A great way to wrap up an awesome visit to The Wilds, doing the wild thing ~ a Zipline tour! I must say I was apprehensive, especially when we got to the top of the tower to actually begin our tour- "how can I skillfully back out" I was thinking. But, I did not- and so glad I didn't! Maddy & Nick were terrific! We may have been their 1,000th group, but they treated it like we were their one & only! Fun!! Really had a great time! Just do it! Zip-a-Dee-doo-dah!

The Baker Family Museum is one of very few attractions in the city of Caldwell, OH. Since we were passing through and the museum was open, we decided to check it out. The museum has a collection of 300,000 items ranging from glass antiques to other random historical artifacts. Most notable is a small display of pieces from the USS Shenandoah aircraft that crashed in Noble county. The glassware is from the local area. The museum is only open Wednesday through Saturday from 9am until 4 or 5pm. So check the website to ensure it is open when you plan to visit. There is usually someone there that can answer questions for you or maybe give a small tour. The museum itself is small and had tons of pieces randomly crammed into shelves. It has an 'old' smell to it (probably since most items date back so far). Overall, its something to do if you are passing through, but it shouldn't take more than an hour to get through.

More people need to know about this gem in Ohio. A must see for animal lovers and conservationists.
Sitting on over 10,000 acres of reclaimed land, you will be exposed to animals you can not see anywhere else.Their conservation and care of the animals is top-notch.
The open air tours have breaks with the option to get off the bus This allows parents of preschoolers and toddlers to expend energy. For parents of preschoolers and toddlers it's all about energy management. There's even an option for food midway through the tour.
You will be amazed how how close you can get to the wildlife and the variety of the wildlife.
Only one caution, not a complaint. If it's late in the year, get an earlier tour, sometimes the animals have to be sheltered and you don't want to miss them. They shelter some of the animals if the weather will dip below 40 degrees Fahrenheit.
The Wilds is some distance from popular eateries, so factor that into your planning, but the food served there is great for young kids and their parents and grandparents.
Because of the variety of animals you will enjoy a return visit every tour is different.
Must see!

There are several areas to camp in this primitive area. We stayed in Area H. It had rained hard right before we got there for the evening and there were puddles everywhere. There was a small creek really flowing along our campsite and the fish were hitting the water. We were impressed there were trashcans in the area. There was one male/female pit toilet. It was extremely quiet with only a few other campers there. Go to website to print out the permit to camp and a map: aep.com

My wife and I do outdoor walks every chance we get. We chose to do this one following a rainy night and early morning. i did bring my hiking boots but not my hiking stick. Nice drive to the park and after we parked the car she chose to take a short cut, so we didn't have to walk back and around through the swing set area. Unfortunately, the hill down the trail to access the trail was a slippery slope and I slid down it on my backside. I was able to not land in the lake but did wash myself off there. The walk is listed as 2.4 miles to the primitive campsite and 2.4 miles back. Not sure what they used to measure because my Fitbit registered a round trip of nearly 8 mile. The walk is very nice. There is fishing, camping and a nice dam as well. There is a grill close to the entrance.
