    SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

    Mosquito Lake State Park and West Branch State Park Campground both offer furnished cabins near Cortland, Ohio. Deluxe cabin options typically include private bathrooms, kitchenettes, and beds with mattresses, while standard cabins may provide only basic amenities. At Pymatuning State Park, cabins feature electric heating, picnic tables, and fire rings for outdoor cooking. KOA Lake Milton Berlin Lake provides deluxe cabins with queen bedrooms, sleeping lofts, and kitchenettes. Some locations offer cabin options with multiple bedrooms to accommodate families or groups. According to one visitor, "The Deluxe Cabin was beautiful and very clean with two queen bedrooms, sleeping loft, 1½ baths, kitchenette, and 3 TVs located in a quiet corner with shade trees."

    Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Mosquito Lake and West Branch State Park remain open year-round for cabin rentals, while seasonal operations limit availability at other locations from April through October. Advance reservations are typically required, especially for waterfront cabins or during summer months. Many campgrounds permit pets in designated cabins with additional fees. Linens are included in some deluxe cabin rentals but not in standard units. A camper wrote: "The Park Model Cabin was sort of a half trailer with a full bathroom and full kitchen. The bed was the only detractor of our trip, as it was mostly springs."

    Most cabin accommodations include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries unless specified otherwise. Cooking facilities vary significantly between locations, from full kitchens with refrigerators to basic setups with only microwaves or outdoor fire rings. Ridge Ranch Family Campgrounds and Adventure Bound Shenango Valley provide cabins with electric hookups and access to communal shower facilities. Firewood is typically available for purchase at camp offices or nearby stores. The nearest grocery options are about 3 miles away from Mosquito Lake State Park.

      unmaintenanced

      the lake is beautiful  and the park is clean but the cabins or the one I was in needed maintenance badly.front porch was soft and spongy .the screened in porch had huge holes in the screens and a huge gap in the floor .the picnic table and fire pit were leaning  badly. the bedroom had a hole in the wall which should  have been a easy fix if anyone  cared. the boat rental was nice

      Salem-Lisbon Ohio KOA

      A Traditional KOA Experience

      This was a Fall camping experience in a cabin as we knew it would be cold in the evenings.  We also had a non-camper with us so this was a nice compromise.  We had a cozy cabin with 2 bathrooms.  We also had a small kitchen where we could cook when we didn't want to cook over the fire.  This was another way for us to social distance as COVID-19 was still an issue. 

      I also took photos of the camping bathrooms as each KOA does it a little differently. You will notice that the bathroom is unisex.  It is a single bathroom (toilet and shower).  This is in the center of the campground.  The bathroom photos below are not of the cabin. 

      The cabin you see here is the Deluxe. "Deluxe Cabin(More than two Bathrooms), Patio Deluxe Cabin(w/ Bathroom)- Evergreen KL8-9-10 Perfect for large family or two couples with two queen bedrooms, sleeping loft, 1 1/2 baths, kitchenette, 3 tvs located in quiet corner with shade trees. Sorry, Not Pet Friendly! Linens are included in all seasons except Winter. Please bring pool towels." Taken from Reservation Email. 

      For 2 nights it totaled $153.00 which is a good price compared to other cabins we were looking at within the region.  We could have had others camping in the tent section of the campground so it is an easy way to have a mixed crowd for a camping outing. 

      I did type in some information into the Special Requests within my reservation booking online, as I had a question about who had to pick up the key as a friend lived closer.  No one responded and I had to call them. 

      Cabins Check in is at 3PM and Check out is at 12 PM

      We were able to buy firewood from the KOA camp office. They bring it to your campsite and we were able to grill hotdogs and other food items on our camp fire.  Do read the general information closely and look at number 15 for a free scoop of ice cream. 

      https://www.whitehousefruitfarm.com/donuts  We did a donut run and explored the farm for our outing for the day. 

      We also spent the day checking out a local mill https://www.millcreekmetroparks.org/visit/places/mill-creek-park/lantermans-mill/

      Goddard Park Vacationland Campground

      Unhappy camper - again

      I told my wife that this was the rotten place that we stayed at before. She insisted that was somewhere else but there we were, all the people complaining about the nasty manager lady as we are swimming by AND the creepy, chubby manager dude with the grey goatee, ogling the little girls a little too long. Why are those people still there?? All she does is sit outside the office and smoke cigarettes and he creeps around. Everyone hates them and will smile to their faces but they're horrible!

      Pros: paved roads, mostly clean bathrooms and two swimming pools. Cons: Teeny, tiny sites. Bingo hall bathrooms are gross. Awful, rotten egg smelling water. The beds in the cabin rentals are rock hard. Horrible WiFi. Good luck if you’re there and the electric cuts out. Very few activities (which you will also hear about"there used to be so many activities" "Lisa never has any activities any more") Good grief, the people are unhappy but I guess, too cheap to move on to a better place? The entire staff complains about them constantly, especially Rhonda in the office. I just came in to buy ice, lady, I don't need to hear about much you hate your boss!

