Bill and Marge Davis had the dream of creating a place where families like their own could spend time together in the outdoors.  They dreamed of the giggles of small children as they jumped into a pool and the peacefulness of taking a nap underneath a big shade tree.  They visualized small boys with fishing poles over their shoulders walking to the lake.  They could even smell fried potatoes, scrambled eggs, and bacon cooking on a Coleman stove. In 1966 with 5 kids and a hole in their pockets, Bill and Marge invested all they had and purchased land in Galena, Ohio. The dream was shared with their children, and year after year, improvement after improvement, Berkshire Lake Campground grew to what it is today.  What began as open land a few rustic campsites is now 81 acres of primarily wooded area with over 300 full-service lots. 

We have 50 beautiful daily camping sites, all full-hookup, with both 30 and 50 amp service. These sites are available to rent on a daily, weekly, or even monthly basis. Centrally located, they are within a short distance from the store, pool, activity center, and facilities!

Converse Woods

Scioto Grove Metro Park is a 620-acre park along the Scioto River with mature forests and scenic bluffs overlooking the river. It features more than seven miles of trails, two picnic areas with shelters, tables and grills, a kids play area and several overlook decks. The park is located on a scenic bend of the Scioto River and is a great destination for canoeists, kayakers, anglers and people wanting to see waterfowl and other wildlife. Dogs on leashes are welcome throughout the park, which also features a sledding hill.

Thanks to a generous donation of 193 acres of land from the City of Grove City, funds from the State of Ohio Clean Ohio Program, and passage of a property tax levy by Franklin County voters, Metro Parks has developed this park for people of all ages and abilities to experience nature and enjoy quality time with family and friends. Additional support came from outdoor retailer REI to construct a backpack trail along the river for those just getting into the sport, as well as those seasoned backpackers who want a quick overnight without having to journey several hours.
