Cross Creek Camping Resort

Cross Creek Camping Resort in Delaware, Ohio, offers full-hookup RV sites, tent sites, and cabins on a big-rig-friendly property 30 minutes north of the Columbus ring road. A heated pool, recreation center, and full activity program serve central Ohio's weekend camping market in rolling Delaware County countryside. Full-hookup RV sites serve guests with rigs on a layout sized for big coaches, with tent sites and cabins rounding out the accommodations. A general store, laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Check-in for rentals is 3pm, and the resort is strict on it given the cleaning turnaround from the previous night's departure. Pets are welcome. A heated pool anchors the summer, with a recreation center, sports courts, tennis, volleyball, basketball, bocce ball, shuffleboard, gaga ball, corn hole, and gem mining across the grounds. A creek runs the property, with walking trails, biking, a community fire pit, playground, and dog park besides, and live music through the season. A lake, water park, amusement park, and casino are all nearby. Delaware County's position north of the Columbus metro is the practical advantage — this is a genuine outdoor escape that a Columbus family can reach in half an hour, which is exactly what the weekend camping market needs. State park access and boating are close. The resort serves the Ohio season. Summer weekends from the Columbus metro drive the heaviest demand, with fall color extending it into October. Reserve well ahead for summer holiday weekends.
