Our site was close to the pool and camp store. The shower house was in good shape, clean, and looked like a fresh coat of paint had been added this year. The staff was very friendly, there was some noise from the nearby airport (small planes only), that quit soon after dark. Overall, a good campground, and we'll be back again next year. We chose this campsite because it was close to Cedar Point, and also Vermilion Ohio, where we were racing a triathlon. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The sites are smaller than other places we have stayed and we had to do some creative things to get our pop up and van to fit without the bumper of the van sticking into the road, but we were able to make it work. The pool was very nice and clean and the folks at the office were very helpful and knew the area really well. We enjoyed the volleyball court and my boys enjoyed both the basketball court and shuffleboard court. The playground was really quite nice, although our kids are teens and did not use it. We chose this park as a cheaper alternative to the Cedar Point campground. The park is located just minutes from the park entrance which was very nice after a long day at the park. We visit the park every summer and were glad to find somewhere we could stay a couple of extra days and make a mini vacation out of it. The train was kind of a nuisance and yes, it came once every hour all day and night, but after the first couple, we didn't really pay much attention to it and it was not loud enough to wake us at night. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
While the sites and bathrooms/showers were clean the sites were small. The combined camper/tent site we stayed at had a small groove running through it and continuing through the neighboring sites. There also was an impression in the ground where the fire ring used to be. This also was in the only area where a tent could be placed along with the small groove. This is a natural collection place for rain water. Since it rained the second night of the two we were there, these indeed collected water and much to our dismay, seeped through one of the tent floor seams and made for a long wet night. Also, it seems that there is one of the nations busiest railroads right next to the park. There are two or three long trains every hour all day and all night long. And of course they cross nearby roads so they blow their horns each and every time. If you can put up with the trains and have a camper/RV then this is not a bad campground. It is very close to Cedar Point and has a nice pool. We camped here in a Tent.
This is next to a mobile home park (not an upscale one), and has lots of "residents" who are not typical RV-park crowd. The girlfriend wouldn't have stayed there if we didn't have a self-contained RV. Sites are very tight, and "pull-through" sites weren't, there were posts that kept me from being able to pull in with my relatively short 19 foot trailer, I had to approach from the other side and back in. Well, shoot, I could have saved money and just got a back-in site! In addition, reserved the site on KOA.com only to find that they wanted "tax" when I arrived (a couple of dollars) - no other KOA, including other KOA's in Ohio, has ever done this, any taxes are included in the reservation. Finally, the office area is rather scary - has a "pool hall" feel to it, with the "store" being a shelf or two of food behind the counter (that says something). Other reviews mention the trains nearby, and they aren't lying - every 15 minutes, you can almost set you watch to it. It is clear they are trying very hard to clean up the place, and I have a lot of hope for the campground, but right now I will stay elsewhere. The good thing I can say is that the rate was appropriate for the accommodations, it just wasn't up to normal KOA standards. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Very nice park located about 10 minutes from the gate of Cedar Point. Costing about 1/3 of the park inside Cedar Point, it's a no brainer to where to stay for us. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a large park, expensive, but nice, Many activities for kids at the Park and surround area such as Cedar Park Amusement Park. I would stay here again. Staff very helpful. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
I would agree with previous comment on how tight the sites were. If you have a slide out it's really tight. The staff however was very helpful and nice. The fire pits were very close to each other. We could hear everyone's conversation if we were not talking. Too close for us. I also agree on the scary part of town comment. However, after being in the gated campground you felt much better. It's just driving in and out of the area that makes you feel just a little uneasy. We camped here 3 nights. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Unfortunately, the campground did not have pictures of the surrounding area on their website. When we got there, we understood why. It is not exactly in the best part of town and there is a railroad that runs trains day and night blaring horns. The sites themselves were not bad, but the restrooms and showers looked like they get cleaned once a week. We left after the first night after realizing this "family campground" had an area dedicated to people who want to stay up all night partying. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The sites are so small that we almost hit the next camper when we opened our awning. We had a pull through but it was so small and tight that we could not pull through so we had to back in. Site was so small that we had to park sideways in front of the trailer. I would have rate it below 0 if I could have. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!!!!!! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
