Weekend Trip to Fruitdale Farm

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

Weekend Trip to The McIntosh Pines

Absolutely fantastic spot. Lots of trails to explore. Very secluded. Nice view of the creek from the camping spot but far enough away you don't need to worry about mud and bugs.

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!

4 nights at EJT Retreat

We had the best time at Esther’s camp! It had everything you needed and more. We loved the pond and hot tub. There was a problem with the hot tub before we arrived and Esther was quick to let us know and offered reimbursement. Much appreciated ☺️ The beds were comfortable. The air conditioner kept it nice and cool. It was so quiet and peaceful sitting around the fire at night listening to the sounds of nature. We will definitely be back if ever in Ohio again.

4 nights at EJT Retreat

The drive up to the cabin was a bit tricky. I was a little worried the first time up the hill in the car. But let me tell you, once we were up the hill, it was our little place of solitude for the week. The pond was my daughter’s favorite! So many frog and toad sounds at night. So fun. Fire pit and hot tub were also a huge bonus. The bed was very nice, we didn’t attempt to raise it at all; we just left it for our trip but it was the perfect little cabin for us. Esther was extremely attentive with anything I needed during our stay or any questions I had. Brent even surprised us with some fire wood one day. They were very thoughtful! We would absolutely stay again!

1 night at Geneva Hills

Fish tail is a very nice site. It’s close to the pool, kayaking, restrooms, it’s off by itself, and there’s a waterfall right behind it.

1 night at The Lake at the Flying J Farm

absolutely no confusion or issues what so ever, we went straight to our campsite, got set up, and were briefly greeted by the host later in the day. beautiful land, and plenty of space and locations to choose from within the farm. would definitely recommend this location whether your staying one night or multiple! When it was time for us too leave there was absolutely no rush or sense of urgency given by the host, i might come again tbh.

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

1 night at Geneva Hills

It’s all by itself. Has a water fall next to it. Beautiful site. Thank you

1 night at Woody Acres

We had are great stay at Woody Acres! It rained a bit so we were happy to have a dry place to hang out. The camper and outdoor kitchen were clean and we had everything we needed. The privy was clean and well maintained as well. It’s obvious that the hosts put so much love and care into their land. They were so kind and even helped us get our fire started. We would definitely stay there again. Thanks!

1 night at The Lake at the Flying J Farm

Very private with good views of the lake. The only downfall being the thick vegetation making it hard to fish the lake and use the boat provided. Watch for snakes!

Weekend Trip to The McIntosh Pines

I didn’t know what to expect as this was our first time using Hipcamp, but we were not disappointed! The site is super private, on a ledge overlooking the creek (which was very shallow and still during our stay). On wetter weeks the site may be a tricky to get to, but we didn’t have any issues in our normal 2WD SUV. We wanted a weekend with little to no human interaction and that’s what we got : ) Would definitely come back.

Weekend Trip to Away From The World Farm

This was my first time using the site and it was a good experience. The owners were very responsive and the site is beautiful. Definitely recommend.

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!

Weekend Trip to EJT Retreat

We took a mother/daughter trip for our stay. We had the most amazing time! The pond for swimming is perfect with the deck to hang out and cool off during the hot day. At night we got in the hot tub and had a nice fire for s'more. The cabin was cozy and perfect for the 4 of us. They provided so many extra items like camping chairs, towels fire starters, bug spray, sunblock, and many more things. The drive way was a little crazy getting up in my mini van but with a running start it was fine. We was laughing so much about the adventure of getting up it. I would definitely want to drive my truck with 4 wheel drive in the winter to get to it. We are planning our next trip already to go back. We will also be taking our kids there for a weekend adventure. Thank you all so much for a great place to stay and make memories!

We really enjoyed our getaway at Woody Acres. The bus was well equipped and very comfortable. It was a hot weekend so we brought an ez up tent for shade and it worked out great. Beautiful property and will definitely go back to visit. They had the nicest Privy which my daughter was very happy about. Thank you Kate and Austin for sharing your little slice of peacefulness with us.

Loved the cabin. Had a good time exploring to trails. I picked a bad week due to the heat and the ac just couldn't keep up. It was over 95 outside each day.

1 night at Altenbrauch Farm

The land was immaculately kept. It was easy to get in, even in the dark. The creek was nice and cool to stick our toes in on a hot day. We managed to stay in the shade most of the day.

1 night at Little Darby Outdoors

Great shower and rr facilities. Shade near building and from trees away from the main building.

9 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents250 acres · Johnstown, OH

The Flying J Farm is 250 beautiful rolling acres including 100 acres of forest, 6-acre lake small pond, three streams, and numerous fields for crops and pastures with cows. The owner bought the farm in 1998 for his retirement from a faculty position at the Ohio State university. Two buildings, the farm house and old barn, are original dating back to 1831. These have been restored for current use. The mission of the farm is to restore health both in people though the products produced and in the land by farming in a sustainable way with no conventional chemicals, antibiotics, and use of GMO. We host many visitors including tours and events. An on farm market is available to visitors for purchase of our products including grass-fed beef, maple syrup, and fruits and vegetables. The cabin was built using wood from the farm. It has off-grid electricity meaning it is powered by batteries charged by solar panels. There is not sufficient power for devices with a heating element such as coffee makers and hair dryers. You may charge cell phones. For any other use, please check with the owner. Wild Life. There is an abundance of wildlife to be observed on the farm. Deer can be seen at dusk, raccoons can be seen going through your camp food at night (if you put it in your car), turkeys, hawks, vultures, rabbits, coyotes (heard screaming at night), frogs (especially heard at night), fish (jumping), and many song birds (my favorite, the bobolink, May and June only, nesting in the pastures).

