Earth Song Farm is an organic, bio-dynamic farm growing a variety of produce, chicken, eggs and more. We are also a teaching center and a host farm for volunteers looking to experience homesteading, off-grid living, organic growing and hydroponic techniques. Discovery Park provides a creative free-play setting for kids to learn, discover and grow. A naturopathic wellness center at the farm offers health assessment, iris analysis and botanical herbs to help people dealing with health issues. Learn more about this land: Nestled within the 10-acre organic farm that hosts Earthsong Farm and Discovery Park is an authentic American Indian tipi camping experience.   An extra large  party tipi ("Great Gatherings") is available for larger groups as a daytime rental or for overnight stays (up to 18 people).  This tipi is on a woodchip base for a more primitive authentic experience and has optional cots and chairs for your use.   In the fenced Tipi Village compound area there is a large Tipi on a wooden deck, a small play tipi  for kids and 2 more tipis under construction.  The Tipi is adorned with native American Indian decor and furnished with one queen size bed, bedside table and camp chair.  Optional cots available, offering sleep accommodations for a total of 5 -6 people.   Tipi Village is equipped with a shared outdoor kitchen and dining area, including a gas barbeque grill and fresh spring water.  There is also an instant-heat outdoor shower available.   A family-friendly fire pit with surrounding seating is a centralized spot for drum circles, late night marshmallows, and evening conversations.  At night you'll see fireflies and hear plenty of crickets, bullfrogs and singing tree frogs.  During the day, a special archery area offers targets and tomahawk throwing.  You've always wanted to try a bow and tomahawk! Just outside the Tipi Village fence awaits "Discovery Park" for the kids... the "Best Playground Ever!"  The park includes kid powered train cars, gem mining, dual zip lines, a real fire truck, woods to explore, a shallow lagoon to take a raft across and much more. Look up DiscoveryParkOhio to see more details. Schedule a tour of the farm to see the animals, greenhouses and an off-grid EarthShip.  A walk through the old-growth forest brings a quiet sense of peace and a genuine earthing connection.  An old-fashioned General Store offers seasonal organic produce, herbal tinctures and teas, bulk foods, goat milk soap, honey, maple syrup, jams, wooden toys, free-range chickens and eggs, plus much more.   Down the road, complimenting the experience of Tipi Village, is the Log Cabin Shop: a muzzle-loading, early American craft & used bookstore.

Best way to camp with kids
Such a cool entrepreneur! This was probably the BEST place I could have gone to try to camp by myself with three little kids (all under 5). We had the tipi village to ourselves, and having the farm animals and Discovery Park nearby made it so NOT stressful and rather fun and pleasant. Even when it started pouring rain, we were able to go in the barn and feed the animals, then go in the house and see the baby chicks! At the time we were there, the shower wasn't yet working and there was not potable water. There was also just a little bit of rain that came inside the tent, but since we were all elevated it didn't make any difference. I definitely want to go back.

Good camping near Cuyahoga NP
Owner Stephen was friendly and accommodating, tipis were nice, fire pit was perfect, the guests in the other tipi were awesome and we enjoyed their company. Portajon was sufficient but not award-winning, and while it was cool that Stephen owned chickens, they were a little too interested in our fire pit food than I would have preferred. But they still were entertaining. Stephen and his wife joined us at the fire in the evening for a pleasant visit. If you like meeting new people, and don’t mind a friendly “commune” vibe, check it out.

Playful, Natural, Fun!
This was, hands-down, one of the coolest & most joyful places we've ever stayed! The tipis are spacious, comfortable & exquisite (hand-painted by Steve's wife) - and Discovery Park was SO FUN for us adults and our 4 kiddos! If you're looking for a creative, natural setting to connect with animals (friendly goats & chickens) and maybe even get in touch with your inner child again, we highly recommend!

I loved everything about that place from tipi tents, farm, green house and discovery park. Kids had blast in the discovery park and would def come back again.

This was such a cute unique place to stay. My friend and I were searching for somewhere to stay while we hiked Cuyahoga National Park and the tipi village was perfect. I would definitely return, epspecially if we had a group of family or friends to stay at both tipi sites. Unfortunately, most of our time there was spent hiking so we didn't get a chance to explore or relax at the site. Though, the time we did get to spend there was nice. As for Stephen, he was super friendly and kind. His wife also did such an amazing job with her artwork on the Tipis!

Camping with Discovery Park
This was an incredibly gem for our family of 4. We have two girls, a 2 yo and a 4 yo and they absolutely loved the teepees, the park and the animals. We could have stayed for days! Steve and Cindy are so warm and friendly, we enjoyed talking to them and getting a tour of their grounds. They are extraordinarily talented and have created everything by hand. Such a special experience.

Down to earth adventure camping
Our whole family loved staying on the Earthsong farm. The whole place: Tipi village, Farm Store and Discovery park is just wonderful. The kids loved to roam freely on the Discovery playground and connecting with the animals; especially after hours. The farm store is full of holistic, handmade and yummy items! Stephen and Cindy are a gem!

Tipi’s: Great Camping Experience
Camping in the Tipi Village was such a nice experience. The playground next door kept the kids busy for hours. And because the Tipi’s are on the farm, Stephen showed us what/how to feed the goats. There were chickens roaming freely. Stephen was very attentive the entire time. He checked in with us to make sure everything was going well. He also gave us some fresh eggs to use for breakfast and let the kids pick their own blueberries. The Tipi’s are big. We had 5 sleeping in ours (3 adults and 2 kids). I think it would be fun to get a group of friends together and rent out all 3 Tipi’s. There is plenty of firewood too! The toilet is a port-a-potty. And the sink does not have running water but we brought plenty of our own and there is fresh spring water provided.

Unique Experience
The playground was really well done. My son loved the kid powered train cars and seeing the chickens and the goats. The camp set up was really nice with the grill, fire ring, and free wood!

Unique
This was such a unique experience. My kids loved the discovery playground. Stephen and Cindy were very nice and even let my kids help feed the chickens and goats. My son loved playing nerf guns with his dad in the woods.

Unique and private retreat
This is a fairly large and private space with a great bonfire circle and covered eating area. The teepee is large - enough for our family of 4, plus extra space. The kids loved riding the trains at the kids’ play area next door and visiting the goats. On a clear night, the stars would be amazing here - however it was thunderstorms for us! It needs maybe one additional tarp to cover the bed to prevent drips. We loved that this is part of an organic farm and the farm store is full of goodies usually only found at Whole Foods or speciality organic stores.

Camping was a nice experience on the teepee site. The land was beautiful and well cared for and teepees were clean and comfortable. Fire pit was fantastic with plenty of wood available. I would call the accommodations quite primitive and was happy to have brought full camping accommodations. I'm not certain why dogs wouldn't be allowed here, it seems like they would do well.

Camping with a twist
Earthsong Farm is a lovely property and Stephen is a warm and thoughtful host. There are wonderful amenities especially for families. Staying overnight in the Tipi was very fun. There is a lot for children and parents to enjoy and many new activities being added all the time. Tipi village has a nice firepit and grill. I would highly recommend staying overnight with a group. It is a short drive to Medina which is a good day trip if you stay several days.
