About this property
Nature-Quiet Retreat • Firepit + BBQ • PetFriendly
Highlights that make this the ideal family or friend group spot:
~Pet-friendly throughout, with a big private yard for dogs to run, play, and explore freely
~Outdoor family perks: Private firepit with Adirondack chairs for marshmallow roasting and starry chats, outdoor grill for BBQs, wide front porch for morning coffee or group hangouts with countryside views, ample parking (even for trailers or extra vehicles), and a spacious backyard for games or pet play.
~Electric fireplace in the warm, inviting living room — gather for cozy evenings, board games, movies on the Roku Smart TV, or sharing stories and laughs with the whole crew.
~Sleeps 7 comfortably across three cozy queen bedrooms (downstairs primary for privacy or grandparents, two upstairs with dressers/closets) plus a full pull-out couch in the living room — flexible for families with kids, extra guests, or group sleeping setups.
~One full bathroom with a relaxing tub/shower combo, fresh towels, and plenty of hot water — easy for everyone after a day out.
~Fully stocked kitchen for group meals, baking treats, trail lunches, or dinners around the big farmhouse table (perfect for family-style eating or puzzles).
~Fun bonding extras: Board games galore for endless playtime, Roku Smart TV for streaming family movie nights, and the historic charm that sparks connection and memories.
~Strong, reliable Wi-Fi across the farmhouse — perfect for group streaming on the Roku Smart TV, puzzle apps on tablets, or sharing spring hike memories online.
Nestled in quiet countryside peace, this 1100 sq ft entire-home retreat offers the ultimate secluded family retreat near Lake Hope State Park and Hocking Hills State Park. As spring brings blooming wildflowers, flowing waterfalls, and lush green trails, unplug from the daily grind, reconnect with friends and family, and embrace the season — from easy family hikes at Ash Cave (stroller-friendly with a stunning cave and waterfall), Cedar Falls (powerful cascades), or Old Man's Cave (fun rock explorations and bridges) to picnics by streams or visits to nearby Moonville Tunnel for light adventures. Then return for dinner on the BBQ grill and firepit evenings, porch relaxation, yard games with pets, or simply unwinding together. Whether adventuring on Hocking Hills family trails, gathering for meals and games, or enjoying the historic vibe as a group — Shea Farmhouse is your private family and friend group sanctuary in this magical region.
Book the entire pet-friendly Hocking Hills house today and bring your crew (kids, friends, pups, and all!) for the refreshing Hocking Hills family getaway you've been dreaming of. Your spring escape awaits — let the season feel like pure magic! 🌸🔥🏡
We can't wait to welcome your group to Shea Farmhouse!
