Green Plains Cabin
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.
Note from host: Use disposable, aluminum ash trays provided.

Truly a one of a kind gem
Sarah's communication and clarity of information could not have been better. This cabin exceeded our expectations- from the stunning views of the pond and farmland to the special little touches throughout the home. It was the perfect spot to unplug - a quintessential combination of tech (central AC and WiFi) and homespun hospitality. We will definitely be returning! Can't say enough about what a gem this spot is!

We visited the Green Plains Cabin for a four-day weekend in mid-June. The cabin was adorable, with a storybook old-world Swedish theme. The main level had a comfy sitting area, a small kitchen, and a half-bath. The bedroom upstairs seemed to have a queen-size bed (we didn't stay up there), and the basement had a king-sized bed and a full bath. Our host, Sarah, was lovely to work with and responded to our questions promptly. I would definitely recommend a visit.

5 stars for every category
I keep hitting 5 stars and for some reason the 5th on every category disappears? Regardless of that, Sarah met us when we arrived, showed us through the cabin that she so obviously loves..for good reason. We did, too. Every nook and cranny has been pondered and expertly attended to. Every need that a resident might have considered. We came to see the bison and enjoy the hot tub and did neither, but but thoroughly enjoyed the product of what has obviously been a project of love. 5 stars across the board and..Thank you

Great fishing!!
The cabin was lovely with everything we needed but had so much rustic and historical charm. Warm cozy comfortable beds such nice scenery. Sunrise to sunset. We caught several bass very large and healthy and saw catfish carp and many bluegills. Town of Yelliw springs was charming with many shops and restaurants. We will be back!

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!!!!!
