Summer is wrapping up and it's not going out quietly. Big Storms! and more Big storms have left their marks and created some cleanup duties for us! The steamy weather has created a very lush, very green Away. We can't wait to see what Autumn does with all this greenery! Many dates are booked for guests or maintenance. But reach out if there's a date you're looking for - we might have wiggle room. Away sits at the entry point to western Boone County in Northern Kentucky — neighbor to Cincinnati, Rabbit Hash, and the Ohio River. Our 27 acres mark where rolling farmland gives way to steep, forested hillsides. Our end-of-the-road ridgetop is private by nature. Campsites are tucked in woods shared with turkey, deer, owls, and woodpeckers. Wander wide strolling paths, single-track hiking trails, open fields, and forest — or settle onto the porch of a historic log home. Curvy, scenic roads lead quickly from the paved world of Union, KY to us — and onward to the Rabbit Hash General Store, the Ohio River, Dinsmore Homestead, Middle Creek Park, Big Bone State Park, and the Creation Museum. Boating, kayaking, biking, hiking, or lazing in tiny riverfront towns, all just minutes away. We're a quieter, acoustic kind of place. Great for travelers passing through or locals needing a quick and beautiful outing. Solo campers, friends, families — newbies or seasoned. Drive-in sites make loading and unloading easy. Amenities: Privacy! We book only two sites at a time, set far apart and wrapped in woods. Also included: an exceptional outhouse, tables, fire rings, lanterns, and a Welcome kit (paper, fatwood, lighter, candle). Firewood available for purchase onsite. Site 1 – Open Sky — A large field edged by forest. Fits solo or groups, tents to small campers. Extras: hammock, trampoline, badminton & cornhole by request. The largest, easist to access site and closest to all amenties. Site 2 – Gobbler's Knob — Cozier. A small rise surrounded by woods. Short walk to the outhouse and firewood shed. Park on-site or at the entrance, just 50' away. Site 3 – Henry's Holler — By request only. 4WD exclusively. Read full site description before requesting. All sites welcome tents, small pop-ups, pull-behind trailers, and hammocks. Be Away - Do nothing or do something.

Site 2 – Gobbler's Knob — Named for the flock of turkeys we spooked on our first walk of the land. A private perch on a small forested hill, with direct access to The Great Googly Moogly Trail. Short stroll to the outhouse, short drive to the woodpile. Best for two tents and two cars. Accommodates pop-ups, rooftop tents, and small trailers. Drive right up — or in soggy weather, a short walk from the flat parking spot 50' below.

Site 1 – Open Sky is our largest, most accommodating spot and closest to the woodshed and outhouse. A spacious open field with shady trees, forest edges, and immediate access to walking paths, the frog pond, and the historic log cabin. Extras include a hammock, trampoline, and badminton & cornhole by request. The flat, open layout welcomes multiple tents or campers, larger groups, outdoor games, and kids roaming free. Ridge-top views in winter, lush green in summer — easy living in the great outdoors.

3 - Henry's Holler

Site 3 – Henry's Holler — By request only, send us a message. Despite the name, it's actually a plateau tucked in forest — but Henry's Holler just rolled off the tongue. This one's for 4WD vehicles only. The access road is steep and gets uncertain in wet weather for 2WDs. It sits farther from the outhouse, though it's a short walk or quick drive. Being nearer the property edge means a greater chance to hear our neighbors - still rare but a chance. Your surrounded by forested, steep hillside so you won't be seeing anyone. And fair warning — there's a big military transport vehicle on site. Some love it, but it's decidedly not a natural feature. This site is best suited for self-contained overlanders, van campers, and low-maintenance tent folks. Comes with fire ring, table, lantern, and welcome kit. Message us and we'll confirm you've read through and accept these conditions. We promise less and charge less — but if this is your kind of spot, we're glad to have you.

    Beautiful star gazing campground with the cleanest, most put together outhouse we have ever seen. Nature is stunning all around and fun to play badminton. Thank you for making our stay special! We loved it and hope to come back one day!
