Blue Rock is straight out of a woodland fairy tale. Seriously, don’t be surprised if pixies flutter over to help you pitch your tent. Dainty wildflowers dot the forest’s lush undergrowth. Deer, grouse, squirrel and wild turkey are just a few of the creatures that call the park home (and might become your new best friend). Believe it or not, the park’s beauty is, in part, thanks to The Great Depression. Economic woes forced farmers to abandon their lands, which allowed them revert back to dense forest (Thanks, GDP).The waters of Cutler Lake provide ample boating, paddling, fishing and swimming with picnic areas on its shores. There’s a diversity of camping accommodations at Blue Rock, from uber-rustic to downright swanky. No matter where you slumber, don’t be surprised if you wake up sprinkled with a little magic fairy dust.

Hunt in the adjacent Zaleski State Forest or catch some crappie or bluegill in the expansive lake for some fresher than fresh dinner. If you're not in the mood for cooking your catch or devouring another can of baked beans, consider moseying over to Lake Hope Lodge, which will treat your palate to hickory smoked barbecue and smoked meats and sides by the pound. Cushy beaches, interpretive center exhibits, and a variety of ball courts will burn those calories off in no time.

Two public beaches and volleyball courts mean you'll have to bring your favorite bathing suit. With all the calm vibes emanating from Lake Alma, don't resist the relaxation, just bask in its glory.

Pack your best bait, because Wolf Run State Park is the perfect spot for your next fishing trip. Whether you snag some trout, bluegill, crappie, or catfish, the only missing ingredient will be a container of some Old Bay seasoning. Boating up to 10 horsepower is also permitted along the lake, and don't forget to take advantage of the sprawling 200 feet of beach perfect for a refreshing dip. If you're really feeling daring, bring that scuba diving equipment as well. Walk one of several trails around the campground or to the nature center, where you can watch wildlife amplified. Wolf Run State Park—it's quite the catch.

Blue Rock is straight out of a woodland fairy tale. Seriously, don’t be surprised if pixies flutter over to help you pitch your tent. Dainty wildflowers dot the forest’s lush undergrowth. Deer, grouse, squirrel and wild turkey are just a few of the creatures that call the park home (and might become your new best friend). Believe it or not, the park’s beauty is, in part, thanks to The Great Depression. Economic woes forced farmers to abandon their lands, which allowed them revert back to dense forest (Thanks, GDP).The waters of Cutler Lake provide ample boating, paddling, fishing and swimming with picnic areas on its shores. There’s a diversity of camping accommodations at Blue Rock, from uber-rustic to downright swanky. No matter where you slumber, don’t be surprised if you wake up sprinkled with a little magic fairy dust.

Leftovers of an abandoned mine give Lake Hope State Park its rustic charm, where a nearly 3,000-acre lake provides ample opportunity for outdoor fun in the sun. Seven hiking paths and eight biking trails mean you'll have multiple chances to discover the steep gorges that characterize this densely forested area. Hunt in the adjacent Zaleski State Forest or catch some crappie or bluegill in the expansive lake for some fresher than fresh dinner. If you're not in the mood for cooking your catch or devouring another can of baked beans, consider moseying over to Lake Hope Lodge, which will treat your palate to hickory smoked barbecue and smoked meats and sides by the pound. Cushy beaches, interpretive center exhibits, and a variety of ball courts will burn those calories off in no time.

Watch that heart rate drop as you relax to the fullest at Lake Alma State Park. A tranquil 60-acre lake and quiet gurgling creek winding its way through the landscape means inner peace here is almost imminent. One of three fairly short trails provide the setting for a chilled-out walk, where ancient woodlands make a home for birds like the great-horned owl and woodpecker. Launch your canoe, kayak, or rowboat on the northeast edge of the lake for a nice float, or take your furry friend for a dip in the specially designated dog swimming area. Two public beaches and volleyball courts mean you'll have to bring your favorite bathing suit. With all the calm vibes emanating from Lake Alma, don't resist the relaxation, just bask in its glory.

We had an excellent time! We didn’t get to explore much around the camping area due to weather, but we stayed very warm with the wood stove! Everything was so cute and the amenities were so nice! We ended up being over prepared because so much was already provided. Located perfectly to go spend the day at the multiple surrounding parks and trail systems!

J was very hospitable and the space was perfect for a weekend away with my husband. We camped here in January, so it was pretty cold outside but so cozy with the wood burning stove inside the cabin. There are lots of trails to explore the property and are easily accessible from the cabin. The hills are steep though, but worth the climb!

Weekend Trip to Woody Acres
We had a wonderful time at the Peppermint Patty Wagon. Austin and Kate were great hosts!
The P.P.W. was a nice camping trailer.
The outdoor kitchen is right up near trailer. We had booked fishing with Austin, that went good. We could not catch any fish because of the weather now, but Austin was too good at it. He even taught us filleting and that was sweet.
We didn’t get to see much of Kate, she was off with her work. But Austin was around like always when we needed something. Also, genuinely impressed by Austin’s knowledge.
Thank you for making that happen!

Awesome little cabin. My girlfriend and I are used to car camping so this was a huge upgrade haha but the cabin is everything that you need on a camping trip. A place to stay out of the elements, a bathroom, a couple of beds, and a little bit of land to yourself. Nothing overboard and everything you need. Worth noting; the owner was very on top of responding back. Very polite and definitely put a lot of thought into the guests with the cabin. Definitely recommend!

Amazing campground, and Austin & Kate were awesome. Highly recommend whether it's hot or cold, this place takes care of you. And be sure to just buy their wood for your fires, it's cheaper than Kroger, and it burns way longer.
Can't wait to bring my kids here, they'd have an absolute blast.

Wife and I had all we needed at the Nature Camper. Camper has water, hot water, stove, oven, fridge, microwave, and a Solo Firepit on the private deck. Lots of charm inside, more like a tiny house with completely new appliances and birch walls. Best of all you are on 500 private acres.
We hiked part of the 10 miles of trails in total privacy. Site also has huge grassy tent area you can expand into with large fire-pit - comes with the camper so no neighbors.
Owner’s family goes back to the original log cabin, that is still there off one of the trails. Owner has made his own private preserve, He was interesting, respectful and responsive. Camper pdf had all the details you need.
Easy drive to Marietta Ohio River historic areas, shopping, dining, activities, and Wayne NF trails. No cell or WiFi but it comes in as you drive down the road. Unplug and enjoy!
