Beautiful Cabin Retreat

This weekend at the cabin far exceeded our expectations. Secluded and surrounded by nature's beauty - you could almost feel the history of the land. It is very difficult to find such a lovely, well-maintained, and beautifully decorated cabin, especially with a wood-burning fireplace. The hosts went above and beyond to provide food and snacks - which were not only a pleasant surprise they were thoughtfully prepared and excellent choices. The hosts made certain we were comfortable and had no questions. It was a pleasure to have that personalized service. Check-in and check-out were a dream. The cabin was immaculately clean and no detail was overlooked to attend to our comfort and enjoyment. Our stay here was without a doubt, in a word, exceptional.

Beautiful

Everything was so relaxing. Was amazed at the welcoming hospitality fruit, cereal, fresh eggs, juice, and milk. Scenery is beyond beautiful! Would recommend to anyone looking for quiet, peaceful, nature. Seen deer and turkeys. Would recommend bringing lawn chairs for the fire pit. The set up is great and authentic but kind of uncomfortable. Would definitely come back!

Absolutely glorious

The property was everything I'd hoped for and more. As we were driving up the driveway, we just said wow! They said it was secluded and it certainly was. I believe I saw two cars go by for the two days that we stayed there. The hosts were so generous. They left us farm fresh eggs, local milk and butter, fruits, cereals, coffee, muffins and more. They called us at the house when we arrived. They said if we need anything at all just contact them. It was too bad we couldn't see the total eclipse from there, I'm sure we wouldn't have left the place Highly recommend the place if you're looking for seclusion.

About the host

Hosted by Doug McGlumphy and Jennifer Greer

Doug McGlumphy and Jennifer Greer have been married for 30 years and enjoy working and developing our family farm. Doug works as an artist and educator while Jennifer works as an academic advisor. Both enjoy raising their two sons and passing on the property's history to the next generation.

Why they chose this property

Our cabin is located on 300 acres of rolling farmland in the Stucky Valley, of Tuscarawas County, Ohio. Originally settled in the 1830's by the Moomaw family, the farm was purchased in 1903 by Doug's great-grandparents, German farmers, Jacob and Emma Hisrich. It has remained in our family for over 110 years.

The farm subsequently passed down to Doug's grandparents, Laura and Vernon Hisrich who lived, raised a family and farmed the property for many decades. After their deaths the main house, outbuildings and land remained underutilized for many years and fell into decline until we purchased them, along with Doug's parents, Ed and Pat (Hisrich) McGlumphy in 1997.

In addition to the built environment, the farm consists of approximately 50% tillable land and 50% woods. In an effort to preserve the property as farmland, a local farmer uses the fields to plant crops for his dairy farm. The remainder acts as a bird sanctuary, as well as habitat for local wildlife.

We enjoy our farm and its family history and invite you to come and enjoy its peacefulness and tranquility with us. It is a labor of love and continues to be an ever-evolving endeavor. There is always something new to look at with each subsequent visit as we always have a new project in the works.

What makes this property unique

The property also includes an 1870s farmhouse (VRBO 2131667) and a 1825 historic log house (VRBO 489786) available for rental through VRBO. If rented together all houses offer a great opportunity for extended family or friends to vacation with each other while maintaining social distancing but enjoying the great outdoors.

The cabin and rural setting offers a truly unique experience for couples, families or friends to get away and relax. We even have a baseball field, hiking trails and an art gallery nearby. Come and enjoy!
