The cottage
My family stayed in the cabin and it was very peaceful and comfortable! Basil’s description of the cottage was right on. She was very nice and made us feel comfortable to ask if we needed anything. I would recommend!

First READ THE DESCRIPTION fully- the cottage only has an outhouse; the hot tub is extra, charged by the day.
The cottage was clean and cozy. The outhouse was as you would expect. The hot tub was next to the cottage, which might feel weird if you were camping elsewhere on the property and could potentially be loud to a cottage dweller. It is also next to the outdoor kitchen, which could be weird depending.
The outdoor shower was so cool- never thought I'd have a reason to say that in life.
Close to Serpent Mound, Peebles, etc.
Hosts were responsive and as friendly as we wanted- not intrusive.

Basil was a great host; quick responses and friendly. The eggs from her farm were delicious. The places is pet friendly . The property is beautiful with blenty of trees and trails to walk. The cottage comes equipped with lots of amenities such as, stove, mini refrigerator, microwave, window unit for cooling, cooking supplies, and coffee maker. You must provide your own towels and bedding. The cottage is close to Basil's house. Thank you for sharing your property with us.

We loved staying in the cottage. We stayed for almost a week with our dogs during an event and we found it to be very reasonable. Of course, taking a shower outside at 5 am in 45 degrees sounded daunting at first, but was surprisingly doable! And showering under the stars was an amazing experience. We did take advantage of the hot tub once and really enjoyed it. We cooked on the grill outside several times and were lucky enough to witness the Aurora Borealis one evening. They are attentive hosts but we were also given all the privacy we needed. I would absolutely recommend this place!

Quiet area, cute cabin with comfy beds. Emptying the gray water was not mentioned to us, & the bucket under the sink overflowed on our last day. Just be sure to ask about it!

The site was perfect, roomy and a good tent area. The hosts were super accommodating with a last minute booking and helpful with directions and firewood. The beehives were a pleasant surprise and the lake was gorgeous. We had a wonderfully relaxing evening from our everyday.

This stay was beyond perfect. The camping sites are awesome. The owners are kind. We stayed on the summer solstice and the view of the sky was lovely. This place provided a beautiful experience. Looking forward to returning next time I visit Serpent Mound again.

The sacred land is beautiful, well kept, crafted, and peaceful. I enjoyed my cottage stay, breakfast on the porch overlooking the pond and wildlife, and circled around the fire. The farm fresh eggs, firewood delivered to the pit, and the outdoor shower were delightful! I would definitely come again for a few more nights.

Super friendly & accommodating hosts - we only stayed for one night but it was a great spot to camp after visiting serpent mound!

Hipcamp/Home AFarm is aimed more for tent camping - for tent camping I’d give Home Afarm 5 stars. The camp site is lovely.
We were in a 32ft RV and although do-able getting to the site was a tight squeeze and we’ve got new tree branch scratches along the sides. Navigating the rocks on the driveway was also tricky & swinging it around to get out.
We were initially asked to park off the gravel driveway on the grass that sloped slightly so cars could still pass. This isn't practical / comfortable in a larger RV (small slopes feel a lot bigger!).
One of the reasons we booked was because of the shower, which was wasn’t working & cold only - refreshing but not ideal.
Overall I would recommend but not for larger RVs. The driveway is long enough to fit on but getting in/out could cause some damage.

Site 5: The Low Meadow
Home Afarm was a beautiful camping spot! It's in a really dark part of Ohio so you were able to see so many stars when the sky is clear. My girlfriend and I went here for her first ever camping trip and it could not have gone smoother.
The pond was also very nice as we were able to swim in it. It is not very big but the deeper parts of the water were very cool and refreshing.
Basil was also an amazing host. She was extremely helpful leading up to the trip answering any questions we had, and once we got there, she personally helped us get to our campsite.
Could not recommend home Afarm more! I will definitely be returning at some point.

Basil was very accommodating to us. We were able to get a spot on her land within 10 mins. as we were driving through town, looking for a place to stay! The campsite was shaded and large! There was a shower and an outhouse, as well as a fire pit and wood to purchase. I would definitely recommend Basil's site. She was also nice enough to recommend a Winery, Living Wright Winery, that we did go to and really enjoyed!!

Hi HipCamp Fam, this place is a beauty! We have been eyeing this location for a while and when we decided to go to the Serpent Mound this was in the area so it was a match made in heaven 🥹 I really liked going there in the winter months because we had the land pretty much to ourselves which is great for us since we have our 2 fur babies who ran until the stars came out! The hosts house is right next door but Jonah and Basil are fantastic hosts; they have the basics you need in the cabin and they are no bother plus they have cute dogs, too. So, it didn’t bother us one bit that their house was next door 😇 oh and the views there are gorgeous, you have an excellent view of the stars at night. Honestly can’t wait to go back during the summer equinox! Lastly, don’t forget to check out the Serpent Mound then stop by local fountain of youth. Such a cool experience.
Side note: there is this donut place like 15 minutes away with the best donuts I have ever had with great customer service, it’s called BEEKAYs and it is a must! You’ll be dreaming about those donuts 🍩

Basil's property, Home Afarm, is exactly as advertised. The tent sites are clean and really varied. The ones in the Oak grove are super private and shady and very close to the swimming pond. The site called the "Back Pocket" is at the very crest of a ridge, and faces east, so it gets full early morning sunlight, vampires be advised. I'm looking forward to staying there again, next time with more time to invest in actual camping, not just sightseeing.
The camp hosts are very pleasant, civilized and fun to talk to! Although the hot shower was officially shut down for the season, they took the time to temporarily set it up for us, which was really considerate of them.

Overall a great experience. Loved the nature and the owners were great! Only downside was that the curtains in the cabin were pretty sheer. Any other weekend probably not a big deal but it was our anniversary weekend and the cabin was closer to the house so, not as much privacy as was hoping for.
On the balance though, it was a nice get away for us as well as our two dogs and we will happily return. Just maybe not for a romantic getaway.

Had an excellent stay at Camper Camp. Had a nice flat and private spot to park. Being back from any main roads made for quiet evenings, but still close enough base camp to adventure around the Adams Co area. Basil got us set up with a new fire pit but the weather had other plans. We were able to connect to the wifi though and enjoyed a rainy night movie in the camper. Camp shower on site was most excellent! Instant hot water and plenty of room to clean up. This site is great value and we will definitely be back.

We stayed in the cabin and loved it! The property is tranquil and beautiful. It is a wonderfully quiet at night you can see all the stars. The cabin was fantastic and has everything you need - except make sure to bring your own water (as mentioned in the property description). The kitchen has a lot of dishes and pots and a super stove. The bunk beds are double sized. Between the bunks and the beds, you could sleep 6 people no problem. I think it would be a great place for a friend or family reunion- or for a study or meditation retreat.

My girlfriend and I had a great time staying at “The Cottage” at Home Afarm! The property was beautiful and it was really nice being able to let our dog roam leash-free. It was a very comfortable and clean space which felt like a steal for the price. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to stay in the area!
