Hocking Hills State Park Campground
146 reservable sites, 86 with 20-, 30-, or 50-amp electric hookups, 13 with no hookups, and 47 with full hookups. An additional 23 sites have electric hookups and are reservable only in-person on the day of arrival. Few sites are level for tents or RVs, and some sites are small and right next to the road with little privacy, while others are more spacious and private. Flush toilets and showers are available from April to October. Fills almost every weekend and holiday from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Includes pool, playgrounds, and basketball court. Hiking trails connect directly to Old Man's Cave, Cedar Falls, and Rose Lake.
A quieter and more secluded campground on the edge of the park with 28 sites reservable 6 months in advance and 5 sites that are reservable only in-person on the day of arrival. Cars park in a lot at the end of the campground and are not permitted on the access road, making this campground much quieter for tenters. Water is available at the parking lot, and pit toilets are located throughout the campground. Showers are included, but are only available inside Old Man's Cave Campground. The park's bicycle trails are located nearby, and there is a trail to the main campground.
At the edge of the park with tent and RV sites. Connects directly to Cedar Falls and Ash Cave via the Buckeye Trail.
Souvenirs, groceries, firewood, ice, etc. are all available at the same place where you check in at Old Man's Cave Campground. Beware that firewood sells crazy fast here, and as a result a lot tends to be green.
Shirts, books, mugs, etc. at the Hocking Hills State Park Visitor Center at Old Man's Cave.
Souvenirs, groceries, camping supplies, firewood, and a little eatery are all here. Firewood here tends to be less expensive and a little bit less green than at the camp store.
