Shady Owl Ranch is a 18 acre non-profit animal sanctuary with dogs, cats, chickens, ducks and turkeys. The cats and poultry are free range so if you are fearful of chickens, ducks or turkeys, you probably shouldn't stay here. 😁 Owners Chuck and Amanda moved from Northern California and re-established their rescue here in Central Ohio. We have two finished studio cabins. They are very close (2 miles) to the town of Mount Vernon, OH with hiking trails on the property. Pets are allowed but there are free range animals on the property so their safety is priority. We have added a 2 acre fenced in area for dogs off leash. It's our version of a Dog Park. Plenty of bike trails around town and only 20 miles to Mohican State Park. Farm fresh eggs from our rescued chickens and local honey are available for purchase. Money from our vacation rental helps with feeding our rescue animals and expanding our non-profit animal sanctuary.

Host were quick to respond to requests and questions. Cabin was Soo cute and perfect amount of space for us (2 adults and 1 older kid). Having the option for AC and a real bed is what I needed to relax and get away from "life" but also cook on the fire and sit by the water. Turkeys do get close and that was awesome. Would love to go back in every season! Thanks for a cool unique stay!

Weekend Trip to Geneva Hills

Really nice campgrounds. Tent sites are in forested area- we could just barely see our neighbors in the next site. Very quiet- no background traffic. There are a lot of activity ‘zones’, I imagine that it would get busy. There are restrooms at the pool- heavily used and maybe not appealing but they are not dirty nor are they secure. But there is a real nice, finished full bath that locks on the back side of the welcome center. I would stay here again. Note: if you are in a regular car- as opposed to a truck- avoid Blue Gill site, you have to come in/out at an extreme angle to about bottoming out!

The price was right. Was nice having shower and restroom. Decent gap between you and neighbors. Perch site has a decent slope to it. The others seemed to have more flat space. Getting to the water from the camp site itself is possible but again decent slope there. All in all was a good time and would recommend.

Me and my girls took a three day weekend to Hocking Hills. Geneva was a great place to camp. We felt safe tucked into the forest. The pool was awesome. It was nice to have that little treasure close by. The lake was a little smaller than expected and the fish in it, a little small. But it was still beautiful. And the price is just right. There was nobody in the welcome center this weekend, but we could call the number if we needed anything and I only needed to do that once and the person who answered was very helpful. I will definitely go again!

Weekend Trip to Geneva Hills

I love the campsite. It was beautiful and amazing. We had Catfish and it was a peer of the lake. They responded to all questions I had pretty quickly. Especially for a weekend. The pool looks well maintained. Overall a wonderful experience.
