Weekend Trip to Rusty's Retreat with pond and river

The host is so hospitable! They don’t come any nicer! There are trails to hike, animals to pet, and a creek to enjoy.

Weekend Trip to Rusty's Retreat with pond and river

Some friends and I took tent sites 1, 2, and 3 along the river with our sons, and it was great! We had a fantastic time, fishing and exploring the river. The hosts were attentive and accommodating. We would definitely go back.

Weekend Trip to Rusty's Retreat with pond and river

The property was beautiful and secluded. Our boys had so much fun!

3 nights at Riverside Camping

I loved camping here! Site 4 is secluded. We camped for three nights and felt like family, everyone is so kind and welcoming. The goats are probably my favorite out of the animals 🥰 I’d absolutely recommend this camp and will be back. Perfect location close to everything yet not near anything. Just what I needed!!

2 nights at Rusty's Retreat with pond and river

We stayed on site 3 with our one year old and our dog for our first camping adventure since our baby was born. It was exactly what we needed—beautiful, peaceful, and also very convenient. Jay and Heather’s hospitality for a campsite was better than most Airbnbs I’ve stayed! If you’re daunted by lugging your camping gear into a spot marked “secluded”—don’t be. They helped us move everything we needed in a golf cart (and we brought a lot because of our baby). I loved birdwatching and listening. My husband loved fishing and walking in the river. Our baby loved to the ponies and Rusty. Our dog loved meeting another dog friend! We cannot wait to come back! Even if site 3 isn’t right for your family or setup, I guarantee you one of the other spots will be!

Weekend Trip to Rusty's Retreat with pond and river

Fantastic hosts and location! So peaceful and relaxing! Great trails and waterfront property.

1 night at Riverside Camping

The property is really beautiful! The hosts were absolutely amazing and so friendly. Bryan was very accommodating! We tent camped and really enjoyed bird watching and fishing. The only thing I would recommend when staying here is having some earplugs for sleeping. There are train tracks very close by and the train does run through the day/night. Other than that, it was a perfect stay and made our Memorial Day weekend so relaxing. Would recommend and will be back to stay again! :)

Weekend Trip to Bayfront Resort at Cross View

The campground was really nice! Everything was clean and in great shape. My girls loved all the wildlife in the area and the fishing was good. We will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Uncle Chuck's Cabin

Beautiful area, clean, lots of wood, a generator, a beautiful dead tree, a hiking trail nearby, lovely water, wildlife, safe spot for my cat and I to enjoy.

Weekend Trip to Riverside Camping

Fun place by the river with only a few sites. There is a train nearby but didn’t bother us very much. This is a good home base for birding activities!

Weekend Trip to Riverside Camping

The campsite was lovely: right on a small pond where I woke up to a deer drinking water, rabbits hopping about, a turtle, and bald eagles. Bryan and his wife were super friendly and gracious hosts- loved the tour of the animals and the eggs were delicious! Close enough to town to partake in a lot of different activities but still out of the way enough to feel out in nature. It is RIGHT NEXT TO a busy train track, though. Bring ear plugs if you're a light sleeper.

Weekend Trip to Riverside Camping

Great stop on our trip down south. The grass is super soft for walking around the site and they’re right on the river. Hosts were super friendly and welcoming!

Weekend Trip to SōLSTAY Lodging

A great stay for an amazing price! Bathrooms! Showers! A floating sauna right in Lake Erie. We loved the peaceful nature reserve trail. There were also entertainment and bar options which we didn’t partake in but it’s nice to have that option. Easy to get to-all great!

1 night at Riverside Camping

We had a wonderful time camping on Bryan’s Land. The location of site 2 is absolutely gorgeous. My son enjoyed exploring around the site with views of the bay and marsh. There is a port-o-potty within short walking distance of the site. It was very clean. Bryan and his wife checked up on us several times during our stay-even delivering firewood to us at our request. There are many activities on site including axe throwing, kayak rentals, and lots of cool animals to look at. We didn’t get to enjoy any of these things since it was chilly when we camped here- but we are definitely planning a trip back later this year when it is warmer.

1 night at Rusty's Retreat with pond and river

This is a very nice location, and the hosts were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. The camp sites are well thought out and designed as camp sites. This is not just parking in someone's back yard like some locations are. The hosts have put real effort into making a pleasant location. Highly recommend.

1 night at Serene Pasture Getaway

Booked a night here last minute as a getaway after a day at cedar point. All in all it’s about 50 minutes from the park. Loved the site, perfect for what I needed!

