QUESTIONS |
Why
stay at Mohican Adventures instead
of somewhere else?
Besides all that Mohican Adventures has to offer such as an indoor swimming pool
and hot tub, a lake and pond stocked for fishing, hiking and biking trails, canoe
livery, mini golf, go-karts, 3 playgrounds, sand volleyball court, basketball
court, planned activity director, peddle boats, conference center and our modern
facilities and site accommodations like our shower houses with hot running water
and clean, flush toilets, 30/50 amp RV sites with electricity and water, wooded
and open field tent sites, and a picnic table and fire ring at every site and
cabin, all in the middle of Mohican Country’s beautiful landscape… the
real reason to stay at Mohican Adventures comes from our staff! Our staff wants
you to come visit us and is anticipating making this family vacation or group
outing the best you’ve ever had! We pride ourselves in being the most customer
friendly and customer serving vacation destination in the area. BACK
TO TOP
Where
is Mohican Adventures located?
Mohican Adventures is located on State Route 3 South of Loudonville. We’re
20 miles from Interstate 71, directly between Cleveland and Columbus. Click HERE for
directions! BACK TO TOP
Do
we need reservations for camping, lodging,
or river trips?
Camping: We
recommend reservations for weekends, especially
from Memorial weekend to Labor Day weekend.
Weekdays do not require a reservation, but
they are recommended so that you may reserve
your favorite site number and that we can
expect your company.
Cabins: Yes,
we recommend a reservation in advance for
all cabins, weekends and weekdays. Our cabins
are available to book a year in advance of
the reservation date.
River Trips: We
do recommend reservations for large groups.
On weekends and holidays we take reservations
for groups coming before 12 NOON. This reservation
guarantees you availability of the boats,
but you still have to wait in line to get
launched. BACK
TO TOP
Are
gift certificates available?
Gift certificates are available in any denomination. Purchase gift certificates
in person or over the phone. BACK TO TOP
What
job opportunities are available at Mohican
Adventures and how do I apply?
Most of our employment opportunities are for seasonal help during the summer,
while some positions may be open from spring to fall. To apply, simply stop by
Mohican Adventures to fill out an application or email or call us with your address
to send you a copy. BACK TO TOP |
| CAMPGROUNDS & CABINS |
When
is the campground open?
The campground is open from April to December. Water will be turned on in
the RV sections and primitive cabins depending on weather and outside temperature.
Water is turned off October 31st for some cabins and all RV sites. BACK
TO TOP
What does it take to reserve
a site or cabin?
To reserve a campsite you must be at least 18 years of age. To reserve a
cabin you must be at least 21 years of age. A reservation deposit is required
and sites or cabins will not be held without a deposit. Deposits can be made
with a Visa, MasterCard, or Discover card. BACK
TO TOP
Are showers available and what
do they cost?
We have modern shower houses available to our guests only that are open 24/7. They are FREE! We do not
charge you to stay here and then expect you to pay to shower. We recommend
not staying anywhere that does. BACK
TO TOP
What time is check-in and check-out?
Check-in for camping sites is after 2:00 pm. Cabin check-in starts at 5:00
pm. Check-out is by 12:00 NOON. BACK
TO TOP
What form of payments does
Mohican Adventures accept?
We require our deposits to be made at the time of reservation on a Visa,
MasterCard, or Discover card. At check-in, guests may pay by one of the above
credit cards or with cash. We do not accept personal checks. BACK
TO TOP
What time is quiet time and
why is there a quiet time?
Quiet time is from 11:00 pm to 7:00 am. This means no loud music, singing,
or hollering during this time. You can still be awake and enjoying the outdoors,
you just have to also be courteous to others. There is a quiet time to make
sure that everyone is enjoying their stay at Mohican Adventures. BACK
TO TOP
Are late check-ins available?
Check-ins must be in by 11:00 pm. There are no late check-ins after that.
If you are arriving after 11:00 pm, you may check in the following morning
when the office opens. Cabins keys will not be left at cabins. BACK
TO TOP
Why aren’t late check-ins
available?
There are many reasons why late check-ins are not allowed. The two biggest
reasons are for liability and guest happiness. As with most things in life
nowadays, there are forms to be signed and passes to be given. With customers
coming in late, we can not ensure that the proper paperwork is signed and
passes administered. Other customers who have already checked in find late
check-ins disturbing. Parking an RV or finding a campsite and setting up
a tent after dark can be difficult, noisy and agitating. This is why we do
not allow late check-ins past our quiet time. BACK
TO TOP
Can you put tents on a cabin
site?
