Out with the old, in with the new!!

Happy new year to all of our wonderful and loyal campers, water park patrons, festival attendees, and group outing guests.  2011 was a great year and we are looking forward to another FANTASTIC season in 2012....

We hope that you got a chance to come and visit us at the RV Show in Cleveland, Ohio this past weekend!  Many campers stopped by our booth and shared their memories and stories with us.  Other campers were busy UPGRADING and buying new RVs.  We have learned that the new mindset around RV camping is "GO BIG!!"  At Clay's Park, we are here to accomodate your NEWER and BIGGER recreational vehicle.  We are upgrading the electric to 50 amp throughout the park.  Call us today to learn how we can accomodate your newer and bigger campers!

Speaking of new... have you checked out our NEW website?? Visit www.clayspark.com to see the new style!! We hope you find it easy to navigate and we would love to hear your feedback!!  Our website is just one of the many new and fresh ideas we have coming in 2012.

Seasonal Camping at Clay's Park Resort

Happy Holidays from Clay's Park!! We hope you had a WONDERFUL Thanksgiving and that you have many blessings in your life to be thankful for.

Christmas and New Years are right around the corner and Clay's Park is getting ready for our annual Seasonal Camper Holiday Party!  Every year we invite our seasonal campers out for a party at our restaurant and lodge!  We provide the ham, and campers are encouraged to bring a side dish to share.  This year we will be having an ugly sweater contest.  Don't worry... if you are not a seasonal camper, we will post pictures so you can enjoy the fun as well!  These parties are always a great time!  Rumor has it there will be a visit from Santa and Mrs. Claus again this year, and possibly even a hayride through the snowy campground.  Our seasonal campers are also invited to come camping during the weekend of the holiday party!

So why am I telling you all of this?  Well, if you are a seasonal camper, you already know how AWESOME it is to have Clay's Park as your summer home.  However, if you are not, I would like to give a glimpse of some of our fantastic season camper benefits.

1.  The holiday party I just described!  I'm telling you, it is a great way to really get into the joy of the season.  PLUS, all of our seasonal site holders and youth party attendees get a GIFT from Clay's Park.  Yup, that's right.... Santa has some serious competition this year!

2.  The Country Fest, Fantastic 4th Of July Firework Display, Rock The Resort, Beach Dig, Yankee Peddler Festival, Wicked Weekends.......

3. Planning a get together, party, or reunion?!  As a seasonal camper, our beautiful lodge or our pavilion in Music Row is available for your to rent at no additional cost!  Yup, FREE!  So invite your friends out and host a party next summer!  (Reservations are required and seasonal guest fees apply).

4.  So.... maybe you have been to the Water Park or attended one of our festivals, and now you are wondering to yourself... "Clay's Park has a full service campground?"  Yes we do!!  If you haven't taken a tour, now is the time!  Campground amenities include:  heated indoor pool, hot tub, sauna, spa, miniature golf, Adventure Water Park (of course), John O's restaurant and bar, white sand volleyball, basketball courts, and tennis courts! We truly have something for everyone!

5.  Our campground activities are guaranteed to keep you entertained!  We always have something planned.  From a family DJ every Saturday night at our campground pavilion, to farmers markets, pirate parties, crafting classes, cooking demonstrations, and astronomy programs.  We would love to hear your recommendations for activities you would like to see in 2012!

6.  Make memories that will last a lifetime while forming friendships with neighbors.  At Clay's Park, you are family.

OK, if I haven't told you enough all ready, check out some of these testimonials...