      I would suggest you keep looking rather than tolerate this toxic place and all the unhappy seasonal people and employees. Save your money and vacation time for a nice place with decent management.

      West Branch State Park Campground

      Well kept campground with access to beach and dock

      Each campsite in on a leveled cement pad and comes with a fire ring a picnic table. There is plenty of room around your site and you don't feel crowded. Most sites offer nice tree coverage for shade. The restrooms and showers are very clean and well taken care of. There is also a laundry facility and sink outside each one for washing dishes and water fountains throughout the park. There is a nice beachfront for swimming and then a dock that be reached from outside the park. A beautiful lake for kayaking or boating. The store has most camping needs in it and once a week they host an ice cream social. Has a very nice playground and a sand volleyball court. There are some hiking trails, but nothing extensive.

      Headwaters Park

      Campsite A

      Had a nice stay at the Camp Site A tent site, which they label as their ADA Accessible site.

      Overall me and the kids had a really nice time hanging atbthe site and exploring around the lake. Lots of friendly people too.

      Pros:

      • Tent site was generally good with a picnic table and fire pit on-site
      • Pull in parking right next to the campsite (which seems to be true for all tents and leantos)
      • Great walkable area with lots to explore with the kids
      • A few nice things just a 10min drive away like the Eagle Park splash park and playground and the cute Burton town square.
      • Tons of birds for all my bird watchers
      • Right at the entrance to the tent site area and right next to the restrooms
      • Sometimes people bring horses down there for a walk
      • Can't see other campers tent from your site (which i like because Im out here to get away from people)

      Cons:

      • Being right next the restrooms and tent area entrance is a higher traffic area. Didn't bother us much but could get annoying if woken up by a late night driver or door slam
      • The stump on the tent site has a snake in it. Didn't bother us at all, only saw it once as it was slithering away, but thought other might like to know.
      • Toilet was out of hand sanitizer

      FAQ:

      • No electic
      • No plumbing or showers (it is basically an outhouse)

      Roundup Lake RV Resort

      Great Lively Place with lots of Amenities

      Starting off, everyone from the employees to the other campers were super friendly! My boyfriend and I rented The Park Model Cabin which was sort of a half trailer with a full bathroom and full kitchen. The bed was the only detractor of our trip, as it was mostly springs. We brought our air mattress in for the second night and slept much better. The themed weekends throughout the season are fun and festive and there are a lot of activities to do and participate!

      Sun Retreats Geneva on the Lake

      It's Easy to Love this Campground

      As newbies to all things RV, we needed a place in Ohio to break in our new travel trailer. Indian Creek is family and pet friendly with all the amenities and even a great lookout spot across the street where you can take in a Lake Erie sunset. We loved the clean bathrooms and appreciated the staff's effort to maintain services while encouraging social distancing. All of their COVID-19 policies were well spelled out online and in signage across the resort so that you knew what to expect. All of the staff wore masks and bathrooms were cleaned often. Some of their usual events and programs were unavailable but they offered craft kits for children to pick up and do at their own campsite in lieu of the usual program. We enjoyed their beautiful put-put course and ice cream stand. They did not allow outside visitors in the resort. The only thing that threw us off was that the bathhouses were closed at night and we didn't know that until we tried to use them. The resort is expanding and adding new sites. They are planting lots of trees (it looked like one at each site) so the resort should become more park-like and less parking lot as they grow. We really liked the back-in sites with water and electric hookups because they were larger and more private and wooded. The fire ring was so easy to cook on that now I'm spoiled! The camp store/gas station was convenient and well stocked with camping supplies. Golf carts are available to rent if you need them to navigate this huge park. We rode our bikes instead. There is a township park just down the road towards Geneva-on-the-Lake proper that we used to spend some leisure and exercise time near the lake. We look forward to visiting this RV resort again in the future!

      Bear Run Campground

      Loads to do...!

      This campground is deceptively big! The nightly RV sites are close to the park entrance and are relatively flat. The campground hosts themed events, game nights and arts& crafts. There is a swimming pool and playground for the kids. It also has a small café that sells baked goods and coffee. On Saturdays they sell amazing Armish Donuts! 

      Further into the campground the sites turn to more permanent sites. Further up the hill are more cottages and camping. This campground is steep in parts and too large to walk efficiently. There is a fenced dog run area and a beautiful lake. All sites have fire rings. There is an onsite laundry, WIFI, onsite dump station and propane refill station. 

      You can also buy ice and firewood. The campground is gated. Lots to do at the campground and lots to do in the surrounding area. They welcome all furry friends!