Tents near cabins are prohibited as they can be a fire hazard. The cabin
area is not zoned for tent camping by us or the Fire Marshall. BACK
TO TOP
Do you need 4-wheel drive
to get to all your tent sites? Can I make it up the 4-wheel drive recommended area in
my car?
Most of our tent sites (including wooded and open field) do not require 4-wheel
drive to get to them. However, we do have two 4-wheel drive recommended areas in our
tent section (Eagle's Nest and Buzzard Roost). While cars and 2-wheel drive
trucks have reached most of these in the past, we do not recommend trying
to get to these sites without 4-wheel drive. Especially with reserving sites
ahead of time, the weather cannot be predicted and rain can make these areas
tricky to navigate through. Mohican Adventures clearly indicates 4-wheel
drive roads and is not responsible for damages to vehicles trying to make
it up these areas. BACK TO TOP
Are there group rates or discounts
given on cabins?
We give discounted rates on cabins during the off-season and during weekdays.
We do not give additional discounts on cabins, including for large groups.
By staying with us, you do receive discounts off of the River Trips or the FAMILY
FUN PACKAGE, along with discounts at over 15 area businesses
that honor our guests. BACK TO TOP
What should I bring?
We’ve done most of the planning for you. Visit our webpage HERE to
see some of the things that most people desire when visiting Mohican Adventures,
but sometimes forget to bring. Remember, our camp store has a lot of the
things you may have forgot when packing! BACK
TO TOP
Do you have a visitors’ fee?
We do have a visitors’ fee of $9.00 a day for anyone 16 years and older,
and $5.00 a day for youth 15 years and younger. Visitors have to register
at the campground office before entering the park and receive their passes
before entry is permitted. Visitor passes will only be issued to those visiting
a registered camper or cabin renter. Visitors receive all the same discounts as guests, including 10 % off river trips and Family Fun Packages. BACK
TO TOP
Why are non-camping guests
charged a fee to visit us?
You, as a camper, have paid to use our facilities. Visitors also use them,
which creates additional costs & liabilities and also overcrowding for
our paying customers. In order to not raise prices for the additional costs
on everyone, we’ve implemented the visitor fee so that prices stay
low and visitors are still allowed in the park. BACK
TO TOP
Are there tent sites or cabins
available on the river?
We do not have riverfront tent or RV sites. However, we do have some tent
sites along our creek and RV sites along the creek and lake. We have four
cabins along the river. They are Frye's Riverside A-frames and the Riverside
Ranch Houses. You get the beautiful scenery of Mohican wherever you stay
in our park. BACK TO TOP
What comes on the sites?
Each camping site and cabin comes with a picnic table and fire ring. All
cabins also come with a charcoal grill. RV sites come full service with 30/50 amp electricity, water, and sewer. A dump station is also location
on the grounds.
Where is everything located
in your park?
Our campground is very large, but most activities are within walking distance
from all of our sites. Please view our CAMPGROUND
MAP to see where everything is. BACK
TO TOP
Is there internet access in
the park?
We now offer FREE WI-FI thoughout the main park!. BACK TO TOP
Is there cell-phone service
in the park?
Mohican Adventures is tucked into a beautiful valley, meaning that cell-phone
service is very touchy. Verizon-Wireless gets the best signal in our area.
However, people with other providers have been able to find signal by standing
on the flat rock on the left hand side at the end of our drive. BACK
TO TOP
Can I reserve online?
We’re sorry but we do not have online reservations at this time. BACK
TO TOP
Can I reserve specific sites?
Yes! We do reserve specific sites for guests on a first come, first reserved
basis. Mohican Adventures does have the right to change your site if need
be. This ONLY happens if the site is damaged in some way and benefits the
customer by moving them. We will try to notify you ahead of time if your
site needs changed. BACK TO TOP
May we put more people in
cabins than the cabin occupancy says and just bring sleeping bags?
Our cabin occupancies are not merely suggestions. They are set by State Fire
Marshalls and Health Marshalls and are required to not be violated by our
insurance. All guests must be registered and accounted for by the campground
office. If occupancies are violated, guests will be asked to leave without
refund. BACK TO TOP
How many people can stay on
a campsite?
We have a 4 adult and 4 children maximum occupancy on our sites. Ask your reservationist when booking how to best utilize site requirements and space. BACK TO TOP
Where is propane available?
