Best RV Parks & Resorts near Laurelville, OH

The Hocking Hills region surrounding Laurelville, Ohio features several RV parks with varying amenities and hookup options. Palmerosa Horse & Hike Campground, located directly in Laurelville, offers 44 RV sites with electric hookups and 30-amp service, along with water hookups and a sanitary dump station. Just 15 miles east in Logan, Hocking River RV Park provides pull-through spots with 30-amp electric service and operates from April through October, though one reviewer noted "pull through spots require a little bit of maneuvering with big rig (43' fifth wheel)." Hilltop Resorts and Campgrounds in Logan accommodates larger motorhomes with 130 sites featuring both 30-amp and 50-amp service options, full hookups including sewer connections, and has earned a perfect 5-star rating. Hocking Hills State Park Campground, a popular destination for RV travelers, includes big-rig friendly sites with 50-amp electrical service and full hookup options.

Seasonal availability varies significantly among RV parks in the area, with some like Walnut Creek Campground and Resort operating year-round while others close during winter months. Cell service can be unreliable throughout the region, particularly at Hocking Hills State Park where visitors report "poor cell service" with "fleeting one bar" connections. Most campgrounds accommodate pets and provide standard amenities like shower facilities and trash disposal. Navigation to some RV sites requires careful planning, as narrow roads and sloped pads can present challenges for larger rigs. One traveler cautioned about Hocking Hills State Park: "The site was angled so we had to turn around before we could back in/park - our 5th wheel is 43' and it was tight even with all spots not full." Advance reservations are strongly recommended, especially during peak fall foliage season when RV campgrounds throughout the area fill quickly.

    Hocking River RV Park

    Scenic, easy in/out and on the river

    Stayed here 4 nights, pull through spots require a little bit of maneuvering with big rig (43’ fifth wheel). There was some mud where camper wheels were situated in the spot (needs material). Fire rings are not near RV but behind across the road on the river. Bath house is just ok - not great, not gross. Close proximity to lots of hiking but Hocking Hills itself has become so crowded… don’t come if you want to get away from people.

    Hocking Hills KOA Holiday

    Great first time KOA experience

    We have never stayed at a KOA before and were very happy with this campground. The staff were friendly and professional, the sites were clean, and there were a wide variety of sites to choose from. From primitive tent sites tucked back in the woods to large RV sites with water/sewer/electric/cable hookups. We are first-time owners of a 29 ft Fifth Wheel and got a pull-through site. It offered little in the way of privacy, which was the only negative about the whole experience. Our site included a fire ring and a picnic table, along with all the hook ups. The night we arrived we were too tired to cook so ordered a pizza from the front office and they delivered it to our site. They also deliver wood directly to you. They escort you directly to your site so you don't get lost or go down a one-way road the wrong way. There was a nice little pool, but it wasn't open for the season yet. The shower houses were immaculate. The front office includes a little gift shop, ice cream, and pizza. This campground was also located close (within a few miles) to all the main hiking trails,and about 12 miles from Logan. The little road going up to the campground is VERY bumpy. It's not the campground road, it belongs to the Township, so its completely out of their ability to make improvements. This was only our second time out in our fifth wheel camper so it was a little scary, but we just drove slow and our truck handled it just fine. We will definitely be back to this wonderful campground as we love Hocking Hills.

    Tree Haven Campground

    Great first RV experience.

    Great little campground. My wife and I spent a month out there in a fifth wheel to see if we like the lifestyle. Very nice pool(clean). Great walking trail back through the woods. Pet friendly and the bathrooms were very nice. Well....I guess we did! We are now in a search for a Diesel pusher to go full-time!

    Hocking Hills State Park Campground

    Great Ohio State Park Campground

    Amazing trails walkable right from the campground. Old mans cave, upper & lower falls. Bathroom was clean. Showers were ok. My site 108 was not deep, but was wide. Great for my 5X9 travel trailer, but probably not good for a big rig. Shaded & right near the shower house was a plus.

    Big Sycamore Family Campground

    Great small family campground

    We enjoyed our 3 night stay here! Some sites are full hook up, some sites are electric and water, and some are primitive. The dump station is easily accessible if you need it. 5 acres with everything we could need. The owners were amazing. Very friendly and helpful! They had only owned the campground for 2 weeks and were in the process of making several improvements. The shower house and bathrooms were clean and adequate. There is a small playground for kids. It is pet friendly. There is a nice sized pool for summer (we camped in October so it was closed for the season). Located within a short drive (about 10 miles/15 minutes) from everything Hocking Hills has to offer. There is even a restaurant close by that will deliver to your campsite. Kroger and Walmart are within 5-7 minutes driving for supplies. The only downside is that it is close to a highway so at night you can hear the traffic. This didn’t bother us so much but might be a problem for some.

