      Woodside Lake Park

      Convenient and lots of choices

      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).

      West Branch State Park Campground

      Great overnight close to Ohio Turnpike

      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.

      Punderson State Park Campground

      Quiet and Lush

      Our site was level, although I observed many that are not. It was fairly quiet, although the sites are pretty small. Ours was described as 'waterfront', but it was so overgrown between the site and the shoreline that there was no access and the lake wasn't visible. Bathrooms were very clean and the shower worked great.

      Mosquito Lake State Park Campground

      Relaxing and peaceful

      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.

      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)

      Clay's Resort Jellystone Park

      NO communication and severely lacking customer service skills

      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.

      Thompson/Grand River Valley KOA Holiday

      Enjoyable

       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.

      Punderson State Park Campground

      One of our favorites

      We love this park! Unfortunately it’s been so booked this summer we haven’t been able to go. It’s literally 30 minutes from us. The sites are fairly nice. Some near the water are shallow and you have to be careful. The park surrounding it is lovely. There’s a beach, a golf course and even a lodge and cabins. We always get good internet with our hot spot. If I’m being honest though, the worst thing is the bath house. The showers suck! There’s no privacy and I would never use them. There’s a nice playground for kids and a little nature center. We love riding our e-bikes there. Lots of critters and I’ve even seen an otter! Give it a try if you can find an opening!

      American Wilderness Campground

      Money Grubbers

      Made a reservation. Canceled since wife had to go into hospital due to an emergency. No flexibility in the 7-day prior window. State parks and others have all been decent to us over this. We paid 3 days for a reservation we never used but canceled 2 days out. The park did not fill up so they took our money over a gotcha clause even after I begged the manager for her understanding. Under the circumstances, I was hoping they would compromise and take only the first night, but they are in it mainly for your money, I'm afraid.

    Guide to Hiram

    West Branch State Park offers camping options near Hiram, Ohio with over 200 acres of waterfront access on the Kirwan Reservoir. The park's campground sits at approximately 1,050 feet elevation with a continental climate that produces warm summers and moderately cold winters. Several campgrounds in the region remain open from spring through fall, with limited winter access available at select locations.

    What to do

    Hiking and trails: Several nature trails wind through the parks near Hiram. At West Branch State Park Campground, visitors can explore scenic hiking paths. "There are many scenic hiking trails at West Branch. Bridal trails are located on Esworthy Rd," notes Alisa G., who visits annually.

    Lake activities: Fishing is popular at Mill Creek Camping, where waterfront sites provide direct access. "We have our own private little beach which our dog loves. We can keep the boat docked there during our stay," comments Sarah K. The lake offers multiple access points for anglers.

    Archery practice: Some parks offer specialized recreational facilities. "Opportunities for disc golf, archery range, canoeing/kayaking/row boats, swimming (no lifeguard) and golf," mentions Rebecca G. about Punderson State Park, highlighting activities beyond standard camping.

    What campers like

    Private campsites: The separation between sites at Punderson State Park Campground is appreciated by many. "Beautiful scenery, very large park... 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," describes Daniel U.

    Clean facilities: Bathroom quality varies significantly between campgrounds. "Best bathrooms around! Showers great. Bathrooms great. Lots of 'lakefront' spots. Dog park is pretty great, too! Good spot to camp for Cuyahoga Falls National Park," reports Kim B. about West Branch State Park.

    Seasonal activities: Many campgrounds offer regular weekend events. "An ice cream social is held on Saturday evenings that my children always love to attend," shares Alisa G. about West Branch State Park, while Mosquito Lake State Park hosts "Concert every Saturday during the summer."

    What you should know

    Water conditions: Water quality varies significantly between campgrounds. At Mosquito Lake State Park Campground, "The algae was kind of thick, which made fishing impossible, so we stopped bringing the kayak," reports Rose S., highlighting seasonal water quality considerations.

    Booking requirements: Popular parks fill quickly, especially for premium sites. "Make reservations! (6 months in advance). Waterside sites fill up quickly!" advises Alisa G. about West Branch State Park. Most campgrounds near Hiram offer online reservation systems.

    Uneven terrain: Many campsites require leveling equipment. "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," warns Coy about Punderson State Park.

    Tips for camping with families

    Kid-friendly activities: Look for campgrounds with dedicated children's areas. "The playground was covered in caution tape, so it could not be used," notes Ryan K. about a disappointing experience at Country Acres, highlighting the importance of checking amenity status before booking when planning family trips.

    Swimming options: Water recreation varies between parks. At KOA Lake Milton Berlin Lake, "kids absolutely loved swimming in the little lake and sliding/jumping off the inflatables," says Kelly R., though she noted sites lacked privacy.

    Nature experiences: Several parks offer educational programs. "There is a small beach at the campground but a larger one on the other side of the lake. The park office loans games and sports equipment to campers," mentions Alisa G. about West Branch State Park.

    Tips for RVers

    Hookup availability: Full-service sites can be limited. At Woodside Lake Park, "The majority of RVs I say were seasonal with full long-term hookups. There were just a few short-term travelers," notes Duncan G., suggesting advanced booking for visiting RVers requiring full connections.

    Site challenges: Many parks have sloped sites requiring extra equipment. "We were only off 2 inches side to side but front to back we had to lower the front 15 inches. The jack was down as low as it would go and we were still off by 1.5 inches," reports Andrea F. about West Branch State Park.

    Seasonal considerations: For yurt camping near Hiram, Ohio, most facilities offering alternative accommodations operate seasonally. "I'm there every chance I get! There are little hideaway trails everywhere, making for a fun adventure!" shares Jill T. about West Branch State Park, where yurt camping provides comfortable access to these natural features.
