    Had such a great time! Was a little bit chaotic when we first checked in and selected our watercrafts because the lobby area is also the gift shop, would be better if they had some rope and stanchion or system for a line. You have a choice between kayaks, canoes, tubes or a full raft like the one we chose. Once you have selected and paid you wait for a shuttle bus to take you down to the river. We then waited in line to launch our vessels and paddled away. Had such a fun time even with the water levels low in some places. Once we had finished, they helped us out of the water and we were back at the facility. They had all sorts of other activities like a rope course and the price was reasonable. Would definitely like to return on my next visit to Ohio.

    We had a blast floating down the river with our family. We are planning another trip next year. Not sure why it took so long to discover this place. We took rope to tie our tubes together and also purchased a floating cooler to hold our beverages. Make sure to pack snacks!! Great time!

    Wowza, what an experience. From waiting about an hour in the scorching hot sun and dodging other patrons ignoring social distancing rules to floating down the river with friends, strangers, good music, and drinks in hand. This experience was all over the place. For starters, you cannot reserve or do anything in advance at Mohican Adventures. While this would help with the large crowds, long lines and wait times, they've decided not to go that route. Trust me, I called and chatted with them and was told I just need to show up and hope that I can get a canoe/kayak and on the river by noon. Coming from over an hour away, this was a little nerve racking but my friends and I decided to risk it. We arrived around 10 in the morning to find the largest crowd I've seen since before March. Pro tip - Drop someone off to wait in line and have them wait while you park the car and unload. There was one person in front of my group holding the line for 30 (at least) young girls there with their entire volleyball team. Needless to say when 30 people joined the one person waiting, people in line got a little upset. Anyhoo, my group of four people were the only ones in the entire place wearing masks. Staff, nope. Other patrons, nope. It was wild and I'm so glad I was being safe. When we finally got up to the counter in the office we paid quickly, were handed a slip of paper, and told to find our line to get on the bus. My group went with the 15 mile route. This took roughly 5-6 hours and was not the busiest choice, which was nice. Instead of waiting in another long line, we were able to get on a bus right away. We were told that social distancing would not be applied due to how busy they were (facepalm), again I'm so glad I brought my mask. After grabbing our life jackets and rows, getting instructions on how to tell how far we've gone, etc., we finally got on the water around 11:30. Our canoes were in good condition, the water was low but not too low, and the weather was perfect thanks to the trees that shaded us most of the way. Overall, I really wish there were more COVID precautions. I went to another place in Hocking Hills in June and they had no problem enforcing social distancing, requiring masks, allowing reservations for staggering visitors, etc. After knowing what a safe experience is like and comparing it to this one, I plan to stick with my previous water adventures business.

    Relatively inexpensive & a fun way to spend the day! I originally planned on renting kayaks, but it had stormed pretty heavily earlier in the week so kayaks were unavailable due to higher than normal water levels. We decided to go rafting instead (the 7 mile) & it was loads of fun. The river has a current that carries you through - minimum rowing is required besides steering. The weather was fantastic, the views were great. No issues with bugs in September. Staff was nice - after you're finished, they'll help you pull the raft up & drive you back to the parking lot. All in all, fantastic way to spend the day. They do military discount.

    This is our second visit to Mohican Adventure Campgrounds. Note: some of the reviews on here are for the canoeing and aerial park that is an extension of the Mohican Adventure. My review is on the campground for the most part. Your experience can vary depending it you tent camp, rv or cabin. Both of our experiences we tent camp and both times we had a wonderful time. The first year, we camped in the wooded area. Our site was a decent size but, I do want to note that there are some other sites that are very small. Either way most of the sites are only one tent per site so if you have more than 2 adults and two kids you should either rent more than one site or make sure you get one of the larger sites. The other thing to note is that the wooded sites are in the mountains and some of the sites are not close to the main bathrooms. We enjoyed our site and had no complaints. This year we went with a larger party so the open camping area was more convenient for us. We had a great site! Close to the bathrooms and large site. Picture shows site 402. The first thing I want to rave about is the bathrooms!! Super modern and clean, even as the weekend brought in the crowds the bathrooms were always in decent shape. This is super important to me as you can see. :) the Mohican Staff did an excellent job keeping them clean! The kids had volleyball court, Basketball court, corn hole, horse shoes, playground and ponds to keep themselves entertained. They have indoor pool and paddle boats but the were closed due to covid. We did not to go on the to rent conoes or do the aerial course that is available across the street for an extra money bc we were able to enjoy other things in the area that was more cost effective and equally as fun. However, My sister did take the kids to play mini golf across the street and she said it was nice. The Mohican State Park is right next door and had a nice hiking trail for free. We visited Lake Pleasant Hill Valley $10 parking and nice lake to swim and kayak and we found a farm near by that offers horseback riding for $25 an hour. Overall, we really enjoyed our Mohican Adventure weekend. We found lots of things to do in the area. The site was perfect for us and we plan to be back. For RV folks, you might find the sites to be small and back to back. Little privacy.

    My family and I stay in Frye's cabin annually, and we have always enjoyed our peaceful stay. This year was different. The cabin was perfect and relaxing, however the parking was awful. We spent quite a bit of money to stay in the cabin, so I would expect to not have overflow parking near the cabins for privacy. Instead, after our afternoon float, there were several cars on our cabin rental property and we were greeted by several drunken jerks causing problems ON OUR CAMPSITE! Their kids running behind our cabin. What a mess. I'd suggest allowing the cabin visitors to have their privacy, and only allow parking up on the hill IF needed. We notified the person on the golf cart who was going to mention something to management. Please take note of this, and respect future guests by blocking off the cabin areas that WE PAID FOR so other vehicles aren't in our campsite.

