This land is very spacious and open for you to explore as you wish. The site is definitely private and secluded which is the best part. There's plenty of shade and provided firewood which was great. The host was very responsive and generous. It seems like there had been a lot of excavating done recently which made it very muddy and not a lot of grass, other than that and the train I think I'll come back here again

We had a great time camping here for the weekend with our dog! If you're not used to train noise, I would maybe recommend bringing along a pair of earplugs, but we also heard tons of birds and other wildlife. The site has a lot of tree coverage and is far enough away from other sites that it's very private and peaceful, total bonus that firewood was provided! Not too far from Cuyahoga Valley National Park for some hiking and waterfalls.

BRX01, a private peaceful site.
Great secluded site for tent camping! Nick left us with a generous amount of firewood with easy access to more. The porta pot was clean and stocked.
We loved the soybean field, especially in the morning sun!

Booked a night here pretty spur of the moment and it’s not really camping season yet so I was surprised to see firewood stocked. We had a kid with us that was new to camping so this was a great first trip for him. The kids explored and the parents relaxed. This is close to my office so I’ll be adding it to my favorite.

Went there for Thanksgiving stayed on site BRX01 and of course I was the only idiot camping this time of year. Even though it was cold Nick provided plenty wood on the site and all through out if you need more. Each site has plenty of room makes you feel like your in your own piece of property. Would comeback under warmer conditions.

The site was easy to get to and it was a beautiful setting. There was firewood stacked and available for our use. There were frequent trains that ran on the tracks that are very close, but they didn't bother us.

BRX01, a private peaceful site.
This piece of property is beautiful. You get to go past fields, railroad tracks, an old oil well then into the woods. And once you’re up in there, it’s magnificent. It was private, the ports potty on property was convenient, the fire area was perfect, and my dog had the best damn time of his life. While i was eating dinner Nick and a friend of his rolled past just to make sure i had enough fire wood and he was super nice and All around good vibe from him. You can hear when the train goes by but it didn’t bother me one bit. Definitely a place i’d recommend.

Loved that fire wood was provided. Very private. Lots of wild life. If you don’t like lots of noise, not the place for you. Train passes by every so often

I had a great time moto-camping here. Plenty of firewood was provided and the manicured forest made for an excellent hang in my camping hammock. The trail beckoned exploration and a ravine to the north made the spot feel more secluded. The bathroom was indoors but some distance away (350 yards). It's a nice gateway to full on dispersion camping if you'd like to test gear with the safety net of civilization. The host, Nick, was jovial and enthusiastic about my stay. I enjoyed riding my adv bike back to camp. There are, however, plenty of trains rolling at all hours so bring earplugs. American freight never sleeps! If you're looking for a late-night put-in with your motorcycle crew, I wouldn't worry about waking anyone up. The axe-throwing was a highlight of my stay!

BRX02 Private Large Site
The site is spacious and secluded. I definitely recommend if you have a large group but don’t want a standard campground. The train tracks are busy and close, so if you don’t think you can sleep through the train, then maybe not for you. We didn’t mind it.

I had a great time at Barrel RUN #4. Site was private and had plenty of firewood. The creek that runs right behind the site is a nice scenic touch. Would recommend 👌

We always love tent camping on Nick's land! We come here every year in September and love it every time! It's secluded and beautiful! I love being surrounded by the amazing trees and wildlife! He has a great fire pit, picnic table, portapotty, and some axes for throwing! Tons of space! Nick is great, too! Love it here and will continue to camp on Nick's land for years to come!

The site we stayed at was very spacious and very pretty. The host was very kind and very helpful with directions. There was tons of firewood available for us to use which was awesome. There were two bathrooms, a porta john close to the site and an indoor bathroom they keep open. Both were very useful. Overall, great site, great times, and we'll be back in the Spring.

The sites are flat and there is pleanty of space for multiple tents. They are very secluded and the free fire wood is a great bonus. Stayed here two times already and would come back again.

This is the second time we've stayed at this site and we loved it just as much as the first time. The property had more campers than it did the first timewe camped there. So we did occasionally see someone walk by our site with their dog. And one car turned around in the driveway for our site, probably in the process of finding their owns site. But beyond that we never heard anything from any of the other sites. We did get some rain one night and the next morning/afternoon. But the tree canopy gives great coverage and it was not problematic at all. The canopy also provided tons of shade and relief from the high temps and humidity. We will be back!

Loved this site! In the woods, shaded and secluded. Lots of bugs so make sure to bring bug spray. If trains bother you, this isn’t the spot for you but the noise didn’t bother us. A perk was free firewood! Came up this way to hike at Cuyahoga NP. If we’re ever in the area again, we will be back!

BRX04 a private, scenic location.
Had a great time with family! Nice private spot on a farm. Set up 4 tents no problem. Nice stock of free firewood set on site and a restroom with hot water sink a short walk away. Great host, well maintained with a trash can on site as well.
High speed trains barrel through all night but other than that, overall a nice experience.

Site was super clean, and lots of wood for burning and cooking. Best part is how far back it is and super quiet. Me and my family loved staying here.

Barrel run is a great place to stay whether it be for a night or a week. ( I stayed 3 nights / 4 days ) Plenty of walking to be done and fire wood to burn. Natures sound is great in the morning and at night. Nick was very kind in letting us set off fireworks for the 4th of July as well as let us have a few extra people come visit to watch. The campsites are in fact private. During my visit I’m not sure if anyone else was camping at the other sites. We didn’t see anyone else the whole time we were camping. Oh yeah, the fire pit is top notch when it comes to airflow. Nick put great effort into making sure the fire pit burns REALLY GOOD. The site was very clean and easy to choose a tent spot. BRX01 I feel could hold up to 3 8x8 tents comfortably with room to still not be crunched together. There is a train near by but wasn’t a bother at all. Just like any camping trip. Be sure to bring the bug stuff as there is plenty of bugs to go around 😆
10/10 will be going again before the end of this year (2024)
