Enon Beach Campground

While this place looks good in the pictures it’s loud from traffic on both sides of the park and there’s a freight train that runs down the third side.

There’s a large full time community here with rigs in various states of disrepair and shirtless kids on bikes riding around at all hours. Now you must be reading this and thinking I’m some sort of total kramudgen, but I promise I am not. I get along with everyone, but for 39/night on the outskirts of Dayton, Oh I expect a little more.

Oh... and the Verizon coverage sucked... on the upside the 50 amp service worked the entire time I was there... so there’s that!

Had a blowout on toad 1000 miles from home. After extensive repair, Firestone returned it with virtually no gas. Pulled in to Enron Beach, paid for site, explained my predicament and asked if they had a gas can I could borrow and I would promptly return it full. I was told indeed they did have a gas can but I could not borrow it. I won’t even mention the other failings of this park. Nasty, inconsiderate people have no place in this business.

We ended up staying here one night to split our drive into two days and we should have just commuted to the whole drive. The grass was soooooo long. My toddler couldn’t play outside in it. The beach is just dusty dirt. The lake water is not swimable. The playground was rusty. 42 dollars for this campground!!!!! Insane. The interstate is so loud and the trains are SO loud! No positives.

Don’t be too hard on this place. It looks as though the campground has had some highways build up around it over the years. The staff is so friendly and the other campers as well. We’ve camped overnight here on several occasions, and I simply use my phone or a sound machine to help mask traffic sounds.

This campground gets a 1.5 of 5 rating from Trip Advisor - old, dirty and noisy
