Just outside McConnelsville, this American Electric Power campground operated on reclaimed strip-mined land before closing permanently. The basic sites featured minimal amenities, with some including fire rings and picnic tables while others offered no furnishings. Cell service reached the area, and campers reported wildlife sightings on the restored terrain.
AEP developed the property as part of their land reclamation efforts, creating recreational access on donated acreage that also housed tree farms and hydro facilities. The campground required advance permits and attracted outdoor enthusiasts comfortable with primitive conditions. For current options, campsites near McConnelsville include several AEP properties and Jesse Owens State Park locations within a few miles.
