Cabin on the Hill at Laurel Springs Farm, Laurel Run Canyon, Hocking Hills

About Brenda & Eric Schmidt

Laurel Springs Farm is a 67-acre family farm found near Laurelville, Ohio in the Hocking Hills owned by Eric and Brenda Schmidt. After a fraudulent business merger that resulted in us losing everything but this land, we decided to try our hand at farming. While challenging in many ways, the work is very rewarding and there are always new things to see, do and learn. We feel blessed that we had this beautiful land to sculpt into our own, have a place for family to visit away from the city and consider the work our exercise which is great for our health! We are proud parents of 5 grown children and a growing number of grandchildren. Our family inspires us to try to live a more sustainable lifestyle. We strive to practice sustainable agriculture, promoting the improvement of our whole environment.

Why Brenda & Eric Schmidt chose Hocking County

Unique 67-acre farm surrounding the cabin with hills, a pond, a forest and an amazing view from the top of "the big hill" with unbelievable sunsets views during summer.

What makes this Cabin unique

Secluded, yet close to Hocking Hills Parks and local amenities and adventures. Several acres out of the 67-acre farm are available for you to roam, including access to Lance's Pond and the fishing shack where you will find fishing poles and basic tackle for catch and release fishing. Ask about our seasonal offerings including blueberries, blackberries, chestnuts and other fruits from our orchard and even flowers are available with separate arrangements. Perfect for newlyweds, anniversaries, birthday celebrations and other special occasions and we very much appreciate the part we get to play in such beautiful memories.
