We loved staying at Myra's cabin. Comfy beds, clean, good shower, and responsive host. There is a spiral staircase that took us a bit to get used to, but we all did, kids included. Great location between Cleveland & DC.

The camp site was beautiful and spacious for four people. The compost toilet was in good condition although the temps were too cold for the showers. Jennifer had plenty of wood for purchase and we had a great time with the farm dog, although he can be nosey at night and is a good reminder to pack up all food and food items well and securely when camping. We would definitely return!

It was great to camp at possum tail. Rain moved in while I was there, but I had a great view of storms coming across the mountains in the distance. Bishop the big friendly farm dog dog stopped by a couple of times. He was well trained and a good watch dog at night, which was a bonus in this remote area.

Jennifer and Brian were great hosts and their property is beautiful! Our puppy and their farm dog Bishop were best buddies by the end of our stay.

This was our second stay at this campsite. Both times we've had a blast. The camp hosts are very friendly and accomodating, including Bishop the farm dog.
This time we brought two kids who had two kids who had never been camping before, and it was the perfect place to introduce them to it.

We were looking for a dog-friendly cabin to meet family halfway between Cleveland and DC. Myra made everything easy. The cabin is easy to access, and the property is beautiful. There's a large hiking area behind the cabin. We enjoyed the very nice grill on the deck. Our 2-year-old loved his first campfire and s'more!

Weekend Trip to Lily Pad Cabin & Mojo's Loft
I loved staying at Mojo's Loft! The property is beautiful, and the hosts were so friendly to me and my dog who was with me. The fenced in yard was great for my dog to be able to wander around off-lead.

The plot is pretty much what everyone else has said and described. Very basic but the campsite area is clean which we appreciated very much.
Jennifer and her husband were very accommodating with what we needed to set up our SUV tent. Like Jennifer said the view of the sunset was beautiful and we loved seeing the cows, hearing the frogs and knowing that Bishop the dog had us "safe" over night ;)
We ended up having to leave one night early and again Jennifer made sure we got looked after so as hosts I would give them 5 stars out of 5!
Tasty eggs too 😋

Jennifer was very warm and kind and immediately ready for us upon our arrival. The campsite is very large and private, and the compost potty is a very neat idea! We got rained out unfortunately, but it was overall a very great experience and I would recommend it to anyone! Bishop the big goofy lovey dog was a wonderful surprise as well!!!

3 nights at Lily Pad Cabin & Mojo's Loft
Great little loft. Basically like having your own efficiency apartment, complete with bathroom and kitchen. Would rent this before a hotel room any day. You can hear people in the garage below occasionally but I think the loft is actually more private than the Lily Pad Cabin because of it's elevated nature, and the entrance is up a flight of steps in the back yard (which is super nice if your have a dog or cat you need to let out). I was very pleased with the level of peace and quiet as I came here to study and would never know a major highway is 1000 feet away. Feels like being in the country!
Price was reasonable for the level of comfort and extra attention to detail the owners clearly take to make this feel like a special place. Make sure to read about their charity! It is named after their dog Mojo and they do a lot of amazing work for shelters. My cat who stayed here is a rescue, and she says she approves! 👍 👍 🐾

Myra was welcoming and the cabin was very clean. We enjoyed the outdoor fire pit. There were several state parks local to the area that were convenient to get to.
