This lovely Stone House has been restored to its 1840’s appearance compete with a summer kitchen and existing unique root cellar. The summer kitchen, built adjacent to the main house, lessened the possibility of fire and also kept the main house cool-er in the summer. The kitchen was used year round for the preparation of food, as well as butchering and canning. The ox yoke on display above the fireplace was worn on oxen that hauled the sand stone to the site by the Irish masons who built the house.

Perched high atop the rugged terrain of rural southeast Ohio, the scenic lodge golf course at Salt Fork State Park is a destination worth taking the clubs to. With its rolling fairways and expansive greens, the 18-hole championship course will challenge even the most experienced golfer. The par-71 course spans 250 acres of forested hills, open meadows and misty valleys of Guernsey County. Measuring only 5, 786 yards from the white tees, the course plays considerably longer than expected because of the numerous uphill approach shots.Whether you're planning a corporate team building golf outing, a men's or women's league, a school tournament or a family bonding day, we can help you plan your outing, including a hearty meal afterwards. Looking to have a charitable event or benefit scrambles? Our courses are ready to help you set up a wonderful outing! Catering options are available.
