31 ft Class C

Weekend Trip to Hilltop Resorts and Campgrounds

Nice quiet location. Still a bit off season so not many people around. We fit nicely on the pad with our 31 foot class C and car. Minimal leveling needed in our site. Great location close to Logan, Hocking State Park, and Nelsonville. We visited the Jack Pine glass studio and the Rocky boot outlet. Everyone at campground was friendly and helpful. The facilities were clean which definitely wins points with me!!

4 nights at Pop's Place Camping

Pop's Place, Moose Cabin, was fantastic as were the hosts, Ed and Michelle! The cabin was pristine, clean, warm, and very well maintained. Michelle and Ed are very responsive to messages and are continuously improving camp. Although it rained all four days, we still had a great time and appreciated the hosts recommendations for rainy day activities. The shower was an added bonus and was pleasantly warm. I hope to return in the future! Thanks Ed and Michelle!

Weekend Trip to RusticAppalachian Cabin on BeefFarm

Cute cabin and great spot to stay. Right next to a little pond.

6 nights at Chipmunk Ridge

I had a wonderful time here. We stayed for a week and got to experience several thunder storms. Peaceful and serene location will lots of amenities. About a 30 min drive to the nearest town for resupply. While there is no TV there is WiFi and a small desk with a PC display and HDMI cable that I was able to plug into so I could complete some work. The shower, stove, and toilet all made the stay very comfortable. The wood burning stove was excellent as was the hvac system with A/C and heat, a refrigerator, and propane range in the kitchen. Would definitely stay again. Perfect for a romantic stay.

Weekend Trip to Geode Nature Domes

The site was very well maintained and wonderful for feeling a part of nature while still having some shelter from the elements and creepy crawlies. The only negatives were the fact that the bathroom was down a bit of a steep hill that was completely dark after sunset so was hard to navigate down and when we did we found that the toilet was out of commission so we ended up having to leave pretty early the next day so we could find a working bathroom.

5 nights at Yourway Camp

Great hosts, awesome site with sounds of small stream and privacy yet close enough to hocking hills hiking for easy day hikes. Hot shower and ample firewood are extra bonuses! Would definitely stay again!

Weekend Trip to Geode Nature Domes

Had a great weekend alone here. It was exactly what I needed. Very clean, unique, and well made!! Marci was very kind and I was lucky enough to meet her mother who has lived there 20+ years (I think!). Can’t wait to go back and may also hold a group retreat in her amazing meditative dome. The perfect 50 min escape if you are in Columbus.

Weekend Trip to Pop's Place Camping

I really enjoyed my stay. Ed and Michelle are wonderful hosts. They possessed positive vibes and a welcoming spirit. The space was sufficient and peaceful. I look forward to another stay.

Weekend Trip to Geode Nature Domes

The dome is so beautiful, magical and peaceful. I have loved every visit to the dome and Marci is such a beautiful soul ❤️

Weekend Trip to Geode Nature Domes

Clean and cozy - it was a unique little getaway for hubby and I. Even though it was a bit nippy outside, the heated blanket and small heater kept it comfy inside for us. Thanks Marci!

Weekend Trip to RusticAppalachian Cabin on BeefFarm

As always, I truly enjoyed our stay at your cabin. The simplicity of the space was exactly what I needed—a perfect retreat from the noise of everyday life. Waking up to the stillness, stepping outside to see the frozen pond glistening in the crisp air, and just soaking in the peace and quiet was an absolute gift. It’s rare to find a place where time seems to slow down, and this was one of those special places. Thank you for sharing this little slice of tranquility—I’m already looking forward to coming back!

2 nights at Yourway Camp

Nice remote feel to it. South facing ridge so in Fall/Winter you can see both sunrise and sunset from site 3. My little 2006 Honda CRV got up there no problem, with a caveat that my I have trail tires on it (Falken Wildpeaks A/T Trail). Put it in first gear and turn off the VSA. Keep a constant lo speed to climb the hill to the amazing campsite. Gunning it will cause tires to spin and lose grip.

Weekend Trip to Hilltop Resorts and Campgrounds

It was a beautiful area and all the fall colors were perfect.

Weekend Trip to Hilltop Resorts and Campgrounds

We stayed in a pull-thru RV spot. The location is very clean and quiet. We needed bundles of firewood after normal hours and they were kind and answered and brought us 2 bundles. We will camp here next time we go to Hocking Hills.

Weekend Trip to Pop's Place Camping

We had a great time at the Bear Cabin. It was clean and comfortable…just the right amount of “creaturely comforts” (beds, heat, bathroom, coffee pot, fridge) for a pleasant stay while maintaining a similar feel to camping. The location was very quiet and peaceful. Just as advertised.

Weekend Trip to Yourway Camp

Host was great and very accommodating. Site 3 was very nice and secluded. Would definitely recommend.

Weekend Trip to Cozy mountain log cabin

Our weekend stay at the cabin was incredible! It was clean, cozy, and had all the amenities we needed (including a hot tub). William was also a great host. He checked in as soon as we arrived to make sure we were all set. When I had a question, he responded quickly and was very gracious!
