Answer
Not sure how private you mean...

We camp at the state parks and have never had a bad experience..

We live in SW part and love East Fork... Stonelick is nice as well.

East Fork has a lot of sites, that you can pitch a tent in the "woods" and not just on the grass by the road...

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:
