Woody is our peaceful hilltop home nestled amongst the scenic hills in southeast Ohio between Hocking Hills State Park and Zaleski State Forest. Enjoy staying on a hilltop meadow filled with a mix of wildflowers and song birds. The meadow is surrounded by a tall mixed hardwood forest where campers are free to walk the mowed path through the woods. Come nightfall, you will be graced with some of the darkest skies in the state of Ohio. On a clear moonless night, the milky way galaxy comes into view and shooting stars are not an uncommon site. If you're lucky, our friendly black cat will grace you with his presence, he's a legend and likes to snuggle:) We offer a variety of accommodations depending on the type of adventure you are seeking. Choose between staying in the off grid school bus tiny home, the 20 foot "glamper" with outdoor kitchen, the Hickory Hut which offers more "creature comforts" or simply pitch a tent or park a smaller camper in the open meadow campsite for a night of stargazing. Woody is located within 25 minutes of many of the areas attractions: 15 minutes to Ash Cave 20 minutes to Cedar Falls 25 minutes to Old Man's Cave 20 minutes to Lake Hope 10 minutes to McArthur 25 minutes to Logan Here at Woody we honor our place in the natural world and are humbled by the beauty that surrounds us. We see ourselves as a part of nature and work towards having a deeper connection with the earth and our place in it by applying caretaker attitude and careful technological use and observation. Our mission is to leave bounty in our wake. If you would like to dive deeper into your own connection with nature, consider going on a nature walk with Austin during your stay. Check it out in the add-ons. We would love for you to come stay with us and be a part of a healing landscape where you can disconnect from your day to day, reconnect with nature and experience the Woody Acres magic. Hope to see you soon! Austin and Kate

Hickory Hut
We had an amazing stay at Woody Acres. We stayed in the Hickory Hut while our friends stayed in the Peppermint Patty Wagon, and both accommodations were thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed. From comfortable bedding and extra linens to cooking supplies, serving ware, and other little incidentals, it was clear the hosts put a lot of care into anticipating guests' needs. The property is absolutely beautiful and truly feels like an immersive nature retreat. The nature-inspired décor is intentionally curated, with so many personal touches that make each space feel warm and unique. We also appreciated that Woody Acres is dog-friendly, making it easy to bring our pups along for the adventure. Kate and Austin were wonderful hosts—kind, communicative, and available whenever we needed them while still giving guests plenty of privacy. One of the highlights of our trip was joining them for a plant identification walk. It was incredibly informative, engaging, and gave us an even greater appreciation for the property and the surrounding landscape. The mowed walking trails throughout the property were perfect for exploring, and the beautifully landscaped sites offer plenty of privacy between campers. The outdoor composting toilet and shower were both very clean and only a short walk from our hut. We also loved how close Woody Acres is to the Hocking Hills attractions, making it easy to enjoy the area's hiking options.

Awesome hipcamp! Location was super easy to find— maps took us right to the well-marked campsites. The Hickory Hut was adorable and well stocked with camping essentials should anyone forget to bring along matches, bug spray, etc. The outdoor shower and toilet were both clean and functional, and both were only a very short walk from the cabin. AC works well, and even on a toasty night the cabin stayed nice and cool in the evening. Thank you Kate and Austin (and Rubeus!) for a great stay! Also, check out the pond if you have time. I braved a refreshing dip— highlight of the stay!

Slice of Heaven at Woodys
Bus Campsite
Everything here is magical. We stayed in the peppermint wagon and two days was not enough. July 4th weekend Temps were 95 but we found shade under the outdoor kitchen. And the trails were pleasantly cool under the trees. At night a little fan provided and the windows open kept it at a comfortable temperature. We loved the outdoor shower! And the Privy is stocked and clean. We really enjoyed our campfire visits from Austin. He really made you feel welcomed on his property. We are coming back next month and bringing our mother. She's going to love it just as much as we did! So close to all the hocking hills trails. We never ran out of things to do! It was fun to hike a trail, come back to camp and cook lunch and then head back out to our next trail. Thank you Austin and Kate for sharing your beautiful land with us. Can't wait for the next trip out there!!!. Would love to rent every spot and bring the entire family sometime !

Great off-grid place to stay. I enjoyed the site's fireplace, and it is close to the outdoor shower. The host, Austin, and Kate were wonderful, and as someone who enjoys primitive camping, I really appreciated how the camper was used off-grid.

Amazing Stargazing

Stargazer Campsite
My husband and I loved tenting on Kate's land! It was a little bit of a walk for the outdoor privy and shower but we didn't mind at all. There were other people at other sites but we rarely saw them as the tall grass and flowers around our campsite gave us a surprising amount of privacy. The stargazing was exceptional, especially because we could see the Milky Way! Also enjoyed talking with Kate and Austin who were so knowledgeable and friendly. Definitely would stay here again.

Woody Acres truly is a magical place. There is so much to do, and even though we faced lots of rain while we were there, time seemed to not exist while we were with our friends and Austin and Kate under the shelter that Austin built with the camper. We also enjoyed a fun plant walk with Austin and a dip in the pond! It's always very hard for us to leave because we love it there so much. The land is beautiful. The hospitality is truly unmatched. We can't wait to be back. 💗
