A Lesson From the Trail

Hueston Woods State Park

Contact:

Route 1

College Corner, OH 45003

(513) 523-1060 Campground (seasonal)

Description:

This state park is a great place for family camping.  It has it all!  There are over ten miles of SUPER bike trails, there are over six miles of rarely used bridal trails to be hiked, there is a beautiful lake, and the best wildlife center in the state complete with a live cougar and full raptor center.  The camp grounds are split into two separate areas, kar kamping and motor homes.  Never, and I mean NEVER camp in the motor home part as it is a little city of about 1,200 on the weekends.  The primitive camping area in Walnut Grove is great.  There is plenty of room and it is kept very clean and quiet.  It can get a bit busy on the big holiday weekends though.  While this park doesn't really fit the criteria for this section it is so nice I wanted to throw it in.
