Peaceful Pines Site #2
Inaugural Review of Peaceful Pines!
Started out rough as we were not aware of the road block/detour literally a mile from the location. Originally on pace to arrive at 6:15 for a sunset setup, however detour signs confusing and limited causing us to take the next road heading north which a mile in is impassable. (Use main roads only on detour!). Luckily, half way up that wooded “road” I made the decision to turn around..had we not.. no way out.. weekend would have been ruined not to mention camper. As detour time ate up the evening we arrived in the dark having issues locating the exact location with limited sight. That being said… we made it in and after setup, found ourselves in complete silence! Not a cricket even! We rebounded nicely and started loving the Hipcamp site! Not sure I’ve had more quiet site even with the road close by. Peaceful Pines a great name for this site which is also close to so many great hiking excursions including but not limited to Hocking Hills State Park, Ash Cave and Old Mans Cave. Location A+ for some rest and privacy. Being a new Hipcamp, Peaceful Pines had been recently cleared resulting in a campers firewood dream! We brought 8-9 logs of f our own but found plenty there for great fires each night. As a new Hipcamp, site showed signs of being “in progress” and will get better and better with each camper, but all in all.. 5 stars in my opinion. Loved it and will return. *** DO NOT take the next road (east of Macedonia) if coming from SOUTH!
