Evergreen Lake Park Campground

When you camp in northeastern Ohio, the beautiful Lake Erie is directly north, and several wilderness areas can be easily accessed to the south. For some serious outdoor recreation and exploration, plan a visit to Allegheny National Forest. In this massive 500,000-acre forest, you can find lots to do, regardless of the season. Whether it’s skiing, snowmobiling, and ice fishing during the frigid winter months or hiking, biking, and horseback riding in the sunny summertime, you’ll enjoy your visit. Extend your stay and park your Conneaut camper rental at one of the campsites within the forest, and you can spend days traversing the mountains, woodlands, wetlands, and prairie, with rivers and lakes in between. For some more forest fun, head to Cuyahoga Valley National Park, a short drive south of Cleveland. With over 12,000 years of human occupation, there’s lots of history to explore while you hike around the amazing environment. Trade the hiking for a scenic train ride or take a trek down the beautiful Ohio and Erie Canal Towpath Trail. Kayaking, fishing, star gazing, tours, and multiple hikes will take you past waterfalls and other marvelous sights. Mosquito Lake State Park is just an hour's drive south of the campsites at Evergreen Lake Park. Offering the best of both worlds, the park features the sprawling 7,000-acre Mosquito Lake, with nearly 2,500 acres of lush wilderness to explore. Hike around the wetlands and woodlands of the area, practice your aim at the archery range, or spend some time on the disc golf course. Horseback riding, picnicking, hunting, fishing, and wildlife watching are also popular pastimes here. Another spot to find some tranquility is West Branch State Park, located in Ravenna. Most visitors come for the 2,650-acre lake that offers terrific opportunities for swimming, boating, and fishing. There's room for everyone to play at this family-friendly park, with a playground and a dog park for the pup. You can also hike across 5,000 acres of meadows, woodlands, forests, and bogs. Hunting, picnicking, camping, horseback riding, and biking can also be enjoyed here.
