Huge State Park Outside a Big City but You'd Never Know It

Our RV GPS wanted to take us to the maintenance gate about a mile from the park entrance where you check in. Waze, however, took us to the right entrance where there was an entrance sign. Check in was fairly quick and we asked about cancellations for a FHU site. We were offered site B-4, but when we checked it out the site was too small for our 39’ fifth wheel. We went back around to the campground’s(CG) potable water fill up at the dump station, arriving right after the 3:00 PM check in time. The water spigot has a splitter so you can fill on both sides. Later we found that there are brick water fountains that have a spigot periodically throughout the park but they are not marked on the map. After filling, we headed to premium water-view site K-21 that is a back-in 30/50 AMP, no water nor sewer. Alum Creek is a huge CG with multiple types of sites i.e. FHUs, water view, electric only, etc. What we liked abut this CG was that many of the sites have vegetation on both sides so even if the sites are close together you have privacy. We got 5 bars on Verizon and a lot of OTA channels. Due to the amount of mature trees, satellite could be iffy depending on your site choice. There were restrooms and restroom/shower houses throughout the park/loops. We were able to park sideways in our site with wheels on the grass with no problem. From the K loop there was a large path to the lake for fishing, swimming, or kayak launch. Delaware, OH is about 10 minutes away with all the amenities. In the main/old part of town, parking on the side streets is free.
