Stories from the community

1 night at The Camp Cabin at the Hallstead

Really enjoyed our time at the cabin! The hosts were fabulous, kind and friendly! The cabin was super cute, well decorated, and clean. It was our first “glamping” experience and the whole family had fun ☺️

Weekend Trip to The Camp Cabin at the Hallstead

We enjoyed our stay. Weather was rainy so we didn’t have a campfire. However, everything was provided to do so. The cabin was nice and had a cozy feel. We would definitely visit again.

Weekend Trip to CHERRY VALLEY CHILL

Great place with everything you need for a fun getaway with friends

Weekend Trip to Bill S. and Nancy's property

Beautiful and serene property that is perfect for large and small groups. We had a quick stay and would have loved to been able to enjoy the surroundings more than we did. Thank you Bill!

2 nights at Bill S. and Nancy's property

Bill met us in the driveway and we chatted a bit. He showed us where our site was and headed off in front of us to deliver a fire ring and pre-purchased wood. He also allowed us to fill our tank with his hose which was very helpful! No problem pulling in to spot. Plenty of room for camper and truck. Bill made sure we settled in then went off to see to the site for another trailer which was due to arrive shortly. Once they arrived and were also properly welcomed and settled in, Bill came back to chat while we were cooking dinner. My other half drove tractor trailers for quite a while and Bill is a retired driver so they had stories to share! We asked Bill about biking in the area and if there were any local breweries. He gave us directions to sandy creek bike trail and big rail brewing. Both were excellent! Biking on rail trail had numerous bridges to cross with great views and a 1000 ft railroad tunnel to ride thru. Brewery had live music just setting up and was on a great property. Adirondack chairs, picnic tables, barstools, many choices to relax. Indoor bar as well as food trucks and a beer truck outside too! Loved the IPA!

Weekend Trip to Barrel Run Creek

The site was perfect for our weekend. The view of the creek was gorgeous and the tall trees kept everything covered and cool. The space was perfect for the two of us and our two dogs to enjoy being dogs. Plenty of wood and an axe to chop for firewood. It was truly perfect for us.

Weekend Trip to Barrel Run Creek

The site was very private and had plenty of room!

3 nights at The Camp Cabin at the Hallstead

Even though it rained the majority of the time we were there, we still enjoyed everything they had to offer. The kiddos loved the trampoline and playground and of course the animals was a blast for all of us. Thank you for having us!

Weekend Trip to Bass and Buck Tent Adventures

This was our second trip to Rick's property and we again had a great time! Rick is an awesome and friendly host. Thanks again.

Weekend Trip to Camping at Heritage Farms

Weekend Trip to Camping at Heritage Farms

Perfect spot for our bikepacking trip. The dropped off some extra water as soon as we showed up.

1 night at Three Dog Homestead

Right outside of town and close to Cleveland. Nice private spot. Great stay!

1 night at Camping at Heritage Farms

Had a very pleasant stay. The shelter was cozy in the intermittent drizzle and has a nice view out over the farm. Lots of lightning bugs at night too, which was cool. #5 is a short walk from the parking lot so is convenient, but not so close that I was bothered by or even really noticed any activity there. And it’s a quick drive to all the trails in the area. I’d definitely like to stay here again.

2 nights at Camping at Heritage Farms

fabulous stay! beautiful, serene, and easy to find & navigate. quite a walk from the parking lot to my campsite (i chose one of the farther ones), but the wheelbarrows were extremely helpful. totally worth it for the peace & quiet and the amazing views. thank you!

1 night at Camping at Heritage Farms

We stayed here to be able to see Cuyahoga national park and the campground was very clean, well put together, and it was fun to camp amongst the Christmas trees. It was a great place to camp and Carol and George were very helpful and good hosts!

3 nights at Camping at Heritage Farms

Will def be back to camp again! Tent site F is in the middle of the farm, not too far away from the parking lot and porta potties, and not too bad to lug your stuff with the provided wheelbarrows. Had both shade and sun, and a couple trees to hang my hammock from. Plenty of birds to watch and listen to in the morning! (But also watch out for bird poop on your tent if you set it up on the wooden planks.) Good spot for privacy! Thanks for the great campsite :)

1 night at Bill S. and Nancy's property

We had a great time camping here. Our tent site was very quiet and serene. Bill was a great host to us and made sure we weee comfortable and knew where everything was.

