Mohican State Park

Tips for Snagging a Campsite Reservation

1. You can make reservations over the phone or online by calling the Ohio State Parks reservation line. Walk-ins aren’t allowed.
2. Campsites are available from six months in advance of your stay, while cabins are available up to 12 months in advance.
3. Cabins must be reserved at least one day in advance, while campsites can be reserved up until the day of your stay.
4. Weekends require a minimum 2-night stay, except on Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends, which require 3-night stays. To stay just one night, either book a weeknight or wait until seven days before your stay (for campsites) or 10 days (for cabins), when last-minute, one-night stays are released.

When to Go

Each season offers its own special charms, with ample opportunities for hiking, fishing, and camping in warmer months and great snowmobiling in winter. Summers are the busiest time to visit, particularly between Memorial Day and Labor Day. Autumn is a great time to visit, when crowds are fewer and the trees begin to change color. It’s usually still warm enough to comfortably camp overnight well into October.

Know Before You Go

• The park’s camp store sells basic supplies, with more extensive options available in Loudonville, just outside the park.
• Up to two pets are allowed at each campsite, and some cabins are also pet-friendly.
• Some tent sites and pull-through sites are ADA accessible.
• Group camping is available in a separate area of the park, away from the family campground, and offers a more primitive experience, with fire rings, drinking water, and pit latrines.
