A sweet farm get away

The small house where we stayed was humble, clean, and nicely decorated with great books on the shelves. It was lovely to be by a pasture with wide skies and green rolling hills all around. At night we opened the windows to hear the peepers and farm animals quietly living alongside us. Margot and John were gracious hosts. We loved joining Margot for morning chores and meeting all the animals, especially the dogs.

Best place we have ever stayed!

John and Margot have a jewel of a cabin and are wonderful people. The cabin is cozy, the animals are adorable, and getting to be part of the help even in freezing weather was a treat for me and the family. Couldnt have asked for anything better, it was perfect. If you get the chance do yourself a favor and come visit the ranch!

Cozy trailer in a rural farm setting

A couple of us had a weekend girls trip to Hocking Hills and stayed here. The 2 bedroom place is very cozy and well equipped. The host is charming. We hope to return there on a future visit.

The cabin was perfect for our spring break trip. The hosts showed us around the ranch and even treated us to fresh locally made bread and eggs from their own hens. I would absolutely stay here again!

Wonderful relaxing stay

We had a wonderful, peaceful and relaxing stay. John and Margot were excellent and gracious hosts! My daughter and I chose to help with morning chores so we got to be up close to the animals which was great! They taught us a lot about the animals. The cabin was clean and comfortable. I definitely recommend staying here. We will most certainly stay here again when we are down that way.

Very kind owners

Margot and John were incredibly kind and welcoming. My partner and I stayed over the weekend, and got welcomed with brownies and shown around the farm for chores. Completely optional but completely worth it to see the animals and get to know both of them! We had our car get stuck due to weather at the end of our stay, and they offered us food and helped us move our car. Incredible kindness and we will be back!

Wonderful stay!

My husband, almost 2 year old and I had a great time staying here! The cabin was so clean and very cozy - I was very sad to leave at the end of our trip! It is centrally located and the owners gave us some great recommendations of things to see/do nearby! We loved seeing the animals every day and learning about the farm!

This was EXACTLY what we needed for a place to relax and sleep in between hiking. The ranch is beautiful, Margot and John were absolutely lovely. The kids haven’t stopped talking about getting to see all the animals.

Peaceful Weekend Away

We loved our stay at Homecoming. The property owners John and Margot were lovely! They took us out to see the cattle and showed us around the property. We were also able to assist and watch feeding the animals the morning of our last day. They also left us a sweet treat in the cabin when we arrived. The property is easily accessible on the corner of two main roads and a quiet retreat. We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect; wish we’d been there longer!

The site was beautiful; very homey. The hosts so kind and accommodating. This was our home away from home while we explored hiking hills and my only wish was that we had been able to stay longer! While we were grilling the horses came out and were just on the other side of the fence; the girls had a blast watching the animals and learning about the farm.

Relaxing getaway

Such a sweet, peaceful spot. I loved sitting at the picnic table in the AM with my coffee watching the sun come up over the hill as the mist burned off and the baby goats frolicked in the field. Just as relaxing was the night time cup of tea on the front porch watching the sun set.