2 nights at Camping at Heritage Farms

We loved camping at Heritage Farms! Our site was set back away from the road on a hill with shade and a lovely breeze. Carol was very friendly and helped us with the check in process. Wheelbarrows were provided to bring camping gear to the site which was greatly appreciated.

3 nights at The Cleveland Winery Vino Veritas

It was a perfect location for what we needed for our trip. Anthony was very friendly and accommodating.

He had a cabin on one of the bluffs along the river. In the 1820's there was a water powered sawmill, flaxseed mill, and forge on the river. The boy scouts used the valley for a camp in the 1920,s. My grandpa purchased the property in the 50's from Ohio Edison. Ohio Edison's plan to dam up the river for hydro power never materialized. The valley has been a favorite for outdoor enthusiasts.

Camping at Heritage Farms

47 sites · Lodging, Tents115 acres · Peninsula, OH

At Heritage Farms, we’re currently a 5th-generation, family-owned and -operated Christmas tree farm headed by my husband, George, and me, Carol. Originally founded in 1848 by my great uncle Lawson Waterman, it was my father who shifted our primary focus to cultivating Christmas trees in 1955. George and I took the reins in 1979 and have been happily continuing the tradition of growing trees while also expanding into other areas, including celebrating Halloween with our month-long Pumpkin Pandemonium in October. We’ve also taken to hosting the Peninsula Flea during the summer months, catering to a wide variety of artisan- and craftsman-centric clientele. As for camping, we began eight years ago following a trip George and I took to Denmark, wherein we stayed in a number of outdoor shelters that would later inspire us to construct the first of our several Adirondack-style shelters. We’ve since expanded to offering six shelters total, three of which share the same Adirondack aesthetic of our original build, and three of which take inspiration from an open-air A-frame design. Along with those shelters, we’ve mapped out nine primitive tent sites, all of which are available for rent, spring through fall—we hope to see you here! Heritage Farms is a 5th-generation, 115-acre farm located in the heart of the scenic Cuyahoga Valley National Park, and as such we are incredibly close to the various trails located across the Cuyahoga Valley.

All shelter sites include closure devices for privacy and protection. Our Glamping site (numbered as Campsite 3) features an upgraded Adirondack shelter that includes a complimentary mattress, screen door and fasteners, exterior curtain, lean-to awning, and full propane grill and tool set. Also included is a furnished campfire ring featuring rustic bench seating and chairs. It’s a perfect site for large groups! Included for use by all campers is our Games Field, located by our lower gravel lot, adjacent to campsites A and B.

Bending Oak Permaculture Farm

20 sites · Lodging, Tents25 acres · Youngstown, OH

Bending Oak Farm is an educational farm on 25 formerly clear cut acres. We are committed to our mission creating a more sustainable world by showing people what is possible. Through classes, workshops, school tours, community programs and hands-on experiences, we look to demonstrate attainable practices to better the lives of all people. We invite you to come and experience how you can create a more sustainable life for you, your family, friends and your community. To ensure an environment that is family friendly and mitigate the risk of injury Bending Oak does not permit alcoholic beverages or recreational drugs at the farm. Guests who stay in one of our permaculture cabins are participating in a permaculture design process where the goal is to create a system of abundance. During your stay, you will be challenged to think differently about how you go about meeting your daily needs. By design, you will encounter limits to the typical expectations of your living space, which grants you the opportunity to think deeply about what really is important to you and join us in exploring effective possibilities in meeting these expectations. After all, necessity is the mother of invention. This is our first study of building a sustainable living environment. We started with a blank slate, a new system designed with the permaculture principles in mind and the intention of ultimately creating a living space with the creature comforts we have all grown accustomed to. Eventually we will be building the next round of accommodations (principal: Small & Slow Solutions). When staying in one of our cabins, you are participating in this process by sharing with us your experience (principal: Observe & Interact), letting us know what you have discovered you can and can not live without, and possible solutions to efficiently address those needs and wants (principal: Apply Self Regulation & Accept Feedback). We look forward to your stay with us and your participation in creating abundance in this living space!
