Purchased in 2019, these overgrown acres are now a federally registered Farm with the crop being Trees, and have a 10 year Woodland Stewardship Management Plan with the Ohio Dept of Natural Resources. I will be working hard over the years to bring this back to a healthy stand of mixed hardwoods, full of wildlife habitat, and native vegetation. 2024 saw the start of our EQIP contract which includes killing the non-native invasives, like Tree of Heaven, Autumn Olive, Honeysuckle, and more. 2025 was planting, staking, and tubing of 800 tree seedlings, including Black Walnut, Red Oak, Scarlet Oak, Sugar Maple, Persimmon, and Tulip Poplar.
Learn more about this land:
Enjoy approximately 10 wooded acres with hiking trails cut throughout.
A common area has a Fire Ring, Outhouse, Water Station, Picnic Tables and Seats, where you can socialize with fellow campers, whether they be family, old friends, or new acquaintances.
Or you can retreat a short distance away to your own campsite, for some alone time. The three campsites are adjacent to each other, but divided by walls of brush and newly planted shrubs. You may hear other campers, but your space is well defined. It is approximately 50-70 ft from the center of one campsite to the next, and a similar distance from the center of each campsite to the common area.
Hiking trails are cut throughout the woods, so feel free to explore. Just stay within the wire fence lines to avoid crossing onto neighboring private lands. The main pond seen from the parking area is off limits for liability reasons. I am working on a smaller ravine pond in the woods, which I will stock with fish for feeding.
This is a Federal and State managed Woodland, so please do no harm to any living tree or plant. Feel free to pick up any dead wood for use in the fire ring. (Cut Firewood also provided for free at campsite. Do not bring your own firewood.) We have a self serve store, that will have charcoal, farm fresh eggs, and other seasonal and camping items. Bring some cash.

Jody is a great host and her land is beautiful. We wanted to escape the city and have a chance to see the northern lights. It was amazing to sit out in her field and watch shooting stars and the aurora!

The setup was well thought out, everything I needed was right there. I really appreciated all the wood provided for the firepit, it made the evening cozy and relaxing. The location was wonderfully quiet and peaceful, just what I was hoping for. The dogs and I loved hiking through the woods, such a beautiful and serene experience.

We booked this spot for my daughter’s 8th birthday and every detail was perfect. The spot is a short walk from the car, but feels very private and peaceful. We loved the area nearby with swings, toys and the sink at the shelter was very convenient. To top it off, the cinnamon rolls were a delight. We highly recommend!

We usually camp in state parks, but after camping on Sheila's land, we may never camp anywhere else!
We stayed at site 2, Peaceful Stream. The farm was beautiful, we had such a private site, and our hosts were wonderful. Definitely go for the cinnamon rolls - they're wonderful. The land brings forth such a peaceful feeling. And the amenities were more than satisfactory - a clean porta-jon, a shower with a shower bag, and running water. It felt like we were the only people around for miles. The site is a short walk from the car, down a little mulched path. There are even wagons to use to haul your camping gear. The hosts thought of everything, and I know we'll definitely be back.

Fantastic last minute stay. I needed a place quickly and Bill was communicative and accommodating. The location was easy to find; parking was below their main building and camp was maybe 150 feet from there down a path/lane. Very easy access, but be prepared to haul stuff a little way to the camp. The actual campsite is fantastic. It’s very private, situated very nicely on a clearing surrounded by a heavily wooded area, a three sided shelter, fire pit, and latrine. There are a few short trails down over the hill.
I heard coyotes and barred owls all night. Very lovely experience.

Great campsite! This was a perfect first camping experience for my dog. We were nervous to take her to a larger campground with other dogs and people nearby. She did great without the distraction of others! Bonus points to Bill for the large stock of very dry firewood!
