Hillsboro House | Luxury Farm-Stay near Rocky Fork with Free Experience!

5 Bedroom House in Hillsboro

An hour east of Cincinnati & southwest of Columbus
Minutes from Rocky Fork Lake
A world away from everything.
Come visit a place in Amish country, where the grass is greener, your 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.
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).
Free Experience - We offer free catch and release fishing on the pond. Just bring your own pole!
You’ll have access to the entire house in addition to 82 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, Siegfried and Tristan, a unique breed from the mountains of Switzerland.
We live on the property and are available if you need anything. Feel free to reach out for any needs and to book hayrides and learning experiences such as making maple syrup from freshly tapped trees, foraging tours, gardening and bread-making classes & participating in old-fashioned farm chores. Visit our website at kinderfarmfamilydotorg to learn more. *Learning experiences are based on the season and host’s availability.
Rent boats and kayaks or book fishing trips on Rocky Fork Lake. Spend the day visiting art or history museums or sampling gourmet eateries in Cincinnati or Columbus. Visit The Air Force Museum, underground railroad sites or learn more about the Wright Brothers or the poet, Paul Laurence Dunbar, in Dayton. There is plenty to do no matter the time of year or the weather!
Quiet, secluded country setting.
You may be greeted by four friendly dogs when you arrive. Also, 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 spotty. We find this can be an opportunity to disconnect from technology and better connect with yourself, family and friends.

Summary: We had a wonderful time staying in this lovely house and thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful setting. We had a small family gathering which the multiple bedrooms and library/playroom accommodated very well. Check-in was easy, kitchen -- in fact the entire house is well appointed (with a surprise gift of cookies and freshly picked squash from the garden), and the host couldn't have been more helpful. Excellent experience!

Summary: It was such a joy staying at Heidi’s Carriage House Farm. The place was perfectly clean and comfortably slept our family of 4, and we could have easily made it 6. The hosts generously provided outdoor games (cornhole + bocce), firewood, a s’more pack, and family games - all the ingredients for a great family weekend. Honestly can’t count how many times we all said “isn’t this place perfect?” Thank you for the memorable stay!

Summary: We were looking for a little farm family experience for our youngest ones 3rd birthday, and our stay did not disappoint! We arrived at the carriage house, and were greeted by the hosts family, as they were enjoying their beautiful outdoor 57acre oasis. The entire family was extremely warm, and kind. I had asked in advance about little “chores” my kids could help with, Heidi (one of the host) was extremely helpful in coordinating, and the next morning my kids helped bring the cows to the pastures to graze, collect chicken eggs, and also snuggle and help care for puppies that were born a few months before. Later on, their eldest son took us on a foraging walk, finished with mint tea with mint we collected. My eldest also fished in their pond with another one of their kids, they were all so hospitable! We were also surprised by a little s’mores basket for that evening! The next morning I received a text asking if my kids would like to take a little hayride around the property! My only complaint was that we weren’t there long enough. As for the space, it was absolutely beautiful, and there were additions made, so the place was huge! There was more then enough room for our family of 5. The area is also in the arc of the Appalachian mountains, so if you love the outdoors, there are great hikes nearby as well. We will cherish these memories forever, and are so grateful for our stay.
