Nestled between the Great Lakes and the Appalachian Mountains, Ohio offers a plethora of unforgettable outdoor experiences. Beautiful Lake Erie beaches give way to caves, escarpments, and waterfalls, so if you’re looking to go camping in Ohio, you’re bound to find the perfect spot! 


Starting in the northern tip of the state, bordering Lake Erie, campers will find serene beaches and natural coves full of picturesque summertime fun. Kelley’s Island State Park, a 677-acre park on the northern tip of the island, offers campers year-round adventure. Unique natural history and geographical features make Kelley’s Island an excellent choice for camping in Ohio’s unique Great Lake region. 


East Harbor State Park, another camper’s haven along the shores of Lake Erie, offers opportunities for boating, fishing, 10 miles of hiking trails, and three boat ramps make this amazing campground the perfect spot for avid outdoorsmen and family campers alike. 


South of Lake Erie, near the border of West Virginia, campers will find Ohio’s famous Hocking Hills area. Stunning cliffs and waterfalls, deep hemlock forests, and world-famous caves make this area one of the most popular for year-round camping in Ohio. The most well known cave in the Hocking Hills is Old Man’s Cave, so named for hermit Richard Rowe who lived in the cave for 30 years after settling in the area around 1800. The Old Man’s Cave area provides trails along a breath-taking gorge, which was carved 150 feet into the sandstone by the waters of Old Man’s Creek.


Campgrounds located in the Hocking Hills and Old Man’s Cave areas provide unique opportunities for waterfall hikes, climbing, and canoeing along the Hocking River. The geologically unique Hocking Hills region offers up some of the most beautiful natural beauty in the state and the country.


From pristine Great Lake beaches to the rugged beauty of the Appalachians, let The Dyrt help you find the best camping in Ohio!

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!

Escape the chaos of everyday life and discover a relaxing getaway close to the river! Our campsite is located on just over five acres of land. The front of the property overlooks the Muskingum River and the larger back portion is wooded. There are neighbors, but plenty of space. There  is also plenty of room to investigate the scenic woods and search for wild critters.

Please note: There is an empty trailer about 100 yards away that will be removed within the coming months. 

The Space:
Relax under the stars and adventure on the river!

Guest Access:
This is an exclusive Tentrr Signature campsite. Tentrr partners with farmers, ranchers, and other property owners to offer unique outdoor accommodations on beautiful private land. Our campsites are off-the-grid which means they generally do not have access to electricity, wifi, or modern plumbing. Instead, they offer the chance to relax, unplug, and fully experience nature! You'll have the entire campsite to yourself, as you'll be the only Campers enjoying this piece of paradise.

Each campsite includes a 10'x12' safari-style canvas tent on a raised platform, and you'll find one queen bed or a queen-size bunk bed inside (each site is different, see photos for the exact setup). Larger groups can also use the extra 5-person pop-up dome tent that___s provided (you___re welcome to bring your own camping gear too). You'll also have a 6-ft picnic table, outdoor fire pit, 2 Tentrr Adirondack chairs, and a heating source to keep you warm and toasty at night. 

What you should bring:
-S'mores supplies & any food you'd like to eat
-A cooler to keep your grub from spoiling 
-Bedding and pillows
-Lanterns and lighting 
-Firewood for the campfire
-Water

Upon check out, you should leave-no-trace of your stay and be sure your campsite is returned to its natural glory! While Tentrr does not charge a cleaning fee, we do expect campsites to be left how they were found. After you check out, take everything you brought in and be sure to leave your trash at the designated location on the property. 

If a CampKeeper submits an incident report after your stay that details evidence of trash or damage to the campsite or the CampKeeper___s property, Tentrr reserves the right to charge a minimum cleaning fee of $50. Just make sure to follow the Camper Manual posted at your campsite and you'll be set!

Occupancy: Max occupancy refers to the total number of campers allowed at the site during your reservation. 

Toilets: Every campsite is equipped with a camp toilet (we call it the Tentrr Loo). This is a simple wooden box with a toilet seat and a bucket inside. Line the bucket with a CleanWaste bag supplied at the camp (or another appropriate plastic bag) prior to use. Afterwards, simply tie the bag up and place it in a trash bag. We got this idea from bathrooms used on NASA spaceships, and we've used the Tentrr Loo countless times ourselves- don't worry!

Showers: Every Signature campsite comes with a Coleman Sun Shower. The sun shower has a reservoir that holds up to 5 gallons of water, potentially enough for multiple showers. It's constructed of heat-locking material that warms the water when it's left in the sun, even on cool days.

Reservation Modifications/Cancellations: Please note the terms of the cancelation policy as they are outlined in your reservation confirmation on Airbnb.

If you have any questions regarding your reservation, Tentrr Customer Support can be reached at (888) 798-9093 or at hello@tentrr.com.

Other Things to Note:
At this time, Muskingum River Glamping would like to encourage guests to use extreme caution when getting close to the river. While the property is secure, to view the river, guests would have to cross a highway and scale down less than desirable terrain. However, the river can be heard from the campsite and the stars are often easy to view. 

Campers with pets should be cautious of the neighbor's dog. She is harmless and missing one leg but might attract pets to follow her into more dangerous situations.
