Fruitdale Farm

9 sites · Lodging, Tents20 acres · Bainbridge, OH

Come stay at our little sustainable farmstead amid the beautiful rolling hills of southern Ohio! Our peaceful 20 acres has a good mix of woods, wild meadows and maintained cleared areas as well as a small pond, all of which can be explored via our nature trail. Enjoy the sounds of nature and an incredible night sky. Farm fresh eggs and fresh produce are available for purchase during the growing season and firewood is available all year round. There is also a wonderful sauna on the property that can be reserved. Great hiking, kayaking, biking, birding, fishing, swimming, and disc-golfing opportunities just a few miles away at Paint Creek State Park and the Highland Nature Sanctuary. Amish country is also just 15 minutes away with a great bakery, markets and greenhouses. This area is home to an impressive network of ancient earthworks including the world famous Serpent Mound. Our accommodations range from primitive tent-camping to "glamping" in one of our tiny off-grid cabins. The sites are spaced out for privacy and each site offers a private picnic table and fire pit. There are two shared privies/outhouses which have basic composting toilets. A grassy parking area is provided near the road, however, ALL SITES ARE WALK-IN ONLY. Greenfield (5 miles north) is the nearest town and has two grocery stores, restaurants, a bar, hardware, gas, etc. Bainbridge (7 miles south) has gas, hardware, a couple of restaurants, dollar store, amish businesses, etc.

Riverside Drive Retreat.

1 site · Tent11 acres · Powell, OH

This is a beautiful 11 acre completely wooded lot with amazing topography and geologic diversity. It has been sought after by housing developers for years, but remains untouched due to legal battles related to driveway access. It currently provides an authentic secluded retreat in Powell, Ohio; a northwest suburb of Columbus, Oh. We are hoping to keep this land in it’s natural state (all of the site prep has been done by hand (and chain saw))- so come on out, enjoy a primitive retreat and contribute to furthering this land’s interesting story. 😀Learn more about this land:This is a neat “primitive” campsite that is tucked into a natural wooded lot on 11 acres. It is located in Powell, Ohio- a northwest suburb of Columbus, Ohio. It would be ideal for campers seeking a close get away from Columbus or the suburbs, who would like to disconnect a bit and immerse themselves in nature. We've also had some people traveling through Columbus enjoy a quick stay here. This is the only site on the 11 acres, so you won't have any other campers to contend with. The site is quite secluded from about June through early October. In the fall, it should be noted that the trees will lose their leaves. The result is that you can hear some traffic on occasion. Also, you may notice the neighbor's houses when you first arrive. Most people are able to get past this quite easily- as once you settle in you tend to forget about those things and enjoy the surrounding 11 acres of nature. The site is mostly Ohio woodlands. Part of it is elevated and part of it is in floodplain adjacent to the Scioto River- providing some interesting topography. There is a small waterfall and two small creeks; which are most often active in the spring and fall. The O'Shaughnessy Reservoir/Scioto River is in walking distance. There you can boat, canoe, kayak and fish, but just plain swimming is not allowed. Note that the reservoir also has a formal boat “dock” just 2 miles down the road. For those who may wish to “base camp”- there are numerous amenities offered in Powell and nearby Dublin and Delaware and there are several interesting parks and hiking trails which would be just a short drive away. We understand the pricing on this site may be a bit higher than most- but this is primarily related to the fact that we offer free fire wood; so you do not have to worry about bringing your own or paying for bundles as you go.

Ray’s Holler

4 sites · RVs, Tents22 acres · Somerset, OH

Magic Waters

50 sites · RVs, Tents200 acres · Bainbridge, OH

Nestled beside the stunning Highland Nature Sanctuary, Magic Waters is a true gem waiting to be discovered. With 3100 acres of winding trails, mysterious caves, and breathtaking caverns, there's a ton of outdoor fun to be had around Cave Hollar. And if you're looking for a place to pitch your tent and enjoy the great outdoors, we've got you covered with several fantastic camping spots available. And Open Camping where you can take a Hike on the 200 acres and find ya a spot away from people. Or take your endures or side by sides and take a adventure on 20 miles of Trails that lead to the top of the Foot Hills of the Appalachian Foot Hills to see breath Taking views. This is Not a Groomed Camp Ground I Like it to be More Natural But that's not all - we're also excited to announce that we're in the process of revamping the stage at Magic Waters Theater to create an amazing new music venue for the area. Whether you're a music lover, an outdoor enthusiast, or simply seeking a relaxing getaway, Magic Waters has something for everyone.
