TravelerThis is a nice little campground. There is a lot of space between campers, and the spots are asphalt and somewhat level. It didn’t feel crowded at all. There are plenty of good hiking trails around and it’s fun to go look at the dam. Highly recommend going to the overlook at sunset!
GuideA large campground spread out over multiple loops. Roads and campsites are paved. Our site #416 was spacious and secluded at the end of a dead end road. The bathhouse was a short hike away and in good condition.
ScoutThere are a lot of people here, but even during the day we hardly hear any loud noises coming from any of the other campers. Walking the property (as much as I can with my cane) everyone is so friendly. The grounds are kept very clean. The people from the office actually do garbage pick-up anytime during office hours! Just place your trash bag/ other items to be thrown away at the front of your site and they take it away. They even have recycling, but you have to take that up yourself. They won't just tell you where it is, they will show you. I haven't been to a KOA site in 15 years and the one I went to was not a great experience, but I highly recommend staying here if you're passing through Cincinnati.
RangerThis is a large campground with everything you need. Nice, clean, family friendly campground. Has many private sites backed up to trees. Shower houses has always been clean.
RangerAlways great time here. The upper part has more wooden areas then the lower part. But those spot are close to the lake. They a great playground. They have a big camp store with a putt putt, big lake we’re boating, fishing and kayaking. Multiple shower houses very clean kept up. Nice campground to ride bikes around.
ScoutRestrooms awful (full of spider ) . There is no shade . And too expensive
ScoutWe made reservations to stay here for 3 nights and missed the first night due to damaging weather nearby, (tornadoes in Cincinnati.) On day two when we arrived we found the access driveway to be deeply creviced from washout conditions. We straddled the crevices on the uphill drive but we were unable to make the 90° narrow access to the site, spinning out in the wet grass on multiple tries.
The only option for exit is to back down the driveway, which in our MB Cruiser (8,000+ lbs) was challenging.
The host is extremely communicative and a pleasure to chat with pre-arrival and completely understanding of our dilemma. We chose not to stay the remaining nights.
Had the weather been favorable, access may have been much easier and is definitely passable for car, truck or small van camping. If your turning radius is long, reserve site #1 which may have been passable for us but we did not attempt because that is not what we had reserved, but the host later offered to us. Site #1 is the lower grassy flat with much wider access.
Check with host about condition of driveway and entry before reserving.
ScoutQuiet, pet friendly, great trails
RangerNice shower house with family rooms. Clean campground. Nice campsite. Level sites. Beautiful scenery. Great playground a little from campground. Great hiking trails.

A reviewer noted, "The town also has a covered bridge that I had missed on an earlier camping trip," and mentioned "the Florentine which is one of the oldest inns in Ohio." The park has "interesting trails here from Prairie land and to a forest with former amusement park remains."
Fish in stocked waters: Several camping areas offer fishing opportunities without requiring a license. At Possum Creek Metro Park, campers can "explore the lake, ponds, sustainable farm, and the easy access to the trails." One camper mentioned they "spent time at Argonne Lake but you will notice folks fishing at that lake and the other smaller lakes onsite."
Challenge yourself on backcountry trails: The Twin Valley Trail system provides more strenuous hiking options for experienced hikers. A camper described it as "a great backpacking trail that's challenging and an easy middle meeting place for friends/family from Columbus and Cincinnati" with "beautiful hike through hilly terrain, and great spots of overlooks."
Easy river access: The Jacoby Road Canoe Launch offers "a beautiful spot for tent camping right next to the Little Miami River." Another camper mentioned it was "so low key and didn't have a lot of people" making it ideal for those wanting to avoid crowds. The site includes "picnic tables and fire pit" amenities.
Firewood provisions: Five Rivers Metroparks locations provide a generous firewood bundle with camping reservations. As one camper explained, "each night in the front country camp sites they include a bundle of fire wood. This is not the small sad bundle that you often buy at gas stations or other markets. This is a huge bundle."
Wildlife viewing opportunities: Narrows Reserve attracts nature enthusiasts with its diverse habitats. A reviewer mentioned "tons of traffic with Bird watchers" and described "nice river/creek access to cool off." The meadow camping area provides an open setting with surrounding natural areas to explore.
Reservation requirements: Most tent sites near Miamiville require advance booking through specific park systems. For Greene County parks, "when you make your reservation online you will need to know the car make/model, year, and license plate number. This is done for safety reasons."
Water availability varies: Many campgrounds lack potable water at the campsites themselves. At Constitution County Park, there's no drinking water available on site. Another camper at Twin Creek noted "there is a dearth of potable water stations, so all water needs to be packed in from trailheads with water."
Walk-in distances: Some primitive campsites require significant hiking to reach. At Narrows Reserve, a camper discovered "the primitive campsites were 1.25 miles from the parking lot" but found the trail "very well traveled and very well maintained. It was a super easy hike in for the 1.25 miles."

Multiple picnic tables: Sycamore State Park Campground provides "such a variety of things to do" including "a great disc golf course, really nice trails to hike with challenging hills and nice areas with shelters for grilling and parties." One camper appreciated that at another site "the additional tables made it easy for us to socially distance. When I camp at local state parks and we only have one table it can be tricky to keep coolers, food, and people separated."
Privacy considerations: At Constitution County Park, be aware that "the road is extremely near and you can hear every car driving by." A camper noted it's "way too open for my taste. Anyone can pull in and see your entire setup just from the road or parking lot."
