Boxwood House: Luxury FarmStay & Animal Encounters

An hour east of Cincinnati & southwest of Columbus Minutes from Rocky Fork Lake A world away from everything. Come visit a farm in Amish country, where the grass is greener, coffee is smoother and the stars shine brighter; a place where you can catch a few fish and your breath. Close to adventure, yet quietly tucked away on a 82-acre picturesque farm, Boxwood House is a quiet retreat from a noisy world - the perfect place to slow down, re-connect & create treasured memories. The space Boxwood House sleeps ten in a spacious primary bedroom (king), a cheery sunroom (queen sofa bed), two upstairs bedrooms (one queen and one room with two full beds) and a cozy library (queen sofa bed). You’ll have access to 57 beautiful acres, including hiking trails through woods and pastures and across creeks, fishing in a stocked pond (catch and release only please) and sipping your morning coffee overlooking green pastures or beside a misty pond. Visit with our jersey cows, Dolly and Daisy, and take pictures with our two adorable valais blacknose sheep, a unique breed from the mountains of Switzerland. Reach out to book hayrides and learning experiences such as making maple syrup from freshly tapped trees, foraging tours, gardening and bread-making classes, wreath-making or floral workshops & participating in old-fashioned farm chores.

Other things to note We are in the country and, while the internet has good speed (usually between 30 and 150 mbps), sometimes phone connections via the internet can be an issue. We find this can be an opportunity to disconnect from technology and better connect with yourself, family and friends.