Grins & Pickin's CampFarm

47 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents20 acres · Marengo, OH

Grins & Pickin's CampFarm was created to share the outdoors with others. Growing food & flowers, camping & hiking is what we like to do. And we like sharing these activities. Our family oriented outdoor recreation facility offers primitive camping, PYO produce during the growing season, homesteading activities & nature-based programs. The peaceful 20-acre country farm has food gardens, a frog habitat pool, a barnyard for the chickens & ducks, a bluegill fishin' pond, a pollinator maze, a prairie garden, and an outdoor stage. After crossing a winding creek into 10 acres of woods, you may see deer, turkey, fox, coyote, mink, eagles & barred owls. In early spring, the peepers are peeping, wildflowers are abundant & the vernal pools welcome the wood frogs, salamanders and fairy shrimp. Summer brings on the bullfrogs, butterflies, dragonflies and fireflies. Fall is a great time to pull grapevine to make wreaths & to build stick forts in the woods. We cater to the tent camper so that we can hear frogs & owls instead of generators. But, there is an RV section up front for those with quiet generators with several feet of gravel under the grass to hold the weight of your camper. We charge by the carload & there are different rates for driving back toward the woods for camping depending on the number of wheels & the weight of your vehicle (a factor on the wear & tear on the land). We believe in going outside to play, growing & eating fresh food, strengthening family bonds and promoting the awareness of our natural resources. PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING: 1) The speed limit is 5 mph as soon as you enter the property (kids & dogs are quick to dart in front of you). 2) As a state registered campground, it is mandatory that you check in at the house to fill out a Registration Form before heading to your campsite. 3) No glass allowed anywhere on the property (we don't want our feet or paws cut open and can do without flat tires). 4) Children under 18 must be attended to at all times for their safety (the frog pool is 10' deep, the pond is 8-10' deep depending on rains, and the creek can turn into a churning river). Thank you!

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.

Fern Hollow Farm

3 sites · RVs, Tents10 acres · Somerset, OH

Erik and Olivia were introduced to the little piece of family land that would become Fern Hollow Farm in June of 2014. What was an Alfalfa (medicago sativa) field lain fallow for seven years, would soon have bigger ambitions. After walking the meadow and feeling the magic of place, Olivia and Erik began the work of designing. Shortly thereafter, they set off across the US, staying at various permaculture oriented farms; with herbalists, seed savers and more, looking for inspiration and learning everything they could along the way. One seed saver, the awe-inspiring Sylvia Davatz of Solstice Seeds in Vermont, gifted them the two wild Kazak apple trees that are on either side of the entrance, and are featured in the logo as well.Begun officially in 2015, Fern Hollow Farm is an ever-evolving, community-based entity inspired by three simple ethics: Earth Care * People Care * Fair Share

Coppertop Campground

5 sites · Tents15 acres · Bainbridge, OH

***Closed for the Season*** Come visit southern Ohio and camp out under that stars. Pitch your tent on one of five camping platforms and enjoy the wooded surroundings. There are 15 acres of woods, trails and maintained areas, including a shared pavilion and outdoor shower. General Information The accommodations are primitive, but adequate and spaced apart to provide individual privacy. Each platform is 9'x11' and will allow for most 2 to 4 person, self supporting tents to be pitched with adequate space. Larger tents or tents that need to be staked out will probably not fit or work on the platforms. The land supports insets of all sorts; fireflies, dragonflies and butterflies. It also has horseflies and ticks. The land also supports some endangered and threatened species of plants - so if you see something you haven't seen before, take a picture and leave the plant in the soil. If it rains hard, it will get muddy. Be prepared for that with extra changes of clothes. There is an outdoor rinse shower (in the final phases of construction) to wash off if you get TOO muddy. There is a shared space pavilion that can be used for discussions and getting out of the rain. It is not to be used for a cooking kitchen or to have chimineas under. Be respectful of others who may be using this space. All locations are WALK IN. You will need to carry your tent and provisions to the location. There are no roads that go directly to the camping platforms. Do not try to drive on the land. Trust our experience with it... you will get stuck. Pulling you out will be costly and will damage the land (and most likely your vehicle as well). Camping Locations Platform 1 and Platform 2 are close together and work well for a slightly larger group. Platform 3 is closest to the top of the campground and Platform 4 is furthest inside the campground. Platform 5 is closest to a small pond that is currently under restoration. It is also situated for the best firefly viewing in June and early July. Hammocks are permitted to be hung from trees, provided they have non-scarring strapping systems. Hammocks cannot be hung from pavilion or from camping platforms. Surrounding Areas The land is located in rural Ross County. It is mostly quiet. I have neighbors, they have animals, so you are likely to hear dogs barking, roosters crowing, donkeys braying and the occasional gunshot. These usually happen in the morning and in the evening. These are normal for this area. Bainbridge is right down the hill and has multiple gas stations, a hardware store and a small grocery store for most of your needs. Bainbridge is the home of the "Soldiers of the Downhill" International Downhill Skateboarding event and the "Fall Festival of Leaves". It also has the first Dental School in the United States and the Paxton Theater. Ideally located for several state parks, including: Pike Lake Rocky Fork Paint Creek Located within close proximity to several points of interest: 10 minutes to the Seip Earthworks 15 minutes of the Arc of Appalachia / Highland Nature Sanctuary 20 minutes to Fort Hill Earthworks and Nature Preserve 25 minutes to Hopewell Culture National Heritage Location 40 minutes to Serpent Mound State Memorial Working on finalizing an outdoor shower, but may not be up and running for the 2024 camping season.
