With over 230 acres, a lake, trails, the Grand River, and plenty of wildlife. Bass and Buck Adventures is the perfect place to get away. Once known as Parkman Gorge the valley was a hub for water powered industry in the early 1800's. The river and valley is home to a wide array of wildlife. Deer, turkey, eagles, hawks, owls, mink, river otters to name a few. The area also attracts many song birds including a wide variety of warblers. There is also an abundance of wild flowers. The valley is rich in Native American history. Many artifacts have been found on the property. My great grandfather talked about the last Native American to live in Parkman had a cabin on one of the bluffs along the river. In the 1820's there was a water powered sawmill and forge on the river. The boy scouts used the valley for a camp in the 1930's. My grandpa purchased this property in the 50's from Ohio Edison. Ohio Edison's plan to dam up the river for hydro power never materialized. The valley has been a favorite for outdoor enthusiasts. Camping, hiking, fishing, hunting, "jeeping". Many of the items used for the camp sites have been reclaimed. The fire rings are old tractor rims and scrap steel. The tent platform is from reclaimed deck lumber. The firewood is excess cutoffs purchased from a local sawmill.

We had a very pleasant experience camping on Rick's land. The Deep Woods site is perfect for those who pack light and find enjoyment in walking to their destination. The view of many different wildflowers and river made the walk to our site enjoyable. We utilized the pavilion by the lake for lunch and loved those small touches that Rick provided; paddle board, kayak, and a pedal boat for 2. I would stay again.

We had a blast hiking and fishing. Rick stopped by and gave us some history on the property. Firewood and and a portapotty are a short walk around the lake. Will hopefully be staying again soon.

I love Bass and Buck Adventures!
Beautiful area and stream right along the campsite. Tent was watertight and on a raised platform kept us warm and dry all night! Lovely stay and plan on coming back soon.
