We have been raising our family & Grassfed Angus Beef here since 1984.Our cabin is $20 per person per night, but we have a minimum of 2 persons per night.  This means that the fee for a single person is $40 per night, (a single person must make the reservation for 2 people).  During fall deer hunting season, there is a minimum of 3 persons per nite, or $60 per night. Our secluded one room rustic cabin is in a grove of trees looking over our 1/2 acre bluegill & bass pond.  It is well off the road in the Appalachian SE part of Ohio, and surrounded by the rolling hills of our grassfed cattle pasture.  We consider it rustic or primitive because there is a wooden outhouse & no electricity and no WiFi and poor cell service.  Expect to see chipmunks, squirrels, plenty of mice, and even deer.  After all, the cabin is in the woods surrounded by our cow pasture.  Please do not expect motel type conditions.  Please clean up after yourselves, just as you would do on a camping trip.  This is not a modern cabin with conveniences, it is a rough cabin in which you are camping out under a roof.  There is low pressure gravity flow running hot and cold water for shower and kitchen sink, but after freezing weather arrives in November, we have to shut off the water to avoid freezing pipes, and THERE WILL BE NO RUNNING WATER. Our farm is bordered by 5000 acres of The State of Ohio's mostly wooded Wolf Creek Wildlife Area open to public access.  Burr Oak State Park is 8 miles away, with boating, fishing, hiking and restaurant. The long distance Buckeye Trail passes through our farm. We frequently see deer, turkeys & over 120 species of birds on the farm. Nearby Chesterhill has Triple Nickle Restaurant offering our grassfed burgers & food from other local farmers.   McConnelsville is 11 miles away with restaurants, movies, grocery stores, etc. Fresh frozen grass-fed beef available for sale at our on-farm store. Steaks, roasts, ground beef, and other cuts. Also 13 kinds of Marjie's homemade jams & jellies & homemade apple sauce & apple butter.

Great stop on the Buckeye Trail
We based ourselves here for some section hiking on the Stockport and N Straitsville sections of the BT. Perfect location, right on the BT when you walk out the door. Rustic for sure, but great spot to stay without spending a ton of money or pitching a tent.

Good cabin with a few concerns.
So, the cabin itself was very cute and within a really quaint area. The inside was clean and inviting, and the surrounding nature was wonderful as well. A few gripes, though. 1.) finding the cabin wasn’t easy. While we did arrive at night, and that made it harder, there weren’t any markers to make it easier, even if we’d arrived during the day. The pictures don’t do enough justice to help locate it, unfortunately. So before you go, I recommend asking them well ahead of time for specifics and markers. The instructions they have currently work for some, but not all. And there’s no guarantee that people traveling through will always be able to arrive before the sun goes down. 2.) the outhouse isn’t really somewhere you want to do your “business”. Too many flies coming out from inside of the toilet and idk about y’all, but having them crawl on my nether regions is an unpleasant feeling when you’re trying to sit on the toilet. 3.) lastly, the out of date brochures in the cabin. I don’t personally care too much about this, but as someone who’s never camped/glamped in this area, if I wanted information on things nearby, etc. I’m not sure the information in there would’ve done me much justice.

This was our first vacation in 4 years. 2 days isnt much but its what we had. We were really disappointed to find the place smelling of mold and the whole bottom of the sink cabinet covered in black mold. I have a severe allergy to it. So we made the best and slept outside. Again trying to be grateful. The farm itself was lovely. And we bought some of the jams and beef steaks from the farmer. Which were truly delicious. Our last night there we har made a huge dinner. Ans were sitting out on the back porch. Enjoying the quite and solitude. Our girls were changing into their pjs when our of the blue the owner came with her dog and a truck pulling up. My girls and son were understanably upset rushing around trying to get dresses. And my husband and I had to abandone our dinner. The owner decided right then and there was the time to get an estimate to fix 2 broken windows. Now I do understand workman have their own schedules. But we were out of the cabin for 6 hours that day. Ans my girls were changing. We had no warning to permission asked. They all barged in. And the owners dog came and urinated on my clothes. It really left a bas feeling. This was our

We had a great time!
This place was wonderful, out in the middle of nowhere. If there's a bad review they didn't read the whole ad ahead of time. Directions were accurate as well. We brought our generator and had an amazing time for my boyfriends birthday. Steaks were amazing!! And so is the apple butter /jams! About an hour from hocking hills and roughly 40 from Athens. and tons of awesome things to do inbetween! There's an outhouse and it's as clean as outhouses get, but Watch for spiders ! The shower inside was helpful after hiking all day! Hot OR cold water. Not both. Be prepared. It was hot out so the cold shower was refreshing! We brought a foam mattress topper and slept in the main room downstairs as it was cooler. This is like camping, but with a shelter. Went fishing& got a smaller sized bass in the pond. We released it, maybe you'll catch the same one :) tons of frogs, and wow the fireflies were gorgeous and everywhere !! Minimal light pollution so can see stars well. We were lucky to see some shooting stars ! BRING WATER& LIGHTS! (no candles as owner requested) helpful tip, pinesol helps keep the flies away. I left some for the next visitors. Just wipe around the door/window frames with a rag and they will stay away. After all it's a cow farm, expect flies and outdoor critters. Also Pete and Marjie are awesome people! And their dog is the cutest! Don't be afraid to say hi :) We'll be back. :)
