Erik and Olivia were introduced to the little piece of family land that would become Fern Hollow Farm in June of 2014. What was an Alfalfa (medicago sativa) field lain fallow for seven years, would soon have bigger ambitions. After walking the meadow and feeling the magic of place, Olivia and Erik began the work of designing. Shortly thereafter, they set off across the US, staying at various permaculture oriented farms; with herbalists, seed savers and more, looking for inspiration and learning everything they could along the way. One seed saver, the awe-inspiring Sylvia Davatz of Solstice Seeds in Vermont, gifted them the two wild Kazak apple trees that are on either side of the entrance, and are featured in the logo as well.Begun officially in 2015, Fern Hollow Farm is an ever-evolving, community-based entity inspired by three simple ethics: Earth Care * People Care * Fair Share

Welcome to Cherokee Valley Bison Ranch Tipi Stay
Our farm has been in our family for more than 50 years. It was lovingly purchased by my Cherokee grandmother with the intention of gifting each of her children a piece of land. In 2008, we began raising bison here, and we chose the name Cherokee Valley to honor my heritage and the extraordinary gift passed down from my grandmother and mother.
We created this tipi experience to share that gift with you.
Your Tipi Stay
Spend the night in our spacious 22-foot tipi, thoughtfully placed to immerse you in the sights and sounds of the ranch. Inside, you’ll find a comfortable queen platform bed provided for your convenience. Guests should bring their own sleeping bags, linens, pillows, and blankets.
The tipi comfortably sleeps up to 6 guests—two on the provided queen bed, with ample room for additional cots or air mattresses you bring. Cots are available to rent as an add-on. You’re also welcome to pitch additional tents or hang hammocks in the surrounding trees, allowing space for up to 10 guests total.
The Ranch Experience
Cherokee Valley Bison Ranch is a working ranch, home to plains bison, honeybees, chickens, and peafowl. We are proud to be a Certified Wildlife Habitat, Certified Firefly Habitat and Monarch Waystation.
Explore our scenic hiking trails that wind through rolling hills, wildflowers, and native grasses. Nature lovers will delight in the abundance of birds, butterflies, and wildlife throughout the property. After your hike, cool off in the clear, pristine creek bordering the ranch (water shoes recommended).
As evening settles in, enjoy a wood-fired meal prepared over your private fire pit/grill, then watch the sunset paint the valley in golden light. Fall asleep to the call of hoot owls, and wake to the soft morning glow filtering through the tipi’s beautifully painted translucent cover.
Location & Nearby Adventures
We’re conveniently located near several wineries, breweries, and outdoor recreation areas, including kayaking, canoeing, golfingnd biking. We’re also close to Legend Valley concert venue, and just a short drive from Buckeye Lake, Dillon Dam, and Hocking Hills.
Don’t forget to visit our on-site farm store, where we offer a selection of grass-fed bison raised on the ranch!

Creating magic even in the midst of chaos.
Step into a sanctuary of warmth and simplicity, where modern design meets serene comfort. Inspired by the Danish concept of “hygge,” this Scandinavian-style treehouse welcomes you with a private hot tub on the upper deck, a suspension bridge, and a rock formation patio that feels like a natural spa retreat.

Stepping inside, you’re welcomed by the serene queen bedroom, thoughtfully designed for comfort and rest. A custom-built twin bunk adds both charm and additional space for two more guests. Just off the bedroom, the beautifully tiled full bathroom feels like a private spa retreat—complete with complimentary toiletries should you need anything during your stay.
Venture down to the lower level where the heart of the treehouse comes alive. A fully stocked kitchen—with curated spices, premium oils, and fresh coffee pods—invites you to create memorable meals. Gather at the handcrafted dining table with its custom bench, designed to seat your group of six with ease.
Also on this level, a cozy daybed nook offers the perfect place to curl up with a movie, dive into a good book, or drift off to sleep—accommodating two additional guests in comfort.

