Barkcamp State Park, near Cambridge, OH

No one has submitted a "recent" review for BarkCamp so here is my input. Have been camping for years and consider this camp exceptional for Ohio. Great having electric, many upgrades have been made in the past 3 years, new tie lines for all the sites; two water sources; still pit toilets, but you are camping. The OHC has built a beautiful pavillion on top of the hill which is great if you have a large crowd. Weekends you are going to have a full camp for the most part, we can go during the week and have either no one else there maybe one or two but that is it. The whole area of Belmont has grown considerably with the fracking many more business's are there now; we have taken friends to this camp and they love it also. Trails are normally well kept thanks to the OHC; if there were no challenge why bother going.

Had not ridden these trails this year, was shocked to see the former parking lot at the stables fenced off for pasture; no signs have been posted for day riders now to park at the Meadow's Drive facility. OHC has it posted that the pasture parking was too muddy for parking. Have been told a private entity now owns the stables; barn manager is not a people person; was absolutely no help in giving new information we found out from another rider on the trail (she was rude to him also; for letting his trailer tire get on her grass). Getting to the new parking area N on 21 to 82 turn right go about 1/4 mile and turn right onto Chippewa Creek Drive a couple of blocks to Meadows Drive turn right again the parking lot is on the left, the sign is small watch for the P. You are able to connect to the entire trail system from this location.
