I take it you had a great time.
 
 What do you consider pricey?
 
 If you plan on going often you may want to consider the Cardinal Card ($25).  You get ....
 15% off all camping fees and camping option programs, April through October
 20% off all camping fees, November through March
 It is only good for Ohio SP s, but good for a full year from the month in which you purchase it.
 
 We had never heard about it till I was doing a search for some SP s and seen a " little"  thing for discounts.  In the last 3 months we have already saved the $25.00.

hmmm...having trouble leaving msgs still
 
 anyway...we paid 25 a nite for a premiums site (but all i could smell was old urine which i should have reported...cuz that would mean someone was dumping into the lake behind us....
 
 regular sites are 23 and the rentals which is a great deal where only 31.  at our state parks, its 16 with electric.
 
 but even tho the state manages it...alum is federal...so not sure the card woud work there...but may look into the card.
 
 is mohican state a nice campground...saw it was between me and alum creek

Someone I work with has a family reunion there every year and they all tent camp.  Not sure about it, except they keep going back, so they must like it.
 
 GLPUC camps at " Mohican Wilderness"   (private) it is very nice.  Both times we ve gone, I have been very sick while being there.  Just me, so I haven t really enjoyed myself, but everyone else has.  Mohican Wilderness does have a " frequent visitor"  card of some sort.  We live about 4hrs away, so we haven t checked into it.
 
 As far as the Cardinal Card goes, Alum Creek is listed as a SP, so I would assume so.  You can also call at 614-265-6513.  I can make the call if you wish.

Just keep playing around on the park website and I felt ours is kinda hidden.  OH also gives discounts for veterans.
