In May of 2011, Travel Resorts
of America purchased Wally World
Camping Resort, renaming the
resort to Wally World Riverside
Resort, keeping with the campground
name's origin and riverside location.
The campground is named for the
Walhonding Railroad, which was nick-
named Wally Railroad. In the
early 1900's the railroad was a
43 mile stretch that ran between
Loudonville and Coshocton, Ohio. Its original
purpose was coal transportation but in its later
years it was utilized much more as a passenger
rail and was known as the "most beautiful train
ride in Ohio." Later, when the Muskingum
Watershed Conservatory District was formed,
several flood-control dams were built in the
region as part of a master plan. However, in
building the Mohican Dam, the Wally rail line
was essentially split in half making it useless
for rail use. So the former railroad was
converted to a road, becoming Wally Road, which then and still now, runs adjacent to the Mohican River. The addition of World to Wally came into play, as you might have guessed, after the movie National Lampoon's Vacation, starring Chevy Chase, came out in the 1980's and Riverside was added by Travel Resorts of America to express your ability to camp on the riverbanks of the Mohican River while at Wally World Riverside Resort.

As for the location of our resort, you just can't get any better. Wally World is located on 26 acres of riverfront property and when you drive down the 5 mile stretch on Wally Road through the forest and travel next to the Mohican River to get to the resort, you'll see and understand why this area is a huge playground for big kids like us, as well as young kids too! The area is called "Ohio's Largest Outdoor Complex" and is a great place to visit. There is so much to do and see in the area: canoeing, boating, fishing, hiking, zip lining, mini-golf, go-carts and so much more.

Although we have some love to give the resort still, we anticipate Wally World to be a stellar property in the very near future and undoubtedly be the "Jewel of the Mohican"! Travel Resorts of America is grateful and excited to own Wally World Riverside Resort and is working to make it a top-shelf camping vacation destination! We are super happy to be in the Buckeye State and would love for you to visit us soon.
