Philip's campsite is a fantastic choice for those seeking tranquility and a bit of adventure. Visitors appreciate the well-maintained grounds, access to water and electricity, and thoughtful extras like complimentary firewood and axe throwing. The site is praised for its peaceful setting, with many enjoying the nearby hiking trails and the convenience of being close to local attractions like Serpent Mound. However, some guests note that the proximity to the road may be a consideration for those sensitive to noise, and the orientation of the fire ring could be improved for easier access from larger trailers.

Great tent camping spot and fun extra activities like throwing axes and basketball hoop for some things to do around camp! Complimentary firewood was awesome too for roasting some sausages!

This spot was great! Very well kept and clean. Not far off the road but not a busy road so noise was a non using. Already booked to stay here again!

If solitude is what you’re looking for, this is certainly a good option. Flat parking spot, running water, electrical hookup, fire ring and lots of tree cover.

Close to serpent mound
We stayed for a few days and enjoyed the quiet solitude! The entrance is at the top of a hill, so unlatching the gate left us in the road for a few minutes. As long as you're quick, and / or no cars coming, it's fine. We stayed in site #2, our 26' trailer and 8' truck both fit snuggly, although we may have left some ruts in the grass pulling in and out.

Great campsite
Another great trip. Camp site is great and close to all the public hunting areas around. It’s quiet and you can’t beat the price and location and having water and electric. Just know if you have a longer trailer it’ll be a little tough to get backed in due to the angle of the spot. Will be back next year

Loved This Campsite!
The campsite was perfect! Well mowed, nice location, close to Serpent Mound (the reason for our visit). Electricity and water included with the site. Nice hiking trails, plenty of space to explore. There was even an axe throwing setup. Philip, the owner stopped by one day. He was very nice and gave us some additional information about the area, Thank you for a wonderful camping experience!

Very well kept and a generous amount of firewood. Great place to watch the sunset. Having access to water was a bonus.

Great spot! Lots of cool trails and a field next to the spot. Seems like you'll be alone but also not too far away from Peebles. Water and electric was still nice to have while tent camping.

I didn’t actually stay here (plans changed) but Philip was proactive around communication and helpful around the changing plans. I can’t speak to the campground itself but Philip was great.

Great location and site
Campsite was awesome especially for the price. The location was perfect for hunting tranquility wildlife area. Response times were quick to any messages. If you’re in campsite 2 and have a longer trailer (30’ ish) just be aware it’ll be a little tricky to get parked with how the site is oriented. Also the fire ring is on the left side of the campsite and all doors are on the right for campers, so would be nice to move it to other side if possible. But overall great experience will be back next year.

This site is the perfect getaway if you want privacy and peace. Tranquility acres couldn’t be named more appropriately. Everything was mowed and clean as a whistle. We loved the basketball hoop and the soccer hoop and a little hike down to the spring was fantastic if we’re ever in this area, we will definitely come back kudos to Philip, for making it such a Pleasant Place!

We camped over the 4th of July and had a great time. this place has everything you could want. We enjoyed going through the meadows looking at all the milkweed and butterflies. We definitely plan to come back and would recommend to others looking for a peaceful place to camp

Nice Campsite!
Tranquility Spring Campground was a nice, place for a stopover. Both sites are very spacious. It was awesome to have water right nearby! (electric there also, but didn’t use)
The address was hidden and I had to backtrack to find the place. There was a very nice fire pit (not close to camp, but that was okay) and firewood provided. Philip was a very nice host.

Outstanding!!! We will be back soo
Absolutely outstanding!! Dead Quiet, clean and beautiful spot. We parked our 16’ pop up camper there with tons of room all around. The trails were fantastic throughout the property. The tick problem in Ohio is real so make sure you check yourself and pets every time you hike. We found a few while we were there. Tranquility wildlife area is right across the road but DO NOT hike there without a map and compass or GPS. It’s very rough but beautiful. We’re already planning our next couple of trips there.

Such a beautiful and peaceful spot - we wish we could have stayed much longer. Perfect setup, with fun amenities like throwing axes and a big target. Will definitely stay again if we're in the area.

We had such a great time here over Memorial Day weekend! We had the whole place to ourselves and took advantage of the trails all over the land. The site was perfect for our teardrop and a small tent, but would have accommodated a far larger rig. We loved that there was plenty of dry firewood, a basketball hoop, and an axe throwing game set up! While we could technically see Site #1, it was far enough away that had it been booked, it wouldn't have bothered us in the least. Thanks for a great place to stay!

Very private even though your just a couple hundred feet from a county road, it was still very secluded. Easy to back in and hook up. Dog's loved the trails.
We'll be coming back.

Beautiful spot near Serpent Mound!
I had a great experience tent camping for 2 nights on Phil’s beautiful property! I was even fortunate enough to meet my host, who doesn’t live on the site but was doing tree maintenance the weekend I was there, so I got to learn a bit about his family’s long history in the area. Site #2 had a nice flat, shady spot for my tent, right between the gravel parking area and the fire ring. The electric outlet is designed for a different type of plug than a normal 120-volt wall outlet — probably whatever large campers use — but Phil had a spare plug converter he loaned me so I could inflate my mattress and charge my phone! I enjoyed a great morning hike around the hillsides before heading to Serpent Mound, and the day I left I was delighted to hear the early morning gobbles of the wild turkeys that live on the property. Be aware that the campsites are fairly close to the road, so you do hear some traffic sounds if you’re in a tent, but otherwise it feels pretty remote and disconnected from the real world! I will definitely be back the next time I’m headed out that way.

It was very peaceful and there's alot land to explore. It's 13 minutes from The Serpent Mound, so that is a major plus. We got to meet "P.J.'s" dad who was checking on a wood tract elsewhere on the property. We could have listened to his stories for hours. He seemed like a very kind person that loves his family. The precut firewood on-site was very nice and convenient. There are some pretty cool hidden gems in the trails. The utilities where clean, up to date, and working perfectly. We will definitely camp here again in the future. The only suggestion I could make would be to add another site or 2 deeper into the woods so more people can enjoy this beautiful property.
