Headwaters Park is a 926-acre reservation located in Claridon and Huntsburg townships. The property is leased by Geauga Park District from the City of Akron in a partnership that allows for conservation of natural areas, enjoyment by park visitors, and outdoor education and passive recreation. It is Geauga Park District's intent to mange this natural area and to protect the water quality for aquatic life and downstream neighbors. Prior to 1932, the east branch of the Cuyahoga River meandered through a lush ravine as it made its way through Claridon and Huntsburg townships. Picnickers enjoyed many summer afternoons along it's banks; vacationers escaped to cottages nestled around adjacent Crystal Lake and along the river's edge. When the City of Akron began purchasing land in Geauga County in 1932, the cottages and neighboring farmhouses were moved and a dam was built to impound the waters in East Branch Reservoir. Having secured a stable water supply for the businesses and homes in their community, City of Akron officials opened the reservoir and surrounding land to local residents in 1959. In 1996, Geauga Park District's Board of Park Commissioners signed an agreement to lease the land and reservoir, and renamed the area Headwaters Park because of its location at the upper reaches of the Cuyahoga River. Visitor activities are regulated by Geauga Park District in accordance with the City of Akron in order to achieve mutual stewardship goals of protecting natural resources and water quality. Camping is available by permit in the designated tent pad or lean-to sites. Reservations for all facilities can be made online or by calling the Park District office.

This park is one of my favorites in Ohio at this time. Most of the sites are some what private. There are many trails and even a fog park next to the lake.
TravelerBooked a one night stay a day ahead of time on Ohio State Park site with full hookup. when we arrived the site had been given away by staff to move someone from a noisy area. Gave us the choice of a couple of other electric only sites. Found one right near the water and couldn't have been happier! Site 222 was on a cul de sac right across from the water. Site is probably under water in early year. Had a Pileated woodpecker visit us within 10 yards.
Can't say how nice Wilma from the park office was. She was very apologetic and at the end of our stay gave us a gift card to use for another stay. Both Wilam and the camp host checked on us to make sure we were happy.
Bring your kayaks and bikes.

My friends and I were going to a festival in the Northeast Ohio area. The festival camping was full, so we stayed at this location for a night. The sites are very affordable if split between little people. This very family orientated campground has a gravel road system connecting a ton of camp spots, RV locations, mobile homes, a playground, a swimming lake, and a even a fishing lake. The ground itself is huge, so kids can have fun and run around with other kids in nearby sections of the campgrounds. Overall there are a ton of amenities and very friendly staff. We told the office lady we would be back late at night, and she gave us a special passcode to the gate. That was super kind of her. The land isn’t particularly pretty and the campsite for tent camping are rather close together, but it’s a good location overall for RV’s. I wouldn’t recommend this location if you’re trying to enjoy nature, because sites are pretty close together and certainly not secluded. There are positives for tent campers including water taps, outlets, trash receptacles, bathrooms, and hot showers.

Lots of long term stays which makes this feel more like a community. Gated entry with provided code after payment given. We arrived after dark and had a little trouble finding our spot. Only because it was too easy, lol. We had site 12, which was upfront near the office, showers etc. Great location if your staying more than a few hours. Swimming hole is cool!
GuideGreat RV spot! Loved our short stay, clean & lots to do
GuideStayed here for a girls weekend in Geneva at one of the tent sites. The tent area was small (this is mostly an RV Park), but it was a good spot to stay! Showers and bathrooms available as well as electric hookups. Located within a matter of minutes to several wineries in the area. Entertainment provided during the summer time. Several lakes for swimming and fishing.
Scout
Our site was not level. Bathrooms were not lockable and therefore felt unsafe.
TravelerMostly seasonal campers here but some real nice reservable spots for short stays. Gravel pads but pretty level and lots of shade trees. Stayed here for a fishing charter trip and there are lots of other campers here for the same reason. We will be back again!
TravelerCampground has a nice fishing pond and another pond for swimming. Sites are level and have option of shaded or open sites. Located close to Lake Erie for swimming and beach time or fishing. The interstate (90) does run along it but never heard the traffic.

