About this property

The Camp Cabin at Darst-Myers Hallstead

If you're looking for an unplugged camping experience/family farm adventure, we'd love to share our cabin and farm property with you.

Although there is no running water in the cabin itself, the restroom with shower is a short walk (about 50 yards) inside the basement of our farmhouse, with its own private entrance. This restroom is private to your party during your stay.

The cabin sleeps up to six guests, who choose to "rough it" with many comforts, including a queen bed, a futon, and two low twin beds in the loft (accessible only by ladder, not for children under 8). All linens are provided.

Enjoy petting and feeding our goats and sheep. Interact with free-range chickens. Our hens provide eggs guests may cook for their breakfast; guests bring their own side items to make a complete meal. We also provide complimentary snacks and filtered water in a glass dispenser. There is a small refrigerator/freezer combination in the cabin (dorm sized).

If no other events are scheduled during your stay, guests have use of the barn gym with "full court" basketball (two hoops, not full regulation sized), air hockey, foosball, playground balls and other fun activities like indoor swings. The climbing wall is off limits to cabin guests.

We do not have a television in the cabin, and this is a purposeful decision. We have a selection of games, books, and puzzles, and there is much to do on the property itself, which features a small pond near the cabin with a paddle boat, kayak and canoe. In winter months, we have sleds available for the hill.

There is a fire pit right outside the cabin and firewood is provided. There is also a charcoal grill for cooking (bring your own charcoal and lighter fluid). Guests are also welcome to use any other fire rings on the property, including the common area in the backyard of the main house, which includes a gas grill, picnic tables, a hammock, swings, and a playground.

Free parking. Guests may drive along a grass/dirt path to park near the cabin (at your own risk) or park in the gravel area near the goat pasture and make the short walk to the cabin. The property is not handicap accessible and may be over uneven terrain. If needed, we can shuttle on our side-by-side ATV if special arrangements are made ahead of time.

The cabin is on the farm property where we live, but guests have their own private space but are also welcome to explore the farm property as desired. We aim to be responsive to your needs before, during, and after your stay so feel free to text us with concerns, needs, or celebrations!

We hope you enjoy your stay.

This was our 3rd stay at The Camp Cabin - there is something magical about that place! We come to Ohio to visit my family and always say we need to find a place closer … we never even try!! This has become a place of peace, and connecting with each other!! We always laugh at the fact that we would lose it at home with no TV - but it seems to never cross your mind at The Camp Cabin!!

The cabin was very clean and tidy. There were some amenities included, like a mini fridge, microwave, electric skillet. We stayed during a February snow storm and the gas fireplace was more than enough to keep us warm and cozy.

Perfect!

I had some family matters to attend to in Canton and ended up traveling alone with my 4 kids (two 12 year olds and two 10 year olds). This place was perfect! The atmosphere was comfortable and safe. A great place to come back to and unwind. The kids want to stay here every time we visit from now on! The amenities, the environment, the cleanliness, the privacy, everything was amazing. 12/10 recommend!!

Cabin Christmas

My family and I had a wonderful Christmas at the cabin. It was decorated beautifully. We loved walking on the property and enjoyed feeding the goats. The barn was such an added bonus to hang out and play games. We enjoyed our time with the cats too!! Thank you for a memorable Christmas!!

Simply fantastic!

Perfect little getaway that gives you the cabin feel while still being near stores and such. Stayed for 2 nights but wanted to stay longer! Check in was easy. Since it was good weather we were able to park right in front of the cabin. The fire pit was great (we grilled vegetarian sausage and s'mores over the fire)! The hosts were easy to get a hold of if needed. Bathroom facility, while in the basement of the main house, is close, easy to get to, and great! The sheep, goat, and chickens (and super-friendly cats!) only added to the fun. We do plan to go back so just don't book on the days we want :) . 5 stars all the way!

2nd Visit, Perfect little cabin!!!

I love this cabin! And the hosts are great. They respond right away to all questions, and provide everything you need for a cozy stay. The cabin is clean, well appointed, and cozy with a gas fire stove for winter and fans and air-cooler for summer. The property is very nice with a large fire pit on the edge of the small lake with kyaks and trampoline. My daughter (10) and I love it. I have stayed here twice and both visits were fantastic. The bathroom/shower is very nice and just a few steps from the cabin. So reasonable, peaceful, but plenty to do. My daughter loves feeding the goats and visiting the chickens. The cat Shiloh befriended us, too!

Cozy cabin escape

Hartville is our hometown, however we moved to Florida just 4 months ago. Unfortunate events with the loss of a loved one brought us back sooner than expected. We had the whole family (5 month old & two 6 year old boys), and didn’t want to spend our time cooped up in a hotel room when we weren’t attending services/ funeral. I came across this little cabin and it was the perfect escape while in town for a couple of days. The kids were in heaven, and I was able to clear my mind and practice gratitude while being with my family. Everything about our stay at the cabin was perfect!

Just what we needed

We had a wonderful visit. We were looking for a place to stay on our way from the Detroit area to Virginia. The cabin was extremely clean and cozy and my children loved the loft. It was great to have easy going access to the animals from a friendly cat to goats and chickens. The barn provided tons of evening fun even when it was chilly and dark. My teens played the piano and sang while the rest of us played air hockey and basketball or just used the big open space to play floor is lava etc. We loved it.

Rustic

Nice property, very clean cabin. We stayed overnight for a softball tournament. The bathroom was neat and clean but was a little inconvenient not being attached to the cabin. All the pillows were very flat, and need changed out. I would also recommend a divider curtain or something for more privacy when changing. Going to the bathroom to just change clothes was a little annoying. Overall we had a good stay and loved the animals.

Coziest stay we've had to date

My wife and I loved the time we spent in this cabin. It was perfect in the winter, with some snow on the ground. Very scenic. It was well stocked with nice blankets, and the heater did a good job of warming it up after it had been on for a good while. You do have to walk to a separate building for the bathroom, but it's not too far at all.Among its best features are that only is there no wifi and no TV in the cabin, but also that it's cozy and homey enough to make you not want it in the first place. We brought a laptop to possibly watch a movie on, but when we arrived, didn't want to. The cabin itself instead encouraged us to spend our time reading to one another.We look forward to hopefully coming back to stay again with our kids next time. They'll love it.

Perfect little getaway

I stayed at this little cabin only one night and was blown away by all it had to offer. Description matches perfectly! My shoulders instantly relaxed the moment we arrived. Such a peaceful property tucked away in the woods. Beds weren’t the most comfortable I’ve ever slept on but I wasn’t expecting that. I was a bit worried about the short walk to the bathroom but the path was very nicely lit. Bathroom was very nice as well. Definitely book this place if you’re looking for an escape from your every day life.

About the host

Hosted by Donna Hall

We are Donna and Gary Hall, and we live on-site in the farmhouse. This farm has been in the Myers family since 1934 so there's a rich family history here. Donna has lived here since 1990. Our great niece and nephew are the sixth generation to grow up here. We value family-- ours and yours, and the amenities and activities for your farm stay have been designed with families in mind. We hope you enjoy your stay.

Why they chose this property

We find joy in sharing our property with others. We love the laughter of children as they discover new things. The Camp Cabin was built in 2006 for youth and family activities, but we are empty nesters, and it was sitting empty, until a friend urged me to rent it out. We've been offering the cabin for short term rental since 2017. When you come, read others' stories in our Camp Cabin Journal, and write your own as well. Your story matters!

What makes this property unique

Overwhelmingly, the number one adjective guests leave in our book is: PEACEFUL. This place has a peace about it that is hard to describe unless you experience it yourself. We hope you will visit soon.
