Known in these parts as the Chapman Farm, this 135 year old homestead was once a thriving self-sufficient homestead and is one of the few family farms that escaped a buy-out from coal-mining investors back in the 70's. After many years in disrepair, we purchased the farm in 2006 with the intent to regenerate the pastures and return them to a state for healthy food production. We added four sheep to the farm in 2010 and at our peak, managed as many as 150 ewes and lambs, taking full advantage of our hillsides, valleys, woodlots and open pastures to intensively manage grazing and offering nutritious grass-fed lamb to our local community. Learn more about this land: Surrounded by 3500 acres of privately owned forest in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, My Spot Campsite is easily accessible and offers a perfect retreat to this peaceful countryside.  My Spot is so tranquil, private and scenic, that you may never want to leave camp until it's time to head home. However, if  exploration is your aim, 80 acres of private pastures, forests and trails offer breathtaking views where you might catch a glimpse of grazing sheep or free-ranging hens. Just a short hike from camp, you’ll find the pond a great place for cooling off or for catching fish.  Evenings can be enjoyed at the campfire or trekking to the nearest pasture hilltop for some amazing stargazing. If venturing further out interests you, Lake Snowden, a 15 minute drive, offers kayaking, canoeing, swimming and the popular Paw-Paw Festival in September. Hocking Hills State Park, the charming college town of Athens, and the quaint riverfront village of Pomeroy are all a short 30 minute drive. For more information about the farm and happenings in the area, check our Facebook Page (www.facebook.com/findawayfarm).

Amazing place!
Gorgeous spot! I love that we were next to a creek, and that the space for our tent was pretty flat. I bought a bundle of wood as an extra and the hosts provided plenty of wood for us, not just an armload. Lovely spot with lovely hosts; we'll definitely be back!

We had a wonderful weekend camping- the hosts were amazingly kind and accommodating. They took our gear to the site from the parking area using a 4x4, which was very helpful and convenient. We added the firewood, led lights and a battery power pack- all of which they provided for a small, reasonable fee. The entire weekend was perfect for us- a completely private and unique experience that we can’t wait to do again. Thank you!!

Beautiful setting in the woods. Hosts were so nice and accommodating. They even helped transport some of our gear to the campsite. Hosts are very responsive as well. We camped with 3 kids and the experience was exactly what we needed. Thanks!

Idyllic spot for primitive camping. Beautiful farm, peaceful setting off the beaten path. Camped here as an alternative to busy campground tent site at Hocking Hills. Totally worth it! Hosts are super!

This campsite is just what my family needed. Rain the whole time we were there, but being under a canopy of trees shield us from a lot of rain. Love this campsite!!

Secluded camping on a family farm
Beth and her husband were perfect hosts! The camp site is nestled in the woods under a tree canopy that keeps out most of the heavy rain. If you want a place to pretend like there is no one on the planet but you, this spot is perfect, BUT it'd also perfect if your looking for a property with tons to do because they open their entire 80 acres to their guests. Close to great rec areas. We will, without a doubt, remember Beth the next time we are planning a camping trip.

This is one of the best places on here. Set back in the woods with plenty of tree cover. Even though the days were hot an humid in the sun, the camp site stayed a perfect temperature. There were plenty of hiking trails, and the pond was nice. Tons of wild life, especially deer just haning out. I can't imagine going to another site after going here.

My Spot At Find A Way was a beautiful spot for a weekend trip. It all began when we met our wonderful host Beth by her barn and she helped us get our gear out to the camp spot on her quad. The grill over the campfire made cooking easy and the water provided was more than enough for all our needs. The birds were singing and the weather great. Lots of places to explore too! We didn’t get around to enjoy the pond but would definitely make the effort when next we visit. I cannot recommend this place enough.

This was such a great spot for my fiancé and I. The campsite is very peaceful by a creek. Beth was a terrific host. We had such a good time we're already thinking about coming back sometime later this year.

Private piece of heaven
We had a great time camping on Beth’s land. There was a bit of a hike to the site but nothing too crazy. Toilet was perfect, fire pit was nicely built out and had a grill attached. The table was a luxury. Even did some foraging and found some morels.

Quiet campsite
Loved the site, which is set back in the woods. Brian the host loaded up our gear and took it back for us. Site is very quiet and well situated. Plenty of space to set up and a great hammock spots too. Beth and Brian are wonderful and very helpful, getting you settled in. Plenty of land to walk around and explorer. Definitely will return.

What a great camping site! The host was super sweet and responsive. There might not be cell service nearby but the stay was definitely worth it. I would recommend staying here over a crowded state park. There's a short hike to the spot but that helps it stay quiet and remote. Across the street are also some precious sheep - always a bonus in my book.

This was exactly what we were hoping for and more. The property is beautiful. We enjoyed hanging out at the pond close to her house, and doing a little wandering in the hills, but spent most of the time at the campsite, which is across the street from her house and a walk into the woods. Beth made herself available to greet us, offered to help haul our stuff to the site, made sure we had accurate directions, and was FANTASTIC at responding to communication before, during and after our stay! Everything was perfect. We arrived with just enough time to set up before dark, and it gets VERY dark in the woods. But everything went smoothly, spot for the tent was nice and flat, outhouse was perfect (actual seat, curtain, tp and hand sanitizer provided, etc). Nice firepit with grill, water provided, and plenty of firewood for the additional fee. Setting up a hammock next to the little mossy stream was magical. One charming moment was when a couple of deer (doe and her fawn I think) stopped by at the same time both mornings, to graze a few yards away from our tent. We felt there was a nice balance between feeling safe and being able to ask for help, yet being truly secluded. We did not hear any traffic sounds or anything, only a few planes overhead during our stay. It was a wonderful break from normal life in Columbus. Extremely peaceful. Thank you Beth, we look forward to staying here again!

Perfect Weekend Getaway
We had a wonderful time at Find A Way Farm! Beth and her friendly dogs were there to greet us when we arrived and she gave us a ride to the campsite so that we didn't have to carry all of our gear which was really nice! The property is beautiful and truly secluded so that we could relax away from the sounds of traffic and cities. We visited the awesome caves at Hocking Hills which is nearby (about 45 minutes away). This was a perfect place to get away from it all. Thanks so much Beth!

Great spot, very relaxing.
Great spot. Really nice under the canopy of trees. Small creek running next to site and the property is great for hiking and relaxing. 30 minutes drive to a couple great state parks (Zaleski, Lake Hope, Strouds Run, Lake Alma, etc…). We basically just relaxed at the site for most of our long weekend there.

Staying at Beth’s was so peaceful and relaxing! The perfect getaway for my husband and I. We were greeted warmly by Beth and her husband and they helped us get all our gear out to the site. Plenty of fish to catch and the campsite is tucked back into the woods to perfectly you just want to sit and listen the night away.. can’t wait to bring our kids back with us!

A beautiful spot to camp with my family! Beth was a friendly and accommodating host. The campsite was gorgeous and the surrounding farm area was a lovely place to explore in the evening. We walked up to the pond for some fishing and spotted a few sheep along the way. An enjoyable weekend - would stay again!
