  Toledo East-Stony Ridge KOA

  Small basic campground near Toledo

  Our site was $59.95 a night.

  We were in Site# 504. We had Full hook- up with a gravel pull-through.
  We travel towing a 14 foot trailer and were able to fit both in our pull through site along with my jeep. The site was easy to level. We were charged $25 additional for my jeep since we were towing the trailer. We also were charged $10 because we arrived at 1:25 PM and check-in is at 2 PM. The park was close to empty so arriving early was not an inconvenience. We drove ourselves to our spot (no escort).

  Our site was shaded with lots of trees. This was a smaller lot with our neighbors fairly close.

  The lot comes with a concrete patio with picnic table and fire ring. They sell wood for $6 a bundle.

  There is free WiFi, although not strong. They offer Cable TV and there are many channels.

  There is not a community outdoor kitchen or community fire pit.

  They pickup your garbage at your site daily before noon.

  You are allowed to ride personal golf carts. They do not provide golf cart rentals. There is really not a need to have a Golf cart because it is a smaller campground.

  They do have a Swimming pool but it is currently closed due to maintenance (although it just looked closed- no signs of maintenance being done).

  There is a Playground. They also offer horseshoes, corn hole, giant jinga.

  They have a basic general store. There are not scheduled activities for kids.

  There is not a snack bar/restaurant on site.

  The streets are gravel so not great for riding bikes. This is an RV park with tent camping and cabins to rent.

  They have one shower house. The shower house has individual bathrooms with your own sink, shower, toilet. These are kept very clean.

  There is a laundry facility. It is a cash only facility, but they have a change machine. There are approximately 4 washers and 4 dryers. It is approximately $2.50 to wash and $2.50 to dry a load.

  They have a small fenced in dog park.

  There isn’t tons to doin the actual city of Perryville. But Toledo is a 20 minute drive.

  Sunset Springs RV Resort

  wonderful people

  we enjoyed our time at Sunset Springs. the owners are very friendly and accommodating. facilities are clean and modern, and the grounds very nice. work is underway to continuously improve the sites previously dominated by long term seasonals. new pull through are perfect for our 40 foot motorhome.

  we will return there if in the area.

  thank you to Brian, Cassie and Judy!

  Indian Lake State Park Campground

  FHUs Sites in a field

  PROS 

  Able to reserve 144 days prior to arriving 

  Very nice campground but the design leaves a lot to be desired 

  Friendly camp hosts who were busy picking up trash in common areas and cleaning sites Moveable picnic table 

  Metal fire ring with cooking grate 

  Site D45 level asphalt parking pad surrounded by grass 

  Great view of lake from D loop; some had water access at rear of site 

  Quiet except for campground party animals who kept it going into the wee hours of the morning 

  Coin-operated laundromats in non FHU loops $1.50 wash and $1 dry 

  Free WIFI available and able to connect at campsite 

  Dump Stations at Park exit have complimentary hoses 

  Camp store sells hard dipped ice cream 

  14 miles from the Airstream Service Center in Jackson Center 

  CONS 

  No senior discount

  $6.50 reservation fee for self made on-line reservation 

  Basically the FHU loops are out in a field…no privacy from neighbors and no shade what so ever 

  Grass around sites desperately needed mowed, if you could get thru the large mud puddles 

  FHU loop D has narrow roads and require driving on grass to back in trailer and some campers in other sites had to move their vehicles 

  Short length of campsite required creative parking of tow vehicle 

  Damn Canadian Geese poop every...what a mess! 

  Site number on electric utility box 

  FHU sewer connection at the back of the campsite so bring the looooong stinky slinky FHU loop D had tiny toilet building, but no showers; showers were in non-FHU loops 

  No entry gate personnel on a Friday afternoon to accomplish check-in. Went to park office next morning and was informed no check in required prior to Memorial Day. Never saw a Park ranger driving thru campground

  Gotta Getaway RV Park

  Ok

  This was an overnight stay on our way to Pennsylvania. It would be a bonus for big rigs as the pull Throughs are flat and easy to get into. We tend to prefer a back in because it usually gives us a bit more protection on the backside. Unfortunately, the site we were assigned took three blocks to level up, the the power was on the wrong side and our picnic table was in the back area of another camper. The bathroom was nice and close and handy. Some great effort has been made to make it attractive with two-tone tile but that is all overshadowed by the amount of spiders and bugs. I am a full-time RV year and shower all over the United States and this was one of the buggiest ever. The majority of this campground is for seasonals. There are some very nice seasonal lots with a small pond in their back Yard. The owner was very friendly and helpful on the phone. Serves a variety of needs.

