4. The Cove (river front)
Amazing first Hipcamp experience!
My friends and I camped on DL’s land for a bday celebration/overdue friend “reunion” and had such a good time! The host was friendly and greeted us upon arrival, giving us the scoop on all kinds of wildlife we were likely to see (eagles, osprey, owls, river otters?!, dragonflies at dusk, etc) and spots to check out (a tire/rope swing we didn’t have time to go check out, an award-winning ice cream shop nearby, etc). We stayed at the Cove which was perfect for us size-wise and for more privacy. As someone who’s super allergic to poison ivy, I appreciated that there either wasn’t much naturally growing at the site, or that they’d taken care to remove it for campers. We’d camped at another place on the Little Miami (not a HipCamp site) the weekend prior that was covered in it— so it was nice not to have to dodge that getting down to the river, at least not from our access point. Lovely river-hangs during the day, beautiful moonlight and stars at night— we when saw an owl (?) fly overhead in the night! Just a really unique and beautiful place overall. I did find it hard to get ahold of the host in the days leading up to our trip via the app, and wish I’d seen that once you’ve booked there is a cell # listed to text or call him— so fyi that may be an easier route to reach him with any questions once you’ve booked?

2. River Run (w/footpath to river)
The campsite was immaculate when we arrived. Relaxing with nothing but the river sounds close by was amazing. Another family camped in the spot right next to ours and though we were initially disgruntled about it, the separation between campsites kept both families privacy well apart. It was all around an amazing experience!

Great spot along the river. Not too close to the next sites over.

2. River Run (w/footpath to river)
Nice spot. Poor host experience.
It is a great location unfortunately our experience was not great. We rent tubes and they were not at our campsite and the host was not responsive to our messages. His notes said he would be gone the 4-6th of August and we were there on the third. I messaged multiple times and finally heard back that we would get a refund. We are now two weeks from our trip and no refund has been given. There was also never an apology that we did not get what we rented. It is unfortunate that this was our first HipCamp experience. I hope others are better.

The Cove
I camped at The Cove. It was peaceful listening to the river at night. Highly recommended
