Cabin in the woods

This cabin was exactly as advertised. Very spacious and so clean. There were eggs, muffins, OJ and milk in the kitchen, which was fully stocked with everything you might need to cook during your stay. The stairs to the bedrooms were a little steep and narrow for an older couple but otherwise perfect for our stay!

Off Grid

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin in the woods. We enjoyed watching the deer and the groundhog. I would however recommend having TV's that have service. We could not watch TV for your stay. There is 1 smart TV that i tried to connect to my service but the internet signal too weak. I would also recommend more lighting. We could not read due to dark and very low lighting. We found it to be dark and dreary. However, the owners were super nice and thoughtful. We were welcomed with the porch light on and snacks on the counter and in the fridge. They called to welcome us and answer any questions and they also called to thank us.I would recommend this cabin in the woods especially if you are looking for off the grid. Thank you for the stay. connect to ky

Cabin on a hill

This is a great place to stay. My wife and I came here for our 38th anniversary and couldn't be more pleased. We love nature and there were deer, squirrels, birds of all kinds and a group of turkeys right in the yard. Would definitely stay here again.

Anniversary Weekend

My wife and I love the Sugarcreek area, and chose The Lodge to spend a long Anniversary weekend. Such a great choice. The hosts Doug and Jen were the best. The Lodge was so peaceful and quiet. Loved the wood burning fireplace on cold late fall nights. If you love nature, a quiet and peaceful location, great Amish food and a fun shopping experience, this place is for you.

Absolute Perfection

Doug was the perfect host. Wonderful to work with, kind, patient and very helpful. Called to welcome us when we arrived. Called to let us know they might be coming to drop something off in the garage, called on our last day to give us information on how to check out. When we had questions he was always there. Location was hard to beat when you need to recharge and de-stress and just plain want to soak in the beauty of God's creation. The view was spectacular as the house sits at the top of the hill. It was great to look out the windows or sit on the rocking chairs, on the front porch, and just take everything in . The rolling hills, the way the different colors on the trees came together, cottages dotting the landscape making it so picture perfect. And, the beautiful chirping of the birds esp in the morning will be hard to forget. This home is very comfortable with a very cozy ambiance, well maintained and very clean and there are many beautiful/intriguing art pieces that you do not typically see in a rental home. They were items that mean a lot to the owner and placed thoughtfully around the home. The one thing I regret was not having the time to sit in front of the WBFP with the fire going and to read a book. Next time I will forego going to the Amish stores and will just enjoy the spectacular home. Needless to say, I truly miss this place.

This was the view from the upstairs bathroom. Would brush my teeth and look out the window and felt like this is what life is all about.

Gem of a cabin for a small family getaway

A great overall cabin experience. Very rustic feel with just enough modern amenities. Nice and quiet property far enough away from others. You’ll feel completely secluded here. And a few nice added touches and friendly helpful hosts make this a must-visit.

About the host

Hosted by Doug McGlumphy and Jennifer Greer

Host profile image
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!
