Clayton Geneva Camp Ground began as a retreat for our family since the 70's. My grandparents, Donald Clayton Russell & Jewel Geneva (Davis) Russell, purchased this little piece of heaven to get away from the hustle and bustle of Cincinnati life. Judy was born in a little cabin just down the road. Judy & Don along with many family members have made cherished memories here over the years. We want to share its beauty with you and your family.
Please consider, Clayton Geneva is a primitive campground, gravel drives and left as natural as possible. This is not a sculpted campsite or a concrete campground. The primitive area is as such, gravel, grass, sand terrain accessible by a one lane gravel drive that leads over the hill and around the cliff to the riverbank. This drive is absolutely passable however is left bumpy to keep traffic at a safe speed as pedestrians also walk the drive. It is passable by any vehicle as long as the vehicle is not overloaded beyond its ability and/or has an extremely low profile.
Any area that is not an actual campsite is left to nature, not manicured, trimmed or sculpted. As you’ll find all the sites are clear please don’t expect micromanaging of wild growth of our native plants in areas around the sites as we reserve those areas for the wildlife to enjoy.
Please consider all the above mentioned details, primitive campsites are not for everyone and that’s ok.

We had an absolutely wonderful time here! This place far exceeded our expectations, and the photos simply can't capture its true charm. You really need to see it for yourself. It’s a true love nest. If you're seeking a space that combines simplicity with elegance—where you and your loved one can feel secure and secluded—this is it. The only thing I’d suggest is adding Wi-Fi, as there's no cell service here.

Bridget was an amazing host me and my family will definitely be back ! The views are gorgeous!
Here are are the plus : if you are a normal Hipcamper you will know that some glamping options are better than others. This is one of the good ones! There were little items that helped smooth our trip over Expecally with 4 kids! Pots, pans, seasonings, etc.
Multiple cooking options from griddle, stove & fire pit!
Now here are the things to look for, gps cuts off halfway down the road but Bridget was able to help us navigate to the property. Few outlets to bring a surge protector (we did)
If you have kids, entertainment lol.
And if you’re worried about temp, the heat was KICKING. lol but we had a great time and loved the area. Will be back!

We loved our trip here! It was private, peaceful, beautiful.. the perfect chance to unwind. The property was well taken care of, our kids loved it, me and my husband had a wonderful time just sitting on the porch at the end of night.. you won't regret staying here! If you have very little ones, a baby gate for the steep stairs and a pac n play or pop up pen for the porch would be ideal. But all in all, a perfect family trip

Weekend Trip to The Harrican Lakehouse
We spent a women’s weekend at this lovely lake home in January, and it was such a restorative experience—even with the rain! The house is beautiful, with a thoughtful and welcoming use of space that made it easy for all of us to spread out. Brittney truly has the art of hospitality, and it shows in every detail of the home.
Although it rained most of the weekend, we still spent time outdoors under the porch, mesmerized by the raindrops falling on the lake—a simple but magical experience. The beds were comfortable, making for cozy nights in.
A few suggestions for future guests: bring paper towels, dish soap, a pillow and snuggle blanket for winter, a sponge for the sink, extra toilet paper (especially for three women!), and an open mind for time away. Two of our three phones worked but not consistently, so plan accordingly.
Overall, this is a serene and welcoming home perfect for a getaway with friends. We will be back.

We absolutely loved our stay at Bridgett’s Harrican Lakehouse! The property is exactly as described and the photos are completely accurate. Our family stayed from late December to early January and the cooler weather didn’t stop us from enjoying kayaking, canoeing, hiking, relaxing on the porch, and so much more. We can’t wait to return when the weather is warmer, so we can add swimming and fishing to our list of activities :-)
Bridgett was incredibly kind and communicated regularly before and throughout our stay. I HIGHLY recommend The Harrican Lakehouse and we will definitely be coming back!

We loved our stay at the Harrican Lakehouse. It’s peaceful, clean, and tucked right between the trees and the water — exactly the kind of quiet reset we were hoping for. My husband tried his hand at fishing off the dock, our dog explored freely, and I soaked up the stillness with some cross‑stitching and a soundtrack of 70s Love Songs drifting through the day. Campfires, good food, and even a few rounds of cards made it the perfect weekend getaway.
Notes for Future Visitors
A few practical things that might help you plan:
• The coffee maker is a small one (about 5 cups), so bring a larger one if you need more.
• The indoor stairs are very steep. Our dog could go up with help but needed to be carried/assisted coming down — something to keep in mind if you’re bringing a bigger four‑legged companion.
• There isn’t a traditional grill, but there is a Blackstone. The auto igniter wasn’t working, and there were no matches or a lighter in the cabin. We messaged Bridgett, and she immediately offered to have her husband come light it or to lend us a small charcoal grill. We borrowed the charcoal grill and cooked our steaks with no problem — great hospitality.
Overall, this lakeshore spot is a 10/10 for anyone wanting a calm, cozy escape surrounded by nature.

I loved the lake house! Waking up and watching the ducks on the lake while we prepared breakfast was a delight. We watched newts (we think?) play in the water during the day and walked in the woods. By night, we enjoyed the fire pit and had cozy times in the house playing board games and cuddling with our dogs. This was truly a dream location and can’t wait to come back.

This cabin won me over the moment I walked in. It was warm, cozy, and the loft was surprisingly spacious. The porch is the real showstopper, and even though it was too cold to sit out for long, the views from every window were gorgeous. It even started snowing while we were there, which added this wild, magical atmosphere to the whole stay.
The only downsides were the not-so-comfy seating, the heat being a little too powerful overnight, and the outhouse being a long chilly walk with a very rustic setup. None of it ruined the experience, but it is worth knowing before you go.
Leslie loved the lake and all the open space to explore. I even had to hop in a kayak to fetch her ball when she refused to wade into the cold water, which felt like peak dog mom adventure energy. Slippers were clutch since the floors get cold and they were perfect for padding out onto the porch.
The best moment was watching the sunrise roll in over the misty lake. Quiet, spooky, peaceful, and absolutely beautiful. I would stay again without hesitation.
