Green Plains Cabin and Bison Farm

The Space
Located on 66 acres of rolling farmland and wooded countryside, this restored log cabin - built circa 1855 - is rustic but not the least bit primitive. A massive stone fireplace makes relaxing in the winter cozy. Enjoy your morning coffee along with a beautiful view of Ohio farmland from the screened-in porch. Jump into the outdoor shower or hot tub after a day of hiking or shopping in nearby Yellow Springs. Centrally located, the Cabin is just 20 minutes from Dayton and 50 minutes from Columbus.
This 19th century log cabin - original to the property - was dismantled and restored in 1989. Various updates over the years keep the Cabin fresh without compromising its rustic qualities.
Guest Access
The Cabin is located on a working hay farm and home to 40 head of American Bison. Guests may walk the property, enjoy the hot tub located a few yards from the Cabin and fish in the catch-and-release pond. There is a charcoal grill and charcoal provided for outside cooking, an outdoor shower, and a fire pit nearby is a fun place to roast marshmallows and tell stories.
Two bicycles on site are available for guests who want to ride the Ohio to Erie bike trail, which is just a mile from the farm entrance.
Other Things to Note
The Cabin is a homey, comfortable place — nothing fussy, nothing untouchable. We expect you to put your feet up, take a deep breath and relax while you’re there.

A fabulous getaway
My friend and I met in the middle (from Illinois and West Virginia) to have a birthday visit. The area and town of Yellow Springs was perfect. Our host Sarah went way above and beyond expectation in answering all questions and making our little trip a memory we will treasure forever. Thank you Sarah!!!!!

Great place to relax.
Relaxing, peaceful, and picturesque. Amazing cabin furnished with everything we needed. Very close to Yellow Springs and many parks for hiking. Well stocked pond with good sized largemouth. Sarah was very accommodating. We will be booking this place again. Pictures on site don’t do it justice.

Wonderful experience
The listing of this place doesn't do it justice! We were very pleasantly surprised to find an historic cabin that had all of the updated modern amenities--that didn't take away from the historic charm. Clean, comfortable, quiet, great lakeside location--couldn't ask for more--and the host was awesome--very responsive and extremely accommodating and friendly. If you are headed to the area--I would choose this place over any other hotel, inn, or rental that I've seen.

Serenity in beautiful surroundings
From the moment we walked in to the cabin, we were pleasantly overwhelmed with the charm. Arriving later in the evening, the cabin was beautifully lit inside and out. We had such fun exploring all the rooms and the absolute uniqueness of the decor. Waking in the morning to a view of the bison nearby the kitchen window was a thrill!! We very much appreciated the chronicles of the cabin to look through and read the history. Our hosts were very responsive and friendly when we reached out to them for questions and recommendations. We were fortunate to have been at the property on National Bison Day and were invited to join in the event at the ranch. The king bed was very comfortable and all the thoughtful extras throughout the cabin were greatly appreciated. Quietly enjoying coffee in the mornings on the porch overlooking the pond and scenery was the perfect tranquil time we needed.

DO NOT PASS UP AN OPPORTUNITY TO STAY
VINTAGE cabin decorated with a hint toward a Swedish theme, adorned with useful antique furniture and on a property that soothes your landscape palette (including a working bison farm). Throw in the outdoor shower AND hot tub AND fishing pond….really hard to top. Take a hike at John Bryan Statr Park next door

Cabin on the Hill
Unique cabin with fantastic screened in porch, with beautiful view overlooking pond and country landscape. Perfect for enjoying your morning cup of coffee. Modernized rustic interior, complimented with Swedish accents. There is a small herd of bison roaming in a beautiful silvopasture easily viewed on the property. Sarah was great host, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this peaceful property. Thad and Lisa
