Ive been to both camp, and I truely belive camp ohio is a far better place to stay at. Only down fall to both places is there is no watter hookups at either place. So bring your drinking water with ya.

As quadneck said, the best two options are Williams Campground and CampOhio. Both times we have went, we have stayed at Williams. They have showers and electric sites, but the showers are less than clean and the restrooms are pretty bad. I may try Camp Ohio as I heard it is much nicer. Go to CampOhio and if they are full, then go to Williams as it never is completely full. Camping on the trail head is free, but I need a shower at the end of the night and $5 per person is a small price to pay for a shower.

My the best tips for riding Wayne are as follows:
1. Follow the trail markers. They are posted on the trees about every 30-50 yards. If you make a wrong turn and don't see one for awhile, turn around and backtrack until you find one. Some of the unmarked trails can be treacherous, as well as illegal.
2. Try to obtain a map of the trails to aid in knowing where you are.
3. If possible, find someone to ride with that knows the trails.
4. For the most part, the trails are not difficult. The new straitsville loops is the easiest. Dorr Run is very challenging, but fun.
5. Don't forget your trail permits. The park rangers will be checking for them.
Hope this helps.

I just went to the Wayne NF website and printed off the map that was there for the Monday Creek area. I then took a highlighter and highlighted the trails. It is not the best map, but it helps me understand where I am. I think Williams Campground had some trail maps and I would think the ranger station in Athens would also have maps. Hope this helps.

The only real campgrounds that I know of is camp Ohio and camp williams, alot of people camp at some of the parking lots near the trails. Camp williams is right across from the trail head and camp ohio is about 2min. down the road, but you can still ride to the trail head on your quad. Camp williams is a cleared off hill, you can just pick any spot to camp at, I think it's $5 a night to camp there, i'm not sure if they have showers or not. I don't think they do, but I could be wrong. I know camp Ohio has showers. It's $7 a night to camp at camp ohio. We always camp at camp ohio, I just like the surroundings there better,+ the showers. It's always a good time.
