Lake Farm

4 sites · RVs, Tents44 acres · Bethel, OH

The Lake Farm is 44 acres bordered by farmed land and woods. This farm has been in our family for over 50 years. Although there is no residence on the property, this farm is filled with family memories. For generations, family and friends have gathered at the farm to camp; share meals; fish or float on the lakes; play with our dogs; and enjoy the seasons in a secluded outdoor setting. We have hosted family gatherings for all occasions and seasons including an incredible Winter Camp a few years back with historical tents and recipes. As our children have grown older, the farm now provides a secluded space for solitude; fishing or floating in the lakes; cooking together; sitting around a table and visiting; reading a book; or taking a nap. The two lakes on the farm host much wildlife - morning time is often filled with deer stopping by for a drink or a run across the fields and geese families teaching their children - the regiment of landing on lakes or making abrupt turns while floating on lakes. Sometimes if you watch closely - a beaver can be spotted as he/she is slowly moving a tree branch across the lake or a turtle sunning on a tree stump. The East Fork Horse and Hiking Trail borders our farm and makes the perfect morning walk. This farm has been our refuge and blessing for many years. We have developed 4 camping sites and an additional site - in case our own family needs what we call farm therapy spot whether it be overnight or simply for an afternoon. The Lake Farm neighbors East Fork Lake State Park and allows quick access for kayaks and canoes as well a horse and hiking trail. Additionally, Lake Farm is 30 minutes drive from the Ohio River - where you can access the river at different points. Please feel free to ask for recommendations on good food and local interest.
