This house/Boondockers location is located 18 miles south of Columbus Ohio in a little farm town. Columbus is a great place for foodies and microbreweries, Clippers baseball, Ohio State university, Blue Jacket hockey, Nation Wide arena, Ohio State fairgrounds. There is a small lake south of me that has a nice 4 mile hiking path - Hargus Lake. Thirty miles east is the Hocking Hills, more nice hiking. Twenty miles west is Deer Creek state park which has a beach and lake. The area is good for road biking. Just a block north of the host site is an elementary school and a park with a walking track.

Location
Access Road Conditions: The RV boon docking area is off of a main road in a small farm town two miles off of a state route. My only concern is the transition from the main road into my driveway, some trailers drag. I personally had a 40 foot fifth wheel that I pulled in and out. Reasonable backing skills would be necessary, either backing in from the street or backing out. There is no room to turn big rigs around on the property. Smaller rigs will have no problem turning around or maneuvering. There are many roads that lead you to Ashville Ohio. The two main roads coming off of State Route 23 into Ashville are St. Route 752 and St. Route 316... both of these routes have height restrictions due to a train overpass. 13’6” for Rt 316 and 13’9” for Rt 752. Tow Vehicle Parking Details: There is a gravel lot behind my garage that has room to park both an RV and a tow vehicle together.

We stayed at small town Central Ohio for two nights as we passed through town. it was a private spot tucked behind the property. We enjoyed the privacy and the area was peaceful. The host was helpful and checked in to see if we needed anything. There was electric and water available which was great! 5 stars for a great host and awesome location.

Location could not have been better. Quiet and secluded behind the garage. So quiet, in fact, that we left the windows open all night and were not disturbed. Great direction and communication from the host. A+ from us!

We stayed here for our first boondocking spot and it worked out great. Although Don was available in person that night, he answered all questions by email almost immediately and his directions and answers were very clear. We have a class B van so we were able to pull behind the barn and have a very private spot. Thank you for making this available!
