Such a great park. I have yet to leave a review regarding a Thousand Trails park but felt this one earned it. The park itself is quite large however not a ton of spots overall but that is what made part of why it was great! Bigger rigs, like ourselves pulling a 45ft 5th wheel, are more on the outer rim of the park but that came with an entire view of the open grass area that's the whole center of the grounds. While there were trees on the property, thankfully non of them are towering over any of the actual spots. There were little play areas sprinkled across the grass area that my kids really liked and plenty roads to ride bikes around. Laundry room, like another review had mention has 6 washers all with agitators and 6 dryers. $2 to wash and $2 to dry. Machines take quarters only but better yet if you need change, the office will make the exchange you need. We also happened to trickle one day into the kids lounge in the main building. Had a bit of nostalgic feel walking thru and yet my kids really enjoyed it. One thing to note - when driving in with your rig be sure to jump on the website before to get travel instructions and see the part about the 10'8 bridge within 5mins of the park. We didn't think to do that and unfortunately got stuck. Had to back up into someone's driveway along the road. It was a tight fit but thankfully after a 33-point turn we made it. Lol Otherwise, park was beautiful and quite. Would be happy to stop there again!

Beautiful RV park. Wonderful & helpful staff- met Blane, thx for being so great. Spaces are good size, maneuverability is very good. Large open spaces & you can ride your bikes all over the grounds, around the lake, etc. yes, we’d come back for a few weeks. If you like covered bridges, this is the place.

This was my favorite campground this season! Every RV site is full hookup. Let me repeat that, every RV site is full hookup. That means they all have water, electric, and sewer. Awesome! The showers had very fancy sprayers and looked luxurious (see pic). Every RV slot was spacious, nice and wide and deep, so you didn’t feel on top of each other like other places. At the end of one of the rv loops was a small pond with lots of lily pads and then a bench swing overlooking a lake with a woodsy area behind it. Everyone we came across seemed nice and friendly. I felt safe here. People took great care of their locations. I was surprised by how many Canadian geese there were. The campground is huge and very walkable for both myself and our dog but there is a dog park if you prefer that. I should also mention the laundry room had SIX, yes, six washers and six dryers and each were the cheapest yet this trip. Eli, the front check-in person, was very sweet and offered helpful local advice, maps, and brochures. I certainly hope to return here!

Convenient off I-90. Lots of seasonals, limited transient pull thru Sites in full sun but good spacing and FHU. Staff friendly and nice job of guest packet with area stores and services listed. Pool is small but was clean and nice for a dip. Could get crowded quick with kids due to small size. Not a destination CG for us but a good rest over spot.

Very quiet place with most of the RV spots being annual. We had level pull through spots with water 50 amp and sewer conditions. Verizon was weak but the t mobile was working great. The place is on the lake and has two fishing ponds. Big open meadow in the middle, pool mini golf, dog park and more. The laundry room is very clean. On arrival we were provided with information about the area which was very nice. There is a lot to do in the area, lake Erie is only 20 min away, multiple wineries and covered bridges provide a chance for road trips. Cuyahoga National Park is about an hour away.
