Weekend Trip to Private Forest Campsite

Beth so was nice and welcoming! We had a blast and will definitely be back!

1 night at Hideaway Hills Primitive Camp

We had the best time at Hideaway Hills! The site itself is spacious and beautifully laid out with plenty of room to spread out, unwind, and truly enjoy nature. The hosts thought of everything: they provided fresh water, a fire starter, and even a lighter, which made getting settled in super easy. The site was much larger than expected (pictures def don’t do it justice!) and we had plenty of room for us to spread out, which is nice when traveling with teenagers. The privacy tent and camp toilet were thoughtful touches that made the primitive setup feel so much more comfortable. My husband and I really enjoyed our coffee in the morning on the deck while the kids slept in, soaking in the peaceful surroundings before the day got going. Fishing was absolutely amazing (the catfish are HUGE) and the nearby hiking trails were well marked and full of wildlife. We saw deer just off the trail, and the kids got a kick out of the owls hooting all around us. Even though we didn’t bring our dogs this time, we definitely will next time! The site is incredibly dog-friendly, with water bowls, treats, and the sweetest resident dogs It’s rare to find a place that feels this peaceful and secluded, yet so welcoming. Kelli and Doug went so above and beyond, you instantly feel like family. Can’t wait to come back!

Weekend Trip to Triple D Retreat

We had a great time tent camping at this site, it was clean and well taken care of. The area is beautiful and the wood bundles we got were top notch hard wood. We were impressed and will be staying again soon!

Weekend Trip to Buck Run RV Retreat

This was our second time staying at this campground, and it was just as great as we remembered! This time, my brother’s family and our mom joined us, which made it even more special. The kids had a blast fishing, and we all enjoyed walking the peaceful trails together. The hosts are absolutely wonderful—friendly, welcoming, and made sure we had everything we needed. It’s such a relaxing spot with plenty to do but also perfect for just unwinding. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

Weekend Trip to Trothwood Forest

Whispering pines was a great site!! Jim and his wife are very nice people. The site it's self was very quiet, with multiple trees to choose from to hang a hammock from. There is also plenty of room for a tent as well.

1 night at Hideaway Hills Primitive Camp

I’ve stayed at this campground multiple times, and I have to say—it’s one of the best, if not the best. The hosts go above and beyond to make your stay even better, whether it’s bringing you an extra lighter or helping you up the hill to your campsite. They’ve got you covered! This is my favorite place to camp, and I’ll keep coming back—so should you!

Weekend Trip to Private Forest Campsite

Beth’s land is so beautiful!!! The weather wasn’t great the weekend we were there but we still had such a great time. We were able to hike a little bit and see some of the land!! As well as some of the farm animals! Beth is so accommodating and sweet… the best host! We will definitely be booking again soon(hopefully with better weather!!)

Weekend Trip to Limestone Bluffs

The Wolves Retreat site was quiet, private and surrounded by nature. The wooden platform was ideal for our screen house as it chose to rain most of our stay. We have a small teardrop and it fit in the site just fine but the grading of site limits your options. We didn’t want to get too creative as the ground was wet and didn’t want to get stuck. There are a few other sites on the property but only heard others if they were walking on the loop road by our site. The loop could use a little more gravel in places but other wise a nice road to the sites. There is firewood for sale but it was wet as the shed it was stored in wasn’t covered enough. The host was quite responsive with the reservation and in providing details. We walked around the trails and the other sites seem nice too. The Bluffs is only 1.5 hours from home for us and most likely we will be back again.

Weekend Trip to Triple D Retreat

The covered shelter area with the picnic table was great to have as the area experienced some massive rain during my stay. Great to be able to set up everything not have to worry about getting soaked. I'm sure in the summer it provides some great shade also. I requested some bundles of wood for the stay. Was not sure how much firewood would be avabile close by. The wood was dry and burned easily, even with the amount of rain we had. I would offer a suggestion to the owner. When I pulled up, there were turkey hunters hanging out and thought it was part of the forest. Was not a big deal. They packed up and left within a few minutes. To avoid confusion, I would put up some private property postings.

Weekend Trip to Feather Ridge - Hocking Hills Camp

The camp sites were beautiful, you could still hear the road from time to time. Otherwise it was rather primitive.

