Flannel Dog Farm is a seven acre homestead on the site of an 1860's farm. We have chickens, ducks, and dogs as well as a variety of wild animals. We have a large, open camping area and an emerging forest filled with native trees and birds. We are a peaceful, rustic, and safe site located just 15 mins. from I-90 and a mile south of Lake Erie. And, we make a mean breakfast– just read our reviews :)
We offer several lodging options, detailed below. The Peace Portal, bell tent, and tent camping are on our farm proper, while the Blue Cabin is just down the road on a separate wooded parcel.
The Peace Portal:
---------------------
This comfy, rustic tiny house sits next to a beautiful pond. Watch the wild birds & animals through its large upcycled window, or sip your morning coffee on its sunny front porch. Enjoy a private picnic table and fire ring, as well as access to a shared standard half bath. Booking includes a farm fresh breakfast (kindly let us know of any dietary restrictions in advance) and one load of firewood.
Blue Cabin:
--------------
Located just down the road from our farm, the Blue Cabin is a private, off-grid cabin on a heavily wooded lot. Enjoy lots of shade, and a space that often stays cool, even in the heat of summer. Amenities include a picnic table & fire ring (comes with one load of firewood), water via a Berkey filter, and a compositing toilet.
Bell Tent or Tent Camping
--------------------------------
Deep in our property is our camping area. Because the bell tent and tent camping share a large picnic area + fire ring, we only allow one to be booked at a time so you can enjoy a relaxing, private experience. Both have access to a shared standard bathroom (short walk) or composting toilet (onsite). Breakfast can be added to either booking.
The spacious bell tent includes a double futon mattress and bedding. A single mattress may be added. Kindly note that this particular offering is child- and pet-free.
About Us
------------
Chris Zielski and Alan Block are the wife and husband team that steward the farm. Chris is an artist and has a beautiful onsite studio, Copper Leaf Studios. Alan is a sourdough baker, gardener, and fermenter.
We look forward to your visit! Message us if you have any questions.

Awesome hide away!!! Brittany was very helpful and quick to respond to any questions. This is the quietest place I’ve been in a long time. The wood burning stove was more than enough to keep things toasty with just a small amount of wood. Bed and pillows are comfy and warm. The privy is a 10 out of 10 nature poop, highly recommend. We will definitely be back for another visit!

Weekend Trip to Flannel Dog Farm
What a wonderful experience!!! From the start Alan and Chris were great communicators, which made my first time using this service so comfortable. Chris met us when we arrived and showed us around. She was amazing and asked about my partner’s dietary needs for both the charcuterie board I purchased and the breakfast that came with our stay. The farm itself was just as welcoming. The tiny home we stayed in was cozy and comfortable. We did not use the provided wood for the fire, but it was nicely stacked and ready for us if we chose to. We had the charcuterie on the first night and it was perfect. We were treated to a lovely spread of items that included Alan’s home made focaccia(soooo worth it!). The breakfast the next two mornings were worth the trip on their own. Alan had brought out coffee (delicious) for me and tea for my partner. The breakfast each morning was a spectacular way to start any day! We were also treated to a tour of Chris’s awesome studio and got to see some of her art, so cool. I would definitely recommend staying here and will probably follow my own advice again at a later day! Don’t hesitate, you are not going to regret staying with these amazing hosts!!

Magical little spot, fields and meadows, lovely hosts, secluded yet a wide-open sky for star gazing. Inside the cabin is the coziest, vintage vibe appointed with thoughtful extras everywhere I turned. I can’t rightfully call it camping: I felt absolutely spoiled!

Weekend Trip to Flannel Dog Farm
As soon as I pulled onto the property, I could feel how special the farm was. WOW. The Peace Portal Tiny House took my breath away upon first sight - and I was so content just to read, write, eat (especially that insanely amazing breakfast, cooked by our hosts!), meditate, and soak up alllll the sights & sounds.
From curious rabbits to croaking frogs, crowing roosters to lightning bugs zipping past my window as I rested in that cozy bed - it was everything I needed for an overnight getaway. Access to a half bath was AWESOME, as well as provided drinking water and an outdoor mini fridge, if needed. (Plus, it's only a mile to the lake!)
Chris & Alan have created something truly special - and are PHENOMENAL, responsive, thoughtful hosts and human beings. STAY HERE! :-)

Weekend Trip to Indian Lake Adventures
We had a great time glamping in our adorable Indian Lake tiny house! The grounds are well maintained and lovely, and the staff were super friendly and helpful. On the edge of the property is a brew pub with games, cozy seating indoors and out, fire pits, and sometimes even live music and food trucks, which was a pleasant surprise. House was well equipped with many essentials, too. Would definitely stay again!!

Where to go
Great Lakes Plains
Sandy beaches and island getaways dot the 312-mile shore of Lake Erie, stretching from Toledo through Cleveland to Conneaut. East Harbor State Park is a highlight of the Lake Erie Birding Trail, and birders flock to nearby Maumee Bay State Park during the spring warbler migration. The most scenic spots for summer camping are on the islands, and regular ferries set out for the Bass Islands and Kelleys Island state parks.
Till Plains
Cornfields and farmlands blanket Ohio’s central region, but there are also more than a dozen state parks within a short drive of Columbus. The limestone gorges of John Bryan State Park harbor some of the region’s best hiking trails, while to the north, the Mohican River is one of Ohio’s top spots for canoeing. For beaches, boating, and lakeside campgrounds, Indian Lake State Park and Alum Creek State Park are both popular choices.
Appalachian Plateau
East of the Till Plains, the patchwork farmlands of Amish Country lead the way to the state’s only national park, Cuyahoga Valley. This is where Ohio’s adventurous spirit comes into its own—take a ride on the Cuyahoga Valley Railroad, go ziplining or caving in the Hocking Hills State Park, or enjoy backcountry camping in the heart of the Wayne National Forest.
Bluegrass Region
Rambling woodlands and steep cliffs line the banks of the Ohio River in the state’s southernmost region. Just outside Cincinnati, East Fork State Park has one of the largest state campgrounds in Ohio, while the rugged landscapes of the Shawnee State Park are just a 2-hour drive from the city. For hikers, the ultimate challenge is the North Country National Scenic Trail, which cuts through southern Ohio.
