Shady Pines RV Park

We chose this RV park for an overnight on a recent trip to Ohio. Online reviews raved about the facilities. And they were right! The bathrooms are super clean and the showers are big with a large bench for you to sit on and to put your things on. There's a laundry room as well. It's a small place but that's part of what makes it nice. There are a few residents but all of the spaces are clean and well maintained. There's not a lot of stuff piled around the RVs like in some places. There's a fishing lake and there are spots that back up to it. And there are pull thrus which is what we were in. It's convenient for overnights. We arrived late on a Sunday, the office was already closed but our name was posted on the door with our site number. We paid in the office the next morning. All the sites are paved and level. And there's a picnic table at each site. Very clean grounds and spaces. We could see ourselves staying here again for a longer period of time.

Other than the permanent people around the outside, the park was empty except for us in the center pull through site. Nice concrete sites with grass strip in between and FHUs. Most pads were level but a couple had a slight rise. Site is only wide enough for RV/MH with just a foot on each side. We squeezed to walk on this foot because of the goat heads in the grass. The park is quiet and there was little movement. Office is not open from 12 - 3. WiFi worked well, but then the park was empty. No cable just over the air.

One of the cleanest RV parks I’ve stayed in. Restrooms and showers are VERY clean and heated. Employees are extremely courteous. Sites are well spaced apart and very easy to maneuver in and out of. Concrete drive and pads. Good WiFi and Verizon service. The Chuckwagon Cafe a few miles away is a MUST for excellent breakfast at a great price. Some might consider the location too far off the beaten path, but that contributes to the quiet. RV dealership right next door.

Great place. Peaceful and relatively near the lake. Very friendly staff. Pet-friendly, laundry access, and great grassy area near pond to walk.

Called at the last minute and they got us in. Sites are large and clean.
Staff was friendly and helpful.
Will definitely stay here again.

The entrance is impossibly tight for more than 1 vehicle with a drainage ditch on both sides. Not a problem if you take it easy & have it all to yourself. We arrived on Friday during lunch. Office was closed, but our assigned site was posted so no problem. After a multitude of gravel sites, a couple of which were agonizingly off-level, it was great to have a level concrete site with beautiful spacious green grass. Great internet.

Nice clean park. Didn’t use laundry or bathhouse but overall park is super clean. Located next to RV sales by same name. Large grass area with pound great for walking pets. Best to stay on Hwy 67, don’t follow Google maps down back roads coming from west or north! Very narrow! Definitely recommend this park

Right on a busy road that feels like listening to nascar all day. Even in the RV with fans on.

Notice if you have Asthma- office building/laundry will about kill you. Air spray so bad. Strong leftover scents from other peoples laundry. Can’t describe this- it’s just too much.

WiFi was not even strong enough to pull up a test
ATT 37.6 down 5.57 up
Verizon 0.64 down 1.39 up
T Mobile 6.08 down 1.13 up
Unless you have ATT, you will be stuck in 1980 dial up mode

Laundry 1.50 ea. they have 3 washers but only 2 dryers. Signs warn that washers only fill up half way so you have to cut your loads in half. Dryer on the left barely works- takes 2 cycles to dry. Overall spent $12 for what should have been 2 loads. And now have to rewash the clothes at a laundromat because the leftover scent was making me cough so bad. Also the laundry room smelled like poop/ not sure if a bathroom is vented in here but omg. Just wouldn’t recommend the laundry here.

Nice area to walk dogs by the lake.
RV park next door sells propane, has a parts store (they don’t carry much but can order it if you have a couple days wait), and others here mentioned if anything needs fixing they will come over to the park to help.

All but 4 sites are full time residents here and it’s a nice community of people who look out for each other. Level concrete pads, nice table and grass area, very clean.

Overall it’s fine for an overnight, but I wouldn’t stay again.

Oh forgot to mention - there is a military base near here that tests cannons. Loud booms that shook everything in the RV- even my dishes fell. If you have a dog that doesn’t like fireworks - this…. Is level 11.

Nice park, friendly staff, clean laundromat, cement pad, easy in/out

I can’t imagine how anyone could write a bad review, unless they don’t camp often. Clean everything, friendly staff, very fair price and spacious sites
