Probably wouldn’t stay there again
On the plus side, the directions were very clear, and we had a secluded private campsite. On the negative side, the grass was cut nice and short immediately around the fire pit, but the rest of the campsite had grass that was probably about a foot tall. It was not raining when we arrived, but had rained all that day. So by the time we had set up our tent (which fits over the bed of our truck) our shoes and the bottoms of our pants were very wet, and a little bit muddy. We probably wouldn’t stay here again, unless we were reserving it right before going, and knew that there would be no rain during our stay.

Totally awesome total eclipse!
Tiny grassy clearing approximately 50 feet in diameter, above SR 68 a stones throw but well hidden. We had three vehicles and eight people and there was plenty of room. We parked all three vehicles in the driveway/pulloff. The traffic noise is what you’d expect, but a nice view of the sky. It was perfect for the eclipse!

Great little secret spot.
Great little spot right on the outskirts of Y.S. I actually use to work The Hammond Farm across the street in high school from Y.S. all the way to Knickerbocker. Very cozy and private. Would be an excellent spot for mushroom hunting. Kids had a blast.

Pros & Cons
PROS: Very close to Yellow Springs, Glen Helen Nature Preserve, Clifton Gorge and John Bryan State Park.
It's a completely secluded site. From the main driveway you take two short left turns to pull into your circular camp site. You don't see the road or houses.
CONS: It's right on a 55 MPH road so it's noisy.
A lot of the camp site had super long grass that was matted down. (from walking on? tents?) Needs better upkeep.
I was only at the site for about 30 min when I realized I had a big car issue and needed to leave and get home. I texted Angie, thru HipCamp, my issue and stated how I was there but couldn't stay. It's over a week later and she never replied asking how my car was doing or refunded my money. Shows a bit of inhumanity. Disappointed.
