We enjoyed our stay. Everything was great. The bed was a little springy which made for a restless night but the farm was wonderful

Hello Amanda, Thanks so much for your review. If you slept in one of the kids beds, they are a little on the springy side because they are typically meant for kids. So glad you enjoyed your stay and visiting the farm animals!! We hope to see you again one day!!

Great Place to Stay

This is a great, peaceful place to stay at. Cabin is as described, the property is very pretty and the pups enjoyed the stay as well. Had nice walking areas to take the pups for the walk and they enjoyed seeing the other animals in the petting zoo. We were not able to take advantage of the other amenities like the breakfast or the massages but maybe next time I am up shooting at the Cardinal Center. So we would stay here again.

Sweet Farm in Ohio

We had such a wonderful time while on the farm! We all fell in love with all of the animals, they are all so special. My husband and son had a great time fishing at the pond, which is located on the property. We also looked forward each day to throwing Boomer (one of the dogs) his ball and getting sweet kisses from Blue (the other dog on the farm). All animals are so sweet and this is really a beautiful farm. The cottage was wonderful, as well! We hope to visit again soon!

Went here with my family for Christmas and the animals were not out and everything in the cabin description was false. The place was not nearly as big. And the “many” board games equaled to 2. Not a great experience.

Hello Nicole, We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and the critters. I'm sorry the cabin suite was smaller than you expected. We try to give a clear description that this is suite is suitable for only for 2 adults and 3 children. I believe your party had 4 adults if I'm not mistaken. Next time you come for a visit with a larger group, you may want to reserve our Lodge Loft suite if you have more than 3 adults. The Lodge Loft suite has 6 queen beds and is very roomy and cozy! It does cost more than the Tranquility Suite, but I'm sure it would far exceed your expectations. Thanks so much for staying with us and we look forward to your return visit!

Nice setting, very clean. There are a lot of rules for a vacation resort, signs on everything of what not to do. Examples: No food on furniture, Jet tub did not operate properly. Family seating in living room was a love seat for two in a cabin for family of 4. White towels but if soiled you would be charged to replaced, good thing we didn't bring kids they may have worn their shoes inside which is another posted no-no. Thermal heat for the three suites so you have no control over room temp and you can only use the gas fireplace durning winter and are to only use their settings. Windows are not to be opened on listed rules but was told by owner it could be opened when they stopped by to inspected our cabin after our first night there. Make sure your back before dark because listed rule is not to leave any lights on when you leave to help keep the electric bill low. May not be the place for honeymooners due to being required to sign a form not to use lotions or leave bodily fluids on bedding or be charged. 😂

About the host

Hosted by Laurie Mooney

Host profile image
In April of 2017, the present owners, Laurie and Jim Mooney, decided to purchase Heartland Country Resort & Lodge as their “retirement” business for whenever they actually decide to retire. It was the second time they had considered purchasing Heartland and decided this was the right time to embark upon the realm of resort ownership. Together, the couple with their almost 20 years of business ownership experience and customer service, are taking the resort to a whole new level so it can continue to be a special place for others to experience and fall in love with just as they did.

Why they chose this property

There is just something so peaceful, magical and relaxing about Heartland Country Resort, it's next to impossible to put it into words. One thing is for sure, once you are here, you won't want to leave!

What makes this property unique

On site petting zoo with farm animals, swimming and fishing pond, large picnic pavilion, outdoor fire pit, gas grill, quiet and peaceful location.
