Hipcamp Best Camping Runner Up 2023 and 2024! Fall Sweet Fall! Book now and enjoy the privacy, the convenience, and the changing colors of Away at Green Hill. Entry point to western Boone County in Northern Kentucky, neighbor to Cincinnati, Indiana and the Ohio River, this 27 acre property marks a geographical change from rolling farmland to steep, forested hillsides. Our end-of-the road, ridgetop property means privacy. Our isolated campsites are surrounded by woods full of turkey, deer, owls, and woodpeckers. Onsite there are wide, easy strolling paths, a growing number of single-track hiking trails, open fields, and forest. And if not booked, a historic log home to explore and do some porch sitting. A great place for solo campers, friends, and families, whether newbies or experienced. Drive-in sites make unloading/loading easy peasey. Standard amenities include privacy - we only book two sites at any time, which are far apart from each other and surrounded by woods. Also, an exceptional outhouse, tables, fire rings, lanterns, Welcome kit (paper, fatwood, lighter, candle). And we have onsite firewood that can be purchased during booking or onsite purchase. Site 1 - Open Sky can accommodate the solo or the group. And it comes with extra amenities: a hammock, trampoline, badminton (spring, summer, fall). It's also closest to the cabin, strolling trails, firewood shed, and outhouse. Site 2 - Gobbler's Knob is a more cozy space - a small rise surrounded by forest. A short walk from the outhouse and firewood shed. It can accommodate pop-ups, small pull-behinds, tents, hammocks. Vehicles can park on site or park at site entrance, just 50'. Site 3 - Henry's Holler. By request only. For 4WD and overlanders only. Read site description in full before requesting. The choice is yours. Boating, kayaking, biking, hiking, museums or lazing about in a tiny riverfront town are minutes away, The curvy, scenic roads lead quickly out of the paved civilization of Union, Kentucky to us and onto the Rabbit Hash General Store, the Ohio River, the ferry to Indiana, the historic Dinsmore Homestead and State Nature Preserve, Middle Creek Park, and Big Bone State Park "Home to Modern Vertebrate Paleontology".

Fantastic. Perfect. Quiet! A very well maintained camping location not far from the city. I am a repeat customer and will be back any chance I get.

The property is a lovely, secluded bit of Northern Kentucky just outside of civilization proper. The drive in gives you that feeling of getting away one looks for when in the outdoors. I enjoyed the slight elevation gain getting up to the site. My site was private on a knoll with light views of the surrounding ridgelines through the trees. The hosts are kind and attentive if needed. I'll be back.

Peaceful with great Amenities!

My family and I had a lovely night of tent camping here! We were the only campers on the property, but even if the other site(s) were booked it would have felt private and secluded. Beautiful property and trails to explore. The log cabin was very cool, and the outhouse was the cleanest/nicest one I have ever seen in my life!

Great camping experience!

Overlanding on this property was a dream! Private camp sites that have plenty of room! Restroom was very pleasant, wood availability is easy, welcome was great. There are fun hiking trails that lead you to an amazing log cabin, Mike had a lot of awesome history on it and I can’t express enough how cool it is!

Peaceful, private and interesting

My normal local camping spot was closed for restoration and I was hoping to find a semi secluded and quiet spot for me and my dog to basically chill and do a little exploring. I was lucky to find Away at Green Hill where I stayed at Gobblers Knob. Terri was a great communicator and very helpful. The site was clean, spacious and provided plenty of privacy. For a small fee they will provide firewood and a fire starting kit. The site had a trail head that brought you around the property where you could explore the unique aspects to the property including a barn, an old cabin and a pond. which could all be booked as unique camp sites. They provided a pit toilet that was the nicest/cleanest one I have ever seen! I slept well in my tent and felt safe the whole time. I would definitely love to come back sometime, thanks again Teri!
