"This park is one of my favorites in Ohio at this time. Most of the sites are some what private. There are many trails and even a fog park next to the lake."

"I had the furthest lakeside tent from the office. was a beautiful site but the water treatment facility had a loud hum all night, even though they said it was quiet."
"I parked and had to walk about 30 feet to the site which was no big deal and the path was clear. The bathroom was not far away."
$27 - $29 / night

"Ranger Review: Morsel Spork at West Branch State Park
**Campground Review: **
This state park was very welcome after our first two unlucky Ohio state park experiences."
"Here's what's great about this campground situated at an easy drive from major cities like Columbus and Cleveland...its scenic, a fully loaded campground with bathhouses, parks, hiking paths, swimming"
"Our site was lakeside and was probably the largest campsite I ever stayed in."
"We stayed here mid June on their premium lot, super large and right on fishing lake. We brought our canoe and enjoyed fishing and just cruising around."
"If you have the opportunity to check this campground, it is close to many wineries, Geneva on the lake, and Pyamatuning lake."
"But we like that it is so close to Lake Erie with many wine tours and different sites to see (covered bridges and parks)."
"If you're looking to stay off the grid, I stayed in M62, the woods directly behind me, no cell service."
"Many of my friends from Ohio recommended checking out Nelson Ledges for apparent “cliff jumping” and a music festival."
GuideWe needed an overnight with showers. This place is more for long term residents. Not ideal for an overnight. They have golf cart rentals that are more than the overnight site fee. The showers are in desperate need of a cleaning, or a complete knockdown and rebuild. The hose outside felt like it would be more sanitary. She also failed to let us know that to start the shower you needed a quarter. So after we forwent the extra charge of the golf cart and hoofed it over to the showers we wouldn’t have been able to use them anyway! There’s also train tracks close by that blare the horn at all hours and for a longer duration than normal. While checking in I did notice that they have fishing tournaments and other social gathering events. Everyone we ran into was very friendly. If you’re looking for more long term this would be the place for you.
TravelerReally awesome spot. Site was a walk-in site with plenty of room. Fire wood and kindling were at the site waiting for us when we got there. We had a perfect view of the sunset from the site. Sounds from the lake and birds. The site is enough away from the path that you have completely privacy. Really a super cool place to camp.
A couple things… we had two ticks on us relatively soon after getting there but didn’t see any others all night. So be especially careful if you have pets! Also, there was a firefly run that took place in the park starting at 8:45pm. It was a big event with music and tons of people that we could hear from our site…so just check the event schedule before you book if that’s going to bug you!
Would 100% book again!
LegendNo time for pictures to much family time. Large beautiful park with lots of amenities. Boat ramp, disc golf, trails, kayak rentals, archery range and more.
TravelerSite is about a quarter mile from the parking lot so pack light, bring a wagon, and/or be ready for a work out.
Tent pad is raised so even though it rained and the water streamed through the middle of camp, tent was fine.
In near a slope which leads to the river, which the kids loved but younger kids might find dangerous.
Toilet is by the parking lot. No running water. Dollar general is 3 min away. No road noise unless someone is reving their engine in the parking lot but you will hear trail hikers. Bring your own wood. TONS OF BIRDS you will hear them all day long and see all sorts of different kinds. Really pretty and relaxing scenery overall. Probably best for solo campers.
TravelerI e been a seasonal camper at Kennisee for 5 years. It’s a great place with a lot of events and entertainment for family’s. Multiple fishing ponds , Friday night bingo , bands , fishing tournament for kids, duck race, Christmas in July and many other activities. Many amenities and very clean bathrooms and showers.
TravelerI stayed here with some friends for one night and I would love to go back. Be prepared - you park near the front of the campgrounds to check in, and then you are provided wagons to carry your gear to your site. It is kind of a fun adventure. We booked last minute and got the site at the very back of the campsite, which happened to be up a hill. It took some work but we got all of our gear up with the wagon. Our site was beautiful and private. We also had a lot of space. We couldn't really see or hear any other campers.
Bathrooms are port-a-johns back near where the car was parked. So it can be a little bit of a hike if you have a far campsite.
If you plan on having a fire, you have to purchase wood from them because you can't bring your own (it's a tree farm). One thing I loved is that they will bring the wood up to your campsite for you. You are able to buy some from them at other times (they have a sign on how to do so at each site) and they will drive it up again.
I felt safe here and would definitely go back, next time for multiple nights.
ScoutThe campsite was spacious, the vibe is peaceful, and everything is well-kept. The staff is friendly, and the amenities are clean, which is always a plus. Definitely coming back!
GuideFirst time at this park I can see why it's always booked up. It seems like the sites are good sized but some are on slopes even the pads so make sure to bring stuff to level. Bathrooms were clean separate showers verizon works well here.
