***Fall Special! We are all about the cozy vibes here at the homestead - especially in the fall when the leaves around the glamping cabins start to change! We are running a special on our glamping cabins - the fee has been reduced from $150 to $100 (and even less on weekdays!) and will include a s'mores board! Heartland Homestead is the perfect spot for you to enjoy a weekend away from home and in nature. With dreamy vibes and open skies, you can relax in our tent camping spots around Mother Oak or reserve a glamping cabin for a true unplugged experience - but make it comfy cozy. Depending on the time of year + season, you may see our goats, cows, pigs, chickens, or more! We may have pick-your-own tomatoes, pumpkins, + flowers as well. Glamping Cabins We have two glamping cabins that include beds and lanterns so you get the feel of sleeping in nature but comfortably. Each cabin has a picnic table, fire pit, and charcoal grill. One cabin has a queen-size bed and the second has a full-size bed and a trundle bed with 2 twin-size mattresses. The cabins do not have electric or water. A porta-potty is located near the barn (a 5 minute walk) and a lug-able loo or portapotty will be available closer to the cabins depending on when you stay. We are happy to help get your gear back to the cabins with the farm cart and then it is an 8-minute walk along a hay pasture to the parking area. Tent Camping Our tent camping spots are located under Mother Oak, a 100-year-old oak tree in the middle of our farm. With ample shade, a fire pit, and nearby portapotty, you can relax under the stars into the night. Hiking trails weave through the back of the property and you are welcome to explore those as well. Because we are a working homestead and farm, a few things are true: -Sometimes there’s mud. We suggest boots for walking around the property and in the woods. -Our farm animals are great - and may also bite. Please do not pet or chase them. We are happy to arrange opportunities to interact with the animals. Just ask! -Not always, but at times, our neighbors will start farming early in the morning and you can hear their machinery. All of our sites have privacy but are not truly remote. We want you to enjoy yourselves but please be mindful that our house is on the property as well as our neighbors. Music needs to be turned down to a low level by 11 PM. We can accommodate pop-up campers, camper vans, etc near Mother Oak as well. Please message with any questions before reserving. Additional fees would apply. We can also accommodate larger tent camping groups depending on the day. Additional fees would apply. The homestead is located near 58 so you can hear cars during the day and night. The cabins are about a ½ mile from the road so the noise is greatly reduced. Want to add on a farm-fresh breakfast? We do that! Our breakfast package features eggs from our chickens, breakfast sausage from our pigs, and bread baked just for you. At times, we also have beef burgers and sausage available. We can also offer charcuterie + smores boards during your stay. Firewood is available for purchase or you can gather dried wood from the woods around the cabins. Cast iron, coffee percolators, games, and more are available to use for your stay as well. We regularly host modern homesteading workshops, full moon yoga, and sound baths at the farm. If you would like to inquire about booking one of these as an add-on to your stay, please message us! Conveniently located 1 mile from Oberlin College, 6 minutes from the turnpike (I-80), and 35 minutes from Cleveland, Heartland Homestead is like stepping away from the hustle of everyday life and into nature. Rural enough to feel like you've gotten away from suburbia but close enough for DoorDash, last-minute store runs, + all the yummy restaurants in Oberlin, we hope you enjoy stepping into our modern homestead as much as we enjoy hosting you!

Mother Oak Campsite

We loved camping at Sarah's farm! Great location, her directions were clear and easy to follow. They also included a few amenities not listed like firewood. The campsite was great and we enjoyed the space. There are cows right next to the site, so if you have reactive pets that might be something worth considering.

Mother Oak Campsite

Great site with kind hosts

The hosts are kind and quick to respond to questions. Pretty warm in the summer mornings, but plenty of shade in the afternoon. This is a great site and I plan to return again when the weather cools down a bit.

Glamping Cabin #1

Heartland is peaceful as can be! Lovely and clean, hosts were sweet and welcoming. They let me borrow their golf cart to take my things across the field to the cabin. My dog loved it!

Mother Oak Campsite

Ten out of ten, would stay again!

I have been to many Hipcamp sites and this one was the best kept and most welcoming place we have been to. We were traveling with toddlers and dogs and planned to stay at a Mother Oak (which had an epic fire pit and plenty of good tent spots), but due to thunderstorms we decided to upgrade to a cabin. It was perfect and cozy and the bedding was provided so we had to unpack very little. The farm breakfast comes highly recommended from our whole crew and we topped it off with a trail walk in the woods to end our stay.
