You can fish from the pier or the edge of the lake. Just throw a line in!!!! There are paddle boats, a clubhouse, boat dock, and easy pathways for walking. Parking was close and seemed plentiful.

There are also restrooms in restaurants/businesses in downtown Canal Fulton. This trailhead, along with the one at Lock 4, are good overflow/less busy parking options from St. Helena Park.

Very large campground!…read more I highly recommend bringing bikes or renting a golf cart if staying here. We booked in advance on the online system. It can be a bit confusing because they want you to pay extra for a specific site. The campgrounds prices are on the higher end and more than we traditionally pay but we like to do at least one camping splurge each year. We ended up getting site 340 at check in. It was along the river which was great bc my kids enjoyed playing in it. However so did everyone else in the campground so our space didn't have a lot of privacy. Lots of people cutting through it to go to the river. They had several events throughout the weekend. We decided to try the Easter egg hunt on Saturday. It was a big disappointment. Even though we showed up at starting time the eggs were already gone and lots of empty handed kids. I think they laid the eggs out early and kids came early and picked it up. They had a cool indoor rec area for the kids. We did a craft that the kids enjoyed and went back after the water park but it closes at 7 so the timing didn't work out. Even though they said they would be open the next day we rode by several times and it was closed on Sunday. The water park was nice. Although crowded the kids enjoyed the pool and water playground. They also had wibits for adults and kids. Included is also kayaking or paddleboarding but there were not many paddles to use. The campground also has put putt, a bounce pad, volleyball, covered basketball court, playgrounds, restaurants, and cornhole. I recommend bringing your own life jacket. Although no real listed trails there are lots of areas to hike. There are only 2 shower houses in the campground so showering was a challenge getting a stall and having hot water. 2 dump stations if your don't have a hook up at your site. Everyone had a great time!

Just got back from a weekend tent camping trip here. Communication leading up to our stay was…read moregreat. However, that was the only good part. Family friendly? Hardly. Our campsite was right next to cabins. We heard f-bombs and rap music talking about sex and drugs all night- which was great exposure for my toddlers (NOT!). After searching ridiculously hard for a park security phone number, I was finally able to submit a noise complaint. The guard told the perpetrators we were the ones who made the complaint so they harassed us all weekend. We had people walking thru our campsite all the time. The bath house stayed dirty with trash on the floor, dirty toilets and dirty shower stalls. The cleaning crew came thru but you couldn't tell what they did because everything was still a mess. The app is only half way functional and is full of links to 404 pages and old phone numbers. The Adventure Park was the best part of the stay. The lake, splash pad and water playground were awesome! But it was full of entitled, rude guests. There were plenty of life guards to patrol the water but not much staff for anything else. On Sunday, we went to the Rec Center for activities with a bear. They no-showed for 3 activities. We waited nearly 90 minutes and saw no sign of people in the Rec Center. We talked with the staff in John O's and they tried to help us, but were not successful. This was our second and last time staying with a Jellystone campground. We stayed at Mammoth Cave and had a very similar experience. I'd rather stay at a state park and only pay a fraction of the cost. The campground is not all that close to town, so I hope you're able to pack in what you need! Our campsite was a complete after thought. They had just mowed and weed eated and left bunches of grass and tall weeds all over the ground. And the ground was saturated from the water spigot that constantly leaked. We had huge rut from the lawn mower in our site and that stayed soggy from said water spigot. There was no guidance on how to contact park staff nor for check out. When we left, there was nobody at the check-in station, so I left my mirror tag on the desk and left because I got tired of waiting around. Huge let down. I found old episodes of Yogi and HB Friends to amp up my toddlers and get them excited for the trip. We were all excited for the trip and it was a total bust of a stay.

They had two courts going at once and ample seating to watch your child do what they love. Vending machines and a make shift concession area with somewhat limited options made for a good experience.

Nice little amenity for those who live in that area to have access to.

When we arrived we were treated poorly, disrespected, and then eventually told to leave. We were being completely respectful and were not in anyone's way. But we were told we had "6 complaints about us" and also that our outfits were inappropriate (we had on a basketball jersey and basketball shorts.) It was clearly a racial issue, and that was very obvious. Very sad that we had to deal with being treated that way at a recreational center.
