    Exceptional campsite (Paw Paw Grove) and host! Very private/quiet and many amenities were included that I did not expect including dry firewood, propane camping stove, handwashing stations, paper towels and camping tableware. I will definitely be back. Thanks Rhonda!

    Great spot to stay! Rhonda is a great host, the space is well kept, and it’s close to Hocking Hills State Park.

    We loved camping at Rhonda's spot. Rhonda was friendly and the directions she gave were clear and helpful. The site was pretty close to Hocking Hills so it made venturing out for the day easy. We will be back next year for sure.

    Loved the peace and tranquility of Rhonda’s yurt and the land around it. Great open space for the pups, it rained on and off all weekend and we still were able to relax and have a good time. It was a well stocked with a camp box, bedding, grill, water, light, firewood, and more! We will be back.

    Host was friendly. But this is not the place to ride your full dresser motorcycle to. Road is steep an gravel is loose.