First, I’d like to inform everybody reading that the pictures listed here are NOT from this campground. I have reported the pictures to Dyrt as well. This is the absolute worst campground I have ever stayed at. Driving up to the entrance, I would bet my life that this is a junkyard. It is full of rundown and rusty vehicles and trash. We were brought back to our tent site all the way in the back (we were the ONLY tenters and there was only one RV spot rented so obviously locals knew something we didn’t). Staying there was so unsettling due to the trash, lack of amenities, and uncleanliness that we ended up leaving our site at 2am and sleeping at a truck stop. Consider that - we preferred sleeping at a truck stop Ford Focus to staying here. (The pictures I posted were taken from a google review to show you the actual state of the site).
TravelerThis is my favorite campground. It's small and lacks the amenities of most bigger campgrounds. There is a small shower house with a couple showers and toilets in each half that's kept pretty clean. They have spots for campers and tents, with primitive sites both with and without electricity. There are water sources spread throughout the campground. The primitive sites have firepits, as do some of the camper spots, and you can buy a wagon load of fire wood for $5.
Many of the vendors at the nearby Medieval Faire stay here for the 5 week run of the faire. Because so many people return every year, you find people gathering around campfires to socialize.
ScoutWe have a large group that has stayed there for the last 6 years..always a great time and friendly people.. mostly fair goer's...best tent sites around.. looking forward to this year.

My 6 year old daughter lived her farm animal dream life for a week! The hosts were so accommodating. My daughter loved the free movie nights under stars, running wild with the goats, and the play grounds and play houses kept her busy for hours! The eggs were delicious, I spent time by the fire, in a hammock, and soaking up the sunshine. It was the rejuvenating experience I needed. I will definitely plan to stay here again!
LegendJake from the Dyrt here! There aren't many places you can setup camp right by the river, but the Farm at Grand River has a great spot for those who love the relaxing sound of water nearby. Check them out and share a review about your stay on the Dyrt!

This place is pretty cool. Almost all the spots have a water view even if you’re not super close you can still see a small portion of it. The road in the campgrounds is fine for the most part, a little bumpy. There is an entrance down a rocky driveway to get to the lakes sandy edge which is great to bring chairs down and watch the sunset. It is a little busy during the day as there are a lot of seasonal homes here but it gets pretty quiet at night.
GuideWe stayed for one night. Beautiful setting with great views of the lake. What a gem. Our only complaint is we had extremely low water pressure so we filled our tank and used our pump. Problem solved!
GuideWent there, price was concealed , in the end 40 bucks, office had laid out bibles, well manicured and in a row spots. A different experience...
GuideWe loved it. Our site was right on Lake Erie. There was nothing except a drop of about 25' to the lake. There is lake access for swimming, boat launch and Jetsons etc. It was quiet and simple. We were there for 3 days and loved it. Internet is not very good if you need it go to the office. Not many people go camping to be connected though. I habe Verizon and the service is weak and spotty.
I'd recommend the place overall.
TravelerView of Lake Erie was great. Upper sites very unlevel. Zero cell service. Zero WiFi. Zero internet. Very low water pressure. Entry road was filled with LOTS of holes & ruts which were filled with mud mud & more mud.
TravelerThe owner, male portion, is very crabby and annoying. Got poison ivy off of their firewood, the store is very understocked, and the place is pricey. We stayed 1 night out of 3, family emergency.
Example: as we are eating outside, my fork literally in my mouth, the owner yelled from his golf cart full of drinking buddies, that I needed to move my truck behind my trailer, other people would enjoy the view. Please bear in mind, that my truck and trailer combined are shorter than the two monster class A's next to me. As I put my fork down and went to move said truck, he and his drunk buddies pull up behind me to chat with someone for several minutes stopping me from moving like he wanted me to.
TravelerThere really aren’t words! Everything is clean, quiet and serene! The people that work there we super friendly! Can’t wait to go back!
RangerThis is a quiet little park right on the water
Traveler
Always gorgeous. We went on a holiday weekend and so the campground was PACKED and a little too close for my liking, but for a holiday understandable. We stayed on the pet end and got a spot near the lake. But also this meant people were walking through our site to go walk to the water.
