We camped here 4th of July weekend and had a great time…read more This is a big campground with several sections. The signage makes it easy to find your spot. I will say the spots are somewhat smaller compared to other Ohio state parks we stayed at. The slots are not angled so it can be tricky to back in. They do offer lots of pull through options. Inside the campground there is a boat launch, lots of extra parking, shower houses, camp store, game room, and nature center. They don't offer a lot of activities but there were a few. My kids just loved riding our bikes up to the beach and playing in the lake. There is a nice bike bath that makes it easy to get there. There is no food in the area so bring your own or be prepared to drive.

The campground was full and sites were right on top of each other, everyone was mostly respectful…read more Check-in was easy, but late night noise levels were not enforced. One rude group kept everyone up until 3am. And many campers left so much food, booze bottles and garbage everywhere. Several of the bathrooms ran out of toilet paper. The trails were mostly mowed and taken care of.

Now that we upgraded to a travel trailer, the dump station is a nice feature for us. They have 3 concrete-slab sites, 3 sleeping cabins (with air conditioning!) and several grass sites. Nice new laundry equipment. Decent showers/bathroom. And a heated pool! We'll be back again as soon as we can!

Plenty of parking for cars, boat trailers, and golf carts. We were there on a Friday afternoon, so it wasn't super crowded and everyone was kind of spread out across the beach. We saw a blue heron, and my friend fell asleep on her towel. We also went back to hike some of the North Loop trail. A good time was had by all, minus the incident with the poorly behaved off leash golden retriever. There's almost always one of those, though..... Note that the beach is not technically dog friendly, but there were a few there.

We saw some great wildlife on our walk - turtles, water snakes, and raccoons. There are some rougher latrine style restrooms available near the beach. The park location is great, near the famous glacial grooves.

Visited Fort Firelands RV Resort for the 2nd time. My cousin owns a trailor there and they visit…read morefrequently. I am not an owner, so I don't know what it's like to be one. But from a visitor's perspective, this resort is nice. There are outside bathrooms and a swimming pool, which we always use. There is a small fishing pond as well. In the morning, I went for a peaceful walk around the place and it was very relaxing. It sits right on a bay of Lake Erie and is in close proximity to the Ohio islands as well as cedar point. The location is great. The place is quiet and there are lots of trees, which give it personality and shade - things some people might take for granted. We enjoyed our stay.

It is out of date and has barely any of the amenities still listed. Honestly surprised they haven't been shut down. If you're looking for a campground in the area don't waste your time on Fort Firelands. There plenty of other acceptable ones.

East Harbor is situated on a peninsula stretching into the waters of Lake Erie…read more The park also lies on the fringe of Ohio's prairie marsh zone. These wetlands are remnants of the Great Black Swamp, which once covered an area 120 miles long and 30-40 miles wide. Nature enthusiasts enjoy viewing an abundance of waterfowl and shorebirds in the park's scenic wetlands, as well as from the swimming beach and picnic areas along the lake. Our family and Apache camper began a series of visits in 1967, and East Harbor has remained a favorite. Greatly enjoyed the beaches, which now have a three-foot stone barrier to prevent erosion. We visit year round. The surrounding area has become somewhat commercialized. Lots of campers and fisher folks. In our early visits, we discussed a holiday at the State Park rather than a trip to the Outer Banks or to Hilton Head... My dear wife observed that an annual Atlantic Ocean Beach holiday was elemental to our life style.
