The Secluded Glampground In Ohio That Will Take You A Million Miles Away From It All

If you want to connect with nature without being exposed to all of the elements, consider visiting one of Ohio’s best, most impressive glampgrounds.

Nomad Ridge at The Wilds in Cumberland is arguably one of Ohio’s best kept secrets. It’s a hidden gem tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the city and miles away from the small town life. This glampground features several private yurts that provide all the comforts of home just steps away from open pastures, breathing views and exotic animals. It’s a truly special experience you won’t soon forget.

Take a look:

Experience glamping at its finest on the grounds of Ohio's own safari. The luxurious private yurts, gorgeous views and rare wildlife will make you forget you're in Ohio.

The yurts at Nomad Ridge are built on a platform, have bamboo floors, screened windows, private bathrooms with running water, Asian-inspired decor, ceiling fans, solid wood doors and a personal deck next the Wilds’ animal pasture areas.

Rates and bed-size vary, depending on the type of yurt you choose. Complimentary Wi-Fi is now available in all yurts, however, cellphone service is limited.

Please note: Nomad Ridge is open daily from May to October (including holidays) and guests must be 21 and over to stay.

Be sure to bring a pair of binoculars, as you never know what sort of wildlife you'll spot roaming around. (Just imagine an evening on this deck in front of the fire ring. Can you picture yourself here?)

If you find that a yurt is still a little too close to the elements than you'd prefer, you can always check to see if The Lodge is available to book.

One thing is for certain: You'll want to book a safari experience while you're here. Fortunately, many of the excursions are available to Nomad Ridge guests at a discounted price.

The Wilds are located at 14000 International Rd., Cumberland, OH 43732. For rates, reservations and other info about Nomad Ridge, click here.