    Better with more people to splash

    Always a great time! The service was good and friendly. The more people you have the better discount you get. We try to do this once a year with a group of people. We have been coming here now for 10 years, pack a lunch and enjoy!

    I've gone here to rent canoes, kayaks and tubes ever since I was a kid. My family used to go when we were kids all the time. The last time I was here was with some of my family last Friday. Buy your tickets before 11:30 AM and that gives you enough time to make it all the way down the 15 mile trip in time before close at 6 or 6:30pm (sorry I don't remember which one it was). 12 bridges crossed in total on this trip. The river was pretty high so we never drug the bottom even in the canoe with 2 people, 2 medium sized dogs, a medium sized cooler and 2 book bags. We had a blast. I personally really like to take a bud up river/creek (whichever it may be at the time) and float down into where I parked. After a long day in the sun it's nice to unpack the boats, clean up the dogs and ourselves and figure out where we're going to stop to eat on the drive home. There is a shorter trip to take and I know that trip is one where you get in and float down where you'd have to look out for signs the whole way stating where to meet for pickup. I like a more relaxing trip. There's hoses that we use to spray down the pups before loading them into the car in the cement columns/platforms. Sorry I have no idea what to call them. They're used to spray down the boats so they're next to the trailers before you get to the picnic shelters. My family and friends really enjoy this company because getting through the ticket lines, knowing where to wait for shuttles, loading on and off and employee interaction is straightforward, quick, efficient and nobody is ever in your business. DO NOT LITTER. Bring extra bags to collect and take your trash and whatever else with you. The river and banks looked relatively clean but do your part and clean up after yourself. Nobody else should have to do it for you and I don't want a place like this ruined from people who didn't care enough. Anyways thanks for reading. Hope this is helpful. :)

    Even though it's a bit of a drive, this is my go-to place for canoeing and kayaking…read more It's just SO cheap compared to all the places further north, which are double or triple the price for less time on the river. We take the 14 mile trip, which essentially works itself out for $25 a person. The canoes and kayaks are a little older, the vans are older, they might not clean the life jackets super often, but it's a kickass time! But honestly, who cares! You're going to get dirty and sweaty canoeing or kayaking down the river. You really cannot beat the price for the experience. There's a lot less litter on the river compared to when I've went further north, less cars, and you are surrounded by corn fields. The river is simply beautiful and relaxing. It depends on the weekend whether or not there will be a lot of people - not many people do the 14 mile trip, so the first 7 miles of that are peaceful. After you hit the 7 mile mark, there tends to be a lot more people, as that's what most people take. 14 miles takes around 4-5 hours (or 6, depends on how much or little you're paddling, speed of the river, etc) , and 7 miles takes about half that. They also aren't strict at all on what you can bring/drink on the river, or if you need to stop, or anything else. In addition, if you do flip, the water level is 3 feet at most along the river. Just make sure to call ahead if it has been raining recently. I would recommend taking a trip out here out to the middle of nowhere to spend a summer day. It's a ton of fun and a good way to build teamwork trying not to flip a canoe or kayak.

Inconsiderate campers, LOUD music as if you were at a concert (not exaggerating), A LOT of excessive drinking, illegal drugs, and loud swearing from surrounding campers. I went to unplug and relax, however this cannot happen at this campground. I used to take my children to the POWWOW but things have drastically changed, not for the good. The only good thing is the campgrounds are beautiful, it used to be even more beautiful before they allowed it to become Sodom and Gomorrah, the restrooms were very well maintained and clean, and the campsite grounds were very well maintained. Other than that BEWARE. Throughout my stay, my car had white hand prints on it, like someone put on SPF and put their prints on my car. I would clean off the handprints only to find new prints on my car in different places the next morning. There was also an incident with illegal spider monkeys in the restrooms, in which one of the monkeys was climbing over while I was taking a shower, I was traumatized, screaming to get the monkey away. I went to the office and they would do nothing about it. MONKEYS ARE ILLEGAL IN THE STATE OF OHIO, they also carry a lot of diseases and can be aggressive. I ended up leaving that evening because I did not feel safe, to return the next day and retrieve the remainder of my things, ending my stay three nights early.

We both are done with state parks. Mohican Wilderness is our go to campsite. Dont fight with packed loud state parks. Go here. Trust me. Please see the pic with the sign "Quiet Refuge" if this appeals to you this may be the campground of your dreams. Pros: They are deadly serious about not being inconsiderate. Even during the day. Want to crank your radio? You will get told to turn it down so it cant be heard off your site. *I* will be the person that reported you (after I told you once you are annoying me) Staffed really well Office staff was very accommodating and professional. Constantly doing maintenance on the property. (I hear chainsaws and lawnmowers far off in the distance!) Put your trash in bags by the roadway every hour they come by and take it. Spots are clean - Spacious - and did I mention quiet? For a campground with 250 sites they have 7 pump out stations. The pump out stations are setup great too. Didn't need to pull out the long hose. water pressure was VERY high which was great for back washing my black tank. Shower houses are pretty convenient Discount program for subsequent stays all the way to 30% off. No cellphone service We did the 5 mile Kayak trip on Monday and it was nice. Because of where our trip went it was clear of other people on the river. Everything they have is well maintained. From the Kubota/John Deere Zero turn mowers to the Ford Transit vans they use for the river trips. The whole place looks clean and inviting. Cons: No cellphone service. Wow the pit toilets are horrendous. I mean seriously. WOW. Dual seats? lol It is FAR from everything- This might be a Pro.
