Summary AI-generated from real reviews
We had a great experience staying at Bear Cabin! We had to find something semi last minute in the area, and this was such a hidden gem! Far enough away from town to feel like you are in the middle of the woods but close enough that you don't have to drive too far for groceries. Cabin was very clean and beds were very comfortable. Area around the cabin was very spacious and we had plenty of room for the kids to run around. Walkabout also had numerous things that anyone can use, including an arcade, to keep us busy no matter the weather. The only downside was not being able to drive up to the cabin, however they did provide a wagon they we could use to take trips back and forth. Would highly recommend and would stay here again!

What a great camp! Carl is very personable, the grounds are beautiful, it’s very secluded (ie; off the beaten path). The camp has a common area to hang out and cook or bonfire or play games. There is also a full ~on grid~ bathroom with a shower and that’s attached to a small game room with a tv and air hockey (if you absolutely feel the need to stay connected). A really peaceful getaway but only about an hour drive to Marietta to the SW, Granville to the NE & Hocking Hills to the south. My sister and I tent/car camped here for 4 nights and 5 days and really hated to leave. 😊

Peaceful, lots of birds and deer, and you can hear the peepers at night. We had a great time!

Bear Cabin
Owner was very kind and inviting when we arrived on site. He also gave us clear directions to get there when the GPS would not. There was plenty of space between campsites and the other campers seemed very respectful. I overall enjoyed my stay

Carl was an amazing host. The cabin was a perfect size for me and my girlfriend with room to host more. It is clear that much effort has gone into making this site welcoming to all. The cabin and bathroom were very clean and anything needed was provided. Additionally Carl was very flexible with our arrival time and even helped us get moved in late at night.

Nice clean place. Carl received me very well and was well informed. The WIFI is very good. P.S. Don't always rely on Google Map, arrive via route 60 south of Duncan Falls, it will be easier, ask Carl.

I loved camping At bear cabin, it was one of the most peaceful experiences. It’s so quiet and private. It feels like you’re all alone. It really feels like a cabin in the woods and it’s so nice to have an indoor bathroom and shower. Overall, this is amazing espically for the price! I would recommend this to all of my friends and I already have :) The host was very helpful, He even has fishing and farm animals to see! This would be a great weekend trip even for somebody who is a local. Loved it!! So clean and nice.

Carl and company were very communicative and hospitable! They made sure we felt right at home. Secluded campground with some good amenities! We were there during a heatwave so it wasn’t too crowded, but I imagine it can become pretty social there when busy.

My best friend and I tent camped one night here and we will be back again! Carl upgraded us to a better site when we arrived and took us right to our spot. He showed us around and chopped wood for us, too. We stayed up far too late catching up and gazing at the stars, but that was not a bad thing. Highly recommend!

Wolf Cabin
The host was super helpful! Anything you forgot he could either supply or recommend a place to go get it. He also had a website with links of all the local places and attractions. He's working hard on building the campsite up. It will be interesting to see how it changes over the next 10 years.

Site 8 - WALKAbOUT Creek Primitive
My kids and I live in NY and we’re city people so we were extremely out of our comfort zone in the country side of Ohio! But as soon as we got there Carl was nice and friendly that we felt safe right away. The kids enjoyed the game room that was on the property. It was a very pleasant stay!

We found this place on Hipcamp a few years ago, and have come back time and again. It’s clean and secluded. The property is beautiful, and the owner Carl continues to make improvements with each visit. We really do love it here.

We love Carl. He was great with communication, helped us feel comfortable, went out last minute and bought a propane tank just so we could use his blacktop grill. Told us no one else was staying be as loud as we want. Hooked us up with free wood, showed us how to connect to his surround sound at the community pavilion. And best of all helped us pull off a grand prank on my brother!
Carl is the best, we will for sure be back my friend, you are great.

The campground, while a bit off the beaten path, was awesome. The grounds were very clean and the area around it was very scenic! So quiet and peaceful!

It was the perfect, secluded spot that exceeded our expectations. When we were there, there was only one other group at the site. Carl was a great host, and made sure we knew where everything was and that we had what we needed. Not only were the spots open and flat, there was a bathroom, shower, AND wifi at the camp! We were only there one night as were travelled home, but it was a great quiet campground to help us recharge before the final leg of the journey. Definitely worth the visit.

Walkabout Creek is very quiet, the cabins are private, on a large treed lot with water running through. The cabin has many amenities, we really appreciated the coffee maker and the bedding supplied. The Wi-Fi in the cabin is terrific. Carl is very helpful and will share knowledge, chairs and provide whatever you need. The camp cat is a snuggler.

WALKAbOUT Creek Electric
The private location was great, the welcome staff was warm and informative, and we really appreciated Carl coming by to personally welcome us. We also appreciated the flexibility to move to another space that had shade! Can't give it a "great" rating however -- we wish the bathroom was 1. labelled (we had trouble finding it!) --even a simple sign would suffice and 2. VENTILATED and ideally, air-conditioned. It was SO hot and stuffy and humid inside, it made the shower feel almost worthless.

We love it here! This is our second time staying at Walkabout, and the kids had a great time. We stayed in a cabin that was well maintained and secluded but still close to restrooms and the shelter house. The land is beautiful and quiet, and it was easy to visit the state park nearby.

Really enjoyed camping at WalkAbout Creek. The cabinet was very cozy, but had plenty of room for everything. It was quiet and secluded. Carl is very kind and accommodating. Wifi, air conditioning, ceiling fan, and the bathroom with a shower are really great features. Enjoyed fishing in the pond.
I would definitely go back!
