Deer Creek Camping Resort

Art & nature-focused, vegan inspired dwellings and campsites built on our 58-acre Hocking Hills property. All built by Sculptdecor, custom art!

3 PRIMITIVE CAMPING Sites & UPSCALE Tiny Home GLAMPING available. Endangered species present, working with environmental specialists to establish/follow a plan to protect life on the property.

RV/Trailer/ Camper camping allowed at two of our three Primitive Campsites. That is Primitive Camp PEACE and Primitive Camp SHROOM. We can accomodate RVs/Trailers/Campers up to 20 feet maximun in length.

But we do NOT have electric/sewage/and water hookup so this means dry camping/boondocking.

PLEASE NOTE: domestic animals such as cats and dogs are allowed at our 3 primitive campsites, but we require them to be tied out or on a leash to protect wildlife. Tangle free tieouts are installed at all 3 Primitive Campsites.

BUT our Pollinator Tiny Home Treehouse Glamping Site is NOT built to accommodate these domestic animal friends due to all the custom artwork within the space. We will have more rentals that DO accommodate domestic animal friends such as cats and dogs, in the future. Building these options ASAP. As artists, we strive to create a high quality, unique enviroment within or at all of our spaces.

We DISLIKE that our Pollinator Tiny Home DOES NOT accommodate these domestic animal friends so we are making sure we design some of our other spaces to properly accommodate domestic animal friends because these domestic animal friends are really FAMILY!
