With ample shade, a fire pit, and nearby portapotty, you can relax under the stars into the night. Hiking trails weave through the back of the property and you are welcome to explore those as well. Because we are a working homestead and farm, a few things are true: -Sometimes there’s mud. We suggest boots for walking around the property and in the woods. -Our farm animals are great - and may also bite. Please do not pet or chase them. We are happy to arrange opportunities to interact with the animals. Just ask! -Not always, but at times, our neighbors will start farming early in the morning and you can hear their machinery. All of our sites have privacy but are not truly remote. We want you to enjoy yourselves but please be mindful that our house is on the property as well as our neighbors.

Conveniently located 1 mile from Oberlin College, 6 minutes from the turnpike (I-80), and 35 minutes from Cleveland, Heartland Homestead is like stepping away from the hustle of everyday life and into nature.

We loved our stay at Uncle Chuck’s. The cabin had so many more amenities than expected, the bed was comfortable, and the property is beautiful. We caught lots of fish from the bank and enjoyed taking our kayaks out and building a fire. We went into the little town of Grand Rapids and found the cutest places! We are definitely going to share this property with our friends and can’t wait to make our way back!

Glamping Cabin 2! Two front porch chairs will also be here for you to relax on as well!

Chuck has a great place to relax and enjoy nature. We used it as a quick getaway from the city with our dog. It doesn’t take a lot of planning of packing to have a comfortable experience, Chuck provides pretty much anything you could need at the cabin. He’s a very thoughtful host and we will be coming back!

One of the most relaxing vacations I've ever had. We went on labor day weekend and it was so secluded we barely seen anyone else the whole trip. So relaxing just to sit by the fire looking over the river while hearing nothing but nature. They provide you with just about everything you need including firewood and propane. Highly recommended!

We visited again. It's always relaxing and the hosts responds whenever you text or call them. Chuck and his wife are friendly and even brought us fresh peaches from their trees! Our dogs loved the scenery and the swimming. You must go here! Everything you need is stocked. All you really need to bring is food and clothes. Thanks Chuck!

Weekend Trip to Uncle Chuck's Cabin

Uncle Chuck's cabin before the journey to it was already going to get a good review, how could it not? A private cabin with some essential comfort items next to a beautiful scene with ample recreation opportunity. Then we arrived and met Chuck. Chuck built an absolutely heavenly retreat. The craftsmanship of the cabin and outdoor utilities are beautiful and comfortable. We anticipated a traditional camping trip, except with a roof and four walls instead of a tent. We were wrong. The amenities provided on top of the comfortable setting really sealed the deal for what I'd interpret "glamping" to be. Ample firewood, charcoal, chairs, coffee, books, games, toiletries galore, and many more things I don't have enough characters to tell you about. The property offered splendid fishing opportunity, an excellent view, and perfect privacy. I could go on and on but let me tell you if youre considering a retreat to enjoy the Maumee River, look no further. A very kind, thoughtful, and skilled man will lead you to an awesome cabin for a trip you will surely enjoy. We will be back!

We had such a wonderful time at this cabin! The scenery was absolutely beautiful, and we loved being able to wander the property, visit with the cows and goats, and watch the fireflies light up the night. The evening was spent by the fire pit, roasting s’mores, so peaceful and relaxing. When my son lost his blanket, the hosts went out of their way to help us look for it, which we truly appreciated. Overall, it was a charming, restful getaway, and we left with great memories.

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!

Just outstanding! Chuck was a great host who meet us at his property, took us to the cabin, and showed us around. His place is perfect for those looking to enjoy the water weather fishing, kayaking, or enjoying the fire in the shore. The accommodations were also perfect with the little extras thrown in. My son and I stopped counting the catfish we caught after 20. Definitely recommend.

Cute little spot! I just stayed here with my dog for a quick overnight while we were on a road trip. It felt super private as the cabin is far back from the main house. It was super clean and the bed was really comfortable too! We loved seeing all the fireflies in the field :)

Weekend Trip to Uncle Chuck's Cabin

Very accommodating hosts. Everything provided. generator gas, firewood, kuerig pods, bug spray, grill, utensils, and lanterns. Even some board games and coloring for the kids! If coming in the warm months note that there is no AC but fans for cooling. Wear your old shoes because there is a heavy presence of goose droppings. The aluminum John boat is very roomy and they even gave us a late checkout so we didn’t rush pack up. If you’re coming to fish, great spot for access!

This place is incredible! Beautiful views, relaxing and private environment. The only scary thing for me was the bedroom loft - no railing once the steps are down. The hosts are friendly and put a lot of effort into making this a great place to stay. We're looking forward to future visits!
