The Bluffs is a 20 acre campground in Jackson, Ohio. Property highlights include a large fishing pond, trails for hiking, a port-a-potty and 7 campsites. Each site is secluded unique offering idyllic natural beauty and serenity.
Our property currently hosts 6 total Camping Sites.... 3 of them are primitive camping sites that can be pull in's for truck or tent camping & 3 of them tent platform camping sites. Two that are single tiered, and one that we call "The Lookout" that is a 2 tiered platform with room below or above to pop your tent! (your choice). The lower level also includes an outdoor shower, a grill and prep/cooking space for you if you want to entertain guests or family!
The property includes several trails, a fully stocked pond and a "Zen Den" Which is a walk up camping location, available for rent, and has a platform at the site as well.
Just to give you a sneak peek into the future, we also have plans for a Community Kitchen, more Outdoor Showers and a Stage for concerts/events!!

Everything you need for an absolutely memorable and relaxing getaway!!
They have a great set up here. There's a variety of different camp sites on a ridge, each with their own character, off of a gravel loop. The Zen Den was set back in a private clearing among a young trees on a platform, which was handy in rainy weather. The other sites looked appealing too, some in pine trees, others in more of a lawn/clearing. There's a little bit of traffic noise from the nearby highway, but I was there in early spring, and the Zen Den was quiet. I was there off season, so was the only person, but this is probably more lively in the summer. There's a cool viewing platform looking out over the valley. I'd definitely stay here again!
We didn’t want to leave! My friend and I typically enjoy a more primitive backpacking style of camping, but this trip was just more about time at the campsite with more creature comforts. We set out to make this the most comfortable camp out possible, and Wolves Retreat was exactly the vibe we were going for!
The host has this set up so nicely with an extremely easy check-in/check-out. We never even saw or heard another person during our stay, so we’re not sure if anyone else was staying on property - but it felt very private! Would highly recommend this site for a small group.
We had a great time staying at Blackberry Pond at The Bluffs this past weekend. It was a great birthday weekend getaway for my husband to enjoy some fishing, rest and relaxation. We had the area to ourselves which was peaceful. Be aware that you are in proximity to a few houses if staying at the blackberry pond site so you may hear dogs or vehicles from time to time, but we were able to situate our camp spot where you didn’t really notice the houses. There is a slope that you have to work around . The host has built platforms at other sites, so that problem may be fixed in the future. We did meet the host who was very friendly and welcoming. There is a trail that goes around the pond, and one that works its way up to some of the other camp sites. We had a lovely time and would recommend.
We love Limestone bluffs! Second time staying at the lookout and was just as beautiful even though it got down to the 30s at night. I love that it is available for 1 night, which is super nice for diving down from Columbus and hiking during the day and then glamping at night for a short stay. The heater that was there worked well but we went through 3 pounds of kerosene. The outdoor shower is completely taken apart now(10/26) but we used our little heater and washed off in the shower area after our sweaty hike. The kerosene fire place on top of the platform is so cute too. Lots of little trails to walk on the property and nice blend of pretty trees. Take all your camping gear and you'll be in love!!
We loved camping at wolves retreat! It was a perfect pit stop on our way to our final destination. Unfortunately, there was a burn ban and we were unable to have a fire which would've been the icing on the cake. We will definitely book again. Highly recommend.
Overall nice private camp spot, host is very friendly and helpful. we enjoyed our time there it’s near lake Katherine state preserve which is a definitely a nice short hiking spot with some nice views.
