The hubs and I just picked up our new Spree Escape 16RBT. We are recent empty nesters, and this is our first ever travel trailer. We are both so excited to be able to get out to the many lovely state parks in the area. First night of "camping" was in the driveway but we had a nice "waterfront" site right next to the pool. Cant wait to do the real thing next weekend.
We decided on this model over many others because of the weight (we are towing with a Jeep Wrangler) and the great value. I look forward to reading about everyone's adventures on this forum!

Welcome from a fellow Buckeye.
There is a lot of interesting places in OHIO to visit. So enjoy your RV, and maybe we'll bump into you along the way. Meet some good people and made great friends around the campfire.

Please post Ohio places and campgrounds you like in the "KZ On The Go" section near the bottom, we would like to hear about them.
We are from Western NY and spend a lot of time in Ohio.....love the state parks. We also like Holmes County, heading there next week. We stay at a quiet small campground in Winesburg, Ohio, called Amish Country Campsite on Rte. 62. They only have about 60 sites and is really geared for units 30 feet or less, though we have seen larger on a few sites. It is a no frills campground, water, electric, WIFI, and grey water drain at the site. Very clean bathhouse/restrooms....dump station on the premise. They usually have a trailer load of wood from a local furniture shop....not split logs but it is free and it works. Very nice place in close proximity to all the Amish attractions and great food. $27.00 per night
We also like the Hocking Hills State Park area. We went to a Washboard Festival in Logan while there a few years ago. What great music at various venues around town. We had a great time and what a fun parade they had too. I hope they still have it, might try to go back next year.
Welcome to the KZ group....hope you like your unit as well as we do.

I stayed at hockings hills. Last spring for the first time. Beautiful. And the cayons and overtlooks are out of this world. The only thing i didnt like was. There is alot of walking. Up and down steep paths and steps. To get to viewing areas. Deffently something. More suitable for the younger generation. But once you fet there. Well worth the trip

It's been a few years since I've been to Hocking Hills, maybe 10? I remember that there is a lot of walking, but aren't the trails rated for difficulty so that you can go as hard or easy as you want?
I forget the name of the campground we were last at, but it was on the side of a hill. Not front to back hill, but side to side. All of us had maxed out the leveling boards that we had and still weren't level. Aside from those campsites, the area is beautiful.

we stayed at the state park campground , down by old mans cave we stayed up top of hill on right side loop. the camp sites are all not perfectly level, however seems like the sites on the left side going towards the water tower are somewhat more level than the right side ones, as stated before great place to camp, and visit but even though most viewing areas so have some parking lots, still in my opinion, alot of walking, i hiked more of the connecting trails to get to one attraction to another, and yes i was tired by days end.
