The Space
Layered with texture, warmth, and intention — a retreat built for groups who want more than a place to sleep.
Fern & Foundry is a Hocking Hills retreat that rewards groups who pay attention to detail. The heated pool sits at the heart of the property — open year-round, lit at night, and surrounded by the kind of quiet you can only find deep in the Ohio woods. Add a private barrel sauna, 7-person hot tub, and a fire pit strung with lights under the autumn canopy, and evenings here become something you talk about long after you leave.
Inside, the tone is organic and moody — warm textures, intentional light, and a full slate of entertainment. Movie theater, arcade games (Pac-Man and Mortal Kombat), billiard table, dart board, telescope for stargazing, three-seasons room, kids playroom, indoor fireplace, and a full kitchen. Thirty-six amenities. Organic, earthy, and slightly moody — exactly as designed.
What's Included
A private heated pool open year-round — lit after dark, surrounded by the Hocking Hills woods, and unlike anything you'll find at a comparable rental. The centrepiece of Fern & Foundry, morning to night.
Step out of the pool and into the sauna. Step out of the sauna and into the hot tub. Repeat until the stars come out. A recovery ritual built into the property's DNA — private, unhurried, and exactly right.
Movie theater, arcade games, billiard table, dart board, and yard games — there is no dead time at Fern & Foundry. The three-seasons room and fire pit keep the gathering going long after dinner.
Deep in Hocking Hills, private and secluded. The kind of place where you lose track of the time — and where a telescope on a clear night, a telescope on a clear night, and a fire pit under string lights feels like exactly the right idea.

"The pool is unlike anything we've found at a rental property. Warm, private, lit at night — we were in and out all weekend. Fern & Foundry delivered on every front."
Sarah · Columbus, Ohio
"The sauna-to-hot-tub-to-fire-pit loop is a ritual now. We did it every night. The woods close in around the property at dusk and it feels like the world disappears."
Marcus · Cincinnati, Ohio
"Exactly as described — organic, earthy, and moody in the best possible way. The texture of the design, the quiet of the setting. We're already looking at return dates."
Emily · Nashville, Tennessee
"The movie theater, the arcade, the billiards — the group never ran out of things to do. And then at the end of the night the fire pit pulled everyone back outside. Perfect trip."
David · Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
"We used the telescope on a clear night and it was one of the highlights of the whole trip. It's the kind of thoughtful detail that tells you the hosts really care about the experience."
Jessica · Louisville, Kentucky
"The three-seasons room was our morning spot. Coffee, quiet, and the Ohio woods just outside the glass. Fern & Foundry is the kind of place that makes you rethink what a vacation should feel like."
