Newly transformed farm cottage off the beaten path!

Enjoy this newly transformed one-bedroom cottage located on a family-owned farm on the outskirts of Minford.
We are located within 5 minutes of Rose Valley Animal Park and the White Gravel Mines. For those who enjoy a little drive, there are many state and national parks within an hour.

This cottage has 3 rooms: a bedroom, dinning/kitchen area, and bathroom/closet. The bedroom has a full size bed with a smart tv that you can use with the wifi. We have a full size air mattress that is available upon request. Feel free to enjoy the beauty and sounds of nature from the front porch. There is not an oven or stove but we have provided a hot plate, microwave, toaster, Ninja Foodi, crockpot and keurig; in addition, you may bring a grill. We will also supply farm fresh eggs for you to enjoy.

We also have laundry services available for additional costs.

Guests may walk the farm and look at the animals but please be aware of the white string electric fence on the inner side. We asked that you do not enter any fields or barns for your own safety.

We do live in other houses on the farm and offer contactless check-in and out; however, if there are any questions or necessities needed, we are glad to stop by. Feel free to ask for suggestions on local entertainment, food, and activities.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker, an ironing board, and a desk. Housekeeping is available on request.

Wonderful Little Cottage

This cottage is located in a vibrant area of Ohio, filled with open fields and lovely atmosphere. This location really makes you appreciate nature. Although I will say, watch out for the fog if it rains and you’re driving back late! It was a great stay everything you need in a short term rental. Host was attentive prior to our check in and sent all necessary info. We were on this trip for a wedding about an hour away from the location so it worked just perfectly for the occasion. The farm animals were a fun way to spend the day and entertain. We appreciate all the commodities, a 10/10!

Quiet, peaceful area! The cabin was cute and cozy! The eggs were great, too!

We were in town for a funeral and just needed some quiet for a few days. The cabin was the perfect answer!

This was the perfect place for 2, minus the full bed. It is new, clean, quiet and safe. They have the place stocked with plenty of towels, blankets, snacks, coffee, etc. We’d stay here again if we’re in the area. We enjoyed feeding the goats the first night.
