Turkey Hollow is nestled in the rolling hills of Holmes County Ohio. We are right on the edge of the largest Amish settlement in the nation. The primitive campground is in the corner of a small 40 acre farm owned by Matt Polcyn. He started the campground 13 years ago because of his love for nature and real camping. He enjoys traveling in many places in the States and the Caribbean islands and loves finding places off of the beaten path and not commercialized. Because of his interest and love for primitive camping he decided to open the campground in order to provide the same opportunity as a getaway primitive camping location that he tries to find when he travels. We now just added a shower in the trees, warm water rinse off area. (this is available between Memorial Day and until it get too cold again in the fall) We have WiFi available in most of the camp now. It is Turkey Hollow Guest. Text Matt for the password

Enter the Campground from Township Road 102 only. The GPS sometimes will try to bring you in a gravel driveway from CR 58, this is not correct. Keep going down 58 and turn left on Township Rd 102 Our little campground is nestled in the corner of one of our pasture fields and surrounded by trees and nature. There is a rustic driveway all the way down to the camping area. There is a larger open area the campers can set up tents and also multiple sites in the woods where campers can enjoy the seclusion and beauty of nature. There is a small stream below the campground that they are welcome to explore and we have some trails mowed that can be hiked. We are a pet friendly campground but we just ask that you keep a close eye on your pets and don't allow them to chase or disturb the cattle on the farm. There are fields down around the campground and in the spring campers will quite often see cattle and even new baby calves with their mothers. The cattle are very tame but don't try to pet them. There is a 3/4 acre pond above the campground that the campers are welcome to fish in the pond and if they swim they must do it at their own risk. Price is based on 11 years old and older, Children 10 and under are free. The lower area campground that has signs say reservations only called Kermit’s Bottom is only to be camped in when approved by Matt. It is for larger groups. You must make reservations for the group area through the Kermit's Group Camping Listing. We do have a couple of sites also that you must have 4x4 to get to and you also need to talk to Matt beforehand. We try to provide firewood available for purchase at all times but there will be times when I’m not able to do that so you can bring a saw or hatchet and cut any down wood in the woods. Also toilet paper is some thing that you should bring because at times the Porta-Johns run out. If you are a bicyclist coming from the trail make sure you exit the trail at Walmart and map up county road 58 to get to the camp (2.5miles), that way is blacktop otherwise it will bring you in the gravel side. We now have an outdoor warm water rinse off area in the trees. Primitive camping has its own risks associated with it, anyone camping at Turkey Hollow acknowledges that risk by camping here and will not hold Turkey Hollow or its owner liable for any injuries or damage that might take place while camping here.

Review summary
Generated from real Hipcamper reviews
Turkey Hollow Campground offers a peaceful retreat with a rustic charm, where guests can enjoy nature's beauty surrounded by tall trees and a serene atmosphere. While some visitors appreciated the privacy and spaciousness of the campsites, others noted the challenging access roads, particularly for cyclists. The presence of playful kittens and roaming chickens added a unique touch to the experience, though noise from a nearby race track and other campers could be a slight distraction. Overall, guests found it a relaxing getaway, though they advised checking the race schedule beforehand to ensure a quieter stay.

Camped in a 16 ft car at Rustic Camping in Turkey Hollow, Oct 2026.
It was okay
It was fine for my purposes. I had been scoping it out for possibly staying there while biking OTET. Be warned that it's a challenging uphill bike from trail to campground on winding narrow road. Maybe okay on an e-bike, but would be challenging for me on a fully loaded touring bike.
