Loggers Creekside Retreat

Wonderfully quiet camping!

What a wonderful experience! Host Keith was incredibly accommodating with my last minute site change- I asked to move to the more secluded site on the ridge instead of the loggers retreat near the road. He was so very patient with shuttling our luggage to the site, delivering wood, and seemed genuinely happy for us to be there. A beautiful and clean shower and bathroom, with nice hot water. The ridge site was quiet, clean and secluded. 10/10 would recommend, and I look forward to booking this site again!

Loggers Creekside Retreat

Not a place we would recommend

We were disappointed in the quality of the site. It was located immediately adjacent to the road and was more similar to a logging drop off location with large logs and deep wheel marks throughout the location. The pictures provided on the website did not represent the location fairly. As we were tent camping, these conditions made it difficult to find a flat location for our small tent and being next to the road, there was little privacy and road noise. Additionally, the advertised toilet facilities were unusable due to no water. The person meant to greet us and show us to our campsite was not present throughout our 3 day stay. Only the friendly neighbor was there to point out our campsite.

Loggers Creekside Retreat

Beautiful area of Wayne national Forest. We stayed on the new RV site. It's near the road, but very little traffic comes through there. The host was great and made the stay really nice. Unfortunately, we stayed during the drought and the county banned campfires, but I can't blame the owner for that. My only suggestion is that they clean up the building materials near the edge of the site and plant some bushes to create more privacy.

Peaceful Tent Spot, Amazing Host!

Very quiet and scenic, fantastic host and tent camp spot! Keith was incredibly kind, friendly, and communicative. He drove us to the site by ATV up a pretty steep path, so that was very helpful since we had a cooler and such. The bathroom is down the hill as well, so keep in mind if you're coming with children or folks not into a hike, but it's a nice bonus and was clean and well-maintained. Real luxury having a flush toilet AND a secluded campsite! There is one other tent site that was a semi-visible through the early-fall trees, but no one was there the night we camped so I can't attest to how noise would travel. Perfect spot to disconnect and be one with nature, but if you need it, cell service worked well. Great options for many hiking/biking trails of various levels nearby, the host had a laminated map we could review that made it easy to find the trails. After check-out we drove to a super close-by trailhead and continued hiking, so that was convenient. Very enjoyable experience, so serene, so many stars visible at night! We will definitely be booking here again in the future!!

Benton’s on the Baileys’ is a lovely spot. Be aware that it is a steep hike from the parking up to the site, staff was available to shuttle up and down.
