There’s no better way to spend a summer weekend than camping in the great outdoors, and the Buckeye State certainly has plenty to choose from. There are several campgrounds where you can stay without a reservation, and there are even campgrounds for people who hate camping! The oldest campground in the Ohio is Long Lake Park Campground, and you’re going to want to check it out, too.
Long Lake Park Campground is located on the shores of Bonnett Lake in the northern part of Ohio. The lake is the perfect place to spend a magical summer day.
