    If you have kids, this place is an amazing option. So many activities, giant jump pillow, pond with giant inflatable slide, kayaking, pool, fishing, gaga ball- the kids were busy morning to night. I appreciated coin laundry, the proximity to I -90 (this was a very easy drive from Buffalo, NY.) It is very dog-friendly, some sites also have dog runs, and there is a large dog park. We stayed in a "deluxe cabin", fortunately family was nearby at a back-in site with their trailer. The pictures were taken on our way out, so please note the double bed was made when we arrived, the bunks had no sheets on them. Linens (sheets, pillows, towels) were provided in the room; I tend to leave things disheveled because I hate leaving them on the floor, but I don't want to make the bed neatly and have it inadvertently left for the next guest.. There is not a stove/oven/cooktop in this cabin. If it's pouring, like it was during much of our stay, be sure to plan your meals elsewhere, otherwise cook in the microwave and eat on the beds. We ate at our family's trailer, and that worked out. I'm not sure what we would have done if we didn't have the option. This particular cabin has a deck outside, the grill is not covered, and neither is the table. What you see in the photos is what you get, it's like a small motel room with a mini fridge, microwave, and a coffee maker. I did have to sweep when we arrived, but it was mostly rogue dog hair and sand on the floor. I had to laugh, there's a sign above the sink threatening to charge you extra if you don't leave the room as you found it. We didn't bring our dog, so we couldn't leave it the way we found it! Either way, it's camping, it will ever be as clean as home. We met up here with family from Michigan, so this was about half way for both of us. Overall we really enjoyed this place. We'd definitely camp here again if we have another cabin option or a trailer.

    This is the nicest campground I have ever stayed at. It's beautiful, clean and just plain charming. The staff was really friendly. The owners are onsite and working from sunup to sundown. We stayed in the smaller deluxe cabin that slept 5. It was spotlessly clean. I usually bring the following to rentals but they were provided here: linens, blankets, pillows, rug by front door, coffee filters, eating utensils, serving spoon, pancake flipper, paring knife, plates, drinking glasses, coffee mugs, can opener, napkins, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, towels (bath, hand & dish), washcloths, toilet paper, dish soap, broom, dust pan. We took our dog and everybody was good about keeping their dogs on leashes or confined. The dog play areas were clean and well kept up. On Saturday they organize activities like nature art, scavenger hunt, tractor "train ride" which my kids liked. We rented a golf cart for our stay. which was reasonably priced & lots of fun (tip: reserve before you go). We were really impressed with the whole place & would definitely go back.

    Incredible KOA! We unfortunately only got to stay for one night as we were headed somewhere else but would Highly recommend this location and will go out of our way to stay here again in the future. Staff was super friendly and the sites were clean.

    Willow Lake Campground - 1 of three trailers, not campers

    I am extremely disappointed with the experience at this campground. Both interactions with the…read moreoffice staff was met with rudeness and a dismissive attitude. On our most recent overnight stay, we were one of only three occupied spaces in the entire campground. When we returned from a day out with our granddaughter, we found four large trailers filled with groups of adult men placed just feet from our camper. With dozens of empty spaces available, this placement was completely unnecessary and inconsiderate. The booking process specifically asks how many people will be on site, yet no effort was made to inform us that such large groups would be packed in so close. Each trailer,(not camper) contained at least five men, and the resulting noise and disruption ruined what should have been a quiet family stay. These men kept wondering around our campsite and occupying empty campsite picnic tables all around us due to the size of their group. When we voiced our concerns, the response from the office was unprofessional and dismissive -- essentially a "too bad, so sad" attitude. We felt so uncomfortable and unsafe that we packed up and left early. This complete lack of regard for guests' comfort and experience is unacceptable.

    It is so beautiful there and campground is doing some really nice upgrades in the coming year…read more Wineries around here are not to far and Geneva on the lake is beautiful.

    Such a beautiful place, especially now in the fall. I only had a VERY quick visit, but I can tell…read morethat there are TONS of things to do here, and just a walk on the beach alone worked WONDERS for my road trip weary soul. Ohio has recently won awards for its state parks, and this is yet another jewel in its crown!! Scenic trails, ample picnic areas, clean facilities, a GORGEOUS view of the lake... 1000% worth a visit!! Hope to be back again in the warmer months!! Enjoy!!

    Beach review only,…read more We live about 15min from GOTL State Park. This is our go to beach a bunch of times during the summer. Its not very crowded and there are tons of things to do around the area after the beach. Lets start with cons: -Beach is rocky towards the water, sand is nicer the further back you sit. If youre looking for Fairport Harbor raked beach sand, this is not for you. -Water is rocky for about 20' or so out, then turns into sand. -Foot wash was not working, however it has worked in the past. -No showers, but do offer a changing area. -No breakwall, so occasional driftwood shows up, this could be a good thing or bad thing depending how you view it The Pros -Never crowded like the other beaches around -Water is cleaner than other beaches around -Bike and walkable, and a grassy area up top for family parties -Sand walkway to help the Dads wheeling a wagon full of kid toys, chairs, umbrelllas, while the wife holds her stanley cup in one hand and her beach tote in the other. -5min from GOTL -Everyone seems to follow the rules, never an issue there. Great spot with tons of stuff to do around the area. Its like a mini vacation!
