I have two properties which offer two different kinds of camping, which I have tried to itemize separately in the Hipcamp listings. The pictures were hard to sort out.RV's and Campers will park on the upper level at the Panama Street address which has water and electricity. You cannot actually see the Ohio River from the parking lot, but it is a short walk. Any pictures of water were taken from the tent camping site. If you are in a large vehicle, but are looking to spend a lot of time by the river,, you can hope that the site is available for use, which usually it is, (somehow I rarely book both places at once), or you can book both sites. Tent campers set up their tents right beside the river. There is a very simple house with a bathroom, cold running water, electricity, and also provides shelter in bad weather. It's an unusual set up, as perhaps Hipcamper spots often are. On one hand I feel like I am in the middle of nowhere when I am on these (small, very not fancy) properties by the river. On the other, there are planes, trains, barges and pleasure boats, and motorcycles passing by at times. California is just a few minutes off I-275 from the Kellogg exit, and a 15 minute drive from Cincinnati. It is the eastern-most neighborhood with a quaint village feel. Safe, flat, scenic and walkable, California offers several dining experiences, one a brewery, and quite a variety of recreational experiences. Riverbed Music Center, in season, is a mile away, walking distance, as is Belterra, the race track/casino. The bike trail is a few blocks away and connects to all the other area bike trails including the Loveland Bike Trail along the "Wild and Scenic" Little Miami River. A local nature preserve, California Woods, offers hiking and nature programs, and there is even the California Golf Course. A park with large, grassy open spaces and small playground is a few blocks away. Bring your game of horse shoes, corn hole, a frisbee to throw, your skateboard, golf cart, or some bikes just to cruise around and take in the scenery. The Little Miami River flows past Armleder Park a few miles away, which has a gravel river beach, a dog park, walking and biking trails and connects to the 5 mile loop around Lunken Airport. There is a lot to do in Cincinnati.

Enjoy camping back a quiet lane beside towering Norway and White Pines. This is a great spot for an overnight stay or a week-long visit to explore the area. Your site is located on 5 acres of wooded, rolling country side where nature abounds. Although there is a private residence nearby, you are our guests and your privacy will be respected. We are just a 10 minute walk from Cedarville University's Campus and a 20 minute walk to the Village. We are situated near Clifton, Yellow Springs and Jamestown; the Ohio to Erie Bike Trail is less than a mile away. Down the road are the Clifton Mill and Clifton Gorge (4.5 mi.). The Museum of the Air Force (Wright-Patterson AFB), along with several Wright Brother's Historical Sites, are just a 30 minute drive away. OTHER THINGS TO NOTE: Site availability - April thru October Maximum RV length is limited to 24 ft. (pictured is a 22' travel trailer with a 3' rear rack). 30 amp electric service is provided, as well as potable water to fill your tank at the site. This is a back-in, level site of crushed stone, dimensions 12 ft. wide by 24 ft. deep, with ample space for your tow vehicle. Enjoy the nearby fire pit with wood provided. If towing, you will want to enter our lane from the direction of the Village to make the turn easier. There is a dump site conveniently located just 3.5 miles away at John Bryan State Park ($10).

3. Hilltop Family Farm

26mi from Lake Lorelei · 3 sites · Tents, RVs · OH

Hello campers! We are former full-time RVers who recently moved to a 110-acre farm in Southern Ohio. We're not yet functional with farm operations; however, our farm has a nicely rolling landscape, with great long-range views to the south across the Ohio River. The topography is great for ATV rides, and sunrise/sunset views are fantastic! Locally, we're a few miles from Georgetown, home of the Brown County Fair, AKA the 'Little State Fair', the last week of September, as well as numerous festivals throughout the year. Georgetown is also the childhood home of Ulysses S. Grant (as indicated by the handful of murals throughout town!), and his childhood home and schoolhouse are popular stops.

Weekend Trip to RV In The Pines

This was the perfect location for our weekend of activities. It was the perfect combination of wooded property and we'll maintained lawn for the kids to play. The hosts were friendly and available for anything if we needed anything.

The RV site was quiet and level with plenty of room. It was close to Riverbend Music Venter where we enjoyed a concert. Polly was responsive and lovely to chat with. I would stay here again.

4 nights at Ohio River Town Experience

Polly’s place is soooo convenient for staying in Cincinnati. Very charming neighborhood and right on the river. The spot I had felt a little in the way for day to day animal care (mini horses, a pony, and a donkey!! <3 ) but nothing that would deter me from coming back!

Loved my stay! Polly was very helpful and the stay was quaint. My cats loved watching the birds by the mulberry tree and being by the river and the animals was a great experience. I highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Ohio River Town Experience

Polly’s land right on the bank of the Ohio River had recently flooded. It was still beautiful and peaceful. We appreciated that Polly made a special trip to help us with a lock and key issue , on a rainy Friday night! The carport shelter was great in the rain, camping in our van.
