Leafy Oaks Campground Inc is a campground and propane supplier listed at 6955 OH-101 in Clyde, Ohio, carrying a 4.3 rating across 242 reviews. That combination of a mid-4 rating with a large review base makes it a reasonable candidate for a closer look, especially for travelers comparing family-oriented camping options in the region.
This summary is built from the listing's own details and from the visitor reviews attached to it. It separates what the record states from what guests describe, and it flags the points the available data does not settle, so the picture stays honest rather than promotional.
Leafy Oaks Campground Inc at a Glance
The property sits along OH-101 in Clyde, Ohio, within the America/New_York time zone, and is categorized both as a campground and as a propane supplier, which suggests a site that serves practical needs beyond overnight stays. The listing's activity attributes note that RV camping is allowed and that a camping fee applies, while a separate attribute marks it as a children's camp. Contact is handled by phone at +1 567-230-6499 or through the campground's website at leafyoaks.com, and a Google Maps place entry exists for the location.
Parking is described in the listing as a free lot with on-site parking, and accessibility attributes cover a wheelchair-accessible car park, entrance and toilet. Dogs are listed as allowed. The payment attributes are worth reading with care: credit cards, debit cards and NFC mobile payments all appear, but a cash-only indicator appears in the same block, so the listing does not give a clean answer on how payment is actually handled. The amenities block is largely made up of opaque identifier strings plus a Clyde, Ohio location marker, meaning it adds location context rather than describable facilities.
What Do Visitors Like About Leafy Oaks Campground Inc?
Across the reviews attached to this listing, sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with most entries awarding full marks and describing welcoming staff, clean grounds and a family-oriented atmosphere. Two of the longer entries are more measured four-star accounts that pair praise for space and staffing with specific complaints about water pressure, the shower house, and a refund disagreement. Even those entries describe a return visit or continued enjoyment, so the overall tone is favorable rather than divided.
1. An owner-led, hands-on operation
Reviewers repeatedly single out the owner, Joan, as the reason a stay felt personal. Megan described being greeted with a smile and credited Joan with running the campground with attention to detail, while Trina Lynn called her friendly and helpful during a first-ever camping trip. Daniel Hill wrote that both the owner and staff were supportive and accommodating when a medical emergency interrupted a stay, and Ron Allan described the owner as accommodating. Ashley Hooven framed the same point more broadly, saying the owners and staff work hard to make guests feel at home.
2. Cleanliness of bathrooms, showers and grounds
Cleanliness is one of the most frequently repeated compliments. Megan described the bathrooms as pristine and the showers as warm; Brian T called the showers and restrooms very clean; Daniel Hill described the laundry and shower facilities as spotlessly clean and tied that to maintenance standards. Trina Lynn noted that the swimming pond and playground were clean and large, and Ashley Hooven summed the property up as a clean campground.
The one clear counterpoint comes from Jill Rollings-Rew, who separated the toilets, which she found clean, from the shower house, which she described as the worst she had seen while noting it still functioned. That is a single reviewer's experience and it sits alongside several opposite accounts rather than replacing them.
3. A family-first atmosphere with weekend events
Families are the audience this campground appears to serve, and reviewers describe it that way. Ashley Hooven called it welcoming and family friendly with something fun always going on, and said the events suit both kids and adults. Kirsten Faust described weekend activities and live music during a Memorial Day stay, and Jill Rollings-Rew mentioned a live band on the Saturday of her visit. Brian T and Megan both singled out live music as a highlight.
Amenities tied to that family focus come up repeatedly: a swimming pond used only for swimming, a playground described as great or big, picnic facilities, hiking trails and a fishing pond. Da Pacem Domine, whose family holds an annual reunion there, cited picnic, playground and swimming facilities along with plenty of hookups as reasons the group returns.
4. Multiple ways to stay, from primitive sites to cabins
Reviewers describe a spread of accommodation rather than a single format. Mark Ortolani noted everything from primitive camping set away from the main area to comfortable cabins, and Trina Lynn reported staying in both a tent and a cabin during the same trip. Jill Rollings-Rew described a back-in full-hookup site that backed onto the pond, and Daniel Hill reviewed the property in its RV-park capacity. The listing itself records that RV camping is allowed and that a camping fee applies.
The on-site store comes up as a practical anchor for all of those formats. Mark Ortolani said the little store offers everything you might have forgotten and then some; Daniel Hill called it impressively well stocked; selena metcalf said the camp store has everything you would need; and Kirsten Faust noted it carries beer and liquor as well as camping supplies.
5. Space, quiet and dog-friendly grounds
Several reviewers describe the property in terms of room and calm. Mama Bear listed large lots, plenty of grass and a great playground among the positives, and Jill Rollings-Rew called the campground small, quiet, peaceful and fun. Peyton Garcia described it as a chill, laid-back place with good people around, and Mark Ortolani used the phrase tucked away in the woods.
Dog friendliness is confirmed both by the listing, which marks dogs as allowed, and by reviewers. Daniel Hill, writing as a dog owner, appreciated the ample space for walking and playing with pets, and Kirsten Faust described the campground as very dog friendly. Seasonal campers are a visible part of the mix here, and reviewers describe them warmly: selena metcalf called them very nice, Ron Allan noted the park is mostly seasonal residents but friendly, and Kirsten Faust mentioned super nice neighbors.
6. Where the experience fell short
The complaints that appear are specific rather than sweeping. Mama Bear, giving four stars, reported very little water pressure, not enough to shower, and also described being charged through Thursday after checking out on Wednesday despite informing staff in advance that the departure day was uncertain. Jill Rollings-Rew, also four stars, rated the shower house poorly while noting the toilets were clean. Eric Brown's stay was cut short when heavy rain flooded the tent, though the same reviewer still recommended the park and hoped to return.
Weather exposure is worth naming plainly because it comes from a guest rather than the listing: tent camping in open conditions can be affected by heavy rain, and the review records one such instance without suggesting it is typical.
