First time camping in hocking hills and the site checked all the boxes i was looking for. Like the…read morewebsite says it is very close to the state park and is across the street from some adjacent hikes so driving wont be a hassle. The camp is smaller than you would imagine from the website but the majority of sites on the grounds give you the amenities you would need, there is potable water sites sprinkled through the grounds as well as outhouses for men and women across the sites. The main part i enjoyed was how few other campers i saw i have heard that the main state park campground can get crowded but palmerosa does not have that problem at all, when i arrived i was even given the opportunity to swap to a more preferred site upon seeing the options in person (although i cant say this is a ground rule). Speaking to that the staff was wonderful we met one nice gentleman who accommodated us with our questions and equipment and was all around helpful and friendly. Palmerosa also allows horses which i cant speak much to as i didnt do that but we saw one group with two horses and those horses looked happy and the people taking care of them looked satisfied. In my opinion palmerosa is the perfect spot for someone who wants tread the line on primitive camping while its out of the way and secluded but close enough to attractions and town for you to not be far from fun. Thanks for an amazing trip

You are almost relegated to smaller coves as you try to escape the waves caused by power boats. Not at Lake Hope State Park as boaters are restricted to electric motors only. My wife is all about the well maintained mountain bike trails. We were both all about the small camping pads and many non electric sites. This meant that as tent campers we were not back to back with massive RVs. And our dog was all about all of it, especially since a state park means that he gets to hang out with his pack!  On the down side, there was only one water spigot, one near the check in, that was marked as potable. Perhaps the others throughout the campground are and are not marked. However, we chose to only get water from that spigot. The spigot that was closest to our campsite was way too close to the pit toilet for me to feel comfortable drinking without filtering/boiling.  While we didn't get the chance to actually take our boats off the car, thanks to thunderstorms, we did drive around and find some spots that would work perfectly as put ins. There's a space just off the main road that would work for those who are kayaking, canoeing, or SUPing. The drive to and from LHSP was beautiful, with the visual elevation changes. I loved that it was almost in the HHills area but lacked all the folks (and the restrictions on dogs)! Lake Hope State Park is a place that we will hands down visit again. Although, our first visit there was filled with thunderstorms- we managed to stay dry and camped anyway!

Recently spent a week here when visiting Hocking Hills State Park…read more This is the best campground I have ever experienced. The sites are large with beautiful views, and the entire campground is very clean and well kept. The shower rooms are wonderful: private and very clean. Definitely the best showers I have ever seen at a campground. The showers are like hotel showers! There are RV sites, tent sites, and also cabins available. The sites and amenities are much nicer here than the nearby state park campgrounds. It is an easy drive to the state park, to the marina, and also a beach just a mile down the road. It was very quiet at night. A peaceful camping experience. A Walmart is only a mile away, and a great Mexican restaurant is across the street. This is a perfect location and we will definitely stay here the next time we are visiting Hocking Hills. Highly recommended!

Pros: *The cabin came equipped with everything we needed - towels, washclothes, dish soap, cooking utensils, bedding, etc. *Cabin was clean and smelled great when we arrived. *Plenty of room for our group of 7. *No neighbors - our cabin was on it's own plot of land and the nearest neighbor was at least a mile away. It was quiet and we didn't have to worry about the kids playing outdoors. *Hot tub! We chose this cabin in part because it offered a hot tub and we were not disappointed. Their hot tub was modern and wonderful and we used it every night we were there. *Beds were super comfy and bedding was nice and clean-smelling. *Small water feature in the backyard had live frogs and our children had a blast watching them! *Upstairs and downstairs patio - upstairs patio was directly off the living room and had a sturdy railing going all the way around so the kids could be out there blowing bubbles or playing without our having to worry about them. *Great fire pit. *Grounds were very nice and well-kept. View off the back patio was fantastic! Cons: *No bathroom on main floor. You have to go up or down to use the bathroom. This was an issue for us since we had a 2-year-old in our group that had to be walked to and from the bathroom. *Cabin does show it's age a bit. Overall, the cabin was very nice but it could use some updating. One of the windowsills downstairs was covered in some sort of mold and several of the patio chairs (and a recliner in the living room) were broken or in need of repair. The fridge had a note telling us not to overload with items or it would stop working which seemed a little strange. *The stairs were an issue for us as the stairs leading upstairs were open slat and our little girls were fearful when ascending. The stairs leading downstairs were wide open and we were constantly watching out for the 2-year-old so she wouldn't inadvertently fall down. If you're nearby, check out the following attractions: Hocking Hills Adventures (http://www.hockinghillscanoeing.com/) - we went canoeing there and it was great! If you haven't canoed before, please ask the staff for some pointers. They're personable and friendly! Hocking Hills Market (http://www.hockinghillsmarket.com/) - Fantastic little shopping spot we discovered. Full of fun and funky shops and they have a small miniature golf course for the kids in your group. Pizza Crossing (http://www.pizzacrossing.com/) - Great pizza place suggested by the locals and we weren't disappointed! Just down the street from canoeing so we canoed and then called to order and picked up on our way back to our cabin.

The owners provided fire wood and had recently purchased a hot tub so we were the first ones to use it (yesssss!). We went with a group so half stayed upstairs while we stayed downstairs. The cabins are separated so I was a bit of a drag walking up a hill to visit friends but also nice to keep our privacy. The cabins are far from the main house so we were able to play music without being overly cautious. The only downfall was the driveway up. It consists of those white rocks so you have to rev your engine to go up the hill toward the cabin without getting stuck (which happened to our friend). All in all, this was a great experience and was only a 20 minute drive to Hocking Hills State Park, a must see. Jerry and Wendy are excellent hosts!
