Weekend Trip to The Viking Longhall

Amazing spot! David was super nice and hosts a very fun complex. A real treat and one of my favorite stays yet. He also recommended Quiver Heart Trail nearby which was a beautiful hike.

3 nights at Quiet Creek Valley

We had a great time camping here! Very nice, very private but not too far from town. You can hear the train every now and then but not enough to bother us. We loved swimming and fishing the creek, and we would definitely stay here again!

Weekend Trip to The Viking Longhall

Highly recommend if you’re looking for a magical place to reconnect with nature but still sleep in a bed. The creekside cabin was very clean and cozy! David and Ivea were incredibly kind and accommodating. The place is clean, artistically beautiful, and honestly just felt magical.

3 nights at Quiet Creek Valley

I can’t say enough good about the whole experience!! The hosts were awsome people!! So happy they’ve opened their land up to share with others! It was a beautiful experience all the way around! They went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed to make our stay as easy, fun and comfortable as possible in return we added a few amenities to our campsite lol built some steps to get safely down to the creek, which was amazing and a nice fire pit to share We will definitely be going back one of my very favorite places ever. !!

Weekend Trip to The Viking Longhall

Fantastic asthetics. Beautifully done and maintained. Hosts were very hospitable and knowledgable of the area. The yurt was very comfy and inviting. First time in a yurt and it was a blast. Hosts went above and beyond by providing a battery unit for my CPAP machine.

2 nights at Cabin and Tent Camping On The River

Beautiful property right on the river. Hunter was very helpful and nice. Would recommend.

3 nights at Fruitdale Farm

Second stay and would still 100% recommend David’s place! So grateful for the nature, birds, stars, love, fun and beauty! There’s nothing better than hearing a babbling brook, bird songs and a crackling fire all at once :) perfect hosts all around!

Weekend Trip to Tranquility Spring Campground

Very beautiful and peaceful spot. Everything was very well maintained and really nice. Couldn’t ask for a better spot.

Weekend Trip to Quiet Creek Valley

We so enjoyed our stay on the river at site 4 on Martha’s land with our 8 year old and 2 dogs. The site is so perfectly secluded. Dave made sure we had plenty of firewood and even provided an inner tube for us to enjoy on the river. We will definitely be back.

1 night at Home Afarm

It was secluded, comfy, and clean with a great view on the porch. Would def stay again

1 night at Little Darby Outdoors

Great shower and rr facilities. Shade near building and from trees away from the main building.

1 night at Little Darby Outdoors

Jay’s place was welcoming and a peaceful piece of land. Great restroom, shower and kitchenette. Jay and Cocoa were very nice company. I would certainly stay again.

2 nights at Little Darby Outdoors

The stay was outstanding! The host met me when I got there and showed me where I needed to park and the rest of the trip was just very relaxing and secluded

2 nights at Fruitdale Farm

Folks, book it! Fruitdale Farms is the ideal spot for tent camping or enjoying quiet nights in one of their wonderful cabins on the property. There's solid trails, a refreshing pond to take a dip, a beautiful stream, along with plenty of shade in the woods. You will be kindly welcomed. It's an 11 outta 10!

1 night at Quiet Creek Valley

Dave was very nice and showed me to my spot as well as directing me on where to go if I wanted to explore the property. I stayed at campsite 1 and it was perfect for car camping. Like other reviews said, if you want direct water access it would be best to stay at site 2 or 3. Would love to come here again!

Weekend Trip to Tranquility Spring Campground

Great private site right next to a field - the stars were amazing at night! While it's somewhat close to a road, there was very little traffic during the day and none at night. Host supplied electric, water, and firewood - couldn't ask for much else!

Weekend Trip to Ohio River experience

Great location, we enjoyed our stay and we are returning in August. Polly is a great host

Weekend Trip to Quiet Creek Valley

I loved spending a weekend tent camping at this little piece of heaven only an hour from downtown Cincinnati! There was so much green and wildflowers along the campsites, along with the night sky being so clear due to being away from most light pollution. My dog was happy to be off leash and by the water! Martha took time to show me around when I arrived, along with her husband checking in towards the end of the day. I felt very safe and welcomed! I look forward to another trip soon ☀️ Very helpful and responsive hosts!!

Weekend Trip to Arnold Acres

The pretty spot was amazing full coverage from other people great scenery. The caretaker was very kind offered us a lot of wood and even invited us back. We loved our weekend there and can't wait to go back

The Viking Longhall

10 sites · Lodging, Tents5 acres · Peebles, OH

The Viking longhall has been 9 years in the making by a group of semi serious Viking enthusiasts: the result is a 60 foot long building that has 18, 8,x4' sleeping berths. Set apart from the main open area it also boasts 2 meeting rooms and a kitchen. The campsite is a very peaceful place. Some go as far as to say a healing place! We are proud of what we have achieved and now want people to come out and enjoy it also. The field is close enough to the Appalachian highway (state route 32) for convenience, but far enough not to be bothered by it. The area is steeped in Native American culture. In fact, the world famous Serpent Mound is but 8 miles away, with many other Adena culture sites within easy driving distance. It's also in the heart of the Amish community. The area is known for its natural beauty with many hiking trails and canoeing opportunities. The area is awash in beauty and history from the ancient mound culture to the amish culture. The area has many hiking trails some of which are part of the buckeye trail and range in length from an easy 1 mile loop to rugged hikes of many miles. Come out and share the land that we have loved for the last 30 years PLEASE NOTE….WE WILL NO LONGER BE SUPPLYING BEDDING OR TOWELS.
