The park is over 5,000 acres and not only has camping but hiking, volleyball, fishing, playgrounds, picnicking, hunting, horseback riding, and more."

GuideStayed here on Saturday night of July 4th weekend. Arrived after hours without a reservation. No information on how to self register or which campsites were available even though some sites are first come first served. Found an open site, set up and went to bed. There were fireworks (prohibited) and the campsite next to us played loud music but it was before quiet hours so we didn’t mind. The loud music turned into a party with alcohol (prohibited) and the loud music continued way past quiet hours. No campground host or personnel did anything about the noise/party. At 12:30am we moved campsites because we couldn’t sleep. We saw sheriff patrolling the campground - don’t know why they didn’t quiet the offenders.
The campground is large with many sites so the probability of inconsiderate people is higher. I won’t be returning.
TravelerGreat park! Sites are spacious and level. Very clean park. There are several full hook-up sites. Electric sites near the lake. We stayed at site #96. New Bathrooms are under construction. Campground is flat and great for bike riding. Nice playground for kids. Dog park nearby. Camp is near beach & marina. Also many shops and restaurants within a 10 minute drive. We will definitely be coming back to Mosquito Lake!
LegendStayed a night here near the end of June after a rainstorm. A few quick highlights:
Because there are a ton of sites, you can expect one thing: variety. There are plenty of aluminum Airstream, Winnebago, fifth wheels, pull behind, and tents. You can expect to find a little bit of everything here.
If you’re looking for peace and quiet, Mill Creek might not be for you. Most of the sites seem to be typically pretty packed. Generally, people respect quiet hours, but with sites so close to each other, noise is a factor.
The surrounding area seems to be pretty spartan. There’s a grocery store about 10 minutes up the road, a bait shop about three minutes away, and a drive-through (with some light groceries and drinks) about two away. Nice enough folks in all three :) Super helpful and accommodating.
Berlin lake seems to be the big draw. Plenty of boats, jet ski‘s, kayaks, and swimming opportunities. If that’s your thing, plan accordingly and you won’t be disappointed.
Overall, Mill Creek is a pretty solid site within driving distance of Akron / Canton. I’ll be back, with adjusted expectations.
Quick tip: My particular site was pretty muddy upon arrival. Granted, that was after a bit of rain. But it wouldn’t hurt to bring an extra pair of shoes ;-)
LegendWe stopped here for a couple nights to go to a Cleveland Guardians game and go to Cuyahoga National Park. It was within great proximity to both and had all the amenities the kids and I love. Swimming (wish it were open a little later…) laundry 24/7, a game room, store with just what we needed to pick up a few things, a pond that seemed to always have someone fishing at it (that’s a good thing) and a big wide sites to spread out and have a nice campfire in. (Wood available 24/7 and trash pick up at the site in the AM). It’s always nerve wracking when the fire pits are close to the rigs - loved that these sits were wide. And while there are likely people here it feels nice and spread out.
TravelerPros: closest camping to Cuyahoga National Park, safe, professional (labeled envelopes with information at check-in and wood delivery) Cons: bathrooms weren’t cleaned or restocked as frequently as necessary (overflowing trash cans, TP empty by 5 pm), shower curtains/showers had mildew, truly dirty bathroom floors, had to drive 1/4 mile to the one trash dumpster, unlevel sites
One more thing: there’s a significant raccoon and skunk problem along the section with water/electric back-in spots. We got to know our neighbors very well over two nights as we helped each other fend off multiple raids by entire families of raccoons and one very large, very bold skunk. We lost two camping chairs to the skunks because there was no way to fight them off once they moved into our shelter and, even without spraying, skunks tend to leave a scent behind on anything that’s fabric.
The price is okay in that it is the closest to the national park and the next closest campgrounds are the state park campgrounds (West Branch and Mosquito Lake), but the state park grounds are MUCH nicer and about $15 less per night. If you have the time to drive and can plan your trip months in advance to get reservations, West Branch is a better alternative.
ScoutAlways a great time at West Branch. The staff are very friendly and care a great deal about the quality of everyone's experience - they inspect and clean each site after the sites are vacated. The quiet hours are truly quiet, the bathrooms are very clean and fresh. Decided to rent a pontoon for the day - the boats were also very clean and well kept - they also have the option of an inner tube or jet skis if you want to rent those as well!

FAQ:
GuideWe just got back from our first trip to Mosquito Lake State Park Campground. All in all, it was a great experience.
We stayed in site 67, which is a waterfront site, with electric. The water is about 25 yards from the pad, but is visible from the entire site. The site was spacious, but not as private as some of the others. There is some woods between this site and the sites on either side, but other sites are visible. The fire pits and picnic tables were staggered, so it created some distance to make it feel more private.
The campground as a whole, was very quiet. We stayed from Wednesday to Friday. The group next to us seemed a little rowdy when we first pulled in, but by 10:00 there was no noise anywhere near us.