It's hard to know where to start. The staff were unfriendly and seemed annoyed with their jobs. The store/game room/office is filthy. The sites and playground are mud holes if it rains at all. Very little grass, very little shade. Camp ground is directly next to a very busy railway system that runs trains (horns and all) at least every 15 minutes day and night. There is also a small airport in the close vicinity, with a lot of air traffic. Quiet time is not enforced and people are allowed to just party as loud as they want until all hours of the night. This campground charges too much money for what is offered. The experience was so unpleasant we almost packed up and looked for a new place to stay. But, with what we had already paid to stay there, we toughed it out and stayed gone as much as possible. The sites are extremely close together, absolutely no sense of privacy in the least. If your trailer has a slide out, it will be providing shade for your neighbors' picnic table. This camp ground says they welcome pets, and they actually have at least one dog in the office area at all times. We had the pleasure of receiving a complaint notice on our camper door about our Golden Retriever barking. Our dog was being teased by 4 teenagers and he was only reacting in a way dogs do when being tormented. The camp ground employees would not do anything about the teens and actually threatened to have us leave if the barking continued. The grounds are not well kept and the atmosphere was way off base for what seasoned campers are use to. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Lots of teens working the desk, horsing around and joking with each other. Sites fairly close together but adequate. Pool area and bathrooms were clean. Shuttle to Cedar Point was great. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a nice park. Sites are roomy, many with their own shelter/pavilion. Great play area for the kids, as well as a nice pool. Staff was friendly and helpful and the restrooms and showers were clean. Close to Cedar Point and other area attractions. Overall nice camping experience. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
The staff was friendly and helpful and the grounds were need and clean. We found the
restrooms were not well maintained and there were not enough restrooms and showers for the huge amount of people. We also found the campground to be noisy
because of its closeness to the main highway and a regional airport with low flying planes. However, the biggest problem was the close proximity of the
park to very, very busy rail tracks. The combination of all of these was enough to disrupt our sleep during our 4 night stay. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

A nice campground, friendly, helpful staff. Bathrooms and showers were clean, paved roads and sites, shuttle to Cedar Point (charge). Stayed here in 2002 and 2003. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Premium sites along the corn field were small, but pretty nice. The bathrooms and showers were filthy, and often not functioning. Highway noise was an issue, even though we were on the opposite side of the park. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
A better name for this place would be "Sardine City". RV Sites are uncomfortably close together. They recently added several (way too many) cabins taking away what could be a little extra "elbow room" from RV campers. A large percentage of the cabins were empty on Memorial Weekend while the rest of the CG was packed to capacity. This could be because the cabins themselves weren't much more than backyard sheds with bunk-beds in them. Extremely rustic to say the least. That being said, the rest of the CG was relatively well maintained though the roads throughout the park could use repaving and or additional gravel. Before arriving our kids were excited when we told them there was a bunny farm at the CG (per their web site). However their "farm" consisted of 3 full grown rabbits that hid from view most of the time. The pool would've been nice had it been open prior to the weekend. It was being filled as we arrived. Consequently it was way too cold to actually swim in. A little foresight in this regard should be expected especially since Memorial Day weekend is historically busy for them. The shower house looked pretty gross. I believe they only clean it once per day. It could use some serious updating along with additional hand dryers (there was only one for the entire mens shower house) There really isn't much to do/see at the actual CG itself. However it is right in the heart of several area attractions (islands, Cedar Point Amusement park, several water parks, etc.) It's an OK place to sleep and eat, but that's about it. The CG offers an all you can eat pancake breakfast each morning. There is also a McDonalds directly across the street. The staff was helpful and friendly at check-in. The camp store was minimally stocked. So if you forget something, you'll likely have to run up to one of the area stores to get it. Warning: If you like a quiet place to sleep at night this probably isn't the place for you. The CG sits right next to the highway (Route 2). The exit ramp runs about 20 feet away from a row of cabins. If you camp in one of those you'll have the pleasure of hearing all kinds of vehicles speeding by 24hrs per day. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Was a very freindly park... The only problem we had was the last night we stayed here. We had to call the sheriff to report some drunk and disorderly campers who woke up the whole park. There was no staff to report to at 12:30 at night. That being the exception, the staff was very freindly and helpful. Would definately come back here. We camped here in a Tent.
