Country Stage Campground Will Become Ohio’s Fourth Jellystone Park™ In 2018
Country Stage Campground, which has been family owned and operated by Pamela and Todd McCreary for the past decade, will become Ohio’s fourth Jellystone Park when it reopens May 1 for the 2018 camping season. “We will be known as the Cleveland Sandusky Jellystone Park,” said Pamela McCreary, adding that the 150-site park will have new signage and other improvements, including an outdoor movie area and rental accommodations, when it reopens in the spring. McCreary said her business has been doing well with her existing offering of family activities and amenities, which include a gaga ball pit, a mining sluice, a cafe and a three-acre catch and release fishing lake. And she expects that she would continue to do well even if she and her husband continued to operate as Country Stage Campground. But she said becoming a Jellystone Park will bring a new level of excitement to their park with new activities and entertainment and, of course, Yogi Bear™ and Boo Boo™.

Jellystone Parks Target The Family Reunion Market With Extra Large Cabins And Bunkhouses
For more than a decade, privately owned campgrounds have been increasingly adding rental cabins to accommodate people who don’t have a tent or RV. Most campground cabins sleep four to six people, either with one big bed and a couple of bunk beds for the kids or a big bed plus a loft where the kids can roll out their sleeping bags. But growing numbers of Jellystone Parks are taking the rental concept a step further by providing their guests with bunk houses and other large multi-room cabins and ranch style houses.
