The scenery was amazing and the host family was extremely kind and thoughtful! Very kind locals in the area. Fun things to do as well as the lakes and trails all within an hour radius and much more.

Beautiful farm with awesome hosts and lots of animals! The dogs were very friendly and charming. Very grateful for the firewood!!! The campsite was back in the woods on a ridge surrounded by cliffs. We only stayed for one night between two busy days of hiking but had an amazing time at the private site. I fell asleep to the sounds of owls and whippoorwills then woke up to the songs of warblers, making for an excellent night of sleep and delightful stay. I hope to come back to explore the trails and fish in the pond!!! Thanks so much for hosting us!!!

My friends, my dog, and I had a great time staying at Mariah's campsite. We did not have the chance to explore the property as much as we would have liked since we had plans away from the site, but I would book again to immerse myself further. Mariah and her husband were very accommodating and friendly.

We loved our stay at Piney Ridge Camp. There's a fantastic spot for a tent and campfire. There are hikeable trails with gorgeous views. Our kids got to climb up to a rocky overhang just off the path and climb up to a waterfall. (The waterfall had a good volume of water because of recent rains.) The hosts' hospitality is beyond excellent. Eggs for breakfast, muffins, and even some dry cardboard since drenching rains our first night had made it difficult to get a fire started in the morning. And there's water available right at the campsite, so there's no need to bring large amounts of water. We were accompanied for much of the time by the host's very friendly and well behaved dog. The kids loved petting and playing with him. He even accompanied us on our hike through the woods.

What a beautiful campsite and sweet family! The sunrise this morning was absolutely stunning, and the cliff walls blew my mind. It is a magical place to spend some time.

My friends and I stayed at Piney Ridge to do some tent camping during the Memorial Day weekend and had a great time! We all really enjoyed the property and the campsites. Nice woods to hike in, rock cliffs to check out, creeks, wildlife, farm animals, you name it. It was wonderful! Just a short, scenic drive to Cave Run. Very highly recommended!
