★★★★Dan HeatonRustic. Lower level flooring is falling apart in lodge.
★★★Roger CruserThis business was sold in 2014 to a variety of owners. The land has been preserved by the Ohio Nature Conservancy. The buildings are now used for occasional groups but there are no more outdoor education groups or organized camps.

★★★★★interesting things by BekahEvery year the 5th grade class graduating from Central Elementary school would take a trip to Woodland Alters. I looked forward to this all through my elementary school years. Finally, we went. I remember it like it was yesterday. We all got a Grey t-shirt that said Woodland Alters on it. I treasured that t-shirt for years. I remember that we had to eat every bite of food we took cause all the leftovers were weighed and the team with the least leftovers won. We took a field trip out to an old string bridge. I was terrified but the instructors urged us across. My memories from there are so vivid. I can't explain but this place was passage of rights for me and my friends growing up. I'm now 44 years old and a few days ago I took a delivery out in the country and saw an old white van parked nearby with the woodland alters logo on it. Brought back a flood of memories. Glad to see your still there and teaching people about the wilderness! What an awesome place!! Thank you for the memories!