The campground had a very friendly staff. The sites were nice but nothing special, we normally stay on sites with pads. The best part about the stay was the pancake breakfast in the morning. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This campground was awesome. If you plan on spending time at Cedar Point, this is the place to stay. Yes you spend a little bit more but you get the convenience of being right outside the parks. You also get the benefit of entering Cedar Point one hour earlier then anybody else. Huge benefit to get onto those rides that would usually be packed. The pool is excellent and located just off Lake Erie. Staff friendly and helpful. Restrooms were extremely clean and garbage pick up was maintained. Take your kids on a great trip to Cedar Point and stay at Campers Village! We camped here in a Motorhome.
This campground is not a luxury campground and is basically there to allow easy access to Cedar Point and Soak City. As other reviewers have stated, the sites are very close together and many of them back up to the Soak City fence, so there is not much privacy when the water park is open. We had site 123 which backed up to the wave pool area and other than the workers cleaning the area with a leaf blower at 7:00 each morning it didn't bother us. We actually spent most of our time in the park while we were there, so the visitors to Soak City didn't bother us at all either. If you are staying in Camper Village, there are only electric hook-ups and to get water, you have to go to the restroom building. Also, if you reserve a back-in site, try and request one on the outer circle, otherwise other campers will have to walk through your site to get to the restroom building as there aren't any walk through areas for the inner circle sites other than the campsites themselves. I felt bad every time I went to the restroom building as I had to walk through 2 or 3 occupied campsites on the way. The restrooms were cleaned regularly and the staff was very friendly and helpful. It is definitely overpriced for what you get, but when you compare the cost to staying in one of the resort hotels it's definitely a better deal! Also, it was very nice and economical to be able to come back to our camper for a late lunch and a quick rest during the afternoon. We are looking forward to returning next year for another visit to one of our favorite amusement parks. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
We have been coming to Cedar Point for years and this was our first stay in this campground. This campground is what the reviews say it is. We had an electric only site in the older section of the campground. The sites in the older section are very small and crammed together, but they are paved and level with plenty of shade. We fortunately had an end site that was well shaded and a little larger than most sites in the older section. The restrooms and showers were old and fairly clean, but not spotless. The newer section of the campground has full hookup sites that are a little larger and have more updated restrooms and showers. You can’t have bikes or campfires. This is basically a place to sleep and rest when visiting the park. You pay for the convenience of being able to walk into the parks directly from your campsite. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Good park if you want to just have a home base for Cedar Point. Not much to do at the campground. VERY close to highway, and security wasn't great. Sites were a bit tight. Camp store VERY sparse, and it's a drive to a WalMart or Meijer to get supplies. As I said, good "base camp" if you plan to spend much of your day away from camp. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We have been coming to Cedar Point for many years, but this is the first year in a RV. If your site is too close to the park the noise from the coasters is quite loud. But if you love roller coasters this is the place for you. No open fires are allowed at your site. They have swimming pools and access to the beach, and we saw some guys fishing off the pier. We will be back next year. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice campground, great perks. Close to the park and early entry to Cedar Point. We like staying here because of the convience. You and take a break from the park, eat lunch and cool down before heading back out for more fun. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We got a pull through site which gave us much more room. Rained the whole day & they were nice about letting us transfer our time to another stay. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
The newer area of Lighthouse Point has a new bath house and it was in great shape. Parking on the cement pad was a breeze and worked out great for the two nights we were there. The 'camper village' one was cleaner this year than last. I had the same "SLOW" check-in procedure and lost valuable "line waiting" time in the park. If my family does this again, I will arrive early in the morning, register and park the rig in the lot until check-in time. The extra cost for 'tickets' was a waste. We entered an hour early and nothing was running with the start up maintenance just getting under way. I would do it again but plan differently! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Great family campground. Large heated pool with hot tub. Campground store stocked with basics. One thing we noticed was the bathrooms were not very clean. They need to be cleaned more frequently. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Sites shaded, but on the small size but understandable due to the space available. Water is available at bathhouse in middle of circle but water is on the wrong side of the trailer if you pull in correct direction. Wonderful being within walking distance of Cedar Point and getting in an hour early and getting a 20 minute wait for the Maverick one day and Millennium Force the second. Price is expensive but the one day we ate at the park, we spent 100 dollars between lunch and dinner for five people and spending zero the second day as we ate at the trailer. Can use pool at lighthouse point but is a walk from Camper Village. Staff is friendly but check in can take a while and would recommend getting there early in the afternoon. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We spent 3 nights in an "electric only" site here while we visited Cedar Point Amusement Park. I thought, "Wow, $60 per night for electric only"? But in retrospect it was worth it for the convenience in accessing the park and early ride times. My only complaint is that the staff were not the friendliest - we were rushed thru at check-in and no one told us where to fill our fresh water. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Every year we debate on whether its worth the price to stay here ($60 for electric only!) but convenience always wins. Our site this year was in the back by the lake and the mayflies were terrible! The restrooms were as clean as could be considering it was prime mayfly time. There were 6 of us so the price evened out but I would not stay here if it were just the 2 of us. If you are spending several days at CP and SC this is the place for you. If you are only visiting CP for one day you may want to look elsewhere. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Excellent for access to Cedar Point, but they're about to chase us away as the price increases every year. There are campgrounds right outside of Cedar Point that are as good and are much less. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very friendly staff, clean & level sites, very large pull through sites, pools and hot tubs nice after a long day at the park, shuttle buses take you right to the gate. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Great place to camp and go to the park. Sites are tight in the older section and do not have water but being within walking distance of the front gate to the park is worth it. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is really a clean campground. A little pricey, but check for a package deal and it helps. Also remember that it saves you from paying parking fees at the park. It is really nice to camp right under the coasters. Easy access, and campground guests get to go into the park an hour early. Will stay here again, kids will love it. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

The $55 per night is for electric only, full hook-up is $72. Way over priced. Disney's Fort Wilderness is not that much! The shower curtains had green mold all over them. It took a phone call in the morning and then a personal appearance that evening to complain at the front desk to get them cleaned. The bathroom stalls constantly had paper towels all over the floor. The sites are level and while not huge, you did have some room between you and your neighbor. Check out is 1:00pm, we didn't check in until 7:30pm and there was still garbage (bones from chicken wings and beer bottle caps) from the previous campers on the site. The gnats were a huge problem - swarms af them everywhere. Easy access to Cedar Point is the only thing going for this park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We were in the newer, full hook-up section of Camper Village which extends into the Lighthouse Point (camper-cabin) area. Top-notch resort-type campground, extremely clean, well-kept, and landscaped. Uniformed, polite staff on duty until after 11pm and campstore open until 1 am. They even clean the grills every day! No campfires allowed. We walked 5-10 minutes to the waterpark and theme park, but shuttle-service is constant. Not a lot of shade in this newer section. I wouldn't do it in the summer without A/C. Our site backed-up to the road, so we had a LOT of people walking through our site (what's up with that, anyway? Don't folks know you're just not supposed to do that??). Some full hook-ups are literally UNDER the wooden roller-coasters which runs until close to midnight. If we were to stay there again, I'd get one of the pull-through sites, which are in their own section, very long, closer to the pool. All sites have level concrete pads AND large faux-slate patios. Hookup water was colorless/odorless. Campground pool was large by campground standards, adjacent was a large fountain/waterworks-valve area with cascading water, pool was always life-guarded. Just past the pool area is a large pier going out into Lake Erie. We saw beautiful sunsets and huge ships just a couple hundred yards from shore coming into Sandusky Bay - awesome!! The nearby Soak City water park has waist-deep adults-only pool with a well-staffed swim-up bar. Thought I died and went to Heaven. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
I have to rate this low because of the reservation system. We reserved a full hook up site only to arrive and have them tell us that we did not. After showing proof that we had, we ended up having to move 3 times before they got us on the right site. We camped here in a Motorhome.
