Weekend Trip to Fruitdale Farm

I loved staying at the Cedar Sanctuary site! This place is absolutely magical, I will be back!

2 nights at The Viking Longhall

We tent camped on this beautiful creekside, viking-themed respite and were quite comfortable even within rain and heat. There are plenty of trees for shade and dipping our feet in the creek to cool off was a delight. David, our host, was warm, welcoming, gracious and friendly. We stayed there while visiting Serpent Mound which is very close-by. We cannot wait to return. We truly felt so refreshed. There's something magical about hearing that creek at night.

3 nights at Fruitdale Farm

What a beautiful farm to camp at! My 8 year old daughter and I had such a lovely time in the A Frame exploring the wildlife trails, hanging out with the koi fish, the chickens and Aimee! Everything is so well thought out and obviously a lot of care has gone into this property, it’s absolutely magical, we can’t wait to return!

1 night at Hilltop Resorts and Campgrounds

Beautiful views. Glamping tents are neat but very hot in the summer. Our tent was in full sun all day and evening. The one fan didn’t help at all. It cooled off a bit once the sun went down. Plenty of games for the kiddos. Showers were nice and clean but quite a walk from the canvas tents. The showers need a shelf for soap and such. Hosts were great.

3 nights at Nature's Way

Really enjoyed our stay. Jim is hospitable we hung out and listened to him and his friend play music in the evenings. Great place to hike.

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.

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.

Weekend Trip to Triple D Retreat

If you’re looking for a quite place to relax With lots of fun things to do locally you will definitely want to check this place out. Lots of space for a couple or large group. The shelter is great along with a picnic table Fire Ring and a pit toilet. We will be back.

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.

4 nights at EJT Retreat

The drive up to the cabin was a bit tricky. I was a little worried the first time up the hill in the car. But let me tell you, once we were up the hill, it was our little place of solitude for the week. The pond was my daughter’s favorite! So many frog and toad sounds at night. So fun. Fire pit and hot tub were also a huge bonus. The bed was very nice, we didn’t attempt to raise it at all; we just left it for our trip but it was the perfect little cabin for us. Esther was extremely attentive with anything I needed during our stay or any questions I had. Brent even surprised us with some fire wood one day. They were very thoughtful! We would absolutely stay again!

3 nights at Fruitdale Farm

Me and my boyfriend had a blast at fruitdale farm...the peace and quiet and listening to the wildlife was amazing...not to mention watching the stars and just relaxing. Thank you Amiee for the stay

2 nights at Nature's Way

We absolutely loved camping here! Fern rock is absolutely gorgeous and the perfect view for camping. The creek was also super gorgeous with a small cascading waterfall. We had a lovely fire and hammocked in the trees. There were so many fireflies from about 8-11pm that were the highlight of our stay. The way they lit up the rock was incredible. The winery was closed while we visited but there were a few others close by we were able to go to! Jim was an amazing host and was very responsive over texts. He has an absolutely gorgeous property and I highly recommend staying here if you visit hocking hills!

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 Nature's Way

We enjoyed the Fern Valley site even though it rained every evening! It was private, secluded and quiet. Level sites made setup easy.

Weekend Trip to Triple D Retreat

My girlfriend and I absolutely loved tent camping on Frank’s property. The covered shelter was such a blessing as well. We will be back for sure. Thank you, Frank. 🥰

Weekend Trip to Hilltop Resorts and Campgrounds

Weekend Trip to Benton's on the Baileys

We had a great time camping at Benton on the Bailey's. It was right near a dirt road but there was minimal traffic and was not an issue. The campsite is within riding distance from a couple mtb trailhead, which made it a nice spot. All accommodations were clean and nicely maintained.

Weekend Trip to Fruitdale Farm

We had an excellent time! Even though it rained a lot, the property is gorgeous and our site (site 2) is situated in a great spot with lots of privacy. Highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to EJT Retreat

We took a mother/daughter trip for our stay. We had the most amazing time! The pond for swimming is perfect with the deck to hang out and cool off during the hot day. At night we got in the hot tub and had a nice fire for s'more. The cabin was cozy and perfect for the 4 of us. They provided so many extra items like camping chairs, towels fire starters, bug spray, sunblock, and many more things. The drive way was a little crazy getting up in my mini van but with a running start it was fine. We was laughing so much about the adventure of getting up it. I would definitely want to drive my truck with 4 wheel drive in the winter to get to it. We are planning our next trip already to go back. We will also be taking our kids there for a weekend adventure. Thank you all so much for a great place to stay and make memories!

Weekend Trip to Fruitdale Farm

Beautiful property with trails. Several sites to meet whatever your needs are. We're already planning a stay in the fall.

The Viking Longhall

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.
