This elevated shack overlooks a pond and is conveniently located within walking distance of Cowan Lake. The road is a nice place to go for a walk taking in the wildlife, cattle farm, and ending at the lake. This State Park provides a wonderful opportunity to hike, bird watch, and enjoy water recreation. The lake has a 10 hp limit, so it is perfect for kayaking, canoeing, paddle boarding, fishing, and sailing.

This tiny cabin was INCREDIBLE! It was perfect for my son & I to get some off grid one-on-one time. A short drive to Lake Cowdan beach and we had the entire lake all to ourselves through sunset - it was a such a magical experience topped off with great blue herons, deer, and grasshopper sightings!

I would say the photos are exactly what you get! To the owners, I would suggest some solar powered lights for outside, and to mow some of the field to get to the cabin. It’s small, but you don’t need anything more than that! We couldn’t find the outhouse until leaving the next morning as it wasn’t marked! Pretty good value as it’s so nice to have a bed when you camp!

Relaxing getaway!
We enjoyed our relaxing getaway in the country. It's the perfect spot to throw discs and do some fishing. My boyfriend caught 9 bluegill and a bass! What a fun weekend. We highly recommend!!

Beautiful land
The land was beautiful! It had a pond and a “shack” that was more like a cozy treehouse! My daughters loved being able to fish and caught a total of 9 large fish! We absolutely loved it! It’s also right by Cowan lake which is a plus! 10/10 would recommend!

Super cute spot-totally private. Great spot to bring your paddle board or Kayaks just 1/2 a mile down the road to Cowan lake. We could hear the Kings Island fireworks and the Equestrian World announcements. Most of the time just enjoyed the birds and fishing! We were greeted by a heron on the pond and really appreciated the homemade bug spray didn’t get one bite! Pups loved this spot as much as we did.
