Is there anywhere I can set up a tent and camp out near or on Headlands beach in Ohio?

Answer
Mentor Headlands doesn't allow camping, and I'm not aware of any campgrounds near Mentor. If you want a Lake Erie beach camping experience, the best and closest possibilities are the Lake Erie islands or East Harbor or Geneva state parks:

Kelly's Island, a 25-minute ferry ride from Sandusky, recently was named one of the healthiest/most affordable beaches in the U.S.

Camping at South Bass Island also would offer easy access to Put-in-Bay, located on the island, but the park doesn't offer swimming.

Presque Isle near Erie, Pa., offers among the best beaches on Lake Erie, and private campgrounds are located nearby:

Waldameer Amusement Park adjacent to Presque Isle is an additional attraction:

Here's a private beach camping option in Pennsylvania a little nearer to Ohio than Presque Isle:

We're in Northeast Ohio (Akron) Looking for some campgrounds near or not too far...Even right out of state if its really good...We have 2 kids ages 4 and 2 - So family related places are good. We are also tent camping.

East of you in PA there is a National Forest

OH & PA both have plenty of Corps campgrounds which I like because most of the campsites are usually on the water.
