Millfield, Ohio
The Basecamp is the perfect hub for accessing Wayne National Forest, the Baileys Trail system, Hocking Hills, Ohio University and many other Southeastern Ohio treasures. Basecamp guests will be surrounded by the Baileys Trail System: 70 miles of maintained trails for mountain biking, hiking and unlimited outdoor adventures.
The cabin has 4 beds and a pullout to accommodate 6 people. The campsite next to the cabin is included. There is an extra guest fee of $10 per guest per night for more than 6 guests (total of 12 maximum).
The cabin does NOT have running water but it does have a compost toilet. Two full restrooms with showers are within 30 yards. A water cooler for drinking is provided. The primary cooking sources are a gas grill and griddle on the back porch.
The place itself was very well constructed and cared for. Good wifi. The bathroom/shower is a bit far away, though it seems they’re building new ones connected to the house. The lack of running water is challenging, and it could use a tv. Still, generally a good option if in the Athens area.
The cabin was clean and perfect for our family. We had so much fun!
Perfect location tucked right in the middle of the Baileys trail system. The cabin was super clean, comfortable, and well appointed. We will definitely be back again. Thanks for the wonderful hospitality!
Rented for the weekend due to daughters graduation from OU . Seemed deep in the woods and relatively remote when we arrived in the dark. The cabin sits alongside the road in a little (slightly scruffy) “campsite” … and we realized that the caretakers home was not far. Which was good to know. Cabin access could not have been easier. Once in, we discovered a spotlessly clean, nicely furnished, charming little space to stay smelling of fresh cut wood. Delightful! Comfy couch, nicely lit, with a little kitchenette sporting a microwave & decent size ‘fridge (happy to see since I had to store a few things for the following days graduation party). We slept soundly in 2 of the 4 beds in the upstairs loft … solid mattress & nice sheets. Only drawback is that there is no running water in this cabin … I detail I neglected to notice when reading through the info. before booking it for the weekend. Sigh. Finding the shower also had me stumped (also missed that). There is a helpful binder in the cabin with info. on WiFi, hiking trails, local restaurants, maps, and such. Nowhere does it mention the location of the showers, which would’ve been helpful. ?. I located the building with 2 bathrooms the next morning, which were large and well equipped. Nice towels! All in all it worked out fine … My son, and I had a good laugh about my missing a few details with the booking … But it was a charming place to stay, and not terribly far from campus.
This place is a solid stay if you’re enjoying the Hocking/Athens area. I definitely recommend!
I really only used this for a crash pad while visiting my daughter at OU. I do have to say that the area was beautiful and I had the best night’s sleep I’ve had in years! I’d definitely like to come back and explore the trails and use the camp site.
Perfect cabin for a quick stay down in Athens area. Very clean, and in a beautiful location. I will be back again!
Loved staying at this cabin. Beautiful property with a fire pit and nice porch to relax on. Everything you would need is provided and the owner was very helpful! Would stay here again.
Girls weekend to enjoy the falling leaves. It was a perfect place to get away, and enjoy the sights and sounds. It was actually a benefit to have no WiFi as we spent time talking, laughing, and hiking. Very clean, cute, and comfortable! Would stay again!!
Loved the secluded location and convenience to Athens. Property was as nice as pictured!
Beautiful little cabin with everything you need but running water and Wifi. Greeted in the morning by the local roosters and turkey who made himself at home on our front porch-scared the dickens out me when i was headed out to the showers. The local cat was also very sweet and we actually found him in our cabin after a day at Ohio U visiting our daughter...not sure how it got in there? All these things my wife and I found charming and quirky which made our stay unique vs a local Hampton Inn. My only complaint is having no wifi or cell service we found difficult as we were needing to communicate with our daughter. Other than that, some would find no running water a problem but we did not due to having a shower about 50 yards away. I can see how this can great if you biking the local trails...nice firepit and beautiful setting.
The owner and property manager at Bailey's were perfectly delightful. It was the perfect mix of functionality and camping. We enjoyed just spending time at the camp. We saw more stars than we had ever seen on our stay. Our two adventurous boys explored the bubbling creek behind the property and we were truly able to relax knowing they were safe. We rarely saw a car pass while we were there. Very relaxing! We did have a problem with the electric skillet. For some reason it didn't work. Our host quickly replaced the skillet and also gave us a dozen free eggs from the chickens on the property. Win win! Thank you for a great vacation Baily's camp!
We had a great quiet stay over the weekend! We celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary!
