    Megg M.

    I was a little afraid to come here after reading all the yelp reviews, but we are so glad we did! We came with a group of 7 and had a primitive tent spot on the river that was beautiful. What the sites lacked in width, they made up for in length. There was plenty of room for our tents and vehicles. They had a DJ Saturday night that was pretty good. A lot of people out dancing and having a good time. With our large group, we couldn't fit on the first bus for canoe drop off. So we had to wait about an hour to board to get shuttled to our drop off but that was fine. I definitely suggest making reservations if you plan on going to down the river. Overall it was pretty relaxed, clean, and our entire group had a great time. The prices were amazing too. We will be coming back next summer! (picture is the view from our campsite)

    Met this fellow camper while visiting. She perfectly sums up the whole experience.

    They have bad sloops getting in and out of the water. It was a pain to get out at the end. People were friendly that we encountered.

    They will take you out for the canoe trip, which seems a little pricy (80 for four people, two canoes) but maybe that's the going rate.

    Mohican Wilderness - Never saw a cicada emerge. I did during our trip and put him on the tree. Also saw a dozen different birds including two ospreys.

    MOHICAN BLUEGRASS FESTIVAL.... I just returned from the festival. The festival itself is amazing…read moreand in a beautiful setting. There were 4 food vendors (the warm apple dumplings with vanilla ice cream was amazing!!!!), music was great. It was a really good event and I would go back The negative... I bought my ticket online about 6 months early for $54 but it's actually $50 if you pay cash when you arrive. I got there and the head lady said that my ticket was already scanned and to get in I would have to buy another ticket. That would be $100 for a one day bluegrass entry. After 1/2 hour of her saying that I had to have sent my ticket to somebody, which I didn't (that would be stupid and makes no sense) she finally let me in after making ne feel like I was a scumbag trying to cheat the system. I will NEVER buy a ticket ahead of time to the Mohican bluegrass festival. Note... I've never had problems with tickets at any other bluegrass festival.

    Stayed in Site 329 7/12-7/15…read more We bought a camper 3 years ago. When we came here last time was 15-20 years ago as a tent camper. MANY updates have been made to this place. 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.

    We camped here for Memorial Day weekend and had a great time! After another friend recommended this…read morecampground we decided to book a stay. They have all different type of site options from full hookup with concrete pads to electric only grassy sites to camp sites with horse friendly tie areas. I would guess there are over 500 sites here. Plus they have very nice cabins to rent. There is a marina for those that want to dock seasonally and a boat ramp for those that just want to put their boat in for the day. No extra cost if camping for the weekend. You can also kayak or rent kayaks and pontoons from the marina part. The welcome center has a naturalist area with educational animals and other interactive exhibits where kids can see and ask questions. During summer months they also have all kinds of activities for families from naturalist led hikes, movie nights, and educational programs. The beach area is a good size for everyone to play. You can pay extra to go on the wibits- water course. They have food vendors and bathrooms close by. Most of the facilities like shower houses and playgrounds are newer and well maintained. Since it is such a large campground I highly recommend bringing bikes or a golf cart (you will want to call ahead to make sure yours is inspected for operation in the park). Also lots of ranger patrols for safety but still freedom to enjoy your weekend.

    Well the animals that I work with had a day on the lake at Pleasant Hill Lake…read more It's a good hour and a half from I71 and 480 so be forewarned...Plan accordingly... And there is an admission charge if you can believe it... The chalet on the hill has a small store in it but since it's on state land there are no potent potables so again...Plan accordingly...Pack everything you want BEFORE you head out because there isn't much in that neck of the woods either...There is a Marathon that does have needs but not a great selection so...Plan accordingly... There is a beach that consists of "sand" that is what is washed up from the bottom and is pretty much just gravel mixed with dirt... Thankfully all we did at the beach was stage it for a gathering point off the boat.... I'd go back cause the lake is plenty big and not overly crowded...So long as we had no reason to get off the boat... But be careful....There is water patrol so use your head here folks....

    Nice campground overall but with a few issues depending on your needs…read more Pros- Relatively level spaces Nice walking trails and plenty of area to explore. Plenty to keep kids busy. Cons- the wifi is awful and is pretty much non existent. The "k9 kamp" is a small fenced in area with nothing in it.

    The park has not seen new gravel in a really long time maybe years. You can see in the pictures…read morethat most of the park is muddy. The steep slope up the hill has a dangerous drop off that people are having to pull their expensive RVS up this winding path. This shows no respect for the campers. If getting mud all over your camper and truck along with having to track mud into the camper because the sites are dirt covered not gravel covered (see pictures), is not bad enough: The owners of the camp had their wedding party inside the camp that ran until 2 in the morning with loud thumping music. They didn't even respect their paying residents enough to follow their own rules of - and I quote from their brochure: QUIET TIME is 10:30 pm - 8 am. Remember your fellow campers may be sleeping. NO LOUD STEREOS AT ANYTIME. They even used all caps. It doesn't say "ANYTIME except when we/the owners have a reason to party". Rules for thee but not for ME is what I'm hearing. As if that wasn't bad enough, my husband went to the office yesterday to buy some propane. He was told at the office that someone would be over shortly to fill his tanks. He waited for half an hour. Finally, an employee happened to pass by (he hadn't even been sent by the office). He cordially filled the tanks. When my husband went back to the office to ask why they kept him waiting. He was told they were busy planning a party. Turns out it was the owner's party. Another example of not respecting the paying customer. One more thing: there are limbs from bushes and trees that need to be trimmed so that they don't scratch the RVs as they are pulling through. I DO NOT recommend this campground. When we come back through this area in September, we will be staying at the camp in Shelby. Is anyone else tired of crappy customer service these days?
