Permaculture Paradise

This place was so peaceful! The site was perfect for our tent. The water and firewood provided was a really nice touch. Will definitely be back next year!

Fern Hollow Farm is an absolute dream. The space was clean and well-kept. The hosts were very easy to communicate with and so so sweet. We can't wait to go back!

We had a workshop at the Dawes Arboretum. I was looking forr nearby camping options for a mushroom foray, and most of the typical campsites lookes dated and not super inviting. when looking for other options I came across hipcamp. I had heard of the site before but this was my first time using it. There were several sites within 30 minutes drive of Dawes arboretum, but this Permaculture farm looked like the best option. The campsite is at the bottom of a gravel road with a cornfield on one side and a couple houses on the other, As soon as we pulled up we ran into Eric. He was making sure we had wood even before we got there, and was super friendly when we met. The property has three unique campsites. One is completely in the woods, another is at the base of the hill surrounded by trees in a clearing, and the last one is at the top of the hill on the property overlooking the farm. When you drive into the farm you’ll notice a charming stage where they host some events and a really beautiful space. You’ll immediately notice all the work they put into creating a sustainable and gorgeous environment! I look forward to coming back here sometime next summer and seeing everything in full bloom. They have a good chunk of woods to explore, and are surrounded by farmlands. The old town of Somerset is a short 5 to 10 minute drive and will have a grocery store, several restaurants, and a place to get provisions. It seems they are growing a variety of fruits, different vegetables, and even‘s cultivating some shitake mushrooms in the forest! If you’re in the area and want a really amazing place to camp, with great energy and good people, this site is definitely for you!

This is a lovely spot! It’s a large private area, surrounded by trees, w expansive views of hills and fields, at the end of a quiet driveway. The hosts Eric and Olivia are very sweet and extremely helpful. It’s about 45-50 min from Hocking Hills and a good spot to base your adventures out of. The camping area is huge with lots and lots of space to spread out! We used the picnic table and fire pit and had a lovely time. They have an area close by that has a stage and a vegetable and fruit farm that they are developing bit by bit. There are hiking trails on property as well. We had the most beautiful and relaxing weekend. Thank you guys!!!

Had a wonderful stay at Fern Hollow, Olive and Eric were awesome and went out of their way to ensure that we were comfortable. The property was clean, secluded and beautiful. Will definitely be visiting again.

Great site, great hosts

Olivia was a kind and gracious host. My plans were delayed by traffic and I arrived at dusk in the rain. Without complaint she meet me in the rain, showed be around, and got water for me to use. She even helped set up my tent, with a smile!

It was a beautiful site and look forward to returning in the future when I have more time to enjoy the property.

The Fern Hollow Farm was perfect in every way! Olivia and Erik have built a little oasis that was hard to leave. We most definitely will be back!

Beautiful little spot at a teaching farm. Great getaway, and a quick escape from Columbus. Great place to just reset and listen to the birds.
