Kickapoo Kamping

This location in Ohio is about a 10-minute walk to Dillon Dam, Reservoir and Lake! The road that was there was called Yelp Town Hollow Road. The road that this camp was on had to be raised when they put the dam in, they even had to move the one room school house! Black Hand Gorge preserve isn't far from the camp, lots of hiking and bicycle trails. Dillon State Park is 10-15 miles away with trails for horses, walking and biking. About 3,000 acres of State and Federal Land is right in our backyard!  Learn more about this land:Set your tent up in a wooded area or near a stream. Great star gazing and forest bathing. The area is in the Yelptown Hollow Valley, the road and one room school house Yelptown School are reminiscent of a bygone era. The old road bed is near camping and old school house has relocated to a site nearby. Come enjoy the laid back ambience of the area! Peaceful, solitude, nearby stream.

We had a great time with the Kali and her kids. 

Two Blocks Away Farm

We are a working farm located in central Ohio. The main house and barn were built in the 1890s. We moved to this lovely homestead two years ago and began our journey to sustainability. Our animals are all pastured, heritage-bred animals, from the pigs to our chickens! We love exploring our wooded 3.5 acres and discovering more and more with each trip just outside our back door!Learn more about this land:Pitch a tent along the wooded trails while nature surrounds you. Located on 6.5 acres of woods, meadows and pastures, the place allows you to do bird watching, exploring nature or simply observing the goings on at the farm. We are a working family farm raising chickens, pigs and goats all on pasture! Children giggle while playing with the dogs or jumping on the trampoline. Don't hesitate to explore the growing food forest, gardens or pastures.

The campsite Kali's kids picked out for us was perfect, tucked back into the woods right by a stream. Loved it.

Right when I brought my camera up to my face they got up and came towards the fence. I think they like the camera :)

My morning view. Can't get much better than that!

Kali's kids were so nice to show us all around the farm

Kensley warmed up a little to the pigs. They were really nice. They also snore, which I found hilarious.

Grins & Pickin's CampFarm

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 with others. Our family oriented outdoor recreation facility is open on weekends only and 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 fireflys. 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!

Campsites 29-30 are mostly shaded by the pines. Deer & turkey travel thru here. Located at the back corner near the woods & 34 acres of hiking trails.

The pond is quite large and had a canoe, two kayaks and a paddleboard for us to use

The Lake at the Flying J Farm

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, horses and chickens. 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.

kayaks, a canoe, paddle board and even a floating tent available to guests. 

Ruby was thinking about taking a canoe ride. 

Our cozy site was nestled right beside the lake. 

The campground is marked by this welcoming sign. 

Burke's Bend

Burke's Bend sits on a dead end road in Perry County, Ohio--where you can find a abundance of wildlife, a spring-fed Cory, rippling stream with a bathtub and trees all around.  Plenty of hiking, hunting, motocross or ATV  depending on season and bookings. There  is a log captain that is occupied by special guest and the owner. It is our dream to make a Bed & Breakfast someday. The area has a rich history and was previously occupied by a church. The Bethany Cemetery  is still visited by history buffs. It dates back to the 1800's and is nicely maintained . It adds to the adventure in the fall. I believe the land  was mined for coal at some point due to access when purchased. My mother's family were a part of the heritage  in this area. One of the reason's for the purchase. We built our retirement home here in the hopes of passing it along to our family. But now we would like to share the beauty of it with others. Hope you enjoy!Learn more about this land:Burke's Bend sits on a dead end road in Perry County, Ohio--where you can find a abundance of wildlife, a spring-fed Cory, rippling stream with a bathtub and trees all around.

I had fun practicing knife throwing while I was here!