My FAVORITE park on a cross country excursion and the last one before returning home. CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN, friendly, beautiful large pull thru's (if you can get them) great electric, great scenery, pool, dock, Amusement Park. I cannot say enough about this park. We called a day ahead and they happened to have a cancellation on a premium pull thru site so we were lucky. I plan on staying again and making reservations for several nights. A good park even without the amusement park. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is the nicest place we have ever been to. The parks are fantastic. It was like staying in our driveway at home with our camper. Beware of the mayflies they were late this year and came to visit us on our second day. Other then that this place was great!!!!!!!!! We loved it and can't eait to go back. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We stayed at Camper Village in the newer section with full hook ups. We stayed 3 nights at the first of June. It is expensive $66 a night with full hookups, but worth it for the convenience. Cedar Point is pretty isolated from the town of Sandusky it takes a good 30 minutes to get off the island, go into town and find something to eat or a grocery store and the same to get back so forget about leaving for lunch unless you want to lose 1-2 hours. It is a well landscaped, clean campground. Every site has their own trash can emptied daily; they clean your ashes out of your grill daily if you BBQ. The best part of it for us was the ability to get up eat breakfast, walk into the entrance an hour early before park opens to the general public, get the big rides out of the way before it gets crowded, then go back to trailer eat lunch, then change into swimming attire and go to the water park which is even closer maybe 100 yds, the water park is really nice and all of it is heated alot. I wasn't expecting warm water in early June. Then after several hours go back to the trailer eat dinner, change clothes, and go back to Cedar Point for the remainder of the evening. Between the money I saved for meals for 5 of us at the park, and the daily parking fee of $10 that I would have had to pay if I stayed elsewhere, and the convenience it was well worth it to me, especially if you get the 2 Day Ride and Slide like we did. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This place was the greatest!!!!! Disney would roll over in his grave if he saw this place. Can't wait to go back with the wife and kids and dogs. LOVED IT! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is one of the nicest RV parks that I have been to. The campgrounds are spotless.
The staff has a can-do attitude. The new sites for 2004 are large, about an 80 -85 foot in length concert pad. The park is well patrolled with Cedar Point's own police force. When you stay in the RV-park, you get to enter the amusement park at 9 AM, 1 hour prior to the general public. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed in the original area of the campground, where there are electric only sites. The sites are close together and the landscaping is minimal. Updates are needed in this section. I'm very surprised at these comments--I think people are factoring the fun from the amusement park, which is fun! It is noisy, especially on the weekends as the roller coasters run late. Regardless, we had fun. I recommend the two day pass with water park included. That is very close to the campground and it is well done. All in all, we might have saved money by camping, as silly as that seems. We ate all our meals in the camper or on the picnic table and drank all our drinks there. That saved us lots of money. Besides, the food served at CP is not very good or healthy. It was fun to escape from CP to the camper. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

This place was awesome. Right at the theme park and water park. Plus, had a nice pool for the kids. Trash was constantly being picked up by camp personnel. Large sites. This place was great! We're going back next year for a week! We camped here in a camper.
This lives up to its name as a Resort. If you love roller coasters and such you will love this campground. We did not use the amusement park since it was cold and rainy. Opting instead for a lovely drive along the lake. The campground is well manicured and very clean. We had a tire problem and the Resort maintenance came and helped us - wow, I had to twist his arm to give him a tip. 2 complaints would be that it is loud due to the roller coasters, and you can not get a lake site since they have cabins all along the lake front We camped here in a Motorhome.
Great location if you are spending the day at Cedar Point. Free shuttles or a 5-10 minute walk across the parking lot to the back entrance to the park. The pool was open, even in October. Eveything is paved and level. The back- in sites in the newer section seemed larger, though louder due to being closer to the main road and rollercoasters. Cute cabin and cottage rental available for friends traveling without rvs. It was very nice to be able to come back to the motorhome after 14 hours at the park while everyone else was stuck in traffic trying to leave at the end of the night. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Extremely clean CG right at the base of the roller coasters at Cedar Point. Very sterile looking though - not like a normal CG more of a resort. We were at site 238 which was next to “Mean Streak” roller coaster. Good site but it was still a long walk to the park. If you go, look to stay in sites 284-321. This is a little closer to the park. We went to a bath house close to the swimming pool, to shower one morning, and the showers were terrible. They were dirty, and the drains were blocked so you showered in a couple inches of water. There is another very modern bathhouse in section 284-321. Needless to say, we showered there from that point on. Great long cement pads at each site that could fit a camper and truck. Fantastic amusement park. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
A very nice RV resort. A little noisy but thats due to the proximity to the roller coasters in the park. Be prepared to wait in a long line to check in. If you get there early and want to park and go to the amusement park the overflow lot fills up fast and I got mildly hassled by an attendant at the lot across the street for the Cedar Point water park. We camped here in a Motorhome.
