Findley State Park Campground
Beautiful fall camping biking hiking kayaking.... Looking forward to coming back
3 campgrounds with availability this weekend
Streetsboro-Cleveland SE KOA and Countryside Campground provide cabin accommodations within 30 minutes of Cuyahoga Falls. Cabins at these locations typically include electricity, beds, and basic furniture, with varying levels of kitchen facilities. Some cabins offer full bathrooms while others require guests to use communal shower houses. A review mentioned that "Family rented a cabin and it was disgusting. Dirty furniture-dishes-run down. Toilet looked like someone died in it." Most cabins include air conditioning for summer comfort and heating for cooler months, with standard units sleeping 4-6 people on a combination of beds and futons.
Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. KOA-style cabins generally offer more amenities than basic models, including kitchen facilities with refrigerators and microwaves. Most campgrounds require advance reservations, particularly during peak summer months from May through October. Pet policies vary by location, with some cabins designated as pet-friendly for an additional fee. Based on reviews from The Dyrt, "Friendly, accommodating, clean, for everyone" describes the experience at Streetsboro KOA, though experiences clearly vary by season and maintenance levels.
Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Basic cooking supplies such as pots, pans, and utensils may be provided in furnished cabins, but campers should confirm what's available before arrival. On-site camp stores at locations like Streetsboro KOA offer essentials such as firewood, ice, and basic groceries. For more substantial shopping, Streetsboro and surrounding communities have grocery stores and retail options within 10-15 minutes of most cabin locations. Woodside Lake Park and Clay's Resort Jellystone Park also offer cabin options with varying amenities and proximity to water features.
"We chose this campground based it’s prox to Brandywine Falls, Cuyahoga falls and Chagrin falls. Very clean and well maintained."
"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."
"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."
"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."
Available this weekend

"I really enjoy being my family out to woodside they have great amenities are close to stores just incase you forget anything as one does and the lake they have water sports games kayaking a paddle bike"
"Very inexpensive as well for added items such as wood, ice, etc... Also, great Putt Putt course."
"Huge pool, gem mine, mini golf, and homemade ice cream! *My 4 star rating is because after a huge downpour of rain for a day, our beautiful premium site flooded."
"Absolutely a great spot for large private heavily wooded sites! Only primitive non electric site for roof top campers is C5! Others are park and walk or to small to open up and be comfy."
"Highly recommend close proximity to bathrooms and showers. Spacious! Concrete slab with full hookup and straw instead of mud/grass. The bathrooms are very well cleaned and maintained."
"have been camping at Clays for a couple years now and if you have kids there is no place better tons of things to do, great water park, amusement place near by, good people and nice family atmosphere."

"This is a beautiful location. Lots of long term campers. Beautiful trees and the fishing lakes had lovely benches."
from $45 - $50 / night
"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 arrived mid-September 2020, so Covid has had it's impact and it's past Labor Day so pools / lakes are likely closed to swimming most years anyway, but given the size and amenities this campground boasts"
from $15 - $45 / night
"We were tent camping on a site w/electric & water. We had nice woods behind us, neighbors to the right and vacancy on the left (jackpot)."

Beautiful fall camping biking hiking kayaking.... Looking forward to coming back
We arrived in the evening after reserving our spot earlier. We selected a non-electric site that as near the entrance and despite a surprising number of campers on a Wednesday, it was quiet and peaceful.
Very well maintained and a visible presence of security and maintenance personnel who were friendly and helpful.
A very nice way to start our car camping trip.
We stayed in the fall for one night to visit Cuyahoga Valley Park (about 25 minutes away, as is a Costco). Many choices for short term sites. From the many permanent RVs and water slides in the pond, looks like it could be less quiet other times of year and a fun place for kids (we weren’t traveling with any). Staff nice and helpful but showers were old and dirty, probably in part to the high iron in the water (we didn’t hook up water).
We were passing through on a weeknight in mid September. Many open sites. Sites are paved and many are sloped. Most are shaded. Our site #41 was fairly level with electricity. Close to huge bathhouse with flush toilets, showers and laundry. High above the lake with views through the trees. Appeared there were many long term campers but just as good for our short overnight stay. Online registration. $45 for electric only site.
We didn’t engage in the many things to do. We are using it as a base camp to go to a Guardians game, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
On the weekend when it was pretty full, it was tight quarters and this you can hear lots of people. We kinda gave up having a quiet night and went inside the camper. Now it is not the weekend and very few people around. Seasonal are all together, transients grouped together.
Did get Hershey’s ice cream at their arcade.
Mosquito Lake gets a bad rap because of its name. We had such a great time launching our kayak from our campsite! I’ve attached a highlighted map marked with the sights on or very close to the water to launch a kayak. Additional kayak launch sites available around the park if you can’t get one of these. It’s great campground if you have kids or a dog. Plenty of great playgrounds and a dog park/dog beach. The camp host was very nice and welcoming. The wash house has laundry and showers. Everything was clean.
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.

FAQ:
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.
The staff here was excellent. We got a spot near the entrance that had the doggy play pen. It was a well built structure. I felt good about my dogs being in it. The campground is wonderful. So peaceful and pretty. As and added plus for anybody a fan of the band The Cars, Ben Orr’s grave is not far.

Reservation planning: Popular campgrounds in the area book quickly, especially on holiday weekends. "Very nice, comfortable campground, kids loved it. Only downfall is trying to find an open spot for reservations. Place is booked most of the time.

At Woodside Lake Park, a camper noted: "I stayed at this park for 2 months in 2023 and was planing on staying for 5 months in 2025.

Utility hookups: Countryside Campground provides full hookup options. "We stayed here in a 29'TT, 3 kids, 2 dogs. Well kept smaller campground. Was level side to side, lots are pretty tight in that area. Advice - get there early or you'll have many vehicles and campers to watch for as you back in!" advises Joe F.
