Primitive tent camping on the Greenville Peace Treaty Line, Buckeye Trail, Ohio-Erie Canal Towpath Trail, Scenic Byway, Tuscarawas River Water Trail, and the Great American Rail Trail! Located on the historic Ohio-Erie Canal between the village of Bolivar Ballparks and the McDonnell trailheads on the towpath trail ten miles south of Canton, Ohio, and 1.5 miles west of I-77 exit 93 on Scenic Byway Rt 212 in beautiful Tuscarawas County, Ohio. The Peace Park is designed for bikers, hikers, dog walkers, and anyone traveling through to book a campsite even if anyone isn't available to meet and greet. Campers, once booked may go to an available campsite and set up camp. Dog-friendly, handicapped-accessible Porta-Jon with hand sanitizer shared electricity for charging phones, pristine aquifer water, picnic tables, fire-pits, fireside benches, birds, butterflies, lightning bugs, wild turkey, deer, and other wildlife are often seen. Please note: We're located on a section of the Ohio-Erie Canal Scenic Byway, the Wheeling and Lake Erie Railroad, and a 90-degree corner with a slight slope that causes trucks to downshift brake, we recommend bringing earplugs if you're a light sleeper!Primitive tent camping on the Greenville Peace Treaty Line, Buckeye Trail, Ohio-Erie Canal Towpath Trail, Scenic Byway, Tuscarawas River Water Trail, and the Great American Rail-Trail!

Peace Park Campsites on the Towpath
OK Place but Needs Better Upkeep
It's on OK piece of land and the picnic tables and umbrellas are nice, but if a guest reserves a spot and pays in advance, you have to mow the grass before they arrive. 6"-8" of grass and weeds is not OK for a "campsite."

Joe was a great host! He taught us the history of his land and we had a great time.

This wasn't what I was expecting, and between the dilapidated trailer and houses, the guy with large unleashed dogs, and the firepit filled with beer cans I didn't feel safe staying there. I think this could be a place other people, maybe more adventurous than me, would be fine staying. The grass in all the sites was recently mown, and there was some privacy available next to the road.

A great spot for explorers
This is a great spot for people adventuring along the Towpath Trail, Buckeye Trail, or the Tuscarawas River. It's literally on the trail, and a treeline away from the river (you can't access the river directly from the site, but there's a launch a few hundred feet up the road). Joe was very friendly and informative when I met him on my arrival. I had the place to myself for two nights, but if more people had come by there would have been plenty of room for all of us to enjoy our own space.

Joe has a great property for camping right along the Ohio & Erie trail! He was friendly and hospitable! I would recommend his spot for anyone passing through or looking for a hideaway from the business of life!
