Take the Dry Fork Road exit off I-74 (west of Cincinnati near Harrison, Ohio), turn north on Dry Fork Road then right on West Road. Turn left into the park and follow the signs to the harbor (check-in at the boathouse).
Our campsite was very sloped. There is electricity plugins but no water. They have 2 water spikits with potable water. Neighboring campers were letting their small children play with them. Restrooms and campground was clean. Lots of shade from mature trees.
We had fun camping here for my grandsons 7th birthday. Will definitely do this again soon!!!
First time visiting. We absolutely loved this small campground. Spots range from absolutely wonderful to iffy for a camper or tent, so choose wisely. Bathhouse was decent, and I like that they had individual shower rooms instead of it just mixed in with the regular bathroom. The playground in the campground is super nice. A short drive within the park takes you to the visitor center, outside concession stand, playground, and boat rentals for the small lake. Fishing is in designated areas. We took a canoe trip late in the evening and saw loads of great blue herons, along with a couple green herons, sucks, raccoon, and deer. The bike path is nearly 8 miles and very nice. Several hiking trails--all the ones we hiked were nice. You will need to drive to most things as the park is large. We will most definitely be back!
It's $47/night before taxes for every site. This is a campground which only accommodates people with RVs as $47+/night for tent camping in Ohio is ridiculous. They don't offer any primitive site camping. Just RV camping. A real shame this place could benefit from tent camping sites with a more realistic price point. Doesn't even have flushing toilets. Like, I'm not gonna spend $50/night to be forced to tent camp next to some bus and then not even have a real toilet. It feels like a punishment to people who's definition of camping doesn't include a motorhome. Which is sad, because it's a beautiful park.
The campground was clean. The shower and restrooms were clean. You will need to fill your water tanks prior to parking your RV. We tried to make a reservation using 3 different credit cards, the staff could not get them to work. We had to send a friend over to reserve a site for us. We parked our RV on pretty level ground.
I wonder if there will be plenty of open sites this summer if other people have trouble using their credit cards?
