend Friday evening/ Saturday morning and as of Monday he is already trying to rent that same cabin out to another family on camping sites. Don't go to Camp Sandusky. Its not worth it. I hope this helps someone!

      Malabar Farm State Park Campground

      Peaceful and Primitive

      Second time here. Quiet, except for the birds chirping.

      Only 3 other campsites in use on an August weekend.

      Water and pit toilet.

      Enough At&t cell service to connect, but it's not great.

      Clay's Resort Jellystone Park

      NO communication and severely lacking customer service skills

      I won’t rate the other categories yet but I’ve been upset the whole process trying to plan my trip and the people have made it impossible. I’m constantly unable to get ahold of the park. I keep getting put on the“call back list” when trying to modify a reservation only for NO ONE to ever call back. I finally get ahold of someone after a MONTH… only to have zero customer service skills… they just said“oh we don’t even have a call list” so I ask for another form of communication I can have with me since my trip is in a month and I’ve had these issues for a month… they offer ZERO solutions and are not empathetic either. Another issue was last year I was hospitalized for several months due to an early twin birth so I had to push my trip to the following year… when I FINALLY got ahold of the park last year the women I spoke with trying to manage the rescheduling…was ZERO help surprise surprise… on top of that it took 13 calls and weeks before a manager got back to me…making the window to reschedule or get refunds closer to closing adding stress that you might not get to make your next move how you’d like… anyway…I simply asked for dates that matched the costs that we already paid for the trip so I didn’t have to pay more… I simply asked for it to be within the summer days since my previous reservation was during the summer time with all the extra water park and amenities that close at the end of August. I booked when my kid could use all amenities and there were no hour restrictions either due to still being in season. However the lady couldn’t accommodate or recommend any alternate dates to suite my trip that weren’t several hundred dollars more… now we started out with a trip all paid for last year with all amenities no hour restrictions to a weekend we had to pay more and are restricted hours wise on the summer amenities. As the person doing reservations you should be able to recommend dates and help me plan the trip accordingly to the money spent and not sit on the other end of the phone demanding I just give you dates…. After our trip we will never plan or schedule anything at this park again. Regardless of the amenities… for families traveling far distances you couldn’t make it anymore inconvenient, difficult, and time consuming for simply planning questions or just getting ahold of you in general. No sorrys…. Just a whole lot of…”hmm that’s weird well oh well, next” kind of attitude. Zero solutions just excuses. So that being first impressions not too excited to find out what we are in for when we arrive. Especially reading other reviews about deflated balls so you can’t use the hoops, broken a/c units that the property won’t even handle that their own employees have to give up their own personal comfort cause management won’t?… concession stands trash everywhere… broken hot tubs, WiFi not working in cabins for night time with children is tough…sad that my family’s first camping trip ever hasnt even happened yet and it’s been nothing but a headache to plan because of the staff. Yall make money to make the experience smooth for your consumers but somebody missed the memo.

      American Wilderness Campground

      Money Grubbers

      Made a reservation. Canceled since wife had to go into hospital due to an emergency. No flexibility in the 7-day prior window. State parks and others have all been decent to us over this. We paid 3 days for a reservation we never used but canceled 2 days out. The park did not fill up so they took our money over a gotcha clause even after I begged the manager for her understanding. Under the circumstances, I was hoping they would compromise and take only the first night, but they are in it mainly for your money, I'm afraid.

      American Wilderness Campground

      Just beautiful

      fantastic place to camp with family and friends! There is always something fun and exciting to do, whether you're fishing, swimming, hiking, relaxing around the campfire, or enjoying the many activities throughout the campground. The atmosphere is welcoming, the scenery is beautiful, and it's a great place to make lasting memories.

      Clay's Resort Jellystone Park

      Overpriced under managed. Great potential.

      I have to agree with all the other reviews. It’s a great facility with a ton of potential it just seems poorly managed. The sites are not up to par with other campgrounds in the same price bracket nationwide. The staff does not have great attitudes and are put off being asked to assist. They say no scooters or electric bikes but there’s a thousand golf carts flying around because realistically it’s not a walkable park. They would benefit from a tram or trolley on busy weekends to go from camping areas to activities. Check-in was rough after hours especially trying to navigate to find your site is extremely difficult. We drug a few trees across the top of our unit. We were originate to have friends take us to our spot or we would not have found it until morning. Underwhelmed for the $180/night camp spot.

    Guide to Ashland

    Glamping options near Ashland, Ohio include both primitive and full-service locations within the Mohican region. Campsites range from elevated forest locations to waterfront areas with elevation changes between 900-1,200 feet. Winter temperatures can drop below freezing while summer days typically reach 75-85°F, making spring through fall the most popular camping seasons for visitors seeking luxury camping experiences.

    What to do

    Primitive hiking access: Mohican-Memorial State Forest offers free backcountry camping with Park and Pack sites accessible by foot. "The Park & Pack sites were a bit confusing online, so I decided on a solo exploratory trip before bringing my 9yr out... I stayed at Campsite 3, which was beautiful, tucked off of the trail beside a wide stream. Fair warning, you do have to cross a stream to get to it," notes Ryan R. at Park and Pack Campsite 3.

    Canoe livery activities: Visitors staying at luxury accommodations can access water recreation directly. "Across the street they have a Canoe livery, mini golf, go carts, ropes course and lots more. So much to do!!" reports Lo H. from Mohican Adventures Campground and Cabins.

    Educational farm tours: Beyond standard outdoor recreation, Malabar Farm offers unique agricultural experiences. "Louis Bromfield was a conservationist and among many other things (including winning a Pulitzer) he was in the forefront of organic and self-sustaining gardening. This place is amazing! (and would be an excellent home schoolers camping trip!)," writes Shelly S., noting it's "not your typical going hiking kinda campground."

    What campers like

    Lakefront placement: Many glamping accommodations provide direct water access. "Beautiful lake with lakeside sites. Wooden and peaceful," reports Janice C. about Charles Mill Lake Park Campground, adding that "they were working on part of the grounds and the improvements are very promising."

    Year-round indoor amenities: Some luxury camping locations offer climate-controlled spaces regardless of weather. "The staff is friendly and the indoor pool and shower houses were amazing. The sites seemed a little small so it might feel crowded during peak season," notes Renee L. about Mohican Adventures Campground.

    Varied terrain options: Campers appreciate different site configurations based on privacy preferences. "We stayed on the Eaglepiont side. It's opposite the main campground up the mile about .5 mile. The sites are not as modern but have more trees and natural beauty. The main campground is most cement pads and no shade," explains Joseph E. from Pleasant Hill Lake Park Campground.

    What you should know

    Reservation requirements: First-come sites are limited in this region. "A short distance from the main campground, the B class campground features first come availability, 'walk up' spots. Quotes, because each site has a parking spot and is easily accessed by car. No level ground to be found, but far fewer neighbors than the A class, main campground," says Jared H. from Mohican State Park Campground.
