This magnificent state park is Ohio’s largest state park, with 17,229 acres of recreational facilities available to visitors. Salt Fork State Park camping is possible at more than 200 individual campsites, open year-round.
Very beautiful place to visit. I loved it. I enjoyed the trails and scenery. Very large lake and park. This is one of the largest state parks I have visited here in ohio. Definitely will be going back.
Restrooms were clean and heated shower houses. Had a very large dog park that was fenced in along part of the lake, I really liked this because my dogs love the water, and it was great to see them have so much fun and get to swim.
Great place to have a girls’ weekend with High School friends! Cozy fireplaces, amenities, bar, restaurant, gift shop, heated indoor pool, and a hot tub! Everything that we needed to have an enjoyable trip! We will definitely be back!
Always love my time spent at Salt Fork State Park. If you need time away from every day tasks and a chance to take in the beauty...this is the place to go. It's a great place to unwind, have conversations with friends, and truly be at peace. I have enjoyed everything they have to offer from the pools indoor and outdoor, to the variety of trails, and the fireplaces throughout the lodge. I will always return here with anticipation of another great getaway. Thanks to all for making it so welcoming.
Huge park with a lot of areas to explore. Several of the hiking trails are near camping sites. If you aren't camping, the only parking for these trails is at the camp site shower room building. Trails are marked well. The ones we went on weren't very difficult, but could be interesting if there is a lot of rain or snow melt. The stone house is very interesting to visit from a historical perspective. It isn't open very long and only certain days of the week, but worth checking out if you are there at those times. The nature center wasn't open when we went by it, actually it and the whole area looked abandoned. The hotel is very nice and the room we stayed in was too. Nice balcony overlooking the forest with a bit of a lake view. Very foggy in the morning. We ate lunch and breakfast at the hotel. Food was quite good. Prices weren't cheap, but not the most expensive place either. Several people had dogs with them in the park and the hotel. Gift shop is nice and the prices there are fairly decent.
