We enjoyed our stay at Punderson State Park. Many sites are for tents only, and there are only five full hook-up sites. Park has only 20 amp service, so you had be careful not to have the a/c and coffee maker on at the same time. The restrooms and showers were clean but like the electric service it is in need of updating. The big plus was the staff and the parks nature programs. Both top rated. They have nature programs every weekend. We camped here in a Motorhome.
All sites have 20 amp power; no water at sites other than the five full hookup sites. Potable water at dump station. Sites are generally shaded, well spaced, and private. Few obstructions to complicate back-ins. Some pull throughs. Picnic tables and fire rings. Tables are now OK. Some water views. Friendly and helpful staff. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We stayed 8 nights. We rented a car in Chardon and they picked us up promptly to get the car. We stayed in a full-hookup site, which was OK, but rather unlevel and not very private, but quite large. Numbers 11 and 13 were the best. The downside was that we arrive 2 hours before check-in, and even though our site was available, they would not let us proceed, so we had to stay in the parking lot. The people running the campground were apologetic about it, and very nice. Be sure to visit Mangamanga (sp?) restaurant for very good Italian food at very reasonable prices! It's about a mile from the campground....we ate there three times. The lunch menu was around $7 per entree. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was a beautiful campground. Nice paved access roads and paved fairly level large sites. We had one of the five full hookup sites. I would recommend site 11 for the most level of the five full hook up sites. Site 13 is the largest of the five. Many beautiful sites throughout the park if full hooks are not a consideration. Friendly staff. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Would be an excellent campground if they took every other site out. Most sites are to close together. Pads have enough room for a pickup truck and a 30' travel trailer. Staff friendly and helpful. Picnic tables, old and rotten. We camped here in a camper.
