Bull Prairie Campground is a local gem; a beautiful, woodsy place to enjoy a vacation, host a family reunion or social event, and to enjoy multiple recreational pursuits. This moderate-sized campground is located adjacent to 28-acre Bull Prairie Lake, which is stocked annually with trout. An accessible, family-friendly paved trail along the lake is ideal for morning jogs, bicycle rides, picnicking, and shore or dockside fishing. The lake has a boat ramp, dock and trailer parking area, but only non-motorized boating is allowed. Nearby trails connect the campground and lake with the Morrow County OHV Park, 8 miles away. Note: ATVs are only allowed at the dump station and in the north part of the campground (sites 25-28).____ While this campground offers potable water, there is no garbage service so please pack out all garbage and dispose of it at home.__
An accessible, family-friendly paved trail around the lake is designed for people who enjoy morning jogs, bicycle rides, picnicking, and shoreline or dock fishing. Non-motorized boating is allowed with a boat ramp, dock, and parking area for trailers. Within the campground adjacent to the lake is a large day-use picnic area with accessible facilities. Besides beautiful scenery, the lake offers many opportunities for wildlife viewing and photography. Hunting activities can be undertaken nearby, but not within this recreation site.

Coalmine Hill is just off the paved Blue Mountain Scenic Byway (also called the Western Route). The Campground serves as access to the Bald Mountain, Hells Half Acre, and Willow Creek trails, offering a 7.5 mile-long loop experience for hikers and equestrians. Once inside the campground's large parking area, there is an information board on the northeast side. Past the information board runs the Bald Mountain hiking trail leading to Gibson Cave, which is 1.25 miles from the parking lot. The cave is really a shallow overhanging shelter with an interpretive sign describing its history.Once you've reached Gibson's cave, continue up the Bald Mountain trail until you reach a nice view point. The mountain's view point overlooks the drainages in between Coalmine Hill (to the northwest) and Little Bald Mountain (to the east), providing fantastic views and tranquility. About five miles southwest of the campground is Penland Lake; follow the Blue mountain Scenic Byway and Forest Service Road 21 and 2103, until you've reached Penland Lake where there are fishing and nonelectric boating opportunities. . Coalmine Hill Campground provides one larger, separate site near the entrance and the remaining five sites are located along the tree edges of the large parking area. There is one vault toilet and a travel access information board. This campground was constructed to serve double-duty as a snow park in the winter. There is no potable water or garbage service, so please pack out all garbage and dispose of it at home.
Fall asleep to the sound of crickets and frogs chirping and croaking and wake up to Blue Gill and Rainbow Trout jumping at the bit.

Penland is popular on summer weekends and offers access to fishing, boating, and swimming opportunities.

We just needed a place to park that was on our route home. They were very friendly and set us up with a primitive site (which is what we wanted). It is noisy with the bridge and Hwy right there beside the park. Bathrooms and showers were excellent.
Traveler
Beautiful forested campsite with clean flush toilets next to a creek.
Scout
A little more money for the view, patio, grill and fireplace, but well worth it! Not too hot even at 95! Cool nights and plenty of sky.
Guide
Arrived afternoon on Labor Day to find an empty campground. Sites are large, but not very level for an RV.
Scout
Well cared for campgrounds. Quiet, river access.
Traveler
Good parking area for us, not many here or could get a little tight depending on how people park. It does not have shade so a little warm in August! Be self contained 😀
GuideI camped here during the summer season of 2023. When I pulled into the campground it was just me and the camp hosts. They gave me the pick of what site I wanted. I swooped on one next to the river. The campground was beautiful and sites were good distances from each other. There are bathrooms and areas to top off your water. I choose this campground due to driving the 395 as my choice of route to explore. I would 100% recommend this campsite again.
ScoutAndy at the front desk was very helpful checking me in. She and her associate assisted with me finding the best spot with some shade and facing the mountains. Yes, there are a lot of units here. And, it’s still a great spot for camping. They are all 50 amp and include a converter, if you don’t have 50amp. Leveled and spacious for vehicles.
Legend
Large well kept park. Casino, pool and restaurants.
GuideThis is more like a large parking lot for day tourists with a few spots right by river side. There are no designated camping spots. There is one vault toilet which is clean. There are mostly fisherman or boaters staying here. No shade. For a overnight stay fine but I would not stay longer.
ScoutUnder new ownership and they no longer allow overnight camping only long-term rental
RangerThis RV park is so beautiful. I wish I could spend more time here. Lots of boaters and fishermen. Lots or families and friends playing games, bbqing and having fun. Immaculate bathrooms/showers. Lawn like carpet. Wi-Fi, FHU, Fire pits. Wood available for purchase.
GuideFacilities are clean.. more showers than toilets.. each space has grass and a pad to park on.. no gravel roads..beautiful views of the valleyso
RangerStayed two nights and loved it. Lots of boaters using the boat ramp and parking area. Lots of disbursed camping areas and short walking paths. Lots of birds also.
TravelerWould be five stars but train is very loud. Still, has all you could ever need. Boardman is nearby and there is a laundromat, a food truck court that’s open for breakfast, water fill station, bathrooms at campsite, and ample gas stations/other resources. Plus, you can wake up right on the water for free!
Traveler
Pretty amazing State Park, lucked on weather. Trails on either side are both nice cruisers on bikes - green runs, but can make them more work, and the views are sublime.  The park amenities were top-notch, including a nice windbreak. Stars at night were spectacular.
TravelerThis is a clean and friendly park. Water was potable. Price is right for hookups.
TravelerAs a traveling family we enjoyed this park. Easy and simple access to all hookups. Mostly quiet (except for simi trucks parking for the night on the road near park running their equipment all night.) Staff was professional and kind. Not close to stores for any extras. Casino is nice.
Guide
This place is nice for it's location-far away from pretty much everything. It's quiet and shaded and has a few good amenities like bathrooms, showers, park, and fishing pond. A great place to relax.
GuidePark is nice and adequate for a quick stop over. Sites have sewer. There is a shuttle that will pick you up and take you to the casino. Price was reasonable and mid range.
ScoutPulled in and noticed the sites were smaller and there were a lot of full time people there, regardless of that everyone was nice, respectful and the facilities are kept very well. I was very impressed with the personal bathroom/shower rooms. It was just a little get away for us wanting to relax and explore the Pendleton area and this was a terrific place with the easy access from the freeway. Staff were fantastic.
TravelerPicked campground for an overnight stay. Right on the River! Little bit of freeway noise, but otherwise very quiet and peaceful. Level gravel sites with grassy area between sites. Friendly and helpful staff. Clean campground.
GuideWill do for a one nighter if your in the area and have no other choice. It is expensive $20! When everywhere else is much less (BLM & Forest.
Hard to find a level spot for rv's. Clean pit toilets and plenty of trash receptacles. Campground was clean and no one else at it Mid May.
Sites have tables, fire pits and found potable water spigot.
TravelerWe’ve enjoyed our stay at Plymouth. Not all sites are full hook up anymore. Nice open space the kids loved playing in and a playground. We had a few windy days, and some perfect spring days. Quiet and peaceful.
TravelerCampground was very quite. We had a good spot that was facing a big empty green field and no one camped next to us so it was pretty private. We had a grassy area next to our RV but it wasn’t level. Bathrooms weren’t clean and the latches and both of the bathrooms doors were broken so you couldn’t full close them. Power lines everywhere in view, beach was empty but probably gets busy in the summer.
Scout
Big open dry camping lot. Easy area to spend a night.
GuideSeems more like an rv park than a campground. Someone let there dog pee at our site as we were pulling up and it backs up to apartments. Never again.
