Turkey Run Ridge Group offers an excellent camping experience for large groups, featuring multiple picnic tables, fire rings, and convenient access to clean, heated bathrooms. Guests appreciate the peaceful atmosphere, well-maintained hiking trails, and supportive staff, making it ideal for scout troops and family gatherings. However, some visitors noted issues with water availability during winter and bright lights affecting nighttime ambiance.

Camped here with my son's Scout troop and it was awesome even though temps were very cold. It is a very good facility with ample room and accommodations

Great space, deep in the forest, multiple fir pits for cooking and camp fires, clean flushing toilets. Can’t wait to come back.

Felt like we had the whole park to our selves, probably because it's the middle of winter. The campground was great and near running water and heated restrooms was a bonus. He had a great 5 mi hike before setting up camp. Would recommend to any scout troop for winter camping.

It's an absolutely great park, the group campsites are excellent, and the staff was superb when we were doing on line planning.
My issue: We got there and found out all the water faucets and fountains had been turned off for winter and this was never mentioned on the website. We had a soft water bag that we could fill in the bathroom sink, but other troops hard hard bottles and were just out of luck.
I went to the visitor center to see if there were alternate fill points, like a custodian's sink and was told there were none.
Since our visit was part of a bike ride, this could have been a trip ender w/o the lucky foresight of the water bag.
It should have been on the website.
