2022 sewer flies have taken over restrooms
We could not use the restrooms and our rv doesn't have one, so we used the portapotty beside the boat ramp. We called the office and they sprayed but the flies just moved down into the pit farther. Shower houses very clean. Staff very nice. One site has great wifi access but I'm not telling which one. 😄

Bad for tents
Went there in October. No attendance around and not many campers. Sites are very bad for tent camping and not the bet for RV’s. Back ins are sort and most sites have no level ground even for the picnic table or fire ring. Showers were clean but cold. Vault toilets only and stuck to high Heaven. Not serviced well at all. Hiked the lake view trail, poorly maintained. The upper loop from the beach end is very hard to find and not marked at all. Even more disappointing than Hope Lake which has its own site problems for tents.
Nice park, neglected on maintenance
We had read about the quietness of Forked Run and it was we had a loop all to ourselves and only about 15 campers in the whole campground,
It was very clean and the areas coming into the campground beautifully maintained, but once we got to our campsite it was covered in trash, cigarette butts, beer cans and tons of candy and straw wrappers, the woods behind each campsite was loaded in trash, toilet paper and feces.
After a few hours we had our site pretty much cleaned up, but on our walks we noticed more sites looking the same.
Shower house was clean, but after visiting a pit toilet and fighting of hundreds of bugs I noticed the pit toilet was almost overflowing, yes overflowing. As many as I have used I have never seen one so full which explains why everyone was crapping in the woods.
If you want internet bring a WiFi and a booster and you will be good.
No available park ranger, in facts serious accident happened at the front gate and victims waited for EMS to arrive, if a ranger was on duty help could have been faster.
Kayaking was great with some hidden coves.
Other than that it can be a beautiful park, Ohio ODNR you should be ashamed of yourself for the way this park is kept.