Weekend Trip to Rusty's Retreat with pond and river

Had a great and peaceful time out here would recommend a friend. Very relaxing.

Weekend Trip to Riverside Camping

We had such a wonderful experience! Great host's, welcoming and friendly. We had fun fishing, walking the land, and visiting all the animals. We can't wait to get back during warmer weather to go kayaking!

3 nights at Uncle Chuck's Cabin

Chuck was perfectly pleasant. Communicated well through the app. A gracious host indeed. Very cool place with striking views. Very comfortable.

1 night at Hempstock Farm

The site is a beautiful meadow, and the hosts could not be any more accommodating or friendly! The only issue I had was the area I was supposed to set up still had knee-high grass and I had a few ticks. The owners quickly set me up on site and a great spot and even allowed me to use the shower in the morning! Not sure that is a regular thing but regardless it is a nice spot

Rusty's Retreat with pond and river

13 sites · RVs, Tents10 acres · West Millgrove, OH

We bought this 125+ year old farm in 2010 with the hope of bringing it back to life. Overgrown and neglected, we have worked hard to make it a nice place for hiking, kayaking, fishing or any number of other activities. Peaceful and remote, the property has a beautiful brook that leads you to the South branch of the Portage river. Deer, turkey, geese, herons, mink and fox are just a few of our natural animal friends. Rusty the steer and his pony friends Lexi and Little Bits can be visited while they graze in the pasture. There are chickens and Brindle the barn kitty. We have the perfect place for dogs as well. We have four dogs that get along great with others and our fenced pond keeps them safe.

There is a beautiful longer walk to avoid the highway along a bike trail but if you have places to be, either ask us for a ride or best you have your own vehicle :) I walk all the time. Very doable just depends on your preference.

Heartland Homestead

Heartland Homestead is the perfect spot for you to enjoy away from home and in nature. With dreamy vibes and open skies, you can relax in our tent camping spots around Mother Oak or reserve a glamping cabin for a true unplugged experience - but make it comfy cozy. Depending on the time of year + season, you may see our goats, cows, pigs, chickens, or more! We may have pick-your-own tomatoes, pumpkins, + flowers as well Glamping Cabins We have two glamping cabins that include beds and lanterns so you get the feel of sleeping in nature but comfortably. Each cabin has a picnic table, fire pit, and charcoal grill. One cabin has a queen-size bed and the second has a full-size bed and a trundle bed with 2 twin-size mattresses. The cabins do not have electric or water. A porta-potty is located near the barn (a 5 minute walk) and a lug-able loo or portapotty will be available closer to the cabins depending on when you stay. We are happy to help get your gear back to the cabins with the farm cart and then it is an 8-minute walk along a hay pasture to the parking area. Tent Camping Our tent camping spots are located under Mother Oak, a 100-year-old oak tree in the middle of our farm. With ample shade, a fire pit, and nearby portapotty, you can relax under the stars into the night. Hiking trails weave through the back of the property and you are welcome to explore those as well. Because we are a working homestead and farm, a few things are true: -Sometimes there’s mud. We suggest boots for walking around the property and in the woods. -Our farm animals are great - and may also bite. Please do not pet or chase them. We are happy to arrange opportunities to interact with the animals. Just ask! -Not always, but at times, our neighbors will start farming early in the morning and you can hear their machinery. All of our sites have privacy but are not truly remote. We want you to enjoy yourselves but please be mindful that our house is on the property as well as our neighbors. Music needs to be turned down to a low level by 11 PM. We can accommodate pop-up campers, camper vans, etc near Mother Oak as well. Please message with any questions before reserving. Additional fees would apply. We can also accommodate larger tent camping groups depending on the day. Additional fees would apply. The homestead is located near 58 so you can hear cars during the day and night. The cabins are about a ½ mile from the road so the noise is greatly reduced. We regularly host modern homesteading workshops, full moon yoga, and sound baths at the farm. If you would like to inquire about booking one of these as an add-on to your stay, please message us! Conveniently located 1 mile from Oberlin College, 6 minutes from the turnpike (I-80), and 35 minutes from Cleveland, Heartland Homestead is like stepping away from the hustle of everyday life and into nature. Rural enough to feel like you've gotten away from suburbia but close enough for DoorDash, last-minute store runs, + all the yummy restaurants in Oberlin, we hope you enjoy stepping into our modern homestead as much as we enjoy hosting you!
