Quiet Country Retreat w/ Horses, stocked pond & Spa Srv – Near Hocking Hills

A peaceful, country escape near Hocking Hills. Horses, stars, and serenity await.

Serenity Acres Homestead blends the charm of off-grid living with the comforts of home. You'll enjoy modern conveniences like lights, hot water, and appliances—all thoughtfully powered by a combination of propane, solar, and generator energy. While we’re not completely primitive, we proudly step back from the grid without sacrificing your comfort. The Daadi House was built smart: it stays naturally cool on summer days and wraps you in cozy warmth in Ohio winters.

Step back into simpler times at the Daadi House, a lovingly restored Amish-built home nestled on Serenity Acres Homestead — a Christ-centered, working farm in the heart of Vinton County, Ohio. Whether you're seeking rest, reconnection, or rural adventure, this one-of-a-kind retreat offers a stay you’ll never forget.

Experience Homestead Life
Wake up to birds chirping, take a peaceful walk past the horses, or enjoy your morning coffee on the porch as the mist rises from the hills. Guests are welcome to enjoy public areas of Serenity Acres while at the Daadi House— visit the barns, relax near the arena, walk the 3/8-mile track, or settle into a rocker on the front porch.

There is no traditional air conditioning at this time, but the home was built with thick, insulating walls, excellent cross-ventilation, and deep overhangs — all designed to naturally keep it cool and comfortable, even during warm summer months. Most guests find they don’t miss A/C at all!

Inside the Home

Three bedrooms, comfortably sleeping up to six guests and a sofa queen bed for two additional guests.

A fully stocked kitchen with cookware, dishes, and small appliances. As well as a propane refrigerator and small cook stove and grill, while we await delivery of our propane stove as well.

Cozy living space with natural light and peaceful surroundings

Full bathroom with hot water and essential supplies

Free Wi-Fi, with login details posted on the kitchen counter, nightstands, and desk

Fresh linens, towels, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere


Good to Know
This is a quiet, peaceful working farm, and faith-centered homestead. You may hear the occasional sounds of horses, chickens, or friendly chatter from the barn.

The owners live nearby and are available if needed. There is a service dog on site. While his bark may sound protective, he is well-behaved and does not bite.

Come experience life at a gentler pace. Serenity Acres Homestead isn’t just a place to stay — it’s a place to breathe again, connect with the land, and enjoy the simple pleasures of country living.
