amazing ! perfect place to create fam memories or place to get away. the best of both worlds .
Not to mention the amazing pizza and food frm their oasis (food restaurant) it also has a arcade inside there as well.
Don’t forget the beach and merry go round

Spent the day at the lake! The staff were all very nice right down to the guy stamping hands at the entrance to the younger staff working at making snow cones! The prices are so affordable and there looks to be so much to do here! A storm came in and the staff worked quickly and efficiently making sure people were out of the water and safe! The splash pad was awesome for the rest breaks for the beach. I’m glad we could put the phones down and enjoy the company! Nice place! Will return soon!

Only $5 admission. Nice big lake with a designated swim area. Multiple slides, diving board and a high dive. Large grassy area and good size beach. You can rent tubes for only $5 as well. Overall price was great. The only fault was the food. Reminding me of a ‘90’s school lunch. 🤣 Definitely recommend for a day trip or stay at the campground for a weekend. Staff were very polite and helpful.

Had lots of fun. Love the beach ⛱️
We went fishing 🎣 and I talked to some of the people that have been residents there for many years. They tell me the lake hasn't been stocked in years. Nobody ever catches anything other than maybe a bluegill.

This is in the sticks, so very little to no cell service. But that's a nice change of pace to unplug for a few days. The staff is more than willing to help you, or answer questions. The lodging is clean and well maintained. It's not 5 stars, but clean and nice. They don't have a ton of dishes, so don't plan on making elaborate meals. Then you have to bring all your linens, thats kinda of a pain, but not a deal breaker.
The amenities are plenty for the kids to enjoy themselves at the beach, or go carts, ect. Maybe not enough for more than 3-4 days.
The food selection at there 2 different Café s could definitely use some improvements. Like at least add cheeseburger or corn dogs to the menu. And they should maybe consider doing some evening activities for the kids, like dance parties, movie nights, craft sessions, ect. We've been to other parks that offered these things and it was a great attraction for our evenings.
All in all, it was a great trip, and not to expensive. We have booked our next trip for next year

Best place to visit in Ohio and where great memories are made! The staff are the absolute sweetest and most helpful for any situation. Events scheduled throughout the summer for fun, very clean, lots of things for kids to do. Also, where kids can be kids! I will always recommend Longs to friends and family.

An excellent, clean, well maintained place to connect with family, new and old friends, and other campers and disconnect from the everyday distractions of technology. We absolutely love our time there.

After staying at a relatives' camper for a season, we started looking for a place of our own. With the laid back atmosphere of just being able to get away is the main reason of coming. But with the amount of technology we are hit with everyday, nice to be able to enjoy the campground amenities of swimming, basketball, fishing, kayaking or driving the golf cart around. The stars are so much more intense there.
There are cabins for rent if just planning a long weekend. Not far from here is an Amish store, The Country Crust Bakery, that has pretzel sandwiches that are so good. Although sauce on the side is suggested.
Longs is just far enough to get away, but still be close to home.

Enjoy!
