Our farm has been in the family for over 50 years. My Cherokee grandmother purchased the farm with the intention of giving each of her children property. We have been raising bison here since 2008. We chose the name Cherokee Valley to honor my heritage and the gift of this farm by my grandmother and mother. We created this tipi experience to share that gift with you! Enjoy a night in our spacious 22 foot tipi. We provide a comfortable queen platform bed for your convenience. You must provide sleeping bags, linens , blankets etc. The tipi can sleep up to 6 people, 2 on the queen bed we provide, with ample room for additional cots or air mattresses that you provide. We have cots available to rent as an add on. . You may also pitch additional tents or hang hammocks in the trees with room for up to 10 people in all. Cherokee Valley Bison Ranch is a working bison farm with bison, honeybees, chickens and peafowl. We are a certified Wildlife Habitat and Monarch Way Station. Enjoy our beautiful hiking trails through the rolling hills of our ranch. We have a plethora of bird species, butterflies and wildflowers to delight nature lovers. After hiking the trails you can splash around in the pristine creek that borders our property (we recommend water shoes). Take in a gorgeous sunset over our farm, enjoy a wood fired dinner cooked over the provided fire pit with grill. The sounds of hoot owls will lull you to sleep and when you wake, enjoy the stained glass glow through the beautiful tipi. We are close to several wineries, breweries and recreational areas (kayaking, canoeing, golfing, biking) as well as Legend Valley concert venue. We are a short drive to Buckeye Lake, Dillion Dam, and Hocking Hills. We have a selection of grass fed bison available in our on-site farm store.

Bison Tipi Retreat

Carie was a great host! The area was very clean and everything was well thought out. She was kind enough to show us the bison up close and explain all about them. Highly reccomend!

Bison Tipi Retreat

Staying on a bison ranch, in a tipi, was such a memorable experience. Carie was so accommodating (even brought us more wood) and took the time to chat with us about the ranch and the herd. This was a girls trip with 3 generations of my family and we all made lasting memories and have talked about coming back. Thank you for opening up your ranch to us!

Bison Tipi Retreat

Highly recommend!

I only stayed one night as I was passing through on a road trip, but I wish I could’ve stayed longer. The area is very scenic and the tipi was comfortable to sleep in. It was so unique to have the tipi with the bison close by to watch. I will definitely stay again if I’m in the area again. This place is truly a hidden gem!