What a great stay, close to all the rides, able to walk the beach, swim, and a friendly staff. What more can you ask for. We already booked next year. Can't wait. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
It is a resort campground so it is expensive. The park is laid out well in the space available. We were disappointed in the lack of cleanliness in the bathrooms. Can't beat it for the easy access to the amusement park but the shuttle vans need to be replaced. They appear to be many years old and in need of repairs. Also would not expect a tip jar for drivers for an included service. Bottom line is there is room for improvement but if we visit Cedar Point Amusement Park in the future, we will stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This CG is good for what it is- a place to stay while doing the park and soak city. As for a "normal" CG it is way off. First and foremost your not allowed to ride your bike!! Come on! I've been to many CG and have yet to see a problem caused by a bike rider! The bathrooms were a mess at all times! Staff were business friendly only. English was a major problem at CG and park. Quiet time was fine and the camping area was fine. Good electric and water pressure. Shuttle vans were a big plus. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Immaculate RV Park perfect for those who want to maximize their stay at Cedar Point or Soak City. Awesome pull thru sites with full hookups and picnic table, but no campfires allowed. Thrilling roller coaster noise gently floods your campsite. Convienient shuttle to park entrance or walk for about 5 minutes across a parking lot and you are through the gates! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very nice campground right next to the park. Only draw back is the price. Beauitful, well maintained, level sites. Nice pool. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We paid $204.00 for two nights. This was for a pull through site, full hook ups, also included 4 tickets for Friday night and 2 tickets for Saturday. It was great to be in the shadow of the coasters. The price seems a bit steep until you look at the tickets to the park you get also. If you go here get one of the package deals from them on the web site. The only drawback was the bathrooms were a bit on the messy side. They could have been a bit cleaner to get a "10" from me. We camped here in a Motorhome.
What a great campground, very nice staff, very clean site with Concrete pads! You get in 1 hour early into the park. They have package deals for both parks and camping. We camped here in a Motorhome.
A bit pricy unless you stay as part of a package deal, then it's pretty reasonable. The sites are a little close together. Not quite sardine like, but closer than we prefer. We were on the end of a row and there was no one on the other side so it wasn't too bad. Plus we spent most of our time in the amusment park. It was great not having to get a locker or drive to another location at the end of long day from walking and standing in lines. My only real nit about it are the park maps. The one for the campground itself is OK, but it doesn't tell you where the restraunts and other things in the resort are nor the park entrances. The map for Cedar Point itself is cartoon like and hard to understand. This doesn't sound like a big deal, but when you're trying to find out how to get to an onsite restraunt, it's annoying. I would still highly recommend staying there. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We camped here in August, 2003. Wonderful campground. Large pull thru sites on concrete pad (70'). Each site separated with landscaping and each site has a slate patio with small charcoal grill. Each morning staff would clean out grill and also dust the picnic tables for spiders etc. My children thought they had gone to heaven being able to camp literally under the roller coasters. We were able to sit at our campsite and watch them all, anticipating the fun to come. Staying here is considered to be onsite by Cedar Point and entitles you to resort priviledges. Only downside, by the end of 5 day stretch, mom and dad had enough of "roller coaster noise". We are definately adding Cedar Point to our coaster park circuit and will be back again to Lighthouse Point. Camped in a travel trailer (32'). We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The voltage at our site was less than 100 VAC, it should be 115 minimum. This was with just the TV operating. Went to the office and the sent a fellow out with his voltmeter. He did not think it was that big a problem, I explained that it is a VERY big problem. I found that the voltage on the site next to us was 114 VAC and it was not rented so I plugged in there. They have some serious power issues at this campground. The restrooms and showers were excellent. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was a clean, well-taken-care-of campground. The camp sites are fairly roomy, with lots of mature trees. The office people were friendly and helpful. When I informed them that someone had left a mess in the restroom, it was taken care of very quickly. The store is not very complete - just the basics. The campground has a very nice-sized, clean pool. We had a very strong cell phone signal at the campground. This campground is a good base for going to downtown Sandusky, Cedar Point, Catawba, Marblehead, Put-in-Bay, and Kelly's Island. We enjoyed our 4 night stay very much, and we would definitely stay at Crystal Rock Campground again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

No scheduled activities. Playground for little kids was pathetic. Close to Cedar point and Lake Erie. Camp store had very little to offer. Only good if you plan on spending your entire day off camp property. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We chose this campground to save money over the more expensive parks located closer to Cedar Point (20 minutes drive). It's a good place to stay if most of your time will be spent at the amusement park. Bathrooms were clean most of the time, there's a small pool and playground, and laundry facilities. Very limited grocery items and supplies in office with no store nearby. Sites are mostly open with shade trees, some are wooded. Limited number of pull-thru sites with full hookups. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
