Stories from the community

Weekend Trip to The Viking Longhall

This place is always amazing and we’ll continue to come back every year.

Weekend Trip to The Viking Longhall

Another excellent weekend experience with old and new friends at The Viking Longhall! David Summers is a consummate host! This our third time enjoying the amazing glamping site and it never disappoints! It is seen a new every time with new discoveries and experiences. We absolute adore this nature retreat and all it offers. Thankful for David & his partner's creative vision and efforts!

Weekend Trip to Cabin and Tent Camping On The River

I absolutely recommend Hunter’s place. Everything about our many stays have been top notch.

Weekend Trip to Fruitdale Farm

I loved staying at the Cedar Sanctuary site! This place is absolutely magical, I will be back!

2 nights at The Viking Longhall

We tent camped on this beautiful creekside, viking-themed respite and were quite comfortable even within rain and heat. There are plenty of trees for shade and dipping our feet in the creek to cool off was a delight. David, our host, was warm, welcoming, gracious and friendly. We stayed there while visiting Serpent Mound which is very close-by. We cannot wait to return. We truly felt so refreshed. There's something magical about hearing that creek at night.

3 nights at Fruitdale Farm

What a beautiful farm to camp at! My 8 year old daughter and I had such a lovely time in the A Frame exploring the wildlife trails, hanging out with the koi fish, the chickens and Aimee! Everything is so well thought out and obviously a lot of care has gone into this property, it’s absolutely magical, we can’t wait to return!

Weekend Trip to The Viking Longhall

Amazing spot! David was super nice and hosts a very fun complex. A real treat and one of my favorite stays yet. He also recommended Quiver Heart Trail nearby which was a beautiful hike.

Weekend Trip to The Viking Longhall

Highly recommend if you’re looking for a magical place to reconnect with nature but still sleep in a bed. The creekside cabin was very clean and cozy! David and Ivea were incredibly kind and accommodating. The place is clean, artistically beautiful, and honestly just felt magical.

2 nights at Home Afarm

Very large and comfortable spot for camping. We enjoyed the private surroundings, the chickens, and the nearby pond the most. Hosts were very responsive to our requests. Highly recommend. It was the perfect base for us to explore the Serpent Mound and Chalet Nivale Preserve.

Weekend Trip to The Viking Longhall

Fantastic asthetics. Beautifully done and maintained. Hosts were very hospitable and knowledgable of the area. The yurt was very comfy and inviting. First time in a yurt and it was a blast. Hosts went above and beyond by providing a battery unit for my CPAP machine.

Weekend Trip to Todd’s Fork Adventures

Amazing Spot – Site 2 at Todd Forks is a Hidden Gem! We had such a great experience—Site 2 is hands down the best spot at Todd Forks! It offers a secluded, peaceful setting that’s perfect for getting away without being too far from convenience. The site itself is: • Nicely flattened for easy tent setup • Clean and well-maintained • Equipped with a great fire pit • Close to the river and porta potties, making everything super accessible What makes Site 2 truly special is the soothing sound of the river flowing over rocks—it adds a peaceful, serene backdrop to your stay. Even though you’re not far from stores or supplies, it feels completely tucked away in nature. Fred, the host, was friendly, helpful, and very accommodating. His warm welcome and attentiveness made the whole experience even better. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a relaxing camping escape. I’ll definitely be back!

2 nights at Cabin and Tent Camping On The River

Beautiful property right on the river. Hunter was very helpful and nice. Would recommend.

2 nights at Todd’s Fork Adventures

Such a great campsite! We were right on the water, the tent area was perfectly shaded, plenty of room for a hammock, and it was the perfect secluded area. Would definitely recommend!

7 nights at Ohio Red Barn

We love staying here! This is our 5th or 6th trip in 4 seasons. Plenty of room, lots of peace and quiet! Great host that has great local honey.

3 nights at Fruitdale Farm

Me and my boyfriend had a blast at fruitdale farm...the peace and quiet and listening to the wildlife was amazing...not to mention watching the stars and just relaxing. Thank you Amiee for the stay

2 nights at The Viking Longhall

Second stay and would still 100% recommend David’s place! So grateful for the nature, birds, stars, love, fun and beauty! There’s nothing better than hearing a babbling brook, bird songs and a crackling fire all at once :) perfect hosts all around!

4 nights at Myhio Haven Horse Farm

It is a primitive campsite, so don't expect state park amenities, but you can expect privacy. You are only a few miles from Shawnee State Park if you want to take advantage of their activities. Tree coverage was mother nature's umbrella during heavy rains and the fishing and swimming were great. Getting to the campsite was a brief adventure, so you absolutely need 4 wheel drive. I wouldn't hesitate to book again.

Weekend Trip to Whimsical Treehouses and Trails!!

Perfect place for kids (5 and 4). They loved the treehouse. I appreciated all the whimsical things on the property: we hiked the hobbit trail, played in camp creek for hours, crossed it on the rope bridge, swung on all sorts of swings, brushed wind chimes, and knocked out most of the scavenger hunt.

Weekend Trip to Tranquility Spring Campground

Very beautiful and peaceful spot. Everything was very well maintained and really nice. Couldn’t ask for a better spot.

Weekend Trip to Fruitdale Farm

We had an excellent time! Even though it rained a lot, the property is gorgeous and our site (site 2) is situated in a great spot with lots of privacy. Highly recommend!

The Viking Longhall

10 sites · Lodging, Tents5 acres · Peebles, OH

The Viking longhall has been 9 years in the making by a group of semi serious Viking enthusiasts: the result is a 60 foot long building that has 18, 8,x4' sleeping berths. Set apart from the main open area it also boasts 2 meeting rooms and a kitchen. The campsite is a very peaceful place. Some go as far as to say a healing place! We are proud of what we have achieved and now want people to come out and enjoy it also. The field is close enough to the Appalachian highway (state route 32) for convenience, but far enough not to be bothered by it. The area is steeped in Native American culture. In fact, the world famous Serpent Mound is but 8 miles away, with many other Adena culture sites within easy driving distance. It's also in the heart of the Amish community. The area is known for its natural beauty with many hiking trails and canoeing opportunities. The area is awash in beauty and history from the ancient mound culture to the amish culture. The area has many hiking trails some of which are part of the buckeye trail and range in length from an easy 1 mile loop to rugged hikes of many miles. Come out and share the land that we have loved for the last 30 years PLEASE NOTE….WE WILL NO LONGER BE SUPPLYING BEDDING OR TOWELS.

Myhio Haven Horse Farm

Established in 1983 on a 60-acre plot of land right in the Shawnee State Forest. The property is beautiful with flat land, fields, and at the back are the foot hills of the Appalachian Mountains. We put a horse farm on the land in 2000. The horses here are my family and I want to expand and offer more opportunities on the land. That's when I came across Hipcamp! I'm excited to share a piece of my heaven that I'm fortunate enough to call home.

This idyllic retreat offers a perfect blend of rustic charm and natural beauty, making it an ideal escape for those craving tranquility away from the bustle of everyday life.

Fiskburg Holler also serves as an excellent base camp for hunters exploring the region, though hunting is not permitted on the property itself.