    Sun Valley Campground

    Beautiful campground with sites for RVs and tents.

    This campground has a lot to offer with electric and water hookups for RVs with back-in and pull through sites. They have a dump station as well as an onsite bathroom/shower house. The owners are very friendly. I highly recommend.


Guide to Laurelville

RV campgrounds in the Laurelville, Ohio area offer diverse camping options within the scenic Hocking Hills region at elevations ranging from 850 to 1,100 feet. The area experiences four distinct seasons with summer temperatures averaging 75-85°F and spring/fall ranging from 50-70°F. Most RV parks in the region require reservations during peak seasons, with many sites offering electric hookups and varying levels of seclusion.

What to do

Kayaking on the Hocking River: Campers at Hocking River RV Park enjoy direct river access. "This small and cost effective campground is so awesome! The river is small and is perfect to have a fire right next to. We also just went up the highway a little to a rafting rental place called murrys landing to raft down the river," shares Aysia C.

Explore hiking trails: The region offers numerous hiking paths for all skill levels. At Palmerosa Horse & Hike Campground, visitors appreciate unique trail access. "The horseback riding is awesome, airplane rock has a view second to none. the box canyon with waterfall is gorgeous but seriously it was fantastic," notes Timothy M.

Swimming options: Many campgrounds offer water recreation beyond just hiking. At Jackson Lake Park, "The little lake was so much fun. My children were upset we had to leave early due to the storm coming in," reports Samantha H.

What campers like

Private bathroom facilities: Campers consistently praise clean, private facilities. At Hilltop Resorts and Campgrounds, "The bathroom/shower facility are private individual units and are the cleanest we have ever seen!" according to Tiffani C.

Family activities: Many campgrounds offer recreational options beyond hiking. "There is a nice sized sand ground play set with swings and 2 slides, an air pillow (blob) putt putt, a trail to the lake, a dog run, poop pickup stations, an A/C'd game room and very pleasant staff," Mitchell C. shares about Hilltop Resorts.

Peaceful settings: Walnut Creek Campground and Resort provides a tranquil atmosphere, with Mark B. noting it's a "Friendly family owned campground with nice quiet environment. Nice scenic drive to campground only 7 miles off of Hwy 35."

What you should know

Campsite spacing varies significantly: Some sites offer privacy while others are tightly packed. At Hocking Hills State Park Campground, one camper notes, "The sites were quiet and clean! Make sure to pay attention to 'walk-in' sites. It's more like 'hike a half mile with your gear' sites!"

Bathhouse quality fluctuates: Facilities range from outdated to recently renovated. At Palmerosa Campground, "The new shower house at the office is great! You have your own shower, toilet and vanity in a locked room!" according to Chad B.

Water access can be challenging: Despite riverside locations, some spots have limited water entry points. At Hocking River RV Park, Joseph E. notes, "Fishing is ok but the banks of the river are high. Also the water is after you pull in so you have to pull in fill up and go back around to your spot."

Tips for camping with families

Look for kid-specific amenities: Choose campgrounds with dedicated children's activities. "Super spacious sites and very peaceful. This is a top-notch camping resort," says Victor R. about Hilltop Resorts.

Consider proximity to bathrooms: When camping with children, bathroom location matters. Kate W. shares about Hocking Hills State Park: "Portable water is available at the parking lot only. The walk-in campground does NOT connect by trail to any other trails. A car is fairly necessary."

Check for swimming options: Jackson Lake Park offers water recreation that kids enjoy. "Has fishing, kayaking, golf cart trails, volleyball set up, basketball court, swimming pool and super nice cabins," reports Kelly W. about Walnut Creek Campground.

Tips from RVers

Site angles and approach matters: Some campgrounds require careful maneuvering. When selecting an RV site, consider accessibility. Alton RV Park offers "small, maybe 35 sites, clean well maintained campground" with staff who "will guide you to your spot and likely oversee your parking," according to Sharon J.

Water filling logistics: Plan for water access points. At Jackson Lake Park, Chris C. notes "the water hook ups were accessible through a hole/pipe and we had to 'fish' down to connect our hose."

Seasonal considerations: Year-round availability varies, with most RV parks in the Laurelville region open from spring through fall. At Hocking River RV Park, Tamara W. advises that "pull through spots require a little bit of maneuvering with big rig" and that there "was some mud where camper wheels were situated in the spot (needs material)."
