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.
ScoutRight close to Columbus this campground is a staple for locals trying to just get away for the weekend. There is an amphitheater, a camper’s beach, nature center, and more all within the campground. Alum creek state park is a larger facility surrounding the campground with a public beach, walking paths, mountain bike trails, archery range, hunting areas, boat marina and more. The public beach is rather gravelly but has nice shower houses and grills available. We are attending during fall fest where they put on many activities for the campers and it is a lot of fun. You have to reserve 6 months in advance to be able to get in on fall fest unless there is a last minute cancellation. Our site is relatively flat parking, we didn’t need to level the rig. It did rain the morning we got here and the area around the fire pit was a bit muddy. The view out the back of this camp site is nice and wooded, you’re not looking at your neighbors out the back window. The sides you can definitely see each other but it’s still wooded and secluded enough between the sites here.
RangerIt has two restaurants lotta gas pumps. Nice store clean bathrooms are good.
RangerWe managed to get several sites near each other for 6-7 families and we had a blast. Near bathrooms, quiet, and within walking distance of the kayak launch.
RangerGreat campground. My favorite is each loop has their own shower house! Nice playgrounds for kids. Nice private sites. Lots of woods and trails. Good lake for boating fishing and kayaking. Park is very clean and well maintained. They have a kids fishing pond! It’s also great for biking.
GuideWe used Site 53, which is a pull thru. The site was spacious and level. The fire pit location is across a tiny stream; we enjoyed a campfire in the woods! There were no loud folks. The loudest thing we heard was the occasional bark of a dog (which we didn't mind).
The restrooms were new and extremely clean. The staff at the camp store was friendly.
There are plenty of places and opportunities to enjoy Pine Lake: you can sit on a bench or rent a canoe.
We'd love to return to Tar Hollow when the fall foliage is beautiful.
RangerThis campground is located near major roads and within a quick trip to Hocking Hills State Park. Tents spots are located near the lake and provide pine tree shaded cover. Bathrooms are private and very clean!

Fishing opportunities: At Sky Lake Resort and Fishing, campers enjoy multiple connected lakes with excellent fishing access. "We loved our time at Sky Lake! It's a beautiful property, well maintained, and easy to make a reservation," notes reviewer Brittany S.
River activities: Hocking River RV Park offers direct river access for kayaking and canoeing. "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.
Family recreation: Many campgrounds offer activities beyond traditional camping. "Fun location just off the highway. Perfect for a family, has swimming pool, putt putt, and other child friendly activities... also has small fishing pond," reports Buck B. about Tomorrow's Stars RV Resort.
Clean, well-maintained facilities: Campgrounds near Mount Sterling often receive praise for upkeep. "The bathrooms were nice though. No playground which made camping with kids very uneventful for them," notes one camper about Hocking River RV Park.
Spacious sites: Thousand Trails Wilmington offers roomier camping spots. "This is a very quiet campground with spacious sites on Loop C. The pool is large and heated," says Susan B. The campground is approximately 30 miles from Mount Sterling.
Quiet atmosphere: Many campers appreciate the peaceful settings. "This was the first stay of my full time RV life. I'm glad I started here. It's nice and quiet. People seem to be very friendly," writes Emerson F. about their stay at Thousand Trails Wilmington.
Reservation systems vary: Some rv campgrounds near Mount Sterling require advance planning. Jackson Lake Park offers online reservations but campers note, "Easy access to sites. Staff could take a lesson in hospitality and giving directions on park."
Hookup quality differences: Water and electric connections can vary significantly between parks. "The sites are very close together - one family moved in late at night practically on top of me - their tent was literally 4 feet from my picnic table," explains one camper about certain sites at Hocking River RV Park.
Seasonal operation: Several campgrounds in the region close during winter months. Thousand Trails Wilmington operates from April 17 to October 30, while some other RV campgrounds near Mount Sterling maintain year-round operations with reduced services during colder months.

State park proximity: For additional recreation opportunities, "We like the location to the State park nearby for hiking trails and mountain biking trails (Ceasar Creek)," says Melissa T. about Thousand Trails Wilmington, highlighting options beyond campground boundaries.
Level sites: RV campers emphasize the importance of site leveling. At Deer Creek Camping Resort, "Our site was HUGE! The pad was very level, so setting up the TT was quick and easy," according to Kim H.
Water fill considerations: Some campgrounds have limited central water fill stations. "The only negative was the lack of a central fresh water fill station. Spigots are dispersed throughout the camp, which means sitting in the road for as long as it takes to fill your tank," notes a reviewer at Deer Creek Camping Resort.
Self-check-in availability: Some Mount Sterling area RV parks offer convenient arrival procedures. "The one thing I really liked was that the entire reservation and check-in process was online, you didn't have to check in at the office, just put your info into the website and you were all set, which is really nice after a long drive," shares Gregory L. about Sky Lake Resort.
