With over 230 acres, a lake, trails, the Grand River, and plenty of wildlife. Bass and Buck Adventures is the perfect place to get away. Once known as Parkman Gorge the valley was a hub for water powered industry in the early 1800's. The river and valley is home to a wide array of wildlife. Deer, turkey, eagles, hawks, owls, mink, river otters to name a few. The area also attracts many song birds including a wide variety of warblers. There is also an abundance of wild flowers. The valley is rich in Native American history. Many artifacts have been found on the property. My great grandfather talked about the last Native American to live in Parkman had a cabin on one of the bluffs along the river. In the 1820's there was a water powered sawmill and forge on the river. The boy scouts used the valley for a camp in the 1930's. My grandpa purchased this property in the 50's from Ohio Edison. Ohio Edison's plan to dam up the river for hydro power never materialized. The valley has been a favorite for outdoor enthusiasts. Camping, hiking, fishing, hunting, "jeeping". Many of the items used for the camp sites have been reclaimed. The fire rings are old tractor rims and scrap steel. The tent platform is from reclaimed deck lumber. The firewood is excess cutoffs purchased from a local sawmill.

Great Campsite and Property!
We love tent camping and this place was exactly what we were looking for. Great site with trails to hike and beautiful property to wander around. Easy to get to and for the first 3 days we didn’t see or hear a single person. We would Absolutely come again!!!

Happy campers
I took my wife and 2 kids to The Lake view, it was exactly as described. It’s got the full exiting camp vibe with the picturesque view. I wouldn’t recommend going here unless you have a 4x4 or all wheel drive, but I’m sure if it’s not too wet you’d be fine. We loved that the spot is right above the lake and the kids tried hard to catch a fish but they just ate the worms off our hook. The bathroom is a little trip, but so is it to get more fire wood. So we made a trip out of it and of course the kids loved that. We loved that the fire wood supply is practically unlimited. Overall its was a trip that was very enjoyable and a memorable experience. Kudos to Rick for keeping the grounds in perfect shape and being so welcoming.

We had a great time camping at Big Bend! Awesome camp site and all the wood we needed during our stay. Did a little fishing on the river for bluegill. Thanks Rick for sharing your place with us. We’re looking forward to another visit in the future!

Great spot and property
Beautiful property overall. It was perfect to "rough" it. We loved the creek that had small but hungry fish in it. Quiet and pristine. Great communication from the host.
