What a cool little place. Stanley and his family have something going for them. The cabin as your night time ambiance is great for any dark enthusiast. 4 German Shepherds for those lovers of the breed. Having the turkey as your white noice was a great experience. So many other cool city escapes scattered across their property (even pigs). Take out what you take in as always!

Staying on Beth’s property was amazing! It was the perfect secluded spot to camp out for a few days while visiting Hocking Hills. She was very kind and helpful throughout our stay and we hope we can make it back one day!

This place is a private spot on about 80 acres. There is a wonderful path through the woods to the top of a hill for stargazing at night. The catch and release pond is across the street on their property and just the perfect size. There are multiple trails throughout the property. Lots of wildlife and beautiful nature to immerse yourself in. The hostess is very friendly and accommodating. Oh, I would highly recommend getting the lights to surround your tent area to make it easy to find your way back if you night hike. This is the perfect place to unplug!

We chose this site for a fall friends trip and couldn't have been happier about the spot! Gorgeous views, attentive host, and decent seclusion. The site was well maintained and the retreat wasn't crowded with too many camping spots. Almost zero road noise so evenings were very peaceful. Highly recommend, and we will be returning for years to come. Thank you for a great weekend, Daniel!

Roger was super nice and the trails he's got on the property are great! Loads of wildlife all over the place. Super knowledgeable about the local birds and just as a storm was rolling in, he rolled down the hill to come check on us.

I'd come back any time.

This was such a lovely trip! Between the sounds of nature, a nice fire at night, and some fishing and hiking during the day, this trip was everything that I hoped for! Beth was a lovely host, and helped me bring my stuff to and from the campsite. I'm already considering going back in the future, because I know it'll be just as peaceful and relaxing as it was this trip too!

Beth’s camp site was perfect! It was secluded and serene. The site was very well maintained. We paid extra for the string lights and jackery and it was worth it. Beth exceeded expectations as a host. She was helpful and kind. Communication was quick and clear. Scout was a fantastic welcoming, host!

Great site. Owner Dan Sr and Dan Jr were great and friendly. Awesome being able to have full hook up for our 5th wheel. 50A was available. Very quiet and was able to enjoy the evenings with just our friends who was camping with us. Will definitely stay there again.

Adam is an excellent host! My family needed some extra accommodation as the camp was a little further walk than we expected, and Adam made sure to get us to a campsite where we were nice and comfortable! The area is lush and quiet, we loved being close to the farm. There are plenty of good spots for top-notch stargazing as well!

I really enjoyed the peace and quiet of camping on Beth and Brian’s land. They were very accommodating to me (a motorcycle camper). I purchased firewood from them and it was there when I arrived. Will definitely camp here again and will shoot a video for my YouTube channel. A very nice experience that I highly recommend. But a word of caution, if you are intending to ride your motorcycle to the campsite, it better be an off-road or adventure bike. Otherwise it is best to park in the provided parking area.

This is hand's down my favorite Hipcamp yet! It's a beautiful spot, perfect for being immersed in nature and "off grid", although I did have cell reception while I was there. I had planned on using this as a base camp for exploring other parks in the area, but after arriving I didn't want or need to leave! The interconnected trails on the property provide plenty of hiking and wandering opportunities, and the pond is the perfect addition for swimming, fishing, or just relaxing.
Beth is a wonderful host! She was kind, helpful, and communicative, and her directions made getting there very easy.
I"m already planning my next trip there!

This site was lovely, plenty of room and multiple hammock hanging options. In addition to a picnic table there were two lounge chairs and a patio table with chairs. The swimming hole a very short walk away was great.

Where to go
Huntington Surrounds
Huntington and its immediate surroundings offer plenty to discover for nature lovers. The Paul Ambrose Trail for Health is a multi-use trail stretching more than 18 miles along the Ohio River, open to cyclists, runners, and walkers. It passes through various points of interest like scenic overlooks and historical sites. One stop is Ritter Park, a favorite spot for outdoor activities that boasts over 100 acres of green space. The Huntington Museum of Art features serene outdoor gardens and sculptures, and the Heritage Farm Museum and Village has a charming petting zoo and provides a glimpse into the region's past.
New River Gorge National Park & Preserve
Head east along I-64 and arrive in this outdoor lover's paradise in around two hours. Recently upgraded to national park status, it's known for its world-class rapids–whitewater rafting and kayaking are especially popular here. The hiking and biking trails are suitable for all skill levels. Alternatively, go rock climbing, take a scenic drive through the countryside, or learn about the region’s history at the Beckley Exhibition Coal Mine.
Beech Fork State Park
Less than 30 minutes from Huntington, Beech Fork State Park spans 3,000 acres filled with hiking and biking trails. The park's centerpiece is Beech Fork Lake, which offers fishing, boating, swimming, and sunbathing on the sandy beach. Exploring the park's 26 miles of trails through rolling hills and hardwood forests is a treat for hikers and mountain bikers.
When to go
The best time to visit Huntington is from late spring through early fall, with the most pleasant weather in the spring and fall months. Summers can be hot and humid, but the area's many lakes and parks provide relief from the heat. The fall foliage in the area is particularly vibrant in October and November. Winters can be cold, but snowshoeing and cross-country skiing are popular at nearby state parks.
