Cross Creek Camping Resort

I had a great experience camping here. I called and booked with short notice, and they were able to accommodate. While I was there, I liked it so much that I was able to extend my stay, without issue, at the same spot! Very kind workers in the office. The bathhouse was great and can accommodate many people at once. Same goes for laundry. The pull through sites are smaller, but the back in spots have much more space! The spot came with a fire pit and slab with picnic table. All spots appeared very level. I barely had to do any leveling to my camper. Also, this place is very safe. They are pet friendly. Would stay here again if ever back in the area.

Cross Creek is now part of a chain of Applebrook campgrounds. They do not seem to care about you as a person but rather than a number. I used a link to check in that they sent to me in an email that had my site assignment on it and a map highlighting how to navigate to it. They want you to subscribe and use the "campers" app that has not been updated for 2 years. And also the terms of agreement just did not set well with me as it was too invasive of my privacy. I did not download it. Therefore we had to make a trip to the office to even get to see and speak with a person after finding our site and setting up camp. Not very friendly staff behind the counter when asked if there were brochures about the area. We were informed that they did not have any and would not be getting any in stock. Never given any activity calendar or asked any questions about our site. If you do not care for campfires do not go here. The whole campground smelled so strongly of campfire smoke we could not go out at night. It would filter in on our A/C. This is our second visit to Cross Creek and it will be our last.

They offer only 4 primitive sites that you can pop a tent up. We loved our site it was large and had a nice secluded area at the back for the tent to be. The only problem is that you can't stay more than 3 days. We loved it so much we wanted to stay 2 more days. They become really aggravated if you don't leave quickly, as well.

Jeff and I spent the week at Cross Creek in a rental camper because it was so close to the Alum Creek Marina where our boat is docked. We found the resort's location so close to Polaris area of Columbus great for meeting family at Top Golf and other fun venues in addition to the boat. The campground is awesome! And so pet friendly. The bark park was always clean and our poodles loved going inside. We also loved exploring the wooded trails. Even though we had booked a smaller site, it had a shade tree and patio with picnic table. There is plenty of shady area in the resort. The public showerhouse was also very clean and the water pressure was awesome! We will definitely be going back in our new 2024 Salem Cruise Lite by Forest River!

Was here for a weekend in a rented RV while our house was being shown for sale...this is the best time we've had all summer...requested a shade cover spot for the RV & got it,needed to be here earlier than expected,no problem,had a question it was answered....feels like a private community full of great people....we are look8ng to buy our own RV in the near future & hope that we can get a more permanent spot for our retirement...