Propane can be found at Morris Motors, the car dealership right beside us,
or at Mohican RV center, left out of our drive and the 1st road on the left. BACK
TO TOP
What is the refund or cancellation
policy?
Cabins must be cancelled 30 days prior to arrival date in order to be refunded,
minus a $30.00 per cabin cancellation fee. Camping sites must cancel a week
in advanced of arrival date in order to receive refund, minus a $10.00 per
site cancellation fee. There are no refunds given after these dates or after
check-in. Camping is an outdoor
experience and we do not give refunds for early departures due to weather
or any other reason. BACK TO TOP
Is there drinking water near
tent sites?
Tent sites do not come with water on site, but water is available on your
way to your tent site, along with at the shower house. BACK
TO TOP
When is the busiest time of
the season?
Our busy season is between Memorial Day and Labor Day, with the end of June
until the middle of August being our busiest. We recommend coming during
the week if you'd like to miss the crowd. BACK
TO TOP
Am I allowed to bring my dog?
Dogs are allowed in our campground, but not in most of our cabins or any
public buildings inside the campground. Pets are allowed in our Frye's Riverside
A-frames for an additional $50.00 per pet per stay. Pets are no charge in
our camping section as long as they are kept under control, tied up, cleaned
up after, and not left unattended. Campers who receive complaints about their
dogs barking will be asked to leave. Violations will result in a charge. BACK
TO TOP
Is firewood available? Can
we bring it from home?
Firewood is available in the campground store during operating hours. You
may bring firewood from home, but we ask that you do not bring Ash to help
stop the spread of the Emerald Ash Borer. See www.ohioagriculture.gov/eab
for details on the Ash Borer. BACK
TO TOP
Are there places to fish and
do I need a fishing license?
Our campground has a lake and pond to fish in. These have bluegill, bass,
brown trout, carp, and catfish in them. You do not need a fishing license
to fish on Mohican Adventures property. Fishing here is catch and release.
There are also great places to fish in the Mohican area, including the Covered
Bridge and Pleasant Hill Lake and Dam. To fish in areas in the Mohican State
Park, you do need a fishing license. BACK
TO TOP
Can we use rafts or tubes
in the pool or the pond?
Rafts and tubes are not allowed in the pool as they take up too much room
for the other guests. Arm floaties or infant tubes are allowed in the pool.
Rafts and tubes are allowed at the beach area of the lake. No swimming outside of the beach area, including swimming off the peddle boats. BACK
TO TOP
How are the hot tubs taken
care of?
The hot tubs are emptied, cleaned, and refilled after each guests’ stay.
Chemicals are kept at appropriate levels by our maintenance and pool staff.
If there is a problem with your hot tub during your stay, please report it
as soon as possible to the office staff so that it may be taken care of in
an appropriate manner. The pool and hot tub at the shower house are checked
multiple times daily for chemical levels, cleanliness, and the following
of pool rules. BACK TO TOP
Are the bugs bad there?
We are within the City Limits of Loudonville and they spray regularly. We
also spray around our cabins. Despite our efforts, one of the trade offs
of being in such a beautiful, natural setting are sharing it with nature’s
own pets, including insects. Insects are normally not bad here though and
a light spray of bug spray usually takes care of any discomfort. BACK
TO TOP
Where should we keep our food
and belongings while camping?
We are a safe and patrolled campground who has not had a history of stolen
items. However, nature’s guests often help themselves to food left
out at a campsite. We recommend putting food in vehicles or coolers
that lock shut, as our raccoon friends have learned how to open coolers that
do not lock. BACK TO TOP
Can I put a boat on Mohican
Adventures’ lake?
Our lake is only a 4.5 acre lake. No motorized boats are allowed on the lake
(including battery powered motors). You may put a non-motorized boat in the
lake such as canoes and kayaks. Life jackets must be worn. Pleasant Hill Lake does have a public launch
area for motorized boats that is just a short drive away. Their website is
www.pleasanthillmarina.com. BACK TO
TOP
Can we come into the park
and use your pool without staying in your park?
We're sorry but only people staying in the park or their visitors are allowed
to use our pool. BACK TO TOP

are the differences between the three
mini-golf courses?
The Level Skills Course tests your ability to play the game. Skill comes
more into play than luck. The Adventure Course has strategically placed rocks
and water hazards where you'll need some help from Lady Luck. It also goes
up on the top level of our courses. The Grist Mill Challenge course has sand
traps, a running water wheel, and challenging holes where skill and luck
meet wishes and prayers. BACK TO TOP
For
what reasons does the canoe livery close?
