Welcome to our working bison ranch, where a unique experience awaits you. Explore our ranch through walking the paths that meander along the creek and around each bison pasture. As you stroll, discover the serenity of a large pond teeming with fish, dragonflies, butterflies, and amphibians. Visit our onsite store, where you can purchase our high-quality bison meat and unique bison artifacts. Additionally, from May to October, we offer tractor-drawn wagon tours into the pastures, providing an up-close encounter with these majestic animals. Nestled within a few miles of charming small towns boasting independent restaurants and stores, our location offers a perfect blend of rural tranquility and local amenities. For those seeking more extensive shopping options, we are conveniently situated within 15 miles of larger Toledo suburbs, featuring a variety of big-box stores. Our bison enjoy over 55 acres of pasture, benefitting from our commitment to rotational grazing for both pasture and bison health. At our ranch, we prioritize working harmoniously with the land, fostering the return of native flora and fauna to our property. Situated a few miles north of Swanton, our land, once used for standard crops, has undergone a transformation. After five years, we proudly boast an array of accomplishments, including the identification of over 25 different bird species in a single morning, an increase in local native pollinator populations (including the monarch butterfly), and a reduction in soil erosion. Join us on this journey as we invite you to experience the beauty of nature, the magnificence of bison, and the positive impact of sustainable practices on our land.

Beautiful site with room for a solo or family trip. Hosts are super kind and friendly and it’s so cool getting to camp right next to one of the bison pastures

Brent and Stacy were very friendly. They planned some fun music, snacks, and events for the 2024 total solar eclipse weekend and we had a wonderful time. We would definitely come visit again for more tent camping!

Tent 1

Was a quiet, beautiful setting. Stacy and Brent are doing a great job getting up and running. Very hospitable and welcoming. Plenty of wood provided for fire. The bison were awesome to watch throughout the stay.

Amazing property and fantastic host

This was one of the best camping experiences we’ve ever had. Brent and Stacy were two of the kindest and most accommodating hosts we have encountered. Their property is beautiful and the bison tour was informative and exciting to be able to see the bison in such a close and safe proximity. They went out of their way to make sure it was a fun experience for the kids and informative for the adults. A 10 out of 10 and will be visiting again.
