What you get, plainly

The whole preserve, to yourselves

58 acres, one booking at a time. No shared walls, no neighbours.

Sleep that actually resets you

Blackout quiet, real beds, a hot tub under trees instead of a parking lot.

Your real total in two minutes

Live nightly pricing, itemised. Hold your dates free for 24 hours, no card.

Small on purpose

The Art Bungalow is an intimate one-bedroom retreat for two, handcrafted by the same sculptor who built the Lodge. A handmade headboard anchors the bedroom, original work fills the walls, and the whole space is scaled so that nothing competes with the forest outside the window.

For couples and for solitude

Couples use it for slow weekends without a schedule. Solo guests use it for silent retreats, creative work, and nervous system resets. Both get the same thing: a hot tub under the trees, an electric fireplace, a private nature-view balcony, and no one asking anything of them.

Part of the same preserve

The Bungalow sits on the same protected 58 acres as the Lodge, with access to the trails, forest platforms, and meditation areas. Book both spaces together when a group needs a quieter room for two alongside the main house.

House rules, stated plainly

  • Adults-only by intention, not restriction, the preserve stays quiet enough for wildlife to keep living normally.
  • Maximum 18 overnight guests across the whole property.
  • This is a protected nature preserve: stay on marked paths and leave what you find.
  • No smoking inside either space. Fire pit use only in designated areas.
  • Quiet hours after 10pm so the forest stays the loudest thing here.

Before you ask

Questions guests ask first

Do we ever share the property with another booking?

No. One booking at a time. The 58 acres, the trails, the fire pits and the forest platform are yours for the length of your stay.

What does it cost to hold dates?

Nothing. We hold your dates free for 24 hours while you check with everyone else, and no card is needed to ask.

Can we add breathwork, sound baths or a chef dinner?

Yes, and it is the reason most guests book direct. You add sessions while booking and they appear on one itemised total, no vendor chasing.

Is it really adults only?

Yes, by intention. Maximum 18 overnight adults across the whole property, which is what keeps it quiet enough for the wildlife to behave normally.

How far is it from the parks and from Columbus?

One hour from Columbus, and Old Man's Cave, Ash Cave, Conkles Hollow and Rock House are all within 15 miles.
