Lake Loramie State Park Campground

9 ReviewsAdd Review
SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Reservations are available year-round at Lake Loramie State Park Campground in Minster, Ohio, with nightly rates ranging from $27 to $110 and full hookup sites accommodating RVs up to 50 feet. The campground sits adjacent to Lake Loramie, a body of water with multiple islands, coves, and inlets that draws anglers and paddlers across multiple visits. Road access from the east involves narrow routes with frequent stop signs, so larger rigs should account for that in route planning. Campers interested in campgrounds near Lake Loramie State Park will find the area has several options spread across the surrounding countryside.

Water access is the most consistent draw. Multiple boat launch ramps serve the lake, canoe and kayak rentals are available on-site, and a large beach provides swimming when water quality permits. Blue-green algae has been documented in the lake during warmer months, with posted warnings advising against contact, which is worth checking before arrival, especially for campers traveling with dogs.

The campground is not remote. Residential houses are visible from some sites, a highway runs along one edge of the campground, and tent sites can feel close together during busy weekends. Noise from neighboring sites has come up in multiple reviews. Bugs, particularly mosquitoes, can be heavy in summer; fall visits may offer a different experience. Megan M. notes the lake has "many islands, coves and inlets," which captures why fishing and paddling remain the campground's strongest draw for repeat visitors.

Visitors often highlighted the lakeside location with excellent fishing and family activities, though several noted concerns about crowded sites and facility cleanliness. The campground offers spacious sites near the water but privacy can be limited during busy periods.

Pretty lake. Parking lot campground

First, the lake here is beautiful. It has many islands, coves and inlets and is perfect for a couple of days of paddling or fishing. That's where the two stars come in. 

BUT. There are many buts. The campground is like a giant RV lot. The sites are tiny. We were in a tent-only site and we had two families right on top of us on either side. We could hear the entire conversations of one family, plus there were 11 people there, three cars, and they were partying the first night and extremely noisy.

The reservation map is incorrect. When I reserved, it showed #13 as being on the end of the tent only area. When we arrived, I found out there was a site #14 that wasn't even pictured on the reservation map, and this is where the giant screaming family was parked! I thought I was going to be on the end- it is not very accommodating for a variety of reasons for a reservation map to be so incorrect. 

The air everywhere reeks of sewage, ranging from what you smell outside a giant pig farm, to what you smell outside of a porta potty, to rotten egg smell. I don't know where these smells were coming from but it was nonstop. 

The bathrooms were extremely dirty. It looks like they haven't been renovated since the 80s. 

The employees in the office never seemed to be able to tell us what we needed to know. We asked on Friday evening where the Saturday morning naturalist paddle would be, and we were told to come back Saturday morning and ask someone else. On Saturday, the person in the office told us to go to a location that was miles away- we spent 40 minutes in the car driving around, trying to find where this activity was, only to give up and find out it was actually adjacent to the campground, not down the road in a different part of the park. 

Last, the lake is in the middle of a residential neighborhood. You can see houses around the edge of the park while you are sitting in your campsite. It is not remote, and there is a noisy, busy highway running along the side of the campground. 

I enjoyed the lake but I will not camp here again.

Great Weekend at Lake Loramie!

We had a great weekend of camping! The weather was perfect, the kids loved the playground and had fun at the Fun Field Day activities! Plenty of fishing and relaxing! We love the little ice cream shop/bait shop across the street.

Suburb camping

Google took me here through the narrowest (yet non populated) roads ever. Lots of stop signs ir coming from the east.

On arrival at my spot, I could see residential houses across the street. The campgrounds were roomy but no privacy. Great spot if you want to party with you favorite other 5 camper friends, but not a nature destination.

Granted I only was here for an overnight and am disappointed that heavybtain stopped from exploring past my camp spot.

Wrong time of Year

I think for us this park might be better in the fall. The bugs were really bad every time we were outside. There are several nice walking trails but the mosquitoes were so bad even in the day that we kept away. The site we had was nice and wooded but if we go back I would like to try and get a water site. There was a brand new kayak launch and playground by the beach area that looked nice. The beach is one of the bigger ones I have seen in a state park and it was very clean. There were signs posted everywhere to use caution with the water because they were know to have blue green algae in the water so we had to keep the dogs away from it. If the water was clear and the bugs were down I would probably rate this park higher.

Home town campground

We love this campground. It is less than 2 miles away from our home but great events and spaces to get our feet wet when learning new techniques.

Perfect retreat for the family or solo adventure

Relax on the waters edge in shear tranquility. Perfect beach for swimming, excellent trails for hiking, and awesome lake to boat. Multiple launch ramps provide ease and convenience. Rent a canoe or kayak and head out for some time alone or with your favorite person. The cabins are heated but pets are not allowed. Campground is huge as are the sites. Some are premium, there’s a few ADA and some lakeside making for a great view to enjoy your morning coffee.

Fun for kids during the day and sage at night.

We have stayed many times. Love being so close to the lake we can fish all the time. The beach is a bit of a walk from the campground but not to far. They offer canoe rentals, and bike rentals. The park also has beautiful cabins on the lake shore.