3 nights at Private Forest Campsite

The most perfect camping experience. Felt secluded and in the middle of a forest, without being completely disconnected. I had cell service the whole time and felt very safe, especially camping alone. Beth was an amazing host and was just a text away. If you’re feeling like camping on your own to escape real life for a little bit, this is where you want to go.

1 night at Cozy mountain log cabin

Peaaceful, trees and sunlight, 10 different bird species singing in the morning 🐦‍⬛🤓; easy to find location definitely off the beaten path up some dirt roads. Cabin was clean on bed was very comfortable. There are trails on the land that are meant for ATVs, which I didn’t use, but I walked on them with my dog and the solitude was great William was very accommodating and went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable. New private hot tub. I didn’t get a chance to get in it to tired from traveling. The area is gorgeous. If you have not been just riding through the countryside hills was serene.

Weekend Trip to Trothwood Forest

Really enjoyed tent camping here. The hiking trails around the property were well kept and easy to follow. Found a waterfall I had no idea was nearby. The campsite was easy to find and I enjoyed the walk to it, made it feel very isolated which is what I was hoping for. The host was super nice and offered to get me anything from the gas station in town if I forgot anything. Highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Private Forest Campsite

Absolutely love this site! This site was super private with hiking around the property, great views, and even a compostable toilet! Beth set up a geocache shortly before our stay and it’s amazing. Bring goodies to trade out on your exploration! Could not hear the sheep dog per previous reviews, but Beth did leave earplugs just in case. Loved the private stream and seclusion of the site from the rest of the world. 10/10, will be coming back!

Weekend Trip to Limestone Bluffs

They have a great set up here. There's a variety of different camp sites on a ridge, each with their own character, off of a gravel loop. The Zen Den was set back in a private clearing among a young trees on a platform, which was handy in rainy weather. The other sites looked appealing too, some in pine trees, others in more of a lawn/clearing. There's a little bit of traffic noise from the nearby highway, but I was there in early spring, and the Zen Den was quiet. I was there off season, so was the only person, but this is probably more lively in the summer. There's a cool viewing platform looking out over the valley. I'd definitely stay here again!

3 nights at Triple D Retreat

Frank was a great host. With all the rain we ended up stuck and he was gracious and came to our rescue. This, despite us ignoring his advice on where to park the camper due to the immense rain they've been having. This was our second time on his property and both have been excellent, quiet, secluded experiences. We'll be back again for sure.

1 night at Cozy mountain log cabin

Pretty cool mountain cabin. The place was easy to find and very clean when I arrived!

Weekend Trip to Limestone Bluffs

We didn’t want to leave! My friend and I typically enjoy a more primitive backpacking style of camping, but this trip was just more about time at the campsite with more creature comforts. We set out to make this the most comfortable camp out possible, and Wolves Retreat was exactly the vibe we were going for! The host has this set up so nicely with an extremely easy check-in/check-out. We never even saw or heard another person during our stay, so we’re not sure if anyone else was staying on property - but it felt very private! Would highly recommend this site for a small group.

Weekend Trip to Walnut Falls Escape

Craig’s Hipcamp was honestly perfect—super secluded, peaceful, and packed with adventure. It felt like having my own little slice of nature, totally off the grid. Whether I was just relaxing or out exploring, it was exactly what I needed. Plus, Craig is awesome—really kind and always happy to help. If you’re looking for a quiet getaway with endless outdoor vibes, this is the place.

Weekend Trip to The cozy mountain cabin

Clean facilities and a friendly host. Hot shower, full kitchen and great a porch! The band I'm in stayed the weekend and were able to play music all day and into the night. The host was accommodating and friendly.

5 Leaf Farm

5 sites · Lodging100 acres · Walton, WV

This area was known by the Native Americans as "Pocatalico" (land of the fat doe), and first settled by Europeans around 1890. The property itself was first settled by a man named Mayford Jones, who set the first stones here around 1910. A Jenny Lynn style farmhouse was built and the property was known as one of the best developed farms in the area. Today, the forest has returned to what was once pasture land on the majority of the 100 acre plot, and a small but intensive sustainable forest farm has been taking shape since 2013 under the current host and occupant, who prefers the term "steward" rather than "owner".
