This is a trailer park not a campground...the first clue was no picnic tables on sites an the roads were awful. The water is a light yellow color an has an oder. It rained while we were there and it really brought the septic oder with it.👎

Do not stay here without an RV. 1 star is generous. If they were trying to drive me away they couldn’t have done a better job. We camp about once a year and have a cargo van and a tent. This year – May 2025 – I stayed the week before Memorial Day. Negatives: • Nobody was present for check-in, before 5 on a Saturday • Flush toilets near the campsites were filthy, blocked, and overflowing. Be glad I didn't include a photo. • Hot water was not turned on to the showers near the campsites, at least in the ladies’ room, although the hot tap in the basins worked. Showers at the front building ok. • Electric in my assigned spot didn’t work. Since there were empty spots all around, I parked in a different space. Having an electric heater means that yeah, electric is important. (it was in the 40s at night). I requested a refund, but per their contract they didn't have to give me one. Hence my first flaming review. I don't like to do that, but since the wretched experience was not my choice, a refund would have been good PR. • Outhouses are not maintained. If they are not closed, people will use them. That means they need to be cleaned and have toilet paper available! • Communication is not their strong point Positives: • Great WiFi • Pretty quiet at least Sunday – Wednesday nights. I left Thursday • It’s rumored that the site could have been turned into housing, so props to the new owners for preventing that ---- Regarding the electric, I called, left a message, and got a reply saying I wasn’t in the right spot. I knew that and moved to spot 33, but the box didn’t work. Lots of going around and around by phone and email. Finally on Thursday I got a clear answer, which was to use the electric in spot 34, and (I assume – but it wasn’t clear) still park in spot 33?? If they had told me that on Monday, or when I checked in (Oh, yeah, nobody to check in with), I might not be so furious with them. My week was ruined.

Our experience at this location was largely negative, unfortunately. The most significant issue was the absolutely horrid smell of rust emanating from the shower water. It was so strong that we couldn't bring ourselves to use the facilities after the first attempt. To make matters worse, dripping water also left noticeable rust stains on our RV. The website was also quite confusing, leading to an initial booking error where we accidentally reserved a tent space. Thankfully, this was resolved without too much hassle. The only positive aspect of our stay was the availability of Wi-Fi, which was a definite plus. However, this single amenity couldn't outweigh the significant problems we encountered. Overall, while the Wi-Fi was appreciated, the unusable showers and rust issues make it difficult to recommend this place. We certainly won't be returning. Ps, as a queer couple, we felt it necessary to mask and keep distance between us.

We stayed here for 6 nights, central to where we wanted to go. For a full hookup, you can't beat $40 a night and you have to keep this in mind. Sites are clean but tight and really no room to use your firepit if someone is next to you. NO PICNIC TABLES are provided, so bring your own table if you want one. So much potential here and very little money would make a huge difference. Most of the sites appear to be seasonal (open year round) and some people are living here fulltime. Condition of some of the campers are quite poor and rundown and affects the appearance and opinion of this campground; cost to live here fulltime is only $3500 a year. Restrooms are large enough and clean enough but both doors on women's stalls did not close and one door simply needed knob screwed in better. Often there was no TP. Pool was large but not routinely cleaned and campstore was filthy, dust everywhere. Again, so much potential to be a nice place if more effort was put into maintenance, cleanliness and restrictions on the condition of trailers on premises. The Good - Miss Barb was friendly and accommodating. The Pint House in nearby Baltimore is quite nice. Hocking Hills is 45 min away, the Wilds and Columbus zoo are about an hour.

I can not for the life of me figure out how this place has a 4.1 star rating. It has so much potential, but it’s dirty. It’s basically an RV trailer park. A large majority of the campers are full time because it’s open year round. Let’s start with the good. Barb in the front office is very nice! The WiFi is probably the best I’ve had in a campground. We even got it inside the camper! There is a pool, playground, volleyball & basketball court, bounce house, camp store, and game room. The bad! While all those things exist in the campground, they are old and dirty. The pool vacuum didn’t move the entire time we were here (5 days). There was a ridiculous amount of dirt in the pool. The game room consisted of 2 games and a pool table. It also shared space with the laundry room. The bath houses are just gross. Neither bathroom door worked. I never saw someone clean them while we were there and you had to take your own toilet paper to ensure you had some. The camp store reminded me of an old service garage. Everything was cramped and cluttered and had dust on it. We arrived at 4 p.m. on a Sunday and the office was closed. Thankfully I knew what site we were in and could set up. No communication on that at all. I could go on and on about what I find wrong with this place. Long story short: this place has such potential! But the upkeep is minimal. I can handle old! I can handle things needing updating. A coat of paint would make a world of difference. What I can’t handle is filth. And this place is filthy!

We had a great visit. We were invited to a birthday party being held on the grounds. It was fantastic. The owner Cheryl goes out of her way to make sure you have some fun. The 4th of July parade was great. The kids trick or treat event was lots of fun. Check this place out for a weekend camping trip or longer. Lots of trees and nature surrounding the campground.

Visited Rippling Stream campground yesterday evening. Been years since I was last there. It’s a nice campground with lots of families with kids camping. Campsites are a little tight but it is an older campground. Good location between Pickerington and Baltimore.

Nice & cool under the shade trees! They don't answer the phones much, but if you show up & ring the bell, you get service. Beautiful & quiet.

I stayed here while working in the area. Its a "primitive" campground in that it doesn't have wifi or full hook up but don't let that turn you away. I love how quiet and peaceful it is. The owner tries to make your stay pleasant. I would stay here again.

Serious raccoon infestation. Raccoons tearing into campers when you're not there... And if you rent a lot from them, you are 100% responsible for the unhealthy trees on the lot you rented.