RVers if you are coming in from US Rte 33 please use Buena Vista Rd. Buena Vista Rd is one exit after Oppossum Hollow if you are heading East on 33 and also one exit pass 374 if you are heading West on 33. GPS will usually route you onto Oppossum Hollow Rd or State Rte 374. The State Rte 374 route will have you turn onto Oppossum Hollow. Oppossum Hollow road is a one lane unlined rd and is not the best for RVs. Taking Buena Vista Rd will only add about a mile and a few minutes to your trip. Be advised Buena Vista is a very curvey road but is traveled by large vehicles all the time. Just take it slow and you will be fine. We have a dully truck and 45 ft rig that we bring in and out just fine.
If you are coming in from the South (Chillicothe area.) From State Rte 180, please take Jack Run Rd. This is also a paved two lane road. All other roads in the area are single lane rds and are not the best for RVs (don't use Middlefork, Long Run, Stump Run, or Clapper Hollow off of State Rte 180).

I'm an artist and my husband and I have a small homestead with chickens and sometimes sheep/goats. Look out for electric netting to keep our herd/flock protected. The lighting over our back field is divine in the late afternoon, or if you prefer a wooded setting, we have a small wooded area across the street from our house. The area is hilly and rather private-- only one neighbor is visible when the trees are leafed out. Electric is accessible from an outlet at the backyard fence or in the barn. We often have fresh veggies and fruit in the garden in the summer, and sometimes extra farm fresh eggs. Nearby (10 minute drive) is Hargus lake, with boat rental and fishing. Also nearby is the Slate Run Historical Farm, (15 minute drive) which is a farm that is fully functioning as a farm from the 1880's with sheep, draft horses, hogs, and poultry at Slate Run Metro park, which has many woodland and wetland trails, as well as a covered bridge and several playgrounds. We are about 35 minutes from the Hocking Hills area, which is one of the most beautiful and unique areas in Ohio.

Weekend Trip to Cherokee Valley Bison Ranch Creekside Retreat
Carie was an excellent host and more than accommodating. She even provided a propane heater for us as the weather was much colder than anticipated. The tipi was much bigger than we expected, and the cooking utensils and coffee maker was added bonus. We had a great time and created some wonderful memories. Thanks, Carie!

Jim is a great host. When I arrived there was a bit of a cold front and he advised me on which camp site would be better suited for the weather. The one I originally picked was pretty chilly down in the valley so I moved to the Dog Wood Hill.
He promptly brought firewood and made sure I had everything I needed. The land itself is awesome, the wildlife is awesome, I will be coming back.

We had such a wonderful stay at Kyla’s homestead this weekend! Our trip was pretty last-minute, but Kyla and her family were incredibly accommodating and made everything so easy for us from the start.
The property itself is absolutely beautiful, with plenty of space to relax and really enjoy being surrounded by nature. It felt peaceful, welcoming, and like the perfect little escape.
My son especially loved checking out the chickens, and our dog had the best time playing with their sweet and energetic pup, Opal.
Thank you, Kyla and family!

What an awesome camping experience!!
My wife and I had a chance to get away for the weekend and this was a perfect choice. Yes there are goats and we LOVE goats but there loads of chickens, sheep, ducks, turkeys, cats and a couple of gorgeous Great Pyrenees dogs. As certified critter lovers, we had a blast and will definitely come back again when we have the chance.

The goats are unruly! Laura, a goat, was my admirer and the kids were the cutest things to watch. I laughed at their silliness the whole time. Many sheep, goats, chickens, ducks, cats, dogs, rabbits, turkeys, a horse and perhaps animals I didn’t see. It is a working farm that supports children’s education and love of animals. Catherine is incredibly hospitable and welcoming. Just a good, nice person. Her team of interns, volunteers and staff are so committed to the animals. Thank you Ophelia, Austin and Maddie Be aware you will be woken by roosters (many roosters) in the morning and you’ll have messy shoes in the evening. This is a no frills location and I liked it that way. Be sure to watch the sunset. Peaceful and relaxing I recommend Catherine’s Hipcamp.
