Arcadian Oasis
Tent camping in comfort!
Arcadian Oasis is very spacious with a comfy bed for 2 and plenty of floor space for 1 or 2 others. It was well equipped with a power station, light, stove, cold box and even a can of insect spray (which we put to good use). It has a great deck looking toward the lake, and a fire pit. We only stayed 1 night, so we didn't brave the outdoor shower! Pit toilets are basic but well maintained.
The site was very peaceful, with well distanced sites and is excellent for tent camping. The star gazing is amazing. It is both very rural, but also close to shops and sights in Ironton and close to some beautiful state parks. Highly recommend!

We had the best time camping at AVO and Michael is such a wonderful and warm host. Having access to the state park and kayaking on the lake made the trip extra special, especially to see the Eclipse. Michael has built something truly spectacular there and clearly has put a ton of love and care into this spot, with many attention to details. It's a camping haven with many amenities!
This would be a great campground to group camp with a crew of friends. Bedrock worked well for us as it was quiet and a bit further from many of the other campgrounds. It was just a short walk up to the pit toilet and a bit more of a walk to get to the front of the campground, but we didn't mind this at all as we spent most of our time at our site birdwatching and stargazing!
There was a sauna, hot tub, and even a shower that could be used which we did not expect. We had a nice bench to do all of our food prep and cooking and having the truck bed tent was so nice for one of our group members who didn't have to worry about setting up a tent.
We would recommend exploring and taking full advantage of the kayaks while you're there and making it up to Taum Sauk state park. It is so breathtaking! Thanks for a great trip, we only wished we lived closer and could visit more often!

Arcadia Valley Outdoors is a wonderful camp ground. The young couple that are developing the property and are the camp host's are really friendly and helpful. The bathrooms are clean and potable water is available in various locations in the campground. My stay was quiet and very relaxing. The campground is next to small lake and kayaks are available to use for free to take out on the lake. Very nice place to stay....

The campground was unique and well-maintained, the hosts were friendly and made coffee in the morning, and the lake was lovely. New sauna and tub, kayaks available to use. Will absolutely return.
