Customer Reviews
The Cardinal Center is my absolute favorite place to shoot and camp. The pond is cool for fishing and the pool is nice and clean. The people there are super nice and the service is great at the camp office. There’s also a restaurant nearby that usually has live music and pretty decent food. The golf cart rental is super easy and affordable and that makes it very helpful to get around. it is such an awesome place to go to and I highly recommend checking it out for a weekend.
The trap houses throw White Flyer targets which are the best. I try to shoot 4 events during the summer. The participants are very friendly and makes this a great place to shoot. Lots of vendors to buy guns, trap shells and accessories.
We visited this campground for my family's annual Mother/Daughter Camp Out. We usually book at Alum Creek, but they were sold out, so we tried this location for RV full hookup. We were able to pick a site directly along the road that runs parallel to I-71. There were a row of trees that blocked the view. This site gave us more room and the privacy that we wanted for our RV and 2 tents. Further down the row, there really isn't much privacy between RV hookups. At Alum Creek, each site is in an alcove, so it feels like your own space. We could hear the busy highway traffic, which was louder during the day than at night. After a while It became white noise, so it wasn't too bad. If you need to run to the store for anything, there is a Dollar General a few miles up the road. This DG had fresh produce! I was impressed. I've not seen this in our Columbus DG locations, but it makes sense since there are no larger grocery stores in that immediate area. All in all, we would revisit this location. The grounds were well kept, and we felt safe.
Camped at this camp ground for 2 nights. Said they had public WIFI, we tried to connect but it never worked. They have 2 towers, but it didn't work. They have an indoor pool for campers, but it was so ungodly hot in the building, no one could swim in there. They have had numerous complaints of both issues, yet they don't want to fix the issues. Camp sites are super small unless you get a deluxe camp site.. We were lucky enough there were cancellations, so we got a deluxe site for the same cost. Tons of campsites, all are gravel some with grass. Lots of walking areas. Didn't use the facilities. Not a great camp ground, Average at most. Wouldn't recommend. We won't be back.
Went to watch my nephews team shoot in the Nationals. His teams comes up from Texas every year. What a facility, it seemed to go on and on different areas for different events. If you're in to watching some exciting target shooting, you have to check it out. Right off the freeway at exit 140 on interstate 71.
Overnighting during a March mid-week night, we had the run of the park. We were the only ones in the big rig area. Office staff were SUPER friendly on the phone to make reservation (and when I called enroute to say we would arrive after hours). No water at the site in the winter (we knew that in advance). Water is available on site to fill your tank.
