Stories from the community

Weekend Trip to Quiet Creek Valley

Very nice sites tucked directly along a stream. Some fishing spots and a lot of wildlife to watch as you relax. Very nice hosts....direct farm trail back to the camping sites. Level spots for tent/cooking, ground is sandy so be aware in terms of having tarp for shoes/towel to clean off pets.

7 nights at Sugar Maple Grove Campground

Site 4 is a great spot. Often colorful sunrises mixed with clouds. Very peaceful.

1 night at Quiet Creek Valley

This was a very beautiful property! Very helpful and nice people. 100 percent would recommend.

Weekend Trip to Quiet Creek Valley

Super cool place. The guy we met there was super helpful and personable. Me and my girlfriend had a wonderful time.

Weekend Trip to Quiet Creek Valley

Relaxing. Enjoyed ourselves. A little muddy, but to be expected. Loved watching the ducks floating in the creek.

7 nights at Sugar Maple Grove Campground

Peaceful mornings and evenings. Except for the occasional train.

Weekend Trip to Country Outpost RV Site

This RV site was exactly what we were looking for. Super easy to find and located in a peaceful, quiet spot. The fire pit was great and we loved hanging out by the pond and listening to the birds (and farmers in the background). Allen was nice - checked in on us to make sure everything was good, but also gave us our space to enjoy his place. The listing is truthful with its "picnic table present . . . use with caution". We were glad to have a tablecloth and seat covers for the picnic table but it was sturdier than expected. We had a great time and will be back to the Outpost again, I'm sure.

Weekend Trip to Quiet Creek Valley

Wonderful scenery, great host! Would love to visit again. In the future, I wouldn't stay with Creek site 1. It's wonderful, but we have a little one and there's a bit of a steep drop off into the creek.

Weekend Trip to Green Plains Ranch

Very peaceful and beautiful pond! We really enjoyed the fact you are the only ones around. We will definitely be back!

6 nights at Sugar Maple Grove Campground

Very peaceful place, aside from the occasional train.

Weekend Trip to Cabin and Tent Camping On The River

The Morgan’s property is a little slice of heaven! We went on a very rainy weekend yet it was still so beautiful and relaxing that we hated to leave. The cabin is well stocked with everything you could hope for - from a camping chair, games, lights, cooking pan to a jug of water for hand washing. The outhouse was by far the cleanest we have ever used which was a much appreciated bonus. We can’t wait to come back and enjoy it when the sun is shining! *we highly recommend going to Hawks Run Market - especially if you’re gluten free like me!*

2 nights at Quiet Creek Valley

Beautiful farm and stream! I was awoken by so many glorious bird sounds! I enjoyed meeting Dave and he accommodated my late arrival. Martha was quick to respond to any questions. It was pouring out and I stayed dry in my tent. I will say that the ground is a big sandy, so keep that in mind for your gear. Great primitive site!

Weekend Trip to Quiet Creek Valley

Love this place. Its my go to place for Creek Side Camping.

Weekend Trip to Cabin and Tent Camping On The River

Awesome place to relax in nature, we will definitely be back when it’s warmer! Hunter was communicative and helped us with extra amenities!!

Weekend Trip to Secluded Mt. Airy Camp

It was the perfect little getaway! We’ll definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Country Outpost RV Site

My wife and I stayed at the outpost this weekend. It was an easy drive up state routes and county roads. We arrived at the location and immediately knew how to park. We used the two lane, untraveled road in front of the outpost to easily back our 25 foot RV into place. There was room to spare with the RV and my 19 ft F150 still hooked up. You could get a 45footer on the gravel lot. It was very quiet. We enjoyed our stayed and even did a little fishing. We caught 2 MASSIVE bluegills and a few small bass right from our chairs. There is a 30 amp service, but no water or sewer ( we dumped at Camper's Inn in TippCity/Troy, Ohio). We would definitely visit again. We met the owner - He was very cordial and you can tell he loves his property! A++

Weekend Trip to Quiet Creek Valley

Great little spot. The owners were very kind and respectful.

Weekend Trip to Quiet Creek Valley

The site we stayed at was by the river. It was beautiful. We woke up to tons of birds flying amongst the trees: cardinals, king fishers, golden finches. It was lovely.

Weekend Trip to Green Plains Ranch

It was a great stay and we look forward to our next visit

Weekend Trip to The Shack

Ive stayed at this spot a number of times - excellent location, great campsite and the cabin with the cot are a really nice addition - highly recommended!

Cabin and Tent Camping On The River

2 sites · Tents14 acres · Morrow, OH

Pack your essentials and escape to the Little Miami River Valley's best kept secret. Our off-grid cabin and tent campsite is situated on 14 acres along the National and Scenic Little Miami River. The cabin is included in the site rental, offering the flexibility to bring your own mattress/bedding or have it provided as an add-on. Once here, you'll park near the farmhouse and take a 4 minute hike over the creek, through the meadow, and into the woods. *Driving to the site is an option if you have 4WD and the ground is not too wet. Exceptions for 2WD can be made if the weather forecast and ground conditions permit. As you approach the cabin and campsite, the trail opens up to an acre of green space shaded by large Sycamore, Walnut, and other native trees.

The Little Miami Trail is also less than a mile down the road so bring your bike! The composting outhouse is serviced between each stay, meaning it's emptied, sanitized, and like new for each new guest. *Depending on your group size, the host may need to service/empty the outhouse once daily. There are two established campfire locations and a picnic table is provided. *This is a family residence. The hosts live onsite and although you will not see them from your site, you will likely hear kids/adults playing outside and possibly weekend tasks such as mowing/weed eating/etc. Other "noise pollution" may come from canoeists passing by or the gun/ATV riding club which is a 1/4 mile down the river. That said, overall it remains rather quiet and you should find your stay peaceful : ) Add-ons include: - Mattress/mattress protector/fitted sheet ($30) - Mattress with full bedding (+flat sheet/comforter/pillows) ($50) - Small table top propane grill ($15) - Tent rental/setup ($30) - Firewood ($10/bundle) (roughly 10 pieces/bundle) - Life jacket ($5/each) - River tube and 1 life jacket ($10) - Hybrid stand-up paddle board/kayak and 1 life jacket ($20) - Canoe with paddles and 2 life jackets ($20) - Mountain bike ($20)

Sweet Spot by Yellow Springs

1 site · RV, Tent1 acre · Yellow Springs, OH

The campsite is in an open meadow on our 5 acre property, next to the ruins of what was one of the oldest barns in the county (there are still some beautiful stone walls left). You will be surrounded by trees and the spot is completely private. Directly across the road from our property (a 5 minute walk) is the Little Miami Scenic Trail, the third longest paved trail in the US (amazing for biking). The unique village of Yellow Springs is only a 5 minute drive away with a great local grocery store and several cafes. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE BOOKING. Notes: 1) For camper vans: we do allow camper vans (not RVs or trailers) but you will need to park at the entrance of the meadow where there is gravel. Recently a camper got stuck in the meadow due to rain/mud (which is why we do not allow RVs or trailers). 2) We are still building a compost toilet so the option on the property now is to dig a cat hole at least 6" deep. There is an open public toilet in Yellow Springs and several businesses with open bathrooms. 3) The campsite is right off of Route 68. You cannot see cars from the site but you can hear them. The amount of noise from cars is lower at night. 4) The meadow is ideal for tent camping, though it is NOT a built campsite so it is not perfectly level throughout.
