Hilltop Hideaway
We spent a long weekend at the Hilltop Hideaway and had a peaceful and relaxing time. We have a smaller fifth-wheel, and thanks to the recently cut hay field, we were able to make it down the hill. The first turn on the driveway was a little tricky due to the incline, but raising the ball on our Anderson hitch made leaving easier.
The area near the pond was unlevel—if you’re planning to camp there, be ready to feel like you're setting up on the side of a mountain! We ended up finding a better spot a bit farther away but still down the hill. The water in the pond was very low, likely because of the ongoing drought.
We read about frogs with megaphones in other reviews, but apparently, they had the night off during our stay because it was nice and quiet. No barking dogs or traffic noise—just the peaceful sounds of nature.
The site was a little overgrown, and the fire pit was made from an old tire rim, which was small but did the job. We saw some cows and two badgers near the pond, which was a fun surprise. We didn’t use the outhouse, but having that option was good.
One highlight was visiting the Meigs County Farmers Market by the river, where we picked up delicious breads and wagyu steaks. The clear skies and zero light pollution made for perfect stargazing at night.
Overall, we had a good, quiet stay. If you plan to camp right by the water, be prepared for uneven ground near the pond.

had a great time staying here. It’s a very private pond and pavilion. These along with the visibility of the stars with no light pollution were great scenery.
We laughed about another reviews frogs having megaphones comment the entire stay

Great spot
Easy to find. Remote. Isolated. No road noise at night. Cows friendly. Couple of the frogs in the pond have megaphones. Would do again.

Overall we had a great experience. The covered dock and pond are beautiful, and the outhouse being on the campsite is very easy to access. Unfortunately, we paid for firewood and only had plywood and some very large pieces of wood, and the green area is on a slant so setting the tent up on a flat surface was nearly impossible. I would visit again if I had the opportunity to come in a small RV. Another high note, though, was the sounds of nature all day and night, as well as the stunning view of the night sky. The pond ecosystem was thriving and we sat and just watched the critters existing for hours. Very serene, incredibly private, just bring bug spray.

Beautiful area. Very peaceful. However, I did ask the host if there would be cell service before I booked and replied yes. And of course, I did not. So maybe it’s only certain carriers. Normally, I wouldn’t mind this at all but I needed to download some maps before heading out for a backpack trip the following morning and those were important so I was a little bummed there. Also, and I hate to complain because these aren’t deal breakers by any means, but I added the $5 charge for a bundle of wood. And he sent a message that there should be some fire would there and if I needed any help to let him know. So I didn’t need to pay extra for it if it was already there. Well there wasn’t like a fresh bundle there and all the wood that was there was really wet and since I didn’t have service, I couldn’t exactly ask for fresh wood even though I paid for it. Not too big of deal but I shouldn’t have paid the extra $5 and luckily I had some in my car anyways. All in all beautiful place and I would definitely come back again.
