The camping village at the Ohio State Fair displays three distinct and unique ways to camp…

  • Camper Cabins provide cozy wooden shelters that range from rustic to refined. Most camper cabins sleep up to four on cots, bunks or bench beds. Basic gear includes a cooler and camp lights while deluxe camper cabins offer some cooking equipment, which may include a mini refrigerator, microwave, camp stove, or outdoor grill. Some locations offer additional amenities such as TVs, ceiling fans, A/C, gas fireplaces or porches.
  • Yurts are round canvas structures on wooden platforms, with a wooden lattice framework and canvas roof with a dome skylight. Yurts come furnished with convertible futon beds and bunks, table and chairs, mini refrigerator or cooler, and internal electrical outlets. Some locations also offer a range or camp stove, microwave, sink with cold running water and outdoor gas grill.
  • Rent-A-Camp sites feature a tent set up on a wooden platform at a scenic campsite. Standard gear includes 2 cots with sleeping pads, a cooler, camp light and camp stove. Some locations offer electrical hookups at the campsite.

Camping Village hours of operation are 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
