Renovated 1800s Pioneer Cottage

It’s time to disconnect & take a step back in history while enjoying our charming historical cottage with modern-day amenities. Ideally surrounded with 6 acres of land but conveniently located just a mile from Tappan Lake, public hunting, boating access, and miles of trails including the Buckeye Trail.

We enjoy the historical features of the home like the rough Hand Hewn logs, the occasional cut nail, narrow but somewhat steep steps, the bathroom being located on the basement floor vs the master on the upper floor. If it’s not your thing, we get it! For us, it’s all a part of the nostalgia & we wouldn’t change a thing.

If sitting on the front porch in a rocking chair, watching the sunset is more your speed, this will be your haven. You may also decide to enjoy the outdoor entertaining area complete with a hot tub, gas grill, tables and chairs. Additionally, picnic tables are located near the fire pit where you can reminisce, tell stories & of course make s’mores (sticks provided).

We truly appreciate the peace & lack of neighbors at the cottage. We are fortunate to have Lakeside Store located only a few miles away. They have just about everything! We are also just 5 miles to the best ice cream voted in all of Ohio at Deersville General Store, a short drive to Amish Country & other nearby lakes: Piedmont, Clendening, Leesville & Atwood

AWD suggested for winter stays. 

Well behaved, medium sized pets are welcome at the cottage for an extra $25/fee per pet, per night. Maximum of 2 pets.

The Smart TV does run on the WIFI. It's the best internet for the area however it is slow. We take this opportunity to 'Get Away' from technology :) 

The water supply at the cottage is from a private well. The area is known for a slow water supply. We encourage guests to space out showers & washing laundry to avoid any outages. Water would be unusable in the event of a power outage.
