    Lake Erie State Park

    Nice stop on way to Niagara Falls

    Beautiful State Park with friendly staff and campers. Windy, clean bathrooms w showers, flat sites. Sites on lake are not open - but sites across have good views as well. Lots more than just the campground

    Erie KOA

    Fun time for a family

    Fun little campground with friendly staff and wide open spaces. Clean bathrooms, great pool, fun little game room. The playground got 2 thumbs up from a 4 and 6 year old. There was a movie night every night. Close to stores (15 mins). The KOA is close to Presque isle and the amusement park, which is a fantastic place for kids. Sites were a good size and comfortable to be around.

    One Nighter

       Although this is a KOA Holiday, we used it as a KOA Journey on our way to the Catskills. Not too far from the Interstate & there was no highway noise at the campground. 

      We arrived right at 5pm, which is when they close up, but Victoria went above & beyond & took us right to our site. Good thing, since we were at the back of a confusing layout.

     There are sites in this section that have a partial view of the lake, but they looked like seasonal sites. All the sites looked well cared for. We had a pull through on Chestnut Drive.  Y1

    If you have kids, most of the activities they would be interested in are at the front entrance. If you don't have a golf cart, you may have to drive to the front for the pool, mini golf, basketball court & jumping pillow. 

    It doesn't look like they have many cabins. 

     There's another playground in the back that was getting used. There was supposed to be a splash pad, but I didn't see an evidence of that. 

    The bathroom/shower house are duel toilet/showers. Not my favorite, but we didn't have any trouble getting in. 

    We used the back exit on our way out, which was convenient. At least we didn't have to go back to the front entrance!

     BTW, Victoria is a treasure! She's friendly & goes above& beyond for customer service. We really appreciated the time she took with us.

    Back again 2024 July 4

    Again it is a nice large place with activities all day for all ages. Pool was great due to temps being in the 90s. Not all sites are full hookup and 50 Amp. The street lights suck as they fully illuminated our sites. Fireworks were OK.

    Pretty nice

    We stayed here with our Coast to Coast membership, so it was good for that price. The main restroom/shower house is attached to the office. There are 5 restrooms with flush toilet and hand sanitizer scattered around the park. Most all of the sites are back in. We stayed at a site that shares a pole with water and electric hookups with 3 others. The first time I connected to the internet at our site, it connected right away with good quality. For about 30 seconds. I never got internet at our site again. It is good in the game room by the office, but there isn't anywhere with air conditioning to sit. AT&T has one bar of signal. Many problems getting internet with that. We did enjoy the indoor pool. Until it became crowded with kids. So, we went to the swimming pond. It was quite nice. We took out a paddle boat. They offer paddle boats, canoes, and rowboat to use for free. The one we had wouldn't steer. We went in circles to the right in the middle of the lake for 45 minutes before we got it back to the dock. I think it needs more trees.

    Pymatuning Jamestown

    Quiet park. Some road noise from campsite J100 but US route 322 is lightly traveled. Typical tent site with fire ring and picnic table. Across street from bath house with shower and toilet which was clean.

    Weekend Getaway

    We will definitely be back. The sites are very level, so setup is a breeze. There's plenty of spots to go fishing and hang out by the lake, plus different things to do in the area.

    Follys End Campground

    Nice spot

    Sites aren't on top of each other. Best sites are along the river and store has lots of fishing supplies. Wifi was too weak at my tent site and Verizon service was mostly unavailable. The site has a tire rim fire pit and picnic table with electric and water. Gravel pad where I parked was nearly level. Bathroom was cleaned the day I used shower and hot water was good. Prices for the site was $31/night and this was early season. I'm in a pickup with rooftop tent.

    Sparrow Pond Family Campground

    Great campground near Lake Erie

    We stayed at Sparrow Pond Family Campground for a special long-weekend to view the Total Solar Eclipse. Their normal season doesn’t open until later in April, but they opened for 5-days for people like us who wanted a good spot for the eclipse. Since the normal season hadn’t yet opened, not all amenities/facilities were open but they put on a lot of activities to make the stay fun. 

    THINGS I LIKED: 

    • Easy access to Lake Erie and Presque Isle State Park 

    • Clean and well-maintained property with lots of activities 

    • All of the RVs appeared well-maintained without trashy-looking seasonal sites 

    • Nice campground with friendly camping neighbors 

    • Friendly and responsive staff interactions 

    THINGS I DIDN’T LIKE SO MUCH: 

    • The site was nice and in a great location with a view of the pond, but wasn’t level 

    WOULD WE COME BACK? 