Most sites seemed pretty level from side to side, but where we were, several had a slope from front to back. Away from the waterfront, most sites looked pretty level. The amount of space between sites varied from site to site. Some sites had woods on both sides, while others were pretty open. Some had nice large grassy areas, others were much smaller. Sites from 214-224 are in a cul de sac and are water front, but they were pretty close together with very little privacy between sites, if any. They are very close to the water though.
There are bathrooms and water scatter about, but from what I saw there was only 1 shower house.
Wal-mart and other shopping and restaurants were about 3 miles away. Park was easy to get to, only one turn for us off the highway. Lake was great for kayaking and paddleboarding. Very nice dog park in a different part of the park. There is a boat launch accessible from inside the campground.
Dump station has 2 lanes which was nice when checking out. Fresh water fill up was also located near the dump station.
Camping near Chagrin Falls offers options from rustic tent sites to premium waterfront accommodations. The region sits on the western edge of Ohio's Appalachian Plateau, creating terrain with varying elevations and numerous waterways. Most campgrounds in the area are seasonal, typically operating from April through October, though several state parks maintain year-round sites.
Archery practice: Mosquito Lake State Park Campground includes an archery range among its recreational amenities. A reviewer notes, "Great park! Opportunities for disc golf, archery range, canoeing/kayaking/row boats, swimming (no lifeguard) and golf."
Fishing opportunities: Mill Creek Camping at Berlin Lake Wildlife Area provides extensive waterfront access for anglers. "A very nice and clean campground with many access points to the lake. Our camp site was in close proximity to the restroom facilities. We were fortunate that our spot was right beside the lake and we could keep the boat docked there during our stay," explains one camper.
Shoreline exploration: West Branch State Park Campground features numerous waterfront camping options and hiking trails. According to a visitor, "West Branch has private, spacious, shady sites. We can launch our kayaks right from our campsite. There is a boat launch at the campground."
Diverse accommodations: Tent campers appreciate the versatility at Punderson State Park Campground, where the terrain creates unique camping options. "A good amount of secluded and shaded sites. Really cool 'hill' sites that you have to hike up or down 20-100 feet to your wooded site," reports a reviewer who gave the park five stars.
Spacious waterfront sites: Visitors consistently mention the generous site sizes at Mill Creek Camping. "Low cost for staying ($18 for a waterside, spacious site for up to 8 people, 2 tents at no additional costs)," reports one camper, adding that there are "numerous fishing and open swimming opportunities (basically anywhere you want along the water)."
Proximity to attractions: Streetsboro-Cleveland SE KOA serves as an excellent base for exploring regional attractions. "We stopped here for a couple nights to go to a Cleveland Guardians game and go to Cuyahoga National Park. It was within great proximity to both and had all the amenities the kids and I love," shares one reviewer.
Site terrain challenges: At Punderson State Park Campground, RV sites present leveling challenges. One camper notes, "The lots are not even close to level. You will need a lot of blocks to get close to level. Saw one RV with auto levelers with his tire about foot off the ground."
Lake water quality: Water conditions can vary in regional lakes, particularly during summer. A reviewer at Mosquito Lake State Park Campground mentions, "The algae was kind of thick, which made fishing impossible, so we stopped bringing the kayak."
Limited facilities at primitive sites: Penitentiary Glen Reservation Campsite offers a more rustic glamping experience near Chagrin Falls, but requires preparation. "Would have given this site 5 stars but the walk to the site was a bit more of a haul than expected. It was just myself, kids, and pup. So it made setting up camp a bit more work," reports one visitor.
Wildlife viewing opportunities: Penitentiary Glen provides encounters with local wildlife. "The second night had lots of coyotes around, which is cool but can be dangerous if not careful of course. Coyotes were heard all around the general area," notes a camper, suggesting families should maintain proper wildlife awareness.
Playground access: Countryside Campground offers family-friendly amenities near Chagrin Falls. "Kids trick or treated and all campers were very friendly. Due to cooler temps pool was closed. The small putt putt course was still open for kids to play. Playground was a hit for our 8yr and under kids," reports a family who visited in October.
Animal attractions: Local animal facilities provide educational opportunities. "Nearby to the campground, about one mile South there's an animal sanctuary, Noah's Lost Ark," notes a Mill Creek Camping visitor, providing an alternative activity option during inclement weather.
Site selection strategy: West Branch State Park requires careful site research. "Check in is very easy as you pass the camp store on your way in. All campsites have a fire ring and picnic table. West Branch has private, spacious, shady sites," notes a regular visitor, who adds a warning: "Make reservations! (6 months in advance). Waterside sites fill up quickly!"
Water quality challenges: Some campgrounds have challenging well water. One extended-stay camper at Woodside Lake Park cautions, "I spent hundreds of dollars trying to filter and clean up the water to no avail. It damages everything and they won't put a treatment system in at the well pump like the 2nd well has."
Electrical limitations: RVers should verify power specifications before booking at Punderson State Park. "Very few full hookups. Rest of the sites only have 15-20 amp service," warns an experienced RVer, noting this could be problematic for larger rigs with higher power requirements.
