Hello, this is 22 acres of no frills undeveloped land with beautiful Arcola Creek that runs into Lake Erie. There's room for an RV or can pitch a tent. Enjoy Arcola Creek Estuary a mile away, bird watching, multiple wineries, covered bridges, Geneva on the Lake or enjoy all day by the creek. There is a perfect spot with a fire pit. (Firewood provided-please leave some for the next camper if early in the week.) There are rough trails in the back where the land was logged. There is not a bridge currently but can be accessed easily when the water level is low. Please limit guests to 6 or less people. Land is not perfectly level. Although neighbors are some distance away I asked that noise levels are low after 10. Facts & History:: Arcola creek runs into an estuary. Its one of the last remaining natural estuaries in Ohio. Steelhead trout spawn and migratory birds find shelter here. The creek was used by Native Americans and the area was instrumental for its role in the Underground Railroad for escaped slaves that boarded ships (at the end of the Dock Rd) on their way to Canada. The town of Ellensburg was built at the junction of Arcola Creek and Lake Erie. It was a thriving community of ship builders, fishermen and commerce. Arcole Iron Works was located south of the mouth of the creek (then called Cunningham Creek after Captain John Cunningham who purchased property there in the early 1800s). Arcole Iron Works was, at one time, the largest industry in Ohio. Bog iron, discovered in Madison Township near North Ridge Road in 1812, and the abundance of timber provided the raw materials for iron furnaces. Iron stoves, kettles, hollowware and other heavy castings were made at the foundry. Everyone is welcome here, let me know ahead of time if there's anything to make your stay more comfortable. Please be respectful of the site and neighbors.

The best dog-friendly RV camping near Geneva-on-the-Lake guide

Where to go

Geneva State Park

At Geneva State Park, just outside of Geneva-on-the-Lake, campers can take a short walk from their cabin or campsite and enjoy a relaxing picnic next to Lake Erie. Thrill-seekers can take their jet skis onto the lake, while the rest of the family looks for sea glass at Breakwater Beach. Pet-friendly campsites with hookups for electricity are available year-round. There’s also access to laundry facilities, showers, a fish-cleaning house, and a playground for kids.

Pymatuning State Park

Right across the Ohio-Pennsylvania border is Pymatuning State Park. It surrounds the 17,000-acre Pymatuning Reservoir. Linesville Campground is in the northern part of the park and offers pet-friendly campsites with electric hookups. Jamestown Campground is at the southern end of the park and has a boat launch, beach, amphitheater, and camp store. After picking a campsite, check out a unique phenomenon at the spillway—it’s where ducks walk on the backs of fish. Then look to the skies for nesting bald eagles and enjoy picture-perfect sunsets before retiring to the tent.

Mosquito Lake State Park

South of Geneva-on-the-Lake is Mosquito Lake State Park. It offers some of the best lake fishing in the state. Boats with unlimited horsepower are allowed, but there is a “no wake” restriction within 300 feet of the shore. Reel in channel catfish, largemouth bass, walleye, and black crappie. Then, set up at an on-site campground facility that includes shower houses with flush toilets, full-service campsites, plus two yurts with bunk beds, picnic tables, and fire rings that overlook the water.

When to go

The summer months from June to August are the most popular time of year at Geneva-on-the-Lake. Temperatures average in the 80s, which makes summer an excellent time for swimming, beach activities, and taking in the fun attractions on the Strip. For a quieter visit with fewer crowds and milder temperatures, consider the shoulder seasons. Wine tours are especially magical in fall, while spring offers blooming flowers, diverse migratory birds, and the beginning of fishing season at Pymatuning Lake.
