American Wilderness Campground

This park was fantastic for the family! They had activities, a clean game room and swimming lake... The season was wet, but we were lucky enough to get a dry weekend, so everything was very scenic and beautiful. The hiking trails were wonderful and the ambiance of the park really made for a good camping environment. Some of the people there were interesting, but we weren't confronted with rudeness or unwelcomeness from the other campers. The staff worked hard to make sure we had an enjoyable stay too, all-in-all, great for a family weekend! more

What a joke. Where do I start with this train wreck? They sent us to a muddy campsite. They never answer the phone. The ""general store"" wasn't open until 1pm when it was supposed to be open at 11am. The staff is cocky and rude. The icing on the cake was that at the little beach they had (that actually was nice) had worker there turned on the fountains with everyone under there and ruined one of our campers iPhone. When we went to the main office they were cocky and told us that its not their problem and that a manager wold call us. Never happened. Grounds keeper came and mowed the grass and Got grass all over our stuff and our food. Also the showers are gross. What a shame. Great property terrible staff. Not even an ""I'm sorry"" about the iPhone. The manager called us the next day and not once even apologized for the staff or that the iPhone was broken. We asked for a refund and we were told ""It's not our problem."" then we were hung up on. more

Keep up the great work...whatever the management and staff is doing, its working. This campground is great and well worth the trip and momey. It's top rated for a reason! more

This campground is awesome! We went here for a family weekend and we had a really great time. The kids had a wonderful time playing in the game room and doing gem mining and playing. The staff is very friendly and makes you feel welcome. Perfect campground for a nice family camping trip. If you are looking for a campground to go to with your family this is the one to go to. The activities they had that weekend were really fun and kids enjoyed it. They have activities throughout the whole season for kids and adults. more

THIS PLACE SUCKS. POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE, THE OWNER (WOMAN) WAS VERY RUDE , THE DAUGHTER IS SNOTTY AND VERY HORRIBLE AT HER JOB SHOULD NOT BE EVEN ANSWERING PHONES THE ROADS IN THE CAMPGROUND ARE VERY POOR WITH GRAVEL MISSING. . WHATS THE POINT OF HAVING CAR PASSES WHEN YOU LEAVE THE GATE UP ALL NIGHT WHEN THERE NOT IN THE OFFICE.? THATS MAKING THE CAMP GROUND UN SAFE BECAUSE ANY ONE CAN ACCESS THIS WHEN THE GATE Is UP . SO FAR NOT IMPRESSED. THEY PRIDE THERE SELVES ON THE CLEANLY & WARM FEELING OF THIS PLACE I HAVE NOT YET FELT WELCOME , NOR FEEL THE WELCOMING VIBE. ! THEY COULD HAVE A LESSON OR TWO IN CUSTOMER SERVICE. more

I have to let everyone know that I've visited many campgrounds in the state of Ohio and this park is one of the best I've visited. What is really so great is how new everything is, clean and how wonderful the park looks. Know wonder why everyone wants to camp here, they have so much to do when it comes to activites and park ammenties. Can't wait to enjoy this park this summer!!!!!! more

We cannot wait to go camping when the season opens in May. We love this place, the staff, all the fun things to do and the campers. We have loads of fun with all the activities they put on and the new beach resort is totally awesome! Can't wait to camp at AWC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! more

Had to go to the Cleveland Clinic and stayed at this campground. Very convenient to Downtown Cleveland and a nice campground to stay at. Highly recommend it to other travelers with big rigs. Clean bathrooms. more

Fall of 2011 was the wettest in Cleveland, since 1900. Our campground was fortunate to stay open during the terrible wet season. Some campgrounds had to close down due to all the rain and mud. We cannot control the weather. We have extremely high standards at our facility with cleanliness, professionalism and appeal. We are in fact a top rated campground with 8.5 appeal rating. Please be sure to check a trusted RV organization or Association, like Good Sam Park or Trailer Life for accuracy on campgrounds. We love and appreciate our campers and do everything in our power to keep it a clean family park. more

I was stunned when I read that people actually have negative comments about this campground. I'm the most honest person I know and this campground truly is beautiful, professional, clean and the best campground around. This placed isn't filled up with seasonals for no reason!!!! They treat their campers with respect and like family. You should check out the events and things they do to thank their campers for being apart of their community. Its really a shame when people have to be so jealous of a hard working family business that strives so hard to do everything right and the one campground around that keeps putting money back into it every year to make it better. Go there and see how wonderful it is more

was truly shocked by how bad this place really was. First of all, they couldn't help the rainy summer, but this place was a mud pit. You couldn't take a pet to even walk on the driveway without both of you being all muddy. Prepare to pay to have your car washed everytime you go there. Place needs alot of work. Don't leave anything unattended or it comes up missing. Very high priced for what you get. No at all worth the expense or experience. more

The family and myself Was At This Campground over this pass weekend tent area. kids with very bad language Yelling at one another. I asked If they could watch there mouth please and was told F*U* ... the outhouse i all most puked crap all over the seat, wall, floor, sick .. then me and my wife was walking into the back part and was almost ran over by a drunk on a golf cart beer cans falling off on to the road. the smell of pot burning. just wasn't a very family type campground more of a party! party! Place. more

I really like american wilderness campground. Its a fun loving place. The people there are very nice. They have lots of stuff to do while your staying at the campground. They have swimming, fishing, hiking trail, gameroom, bastetball court, vally ball court, and gem mining, which is tons of fun for me and for anybody who loves rocks, gems, seashells and stuff. They have stuff going on almost every weekend. My friends and I had a great time and it was really relaxing for all of us.Everyone got along and the people that were camping next to us were open and friendly. My friends and I recommend this camp site for anybody who is with a family or whos just want's to have a good time with friends. more

Not worth the cost AT ALL. Bathrooms are small, dark and full of dirty paw prints/spider webs. Owners are unfriendly and the store is not open very often despite what's listed on the sign. The entire campground is SUPER dusty due to gravel all over. Playground is old and not at all safe/desirable/suitable for children. Worst part: Other campers keeping you awake literally all night with their loud parties - swearing, lots of loud fireworks and drinking. Cars coming and going all night with people who aren't registered campers - they are just there for the party. There apears to be ZERO supervision by the owners. They have a security gate but it's always open. How dumb is that? Bottomline: If your idea of camping is staying up all night drinking, you'll fit right in. If you have children and want to go to sleep before 3AM - you'll hate this place. A much better option for families is Findley State Park which is just up the road. Pros: nice lake for swimming, although a bit small Cons: no park supervision, too many drunks, loud, obnoxious campers & random people hanging out. Playground is gross - bathrooms are too small, dark, scumy. more
