Take your pup to our Large Pup Park! This is an enclosed area for our four-legged campers to roam off-leash, with your supervision, of course. We have a professionally structured mini putt-putt course, shuffleboard, and multiple other fun amenities. Inflatable games are open on weekends at specific times (see office) when they can be staffed due to Ohio State Law. Check out our Events to see what we have in store for campground recreation as well as things to do around the lake area
