Customer service is really amazing here and the owner is an amazing women. Our stay was a little different as it rained during our stay and we forgot to take her advice that it would rain and put the top of the tent on!
The only thing I would say that I wasn't expecting was all of the bugs and spiders that were around! Expect to cover yourself in bug spray 😊 Beautiful spot!
The bathroom was very nice and the historic cabin was cool! The host where very accommodating and pleasant. My only criticism would be that for a longer stay the lack of shower was a negative. We took a solar shower but we didn't have a place to hang it. So just keep that in mind. We also brought our own grate to cook over the fire. It worked perfectly but if you plan to cook you will want to bring one. We purchased the wood add on and it made things super easy! It was a great location for us between Cincinnati and the ark but there was alot of plane activity as we were near the airport. It wasn't overly loud tho and didn't bother us. It was very private and the kids enjoyed the trampoline alot!
Had a great time camping. Campsite was very clean and well taken care of. Lots of nature around which makes the experience great!! Would highly recommend.
Huge land and clean, quiet and lots of animals , great hiking trails in property. Even provides picnic table and fire starters
This was our second camping experience here, and it was just as good as the first. The hosts are lovely and good with communication, and the property is pretty and well-tended. Well seasoned and stocked firewood, very nice composting toilet, and great spots for tents.
2nd time at this location - loved it. Mike and Terri take great care of the details (communication, fire kit, picnic tables, lanterns, maps, signage, and super clean) you show up and enjoy the space. Very peaceful and quiet. Will certainly come back again.
Second time this month camping at this location. We had a great time again. Great location.
