Camping near Geneva-on-the-Lake with swimming guide

Overview

Under an hour outside of Cleveland, Geneva-on-the-Lake is a small resort town on the southern shore of Lake Erie. Campers can explore the lively energy of arcades and go-karts along the historic Geneva-on-the-Lake Strip, embark on wine tours and tastings, or discover the stories behind the picturesque covered bridges of Ashtabula County. Right next to town, Geneva State Park awaits with sandy beaches, comfortable cottages, and RV campsites with full hookups next to Lake Erie. Farther south, Pymatuning State Park and Mosquito Lake State Park welcome campers with charming yurts, excellent fishing, unbelievable sunsets, scenic hiking trails, and unique wildlife viewing opportunities.

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.
