This family-owned destination spans over 150 acres of lush woodland, offering a blend of traditional camping and modern recreational amenities. It is a place where travelers can disconnect from the bustle of everyday life while still enjoying the comforts of a well-maintained facility.

Location & Surroundings
The resort is situated in New Philadelphia, Ohio, making it an ideal base for exploring the state's picturesque eastern region. Surrounded by dense forests and rolling landscapes, the park feels secluded despite being easily accessible from major highways. Its location provides a perfect gateway to Ohio’s Amish Country, where the pace of life slows down significantly. The immediate surroundings are defined by towering timber and a spring-fed lake, creating a natural sanctuary that remains cool and shaded even during the height of the summer months.
Amenities & Park Features
The heart of the resort is its expansive seven-acre spring-fed lake, which serves as a hub for swimming, fishing, and boating. RVers will find various features designed for both comfort and fun:
- Spacious RV sites with full hookups and 30/50 amp service.
- A challenging par 3 golf course and professional-grade zip line.
- A sandy swimming beach, paddle boats, and a themed miniature golf course.
Practical needs are well-covered with clean bathhouses, laundry facilities, and a camp store stocked with essentials, ensuring a comfortable stay without needing to leave the grounds frequently.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Beyond the resort gates, the New Philadelphia area offers rich historical and cultural experiences. Visitors often spend the day at Schoenbrunn Village, a restored 18th-century settlement, or marveling at the intricate carvings at the Ernest Warther Museum and Gardens. The nearby city of Dover and the charming towns of Holmes County provide endless opportunities for shopping for handmade crafts and enjoying authentic Swiss-German cuisine. Outdoor enthusiasts can also explore the various hiking trails and local parks that dot the Tuscarawas Valley.
Who This Park Is Best For
Wood’s Tall Timber Resort is an excellent choice for families seeking an active vacation where children can roam freely between the beach and the playground. It also appeals to nature lovers and birdwatchers who appreciate the quiet beauty of a wooded setting. Because of its proximity to cultural landmarks, it is a fantastic home base for Amish Country explorers who want a rustic retreat at the end of a day of sightseeing. If you value a mix of outdoor adventure and peaceful forest living, this resort will likely fit your travel style perfectly.

I can’t express enough how wonderful Woods Tall Timber’s is. This is our second year tent camping here. My sister and I have started a tradition with our grandchildren to go tent camping once a year. The kids range from 4-13 and there is something for everyone. This is the cleanest camp ground I’ve ever seen, even the bath house is spotless. We were late checking in , just after 6 and the young girls in the office were all so sweet and welcoming ( even though there shift was over and I’m sure they just wanted to go home)I wish I would’ve remembered their names. However I did remember Jamie, he was so helpful and kind. He let us rent a golf cart ( even though office closed at 6) and we would see him several times during our camping trip and he would stop and say hello. We are looking forward to next years trip. Thank you 😊
