πŸ‘πŸ‘ I have been coming here since I was 14, but religiously every year to hike and explore for the last 5 years. I have had so many wonderful experiences here, usually always very peaceful.

Siloam Springs State Park
Park
πŸ‘ $20 a night for power in the middle of nowhere equals quiet nights and lots of wildlife!!! It's a hilly camp, so most trails are down and up. The tow in wasn't bad, a few small hills. The Hickory Hills spot was up a steep hill that I didn't want to tackle. The other camp sites were easily accessibl...

Adams Lake State Park
State park
πŸ‘ My friend and I jokingly renamed the park as Lily Pad Park and Lake of the Lilies because well…that’s all that you’ll see on the water these days! An occasional crane or a few ducks and geese. My family loves to kayak here (beginners and it’s easier on steady water when you’re new) and it makes it n...

πŸ‘πŸ‘ Absolutely incredible. The couple who owns this place are so kind and full of information. My family learned a ton. We were blown away by just how vast and large that place was.

πŸ‘πŸ‘ The scenery is gorgeous, and the park is perfectly peaceful! We stayed in a cabin and the view from the back deck was beautiful. The geese, the water, the enormous green trees and no guests on either side of us made this getaway a true delight. The fixtures, carpet and furniture in the cabin are old...

Adams County Historical Society
Museum
😠 I’m thinking many of the high reviews here are from people that may not have been to many historical societies before and aren’t exactly looking at the big picture with how a historical society or museum are supposed to be managed. This is one of those that had a few old items donated decades ago bu...

πŸ‘πŸ‘ Lovely preserve that links to Buckeye Trail. Enjoyed the shorter .5 mi Sullivantia Loop. Takes you by Cedar Fork Creek, red and white cedar, oaks.
