After a bad experience two years ago I thought I'd give this campground another chance- what a…read moremistake. My reservation was for one night and it was so peaceful I extended another night, peaceful it was not. The loud music began and I called the office for someone to come silence them. After half an hour I called back and was told there wasn't anyone to respond. I then told the girl (Lindy or Lindsey) to refund me for the night I was going to pull out. She wanted to charge me $53 for a cancellation fee on a $49 charge. The call got ugly and I ended up calling the rangers myself since she was incapable of making the call. I will never come back here again.

We live nearby and never really thought about grabbing breakfast at the park--but wow, we're so…read moreglad we finally did! Tomlinson Run State Park offers breakfast at the campground on Saturdays from 8am-12pm, Memorial Day through Labor Day, and it's truly a hidden gem. The food was absolutely delicious--hot, fresh, and made with care. What's even better? It's all prepared by amazing volunteers, and every dollar goes right back into supporting the park. You can really feel the community pride in every bite. We'll definitely be back again before the season ends. If you're local (or even just passing through), make the stop. It's a great way to kick off a Saturday morning surrounded by nature and good people.

First time visiting this park. It is on the small side compared to other WV State Parks. This means…read morethat it is faster to get to where you are going in the park (no long road in). As you enter the park there is a road to the right that takes you to the campground (BTW, I have rated the campground separately under Campground at Tomlinson Run State Park). As you drive forward you will pass the Park Superintendent's house (on the right). Behind the house is a tiny building that serves at the park HQ. This is where you need to go if you want to stamp your VIPP card. Not obvious and you feel like you trespassing on the residence there but just drive past and then to your right and find the stamp. Along this road on the left you will find a picnic area and shortly after you will come to the edge of a small lake (on the left). On the right is the entrance to a road the winds up and around to the top of a hill (through the woods). There are two picnic areas. The first is off to the left before really heading up the hill. This one was buggy when I was there. At the top of the hill there is a parking lot and picnic areas. Nice spot! The road that goes through the park continues onward and then there is a parking area on the right above the lake. At the lake's edge are paddle boat rentals. If you continue on the road straight on the road you will end up exiting the park.

Conotton Creek Trail is a staple! It's 11.4 miles of a fully paved path that is great for biking,…read morewalking, or running. This is a great trail to view some foliage and wildlife. There are plenty of birds, ducks, geese, and turtles. If you're lucky you may see a fox or even a mink like I did today! You'll also pass through a couple of small towns if you want to make a quick detour or see some interesting architecture. The trail itself if very well kept and clean. The only reason I hesitate to give the trail five stars is its lack of signage and porta-potty cleanliness. If you're from the area it may be difficult to find the trailheads. There are a few porta-potties along the route which is great, but they are pretty old and dingy. All in all, Conotton Creek Trail is a great opportunity within the community to get some fresh air and exercise!

We parked in Scio, but it wasn't too clear where we should park as nothing was labeled so we just parked next to a picnic shelter in a gravel lot. We walked the trail for a bit, was very peaceful and pretty. Reminds me of the towpath at home. If I lived nearby I would walk it all the time. We started in a city, so we werent completely immersed in nature, but I am positive that you would be if you went just a little bit further than we did. There are porta potties and picnic tables along the way. I recommend if you are in the area and want to take a stroll or take a jog.

I hadn't been aware of this facility before, and was looking for something to do on Saturday while…read moreI was in town with my two young children. What a find! We'll absolutely be back. The Exploration Gateway is off of 12th St and right on Sippo Lake. They have a nature center, gift shop, several meeting rooms where they host special events, and a branch of the Stark County Library. There are several short trails branching off from the building and parking lots, at least some of which are stroller friendly. There is also a small playground.

There are boulders to climb, outdoor musical instruments to play, a treehouse to play pretend in (and is wheelchair accessible!), a merry-go-round, swings, a traditional playground structure with slides, and lots more. The playground area is lined with wood chips. There is also lots of space to run around, and lots of trees. Like the name of the park suggests, this is a very sensory-friendly park, and there are nature stations set up all around where you can use your senses to explore. There is also a short, paved trail that goes around the park, which is wide and smooth enough for strollers and wheelchairs. The trail goes by a creek, which is nice. As of right now, this is the only sensory-friendly park in the state of Ohio! It's definitely worth a visit.

This is a really neat and wonderfully inclusive park. This features a short, paved path that is…read morewheelchair and walker accessible. Along the path are a variety of interactive stations that are also designed to be accessible. If you start near the entry sign, you'll find a Little Free Library, which, on our recent visit, was loaded with a lot of great kids options. Just ahead is a variety of benches and a little music garden, featuring musical instruments that can be played, and you can also interact with the Rough Bark Tactile Display to learn more about different tree barks. A little further down are the cutest animal looking instruments that can also be used. As you continue down the path, you find a swingset with a variety of swings that include both traditional and accessible options. There's a nice little shaded bench area with information about the creek, Fetter's Run, that can be seen from the location. As you proceed along, a very exciting find is the Treehouse, which is built within the forest trees as opposed to up in one, which allows a wheelchair ramp to make it accessible. This overlooks the creek and has things to explore, like neat nature art and a second floor (not accessible) with a fire pole. At the end of the path is a shelter house with picnic tables and nearby grills. Most, if not all, of the signage included Braille translations, as well. There is a large parking lot here, but I do note that this is located behind a school, so I'm not sure how that would affect parking for a visit during a school day.

The property is massive, with wide open landscapes and views that stretch far across the hills…read more Waking up in the morning and looking out over the terrain was one of the highlights of the trip. It almost feels like stepping into another environment entirely, especially knowing the area is dedicated to wildlife conservation. Our campsite was quiet and well spaced out, which made it easy to enjoy the surroundings without constant noise from nearby groups. At night, the sky was incredibly clear, and the lack of city lights made stargazing surprisingly good. Facilities were simple but adequate, which fits the outdoor-focused setting. Everything we needed was available, and the grounds were kept in good condition. The staff we encountered were welcoming and clearly proud of the property, offering helpful guidance about the area. Camping at The Wilds is more than just pitching a tent--it's an opportunity to spend time in a unique natural environment that feels both peaceful and expansive. It's a great destination if you're looking for something a little different from the usual campground experience.
