Shady Owl Ranch is a 17 acre non-profit animal sanctuary with dogs, cats, chickens, guineas, ducks and a turkey named Martha Washington. Owners Chuck and Amanda moved from Northern California and are currently re-establishing their rescue here in Central Ohio. We have two finished studio cabins. They are very close (2 miles) to the town of Mount Vernon, OH with hiking trails on the property. Pets are allowed but there are free range chickens, guineas, ducks, dogs, cats on the property so their safety is priority. We have added a 2 acre fenced in area for dogs off leash. It's our version of a Dog Park. Plenty of bike trails around town and only 20 miles to Mohican State Park. Farm fresh eggs from our rescued chickens and local honey are available for purchase. Money from our vacation rental helps with feeding our rescue animals and expanding our non-profit animal sanctuary.

We can’t wait to return!!
My dogs and I had a blast on shady owl ranch. It was the perfect compromise for us all. The enclosed dog park and on-site trials was such a perk! We didn’t feel the desire to leave the property during our entire stay. It was such a peaceful and lovely place. The cabin was extremely cozy and had everything we needed to go “glamping”. It felt very private but not secluded. We loved being able to interact with all the rescue animals as well. Your lifestyle is an inspiration!

Beautiful, peaceful, relaxing.
Beautiful oasis of tranquility. I sat by the pond, took little walks, built a campfire and slept like a baby. A wonderful restful retreat. Oh, and the eggs are outstanding!

We stayed at the Songbird cabin on the same property and it was amazing! We saw the Conifir and it was just as beautiful. Anything on this property is amazing, beautiful family thank you.