  Delaware State Park Campground

  Nice Ohio State Park

  This state park spans over 2,000 acres and is just north of the cute Ohio town of Delaware. We stayed here for two nights while visiting friends in the area but wished we would have stayed to enjoy all that the park had to offer. The campground was really nice and quiet when we stayed there which was during the week and in the spring and not very crowded. We can imagine that this park is pretty full in the summer with all their amenities and close proximity to major Ohio cities. 

  The 'pod' layout of the campground made for large campsites (some sites are over 90 feet in length and well suited for large RV’s) with good separation between sites. There are 212 sites that have 50 amp electric. The campground also has yurts for rent (May through October) that are furnished with beds, table and chairs, a cooler, ceiling fan, outdoor charcoal grill and a picnic table with canopy. This is a great option for those wanting to stay in something more than a tent but don’t have an RV.

  There is no sewer or water at individual sites but there is a dump station and water fill station near the park entrance. Roads and campsites are paved with grassy patios that feature picnic tables and fire pits. The park does not provide wifi but our Verizon hotspot and 4G phone worked well. There are centrally located bath/shower houses with coin-operated laundry facilities.  

  The park is open year-round and great for outdoor activities; especially, those that are water-related. There are numerous boat launches, fully equipped marina, and swimming area. We launched our kayaks and had a great time paddling around the lake.  Be aware that there is no horsepower limits for boats on the lake and weekends are very popular for anglers in high-powered bass boats. The northern portion of the lake is a “no wake zone” which makes for a more pleasant paddling environment.  If you don’t have a boat, boat rentals are available at the marina. 

  For those wanting to hike there are plenty of hiking/biking trails for you to get out and explore the park.  Many of the trails link together so you can decide how long you want to hike. The Lakeview Trail was perfect for us as our dog loved jumping in the water during our hike. Other amenities in the park include a nature center, 18-hole disk golf, hunting, archery, volleyball, horse shoe pits, picnic areas, and an 800-foot designated swimming area.  At the camp store/office you can rent bikes as well as other sporting equipment.

  If you decide to venture out of the park you are only about 40 miles from downtown Columbus and less than 20 miles to the world-renowned Columbus Zoo (which is definitely worth a visit). The nearby town of Delaware is really nice with downtown shopping, restaurants, a historic theater and brewery (Stass Brewing Company has great Belgian-style beer with a fun atmosphere).  

  Would definitely camp here again if we were in the area.

  Arrowhead Lake RV Park & Campground

  Just a visit to check it out

  The pool looked to be the spot for the kids of all ages on this hot 4th of July. A well manicured campground, and while looking a bit narrow, it seemed some pull thrus for big rigs were adequate, with concrete pads and picnic tables. But all the driveways and pull thrus were gravel. Lots of seasonal trailers, and some large ones! No junk, and golf carts are restricted to electric.

  Cardinal Center Campground

  First camping trip 2020

  This was our first camping trip after purchasing a new to us fifth wheel camper. We chose the Cardinal Camping Center because it was only 15 miles from our home. We arrived on Thursday afternoon registered and set up at our site. Staff was very friendly and helpful, we shared some fresh veggies from our garden as we had way too much for just us and asked the welcome center to tell people to help themselves to what ever they wanted. we then toured the campgroundand found the stocked fishing lake (catch and release) the indoor swimming pool. The camp also has some very nice cabins, no restrooms in the cabin but they are very close to the public restrooms and shower house. We then went over to the shooting center and tried our luck with some silliolet and metal targets on the pistol range. Thy also have trap and skeet available. 

  Our site had ful hook-ups 50 amp service with sewer and water picnic table and fire ring for $44 a night. All of the people next to us were very nice and everyone respected each other's sites.

  I would go back to this campground again, we even extended our stay an extra day because we had such a good time.