The canoe livery closes for high water. We may limit the types of boats
or ages of participants if water levels are higher than normal without closing.
To check on water levels and what each water level means click HERE for
more details.
Is
your stream swift?
No, it is classified as a Class 1 river, which is as easy as it gets. However,
during periods of high water our river can get dangerous due to downed trees
and swifter currents. That is why we monitor the river and have restrictions
during high water (read above). BACK
TO TOP
Are
dogs allowed coming on canoe trips? Are
they allowed in the buses on the way
back?
Dogs are allowed in our canoes. They are not allowed in our rafts. Dogs are
to be kept on a short lease and attended to at all times while they are on
our property. They are allowed on the buses on the way back, but must be
on a leash and controlled.
Are
there any restrictions for children on
the river?
As long as we are in normal water levels, children of all ages are allowed
on the river with their parents. As water levels rise, we restrict the ages
and watercrafts allowed on the river. Click HERE for
more details. Children & Non-swimmers must wear their life jackets at all times on the river. BACK TO TOP
What
is the busiest time of the season?
Our busy season is between Memorial Day and Labor day, with the end of June
until the middle of August being our busiest. We recommend coming during
the week if you'd like to miss the crowd. BACK
TO TOP
Are
coolers permitted? Is alcohol allowed
on the river?
We do permit coolers in our watercraft. Hard-sided coolers are not allowed
in our rafts and NO Styrofoam coolers are permitted in any boats. No glass
bottles are allowed on the river. It is our policy that alcohol and boating
do not mix. We have the right to deny rental privileges to any intoxicated
person and to refuse transportation in our vehicles as well. The river is
patrolled on a regular basis and you can be fined and/or arrested for drinking
and littering. BACK TO TOP
What
time do we have to be off the river by
and are there any time restrictions on
how long the trip takes?
Boats must be in by 7:00 pm in-season
from Memorial Day Weekend to Labor Day Weekend. Out of season times vary. There is a fee for boats that
come in late. The river trip times that we give are estimates. You may take as long as you want to complete the trip,
as long as you are in by 7pm. BACK
TO TOP
Are
there places to stop for food and bathrooms
on the river trips?
Our 7-mile canoe trip goes by campgrounds and snack bars. There are usually
restrooms or port-a-potties at these locations; however they are often for
patrons only so you may have to buy a snack. On the 15-mile trip, you go
mainly through woods and cornfields and do not have a place to stop until
the last 2 miles of the trip. BACK
TO TOP
What
age must you be to go in a single kayak?
As long as water levels are normal, a child of any age can go in a kayak
with parent’s permission. Parents should keep in mind that our
shortest trip is 7-miles and can be quite tiring for children of young ages.
Be prepared to have to stop and rest and possibly switch boats with young
children kayaking on their own. Children should be kept within eyesight.
Remember, kayaks tend to go faster than canoes. BACK
TO TOP
How
do we know where to stop on the river
and at what times does Mohican Adventures
pick us up?
The office staff will explain the trip to you and provide you with a river
map. Our landings are well marked and say our name, trip mileage, and logo.
There is also landing staff at every landing who will make sure you get out
fine. Mohican Adventures buses run continuously from our 7-mile pick-up point.
The 15-mile trip is bused upstream to the start of your trip at the top and
bottom of every hour from opening to 12:30 pm in season. BACK
TO TOP
Who
has to wear lifejackets?
Children 10 and under and non-swimmers MUST wear their life jackets by Ohio
Law. We recommend that everyone wears their lifejackets. Everyone must have
a lifejacket in the boat with them. In cases of high water, everyone may
be required to wear life jackets at all times throughout the trip. BACK
TO TOP
Can
we bring our own canoe or kayak?
You can bring your own hard-sided canoe or kayak (no inflatables) and we
will haul and launch them for half the rental price. In order to get your
boat hauled, Mohican Adventures has to be bringing back boats of our own. BACK
TO TOP
Do
we need reservations?
You do not need reservations for weekday rentals or on most Sundays. Saturdays
are our busiest days, so we take reservations for arrival times before NOON.
The reservation just guarantees you the boats, it does not put you at the
front of our line. BACK TO TOP
Which
rivers do you float?
Our 15-mile trip is on the Blackfork River. Our 7-mile trip starts on the
Blackfork, but the Clear Fork River flows into it about 1⁄2 mile down
from the start and that is where the Mohican River begins. The Lake Fork
also flows into our river on the 7-mile trip. BACK
TO TOP
