Paint Creek State Park is perched on the border of the Appalachian Plateau and is a fantastic base for exploring the glacier-carved landscape. At nearby Rocky Fork State Park, you can peer into a gaping 75-foot gorge that was formed when glacial ice blocked the flow of the creek. In summer, botanists flock to admire Sullivantia, a rare wildflower that blooms in the canyon. Above Rocky Fork Creek, the 2,600-acre Highlands Nature Sanctuary protects ancient Native American sites like Fort Hill and Serpent Mound. Historians shouldn't miss the Adena State Memorial. It was founded to preserve the 5,000-acre estate of Thomas Worthington, former governor of Ohio and United States senator. The stunning 19th-century mansion is filled with antiques, while the grounds command sweeping views over the Scioto River Valley and Mount Logan range. A 15-minute drive away, Bainbridge is a great place to stock up on gas, groceries, and other motorhome camping essentials. For more choice, head to Chillicothe, a riverside city with cafes, restaurants, and fast food favorites. The closest major airports are in Columbus and Cincinnati, both excellent cities to kickstart your state park motorhome camping getaway and rent a camper near Paint Creek State Park.
