We recommend booking at least 6 months in advance of the desired arrival date, as our Campground will fill up quickly! We book reservations up to 360 days in advance, so you can even re-book your stay for 2023 at checkout.

We do offer you the opportunity to guarantee your favorite campsite or cabin by paying our applicable locking fee. If you opt out of the locking fee, you are guaranteed your selected site or cabin type, but NOT the specific unit number.

Yes! We just ask that you call ahead of time and check in at the Registration office before entering the park. Monday-Thursday are the best days to come to take a tour!

Our rates depend on when you’d like to stay and what amenities are available during your dates. Non-Peak season is cheaper than Peak season, and weekdays are cheaper than weekends. However, please be sure to check amenity availability before booking.

We have firewood available for purchase at our Country Store and 93 Gate.

To preserve the beauty of our wooded Campground, please do not cut down or damage trees in any way.

Seasonal campers must pay a $50 registration fee and complete a golf cart registration form.
Overnight campers are not allowed to bring in their own golf cart unless required for ADA purposes, in which proper tags are required. For your convenience, we've expanded our fleet of golf cart rentals that allow accessing our campground easy…and fun!

For safety and liability reasons, guests are not permitted to bring any personal motorized vehicles into the Campground. Guests found in violation of this policy may be asked to leave without refund.

Alcohol is available for purchase at John O’s, the Tiki Bar at the Beach House, and the Country Store. Outside alcohol can only be brought to your campsite, as it is an extension of your home, but outside alcohol is not permitted anywhere where it is sold per Ohio State liquor laws. Glass is not permitted.

Inflatables and toys are permitted in the chill zone of our waterpark. No oversized inflatables allowed.

Since we are a family friendly campground, smoking, including vaping, of any kind is not permitted. This is including, but not limited to, the water park area, playgrounds, pavilions and all buildings. Smoking of any substances besides tobacco and vaporizes will not be tolerated. Management reserves the right to fine violators of this policy.

You bet, unless when we are under a Burn Ban, so be sure to ask the 93 Gate at check-in. We ask that campfires be confined to designated hours and are not left unattended. We do not permit outside firewood being brought into our park or the cutting of any of our trees or brush. Firewood is available for purchase at the Camp Store, Welcome Center, and 93 Gate.

Because the campground is full of active families with children, the speed limit throughout the campground is 5MPH and is strongly enforced for your safety. We realize that this is ridiculous. If you do not feel that you are driving ridiculously slow, then you are driving too fast.

We are so excited to have you stay with us! There are a few optional items you can bring along to maximize the fun during your trip. You are welcome to bring bicycles to help you get around the park. We also suggest bringing fishing poles for some quality family fishing. And keep in mind that while we do offer plenty of activities here at the park, there are many local attractions that your family may enjoy as well! If you have any questions about your upcoming stay, our friendly Reservations team is here to help! Feel free to give us a call at (330) 854-6691.

Yes! Once you’ve checked out of your campsite or cabin, you’re welcome to stick around and enjoy our water park, mini golf and other attractions!
