Lake Erie camp grounds in Ohio

We are going to Ohio the 1st week of October for a wedding and a reunion. I was hoping someone could recommend a state park close to Lake Erie. The state park website list quite a few. Location to a particular city doesn't matter. we want 30 amp service, water would be nice but not absolutely necessary. Beautiful scenery is a must! Thanks Bob

    You might want to check out Camp Perry (west of Port Clinton) a National Guard Facility open to the public...4 years they didn't permit pets....rest of the descripton was great.

    We were at Geneva State Park during Memorial Day and will be back for the Labor Day weekend. Had a great time on the bike trail and caught my biggest walleye to date on that trip.

    Without more details, it's hard to tell where you're looking. But we've been to Geneva--on-the-lake (Geneva State Park) North-East corner of the state, between Cleveland and the Penn-Ohio boarder and absolutely loved it. The town is awesome too.
