Cherokee Valley Bison Ranch Creekside Retreat

2 nights at Cherokee Valley Bison Ranch Creekside Retreat

We had an amazing time here! The bison tipi was perfect for us and our dogs. The bison tipi had the perfect set up for hammocks to sit back and relax. I would highly recommend this location. It also allows for a good amount of privacy from the other campers. Thank you for the stay!

Weekend Trip to Dogwood Cabin

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cabin is excellent and the property is beautiful! Very nice time in the woods!

Weekend Trip to Birdhouse Farm Camp And Cabin

I highly recommend staying with Jennifer !! The Pond Side Cabin was absolutely beautiful and lovely. The hosts were very courteous and hospitable. The campsite itself was very private, and the versatility of being able to open/close the side of the cabin allowed for very fun and immersive nights. The food Jennifer cooked for us was professional grade and knocked out any expectations I could have had out of the park. Overall I highly recommend this campsite and I will be returning!

1 night at Cherokee Valley Bison Ranch Creekside Retreat

We loved our visit so much!!!! I can’t even find the accurate words to describe our time at Cherokee Valley Bison Ranch Creekside Retreat! The bison were majestic, Carie was wonderful, and it felt great being in sync with nature.

4 nights at WALKAbOUT Creek Campground

We had a great experience staying at Bear Cabin! We had to find something semi last minute in the area, and this was such a hidden gem! Far enough away from town to feel like you are in the middle of the woods but close enough that you don't have to drive too far for groceries. Cabin was very clean and beds were very comfortable. Area around the cabin was very spacious and we had plenty of room for the kids to run around. Walkabout also had numerous things that anyone can use, including an arcade, to keep us busy no matter the weather. The only downside was not being able to drive up to the cabin, however they did provide a wagon they we could use to take trips back and forth. Would highly recommend and would stay here again!

2 nights at Cherokee Valley Bison Ranch Creekside Retreat

A beautiful setting and a wonderful setup! Carie is a great and responsive host, and she and her husband have created a lovely retreat. The tipis are spacious and so well maintained. There’s a fire pit and picnic table, and she included some basics for cooking. And the sights and sounds of the ranch are delightful! Low grunts from the bison, silly calls from the peacocks, and all sorts of birds and other wildlife. Highly recommend staying here!

Weekend Trip to Geo-dome Glamping

So many wonderful things at the Geo dome! Susan’s land is awesome with all the farm animals, easy to commute through the camp! The Geo dome was super clean and fully stocked with everything that was advertised! Her husband was so awesome with our son explaining the farm and what they do! Easy couple to talk to as well! Fun park three minutes down the road also that Jeff recommended. We took our cornhole set and a football to toss in the open field net to camp! It was just a fun and educational experience all around! I highly recommend staying here!!! We will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Woody Acres

This was a really great experience. The cabin we stayed at had a king size bed, was clean, had a very cute design, a little garden outside and a fire pit. I paid extra for the fire wood and it was ready for us when we got there. Katherine and her partner were really good hosts and were really friendly to us. I would recommend this 100% and plan on coming back, myself.

Weekend Trip to Pop's Place Camping

The owners were amazing! They loved seeing the kids running around and playing! The cabin was great! The other campers were also amazing!

Weekend Trip to Cherokee Valley Bison Ranch Creekside Retreat

We had never camped with our baby (or at all!) and Carie’s tipis were the best introduction to camping. She was super responsive, friendly, and answered all of our (many) questions about the bison and the farm. Campsites were so peaceful and well kept. Carie had thought of everything with supplies, which made the night a breeze. Loved it! We’ll be back, with friends!

Weekend Trip to Geo-dome Glamping

We loved our stay in the dome! It was a perfect set-up for our first camping trip with our two month old son! Amazing hosts who go above and beyond. We enjoyed all the amenities- eggs & coffee for breakfast! The heaters were great for a chilly night and kept us warm. I would definitely come back! Thankful for the memories that we made here :-)

Weekend Trip to Near/Far Cabin and Campground

This is my second time staying at this cabin with friends and easily my favorite :) It has everything you need from a grill, coffee machine, yoga mat, to an outdoor shower. I love all the personal touches in the cabin too and was pleasantly surprised with a little vase + plant on the table :) you can tell they put a lot into this cabin and love it very much! Will continue visiting in the near future.

Weekend Trip to Cherokee Valley Bison Ranch Creekside Retreat

Got away from the city for the night and ended up here in Thornville, OH, 10 minutes away from Buckeye Lake. Stayed at this working bison ranch in their White Tail Tipi and it was a relaxing stay. The farm was scenic and the bison burgers were delicious. Carrie was a great host and everything was at the camp that you would need to be comfortable. Recommend this for anyone looking to get away from their normally busy lives & needs relaxation/peace. Can’t wait to stay again!

Our farm has been in the family for over 50 years. My Cherokee Grandmother purchased the farm with the intention of giving each of her children property. We have been raising bison here since 2008. We chose the name Cherokee Valley to honor my heritage and the gift of this farm by my grandmother and mother. We created this tipi experience to share that gift with you! Enjoy a night in our spacious 22 foot tipi. We provide a comfortable queen platform bed for your convenience. You must provide sleeping bags, linens , blankets etc. The tipi can sleep up to 6 people, 2 on the queen bed we provide, with ample room for additional cots or air mattresses that you provide. We have cots available to rent as an add on. . You may also pitch additional tents or hang hammocks in the trees with room for up to 10 people in all. Cherokee Valley Bison Ranch is a working bison farm with bison, honeybees, chickens and peafowl. We are a certified Wildlife Habitat and Monarch Way Station. Enjoy our beautiful hiking trails through the rolling hills of our ranch. We have a plethora of bird species, butterflies and wildflowers to delight nature lovers. After hiking the trails you can splash around in the pristine creek that borders our property (we recommend water shoes).
