Lake Milton State Park Campground

About

Lake Milton State Park Campground sits along a scenic 1,685-acre reservoir created in 1917 when a dam was installed on the Mahoning River. Located in the northwest corner of Mahoning County, this year-round campground provides modern facilities and direct access to one of northeast Ohio's premier water recreation destinations. The campground features electric sites suitable for RVs and tent camping, with modern amenities including a camp store stocked with supplies, firewood, and equipment. A separate equestrian campground with primitive non-electric sites is also available for horseback riders. The park's centerpiece is the large reservoir, which offers excellent boating, fishing, and swimming opportunities. A sandy beach, boat ramps, and picnic areas provide additional recreational options for campers and day visitors. The scenic shoreline attracts waterfowl and shorebirds, making it a rewarding destination for wildlife observation. The park's convenient location near Youngstown and major highways makes it easily accessible for both local campers and those traveling through the region. With its combination of water-based recreation, modern camping facilities, and natural beauty, Lake Milton State Park serves as a peaceful retreat for families and outdoor enthusiasts year-round.
