fgoodwin 23 Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Can anyone recommend a campground near Columbus, OH? Something cheap (I need to be there about ten days) with showers? Link to post Share on other sites

fgoodwin 23 Posted April 13, 2006 Author Share Posted April 13, 2006 Either -- whichever is cheaper! I looked into a KOA, but they wanted $250 for a ten day stay in a tent. Altho that's less than ten days in a hotel, its still a bit more than I'd like. Link to post Share on other sites
