There are getaways, and then there are the kind where you wake up surrounded by thousands of acres of open landscape, spend your afternoon on safari, soar above the treetops, and end the day watching the sun disappear over the hills.
Tucked into the beautiful countryside of southeastern Ohio, about a two-hour drive from Columbus, The Wilds feels worlds away without requiring a plane ticket or a week off work. Whether your perfect escape involves a cozy yurt, a private lakeside cabin, an off-road safari, or a zipline high above the landscape, package deals and special discounts make it easier to turn a visit into a full-fledged getaway.
So, what kind of adventurer are you?
