"Love this place"

We love staying here for all the shooting events. It's convenient and easy to get around. The lady answering the phone is very friendly. I do wish they would go to online booking. We seem to have an issue with them always being fully booked for larger events but spots are sitting unused the entire time. If they were online, we may be able to book those sites, even if we had to move mid week.

"Awesome Place"

This is a great place to stay especially if you?re into shooting sports! Most sites are plenty big but have seen a few smaller spots as well. Definitely big rig friendly. Has an indoor pool but haven?t used it in the few times we?ve camped there. Really is a great place for the exception of the roads in the campground are shit. Very rough and uncared for. The gravel parts of the campground are very dusty. Useless to have a shiny rig coming in because it?s going to look very dirty leaving, especially after a big competition when there are a lot of people and campers. Overall a very nice place! The staff is very nice and helpful. They will bend over backwards to accommodate you if they can.

"Best in central Ohio"

We've camped here several times. Nice sized sites, lots of FHU and pull through sites. Their shower house is the nicest I've seen anywhere. World class shooting range for gun enthusiasts. Indoor pool and fun activities for the kids.
