Campers reference The Dyrt for top tips on camping near Solon, Ohio. The pet-friendly sites maintain a family-focused environment with amenities like swimming pools, playgrounds, and fishing opportunities, though raccoons and skunks frequently visit campsites along the water/electric back-in section—proper food storage is essential when camping with dogs.
Cuyahoga Valley National Park trails provide excellent dog walking opportunities just minutes from these pet-friendly campgrounds. The West Woods offers tent camping with pets allowed, though sites require a quarter-mile walk from the parking lot, making wagons useful for transporting pet supplies. Bathroom facilities at most campgrounds remain clean and well-maintained, with some parks offering fenced dog areas for off-leash play. Wildlife encounters, particularly with raccoons bold enough to approach within four feet even without food present, require extra vigilance when camping with pets. Local stores including Walmart and Dollar General provide convenient access to pet supplies within 3-5 minutes of most campgrounds, ensuring campers won't run short on dog food or other necessities during their stay.

LegendStayed on a premium patio site and loved it. The campground and staff were awesome. Level site, great hook ups, awesome WiFi and cable. Clean facilities, 3 lakes (one with a fishing pier), 2 dog parks, and super friendly staff. 30 min to Cleveland. Walmart, gas stations and restaurants within 5 miles. Just off Ohio Turnpike, but can't hear it. Definitely recommend this KOA

ScoutStayed here to be close to the NP and it is a great little campground for a reasonable price. Big dog park with pond on the other side of the park. Sites are uneven but my favorite part was the wooded path.
GuideRight nearby there is a dog park called Bow Wow Beach:-) our dog absolutely loved it! We biked from our site!
LegendWe were in the area exploring Cuyahoga Nat Park and found Silver Springs. It was 18$ for a site with electric hook ups (15$ if you are a Stow resident) No option for no paying less for no hook-up camping. Water close by and port a pottie style bathrooms close to the camp sites. There are flush toilets a walk away but we didn’t use them. Sites are big and grassy but not super level. Wasn’t a big issue for us but could be for a bigger camper. The campground was calm and quiet. Lots of trails close by. Dog park down the street as well as a play ground and fishing pond! We had a great few days staying here and will be back if we are even passing thru Stow again.
LegendWe really loved this little spot! It appealed to all of what we were looking for, our camp host was awesome. There was even a dog park within walking distance- a lot of trails to explore too. No showers and the Porto potties weren't the cleanest... But they were functional. Very hospitable locals- we were invited to a square dancing party that evening in the park! Very comfy and safe.
ScoutThe bathrooms are portojons and there are no showers, however there is THE best dog park I have ever seen in this area. So my dogs loved this campground more than me and that was worth it. It was dark enough to see a space station cross the sky at night. The camping spaces are rather close, but so many people want to camp there, because of its proximity to everything amazing.
TravelerNice park, two fenced dog parks. Bathrooms were clean.
ScoutAlot of campground unfinished, poor wifi, no dog park
Camping options near Solon, Ohio range from basic tent sites to full-service RV resorts with elevations between 1,000-1,200 feet above sea level. The region experiences four distinct seasons with summer temperatures averaging 70-85°F, ideal for water recreation, while spring and fall camping requires layers for temperature fluctuations. Most campgrounds in this area lie within 30 minutes of Cuyahoga Valley National Park, offering varied terrain from wooded sites to lakeside camping.
Hike through unique terrain: Nelson-Kennedy Ledges Quarry Park features distinctive rock formations for explorers of all skill levels. "This place is a great place to take your kids and pets. There are numerous trails for different skill levels and tons of caves to explore. Also the view at the end is fantastic and is a great place to relax and read for the day," writes Anthony S.
Fish at local reservoirs: Countryside Campground provides access to Mogadore Reservoir with shoreline fishing opportunities. "There is a nice path through the woods down to the reservoir, where you can fish and kayak," notes Kathryn P. The campground sits less than a quarter mile from the water.
Visit the Nature Center: The West Woods offers educational opportunities beyond just camping. "Great small park with a hiking trail that takes about an hour or hour and a half, it has a waterfall, small tiny cave, bridges and stairs. Really well maintained paths, tiny gravel for less mud," says Kayla S.
Private tent sites: Heritage Farms offers uniquely situated camping spots. "Sites are spread apart nicely. Each one has a picnic table and fire ring. Grassy spots that are fairly level and mowed. Came with firewood and a little kindling too," says Josh W. This Christmas tree farm camping area requires a short walk from parking but provides distinctive secluded sites.
Water recreation: Roundup Lake RV Resort features a sizable lake with multiple recreation options. "Campsites surround a sizable lake which boasts inflatables as well as enough room for self-propelled water crafts (i.e. kayaks, paddleboards, etc)," notes Brandy Q., who adds that the 5 mph rule is strictly enforced for safety.
Affordable camping near attractions: Silver Springs Campground offers budget-friendly camping with proximity to regional attractions. "We stayed overnight and arrived after a big storm passed through. Our grassy site had some muddy spots, but the site was big enough that we were able to avoid the mud... This would be a great home base for biking and/or exploring the Cuyahoga Valley NP," shares Karla J.B.
Site conditions vary significantly: Punderson State Park Campground has diverse site options but some challenging terrain. "The sites greatly vary on size and flatness so make sure you look at the pictures of the site before you book some are basically the parking pad and a fire ring, some are big and flat some are on a incline," advises Joe I.
Water quality issues: Some campgrounds have water challenges to consider. At Woodside Lake Park, a visitor noted: "I left after 2 months due to iron & sulfur laden well water that is provided in at least half the park. I spent hundreds of dollars trying to filter and clean up the water to no avail." Consider bringing drinking water if staying at campgrounds with well water systems.