    Absolutely, this is a nice place with plenty of things to see and do in the area 

    HOW I CAME UP WITH MY STAR RATING:

    ★★★★★ everything was perfect with no room for improvement

    ★★★★ this is a great place with one or more minor flaws

    ★★★ average in all ways— not great, not horrible

    ★★ major issues or poorly maintained, we wouldn’t likely come back

    ★ a terrible place in my opinion and I’d never return

    Jamestown - Pymatuning State Park

    Labor Day weekend

    Campground was clean and well maintained. Only issue we ran into was that the fire pit was not cleaned out after the last folks. It wasn’t a huge deal but there we had quite a bit of debris and wet ash to deal with. The wash houses scattered throughout are new and very clean. The one across from our site had 4 private bathrooms with a toilet and shower. Very well patrolled and tons of stuff to do within biking/running/driving distance.

    Awesome experience

    My husband and I stayed in Teepee number 3. He has never camped before except being a marine. We love it. The ladies at the front desk answered all our questions and gave us suggestions on places to go. It was Halloween themed weekend and the extent of planning they do for the patrons was outstanding. Only issue we had was the water pressure in the showers were horrible

    Underated Park and Campground

    We stayed in site C6 one of the reservable sites. Every site has plenty of room. Campground overall is quiet. And most if not all of the full hookups are pull throughs. But seems many of the tent sites are on grades. Couple beautiful walk in tent sites right on the water. Plenty of nice hiking trails. Great beach for kids.

    Small and Peaceful with a beautiful view

    Nice and spacious sites.  Great launch area from the campground to set out on your kayak or paddle board.  Walkable to the marina and beach area.  Beach area was small but clean and had new sand.  The bathhouse was clean and maintained.  There was a small swing area in the campground but you kind of had to walk through some sites to get to it.  No hiking from the campground.  We did ride our bikes out of the grounds and through town a little to the Pymatuning Spillway trail.  The trail head was a bit of a challenge to find.  We entered behind the church in town.  The trail was great and we stopped at the spillway to feed the carp.  On our return we found out that the trail was finished a little further down from where we entered and we rode to the end over a bridge and back into town.   We had Verizon cell service at the campground.

    Largest sites I've ever seen!

    Stayed here two separate times summer of '23. Each time we look loved it! The sites are HUGE, plenty of space for our 30' TT, truck, and screen house. Nice large parks, mini-golf, and jump pad. Only complaint I had was the pool was undersized for the number of sites they have and it is in need of some repairs to fix tiles that are falling off. Some great views of the lake and surrounding area. Night sky was perfect for viewing stars!

    Helpful staff saved trip

    This was our second trip to the Erie KOA for a soccer tournament in Edinboro. Our trip was almost ruined when our popup cable system failed and we could not use our camper. The staff was able to move us to a cabin and prevent us having to find other accommodations. They even stopped over to check on us after we swapped sites.

    The kids enjoyed fishing in the pond and were able to catch a large small mouth bass and lots of blue gills.

    Wish we had been able to use our original site overlooking the pond but the cabin provided what we needed.

    Nice camping out back

    Camped in the back behind the pond in popup camper. Nice and quite back there and close to the bath house and wash station. There is more privacy between sites and lots of shade on the loop around the pond.

    The kids enjoyed the gaga ball pit and fishing in the KOA pond.

    Perfect for the young and young at heart!

    Ashley here with The Dyrt. I'd like to welcome your host, Milton. It was great getting this property on our site. This is a magical place. You will be surrounds by friendly animals, and lots of them! Swim in the pond, hike the close by National Forest, take a farm tour, or just hangout! We've heard Benjamin the horse is the best horse in Pennsylvania! Check them out and leave them some love. You'll be planning your next visit before you leave!

    Sites sooo cramped!

    Pleasant stay, paid through dyrt(aka campspot) so could not reserve a spot without paying extra. Checkin was all done remotely so no issues on rate change. Spots are VERY close together(think sitting next to your neighbors sewage pipe) despite the fact it was off season, owners packed everyone into a single location.. Most around us where very long term with many having permanent structures, but very quiet. The view was spectacular. Would definately not stay at peak due to the sheer number of people they can cram in. Did not use any amenities. Would have rated much higher if sites were not so close together.

    Not very tent friendly

    Lots of RVs, not many tents. Small section in the back of the campground for tents. Also the worst part is being so close to the gas station/truck stop. Very bright lights on all night. Also close to the highway so there is constant noise! Most likely won't return.