      West Branch State Park Campground

      Wooded Waterside Sites

      Make reservations! (6 months in advance).  Waterside sites fill up quickly! 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. We can launch our kayaks right from our campsite. The shower house and bathrooms are large and clean. There is even a book exchange shelf at the shower house in case of rainy days. The park office loans games and sports equipment to campers. Washers and dryers are also at the shower house. There is an outside sink to wash up dishes. Bring your boat or kayak. There are many inlets to explore or fish. There is a small beach at the campground but a larger one on the other side of the lake. There is a boat launch at the campground.  There are playgrounds for the children. An ice cream social is held on Saturday evenings that my children always love to attend. There is a newer dog park near the intersection of Rock Spring  and Esworthy roads. There are many scenic hiking trails at West Branch. Bridal trails are located on Esworthy Rd. West Branch is our favorite campground and we make sure to visit every year.


    Guide to Cortland

    Cabin accommodations near Cortland, Ohio range from primitive wilderness options to modern cottages with full amenities. Located in northeastern Ohio's glacial plateau region with elevations between 900-1100 feet, the area experiences distinct seasonal changes with humid summers averaging 80°F and winter temperatures frequently below freezing. Most cabin rentals in this region require advanced booking, particularly for sites with water access.

    What to do

    Fishing from your doorstep: At Mosquito Lake State Park Campground, cabin guests have excellent fishing opportunities. One visitor noted, "We didn't have water access but they had plenty of sites with access and a boat ramp. The site was huge." Another camper mentioned the "great lake to take the kayaks on" with multiple water entry points near the cabins.

    Archery practice: Several campsites with cabin accommodations offer recreational target shooting. "We like to bring our bows and use the archery range," shares one Mosquito Lake visitor. Many cabin rentals include storage space for sporting equipment.

    Nature playground exploration: Families staying in cabins can access specialized play areas. At KOA Lake Milton Berlin Lake, cabins are situated near child-friendly zones. "If your kids are 8 and under they'll love the nature playground and nets provided to catch critters," explains a recent guest. Most cabin properties maintain dedicated children's areas within walking distance of accommodations.

    What campers like

    Private bathroom access: Many cabin renters appreciate the availability of personal facilities. At West Branch State Park Campground, "clean individual showers" receive positive comments. Several visitors note the campground has "large and clean" shower houses with "even a book exchange shelf at the shower house in case of rainy days."

    Lake views: Waterfront cabins remain the most requested accommodation type. One camper at Linesville Campground shared, "Our site had a great view of the sunsets and the water!" Water-view cabins typically cost $10-25 more per night than standard cabins but provide direct access to recreation opportunities.

    Winter insulation: Year-round cabins feature adequate heating systems for all seasons. "There is always something to do," reports a Mosquito Lake visitor who has stayed during multiple seasons. Most permanent cabins include electric heat, while seasonal units may provide only basic insulation suitable for spring through fall use.

    What you should know

    Tiered pricing system: Cabin rentals follow a structured rate schedule. At Adventure Bound Shenango Valley, visitors note "the only downfall is the price. Its $55-69 a night" for basic cabins, with premium units costing more. Weekends typically command higher rates, while Sunday through Thursday reservations may qualify for discounts.

    Site grading issues: Many cabins sit on uneven terrain. A West Branch visitor explained, "Our site was labeled slight slope. That was a joke. We were only off 2 inches side to side but front to back we had to lower the front 15 inches." Most park websites indicate slope severity in their site descriptions.

    Seasonal algae conditions: Water quality varies throughout the year. One review mentioned, "The algae was kind of thick, which made fishing impossible, so we stopped bringing the kayak." Cabins closest to waterfront areas may experience more insect activity during summer algae blooms.

    Tips for camping with families

    Children's recreation planning: Family-oriented cabin properties offer structured activities. At Jamestown Campground, "There are lovely beaches that were relatively clean, perfect for swimming and fishing." Most cabin sites keep recreation equipment available for guest use.

    Pet restrictions: Family pets face varying rules across properties. One reviewer noted, "I didn't like that pets are not allowed in the non-pet area as that was where the playground and swimming beach was. Made it difficult to swim and play as a family since you can't leave dogs alone at the campsite." Some locations maintain separate pet-friendly cabin sections.

    Wildlife education opportunities: Many cabins provide access to nature observation. "There is an eagles nest on one of the islands. If you take your boat or rent one at the marina you can go out on the lake and you will see eagles for sure!!" Binoculars and field guides are recommended additions to cabin camping supplies.

    Tips from RVers

    Kitchen comparisons: Visitors transitioning between RV and cabin camping note significant differences in cooking facilities. One Kool Lakes camper stated their cabin had "electric heating, picnic tables, and fire rings for outdoor cooking" but lacked running water. Most basic cabins require guests to use communal kitchen facilities or cookstoves.

    Storage considerations: Cabin storage space typically exceeds RV capacity but requires different organization. At Ridge Ranch Family Campgrounds, cabins feature "separate areas for equipment versus living space" according to regular visitors. Most rental units lack closets or cabinets found in RVs.
