There is a craving to get back into nature, to stay in unique places, to revel in little indulgences, and to have inspiring experiences. Satisfy your cravings with a unique glamping experience at Canvas Cottages™ Glampsite! We're located in the rolling Appalachian Foothills of Coshocton County. You'll be staying in the midst of 13 acres of old hardwoods on an easy incline with a beautiful 3/4 acre pond as your focal point. HQ, our central gathering place, transports glampers back to those summer camp days gone by. It's where our glampers will find fishing gear, yoga equipment, arcade & board games, craft kits, souvenirs, more firewood, and so much more. There's nothing better than spending the day by, on, or in the water. So we stocked the pond and provided our guests with a row boat, a floating dock with hanging chairs, and a wood-fired hot tub to name just a few of the amenities around the pond. While hiking our trails, glampers will also discover a zipline, archery range, tomahawk throwing target, secret library, corn hole court, bonfire pit, and so much more! Our goal is to provide a meaningful and sustainable adventure while giving you some hands-on experience with living off-grid in an environmentally friendly habitat. Each glampsite's theme also strives to transport you to a legendary place and time for that "Historically Modern Glamping Experience." Canvas Cottages™ is a space for you to engage in contemplative actions that connect you with yourself, with others, with nature, and with the great outdoors! Canvas Cottages is minutes away from Rosco Village, a restored 1830s canal town, and Ohio's largest Amish community where you'll find lots of great shopping, homestyle cooking, unique history, and breathtaking rural countryside views. We're also right along the path of 'The 3 Rivers Wine Trail’ where you can tour 7 wineries & a brewery all within a day's scenic drive. There are also several adventure trails for motorcycling, bike riding, and geocaching.

Mostly wooded, this 7.2-acre property features rolling hills and a stream. The woods include groves and unique spaces to explore, and by 2026 the paths will be more fully formed for easier access. The hills throughout the property provide beautiful views, and the landscape is alive with ferns, moss, deer, pollinators, trees, and plants. Thanks to the excellent air and water quality, salamanders and toads also thrive here—though they may take a little searching to spot. During the day, the dappled light makes the site feel magical. The campsite includes a furnished yurt with a bed, fold-out couch, chair, table, and beverage bar for coffee, tea, and water. Propane burners and utensils are provided for cooking, along with an open-fire grill (removable from the fire pit if needed). The outhouse features a composting toilet, a wash area for hands and face, basic hygiene products, and potable water. Additional potable water is also available in the yurt. A dining table with chairs is provided, and plenty of firewood and kindling are stocked for your stay. Solar lights along the trail, on the outhouse, and on the yurt create a warm, cozy atmosphere at night. This property is conveniently located within 20 minutes of the UNESCO World Heritage Hopewell Mound sites, Legend Valley, and Buckeye Lake (30 minutes), as well as OSU Newark, Denison University, the Longaberger Basket Building, and Dawes Arboretum. Grocery stores and restaurants are nearby, with a gas station and mini market just half a mile down the road. Columbus city center is about a 45–50 minute drive. The drive here follows scenic country roads, so please be mindful of winding turns and local wildlife along the way.

Weekend Trip to Canvas Cottages Glampsites

We recently had our first-ever glamping experience at Canvas Cottages, and I can confidently say it set an impossibly high bar. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this wasn't just a place to stay—it was a truly special, detail-oriented experience. We stayed in the magnificent Bombay Belle, which was far more than just a tent; it was a huge, luxurious, and perfectly equipped sanctuary. The hosts have literally thought of every single thing you could possibly need, all while maintaining a commitment to sustainability. The entire space was spotlessly clean and felt incredibly comfortable. What truly made our stay so relaxing and memorable were the incredible amenities and activities. We spent our days by the fire pit, tried our hand at fishing, and had a blast with the classic nostalgic games. The unique activities like tomahawk throwing and archery added a fun, adventurous twist to the getaway. We also loved the secret library, which was such a cool touch! Beyond the beautiful accommodations and activities, the hosts were absolutely lovely people who made us feel so welcome. Their wonderful dog, Spirit, was an absolute joy and a perfect companion to the serene surroundings. This was more than just a trip—it was a chance to disconnect and fully immerse ourselves in a beautiful, peaceful environment. We left feeling completely refreshed and are already planning our return. If you're looking for an unforgettable glamping experience, look no further than Canvas Cottages.

Weekend Trip to Canvas Cottages Glampsites

It was absolutely beautiful! Knowing it was our honeymoon they went out of their way to get us a bottle of wine, forest cover meant even the rain through out the weekend never spoiled our fun, and the honey is to die for! I promise they have thought of everything you haven’t! With so many activities and amazing relaxing spots you’d never have to leave! The most sweet pup wonders the property, who often came to get some love and check in on us! Super close to some amazing spots - you’ll have to ask the owners for their favorites spots!

Weekend Trip to Canvas Cottages Glampsites

Diana and Don’s land is truly a magical place! We left the weekend feeling rested, recharged, and grateful to have spent time on such a beautiful property with such lovely hosts. From the gorgeous Bombay Belle tent to the hammocks on the dock—and one of the most beautiful sunsets we’ve ever seen in their stunning woods—this place is incredibly special and will leave you with lasting memories. I also want to add how incredibly accommodating they were to our dog 💗 She was treated so well, complete with her own adorable pup tent, and had a blast exploring the property alongside Diana and Don’s amazing dog, Spirit! We can’t wait to come back!

2 nights at Buckeye Grove

What a perfect way to spend the weekend. Lisa put a lot of thought into preparing the camper. It was decorated nicely and was supplied with all the necessary items to make a weekend away complete. The scenery was peaceful with a perfect view of the river. I will be recommending this spot to all of our family and friends. Would love to bring our grandchildren...lots of room for tents. Great for those who want to give camping a try or those like ourselves who love to camp but are unable to any longer for what ever reason. Highly recommend you give it a try. We were very pleased.

2 nights at Bunny Bungalow Secluded Geodome

We loved the geo dome. It was our first experience staying in one. The space had everything, including wine/chocolates waiting for us. The space was very cozy and clean. We stayed for 2 nights, enjoyed the view from inside. There is a wonderful hot tub which we loved after a long hike at near by Hocking Hills State Park. I would highly recommend coming and staying at this unique and romantic site. Brent was an excellent host. It was as though we were in a 5 star hotel. He thought of everything and it is decorated so cute!
