You can book/secure the space - consider add-ons and discuss adding them after you have secured the space.





If the Art Lodge speaks to you, explore the Sculptor's Art Bungalow – (The Pollinator).  Also at Raven’s Retreat Hocking Hills is another, more intimate, fully custom, immersive retreat space.





This art-filled nature retreat experience is designed for planners, solo travelers, couples, and groups. Host a gathering or choose a curated, custom experience within a 58-acre sanctuary.



SOME BOOKING PLATFORMS AUTOMATICALLY LABEL CERTAIN PHOTOS AS “SHARED SPACES.” AT THE ART LODGE, THE ONLY SHARED AREA IS THE OUTDOOR WELLNESS TRAIL IN THE FOREST. BECAUSE THE ART LODGE SITS ON A LARGE PRIVATE PRESERVE WITH ONLY TWO RETREAT SPACES, GUESTS RARELY ENCOUNTER OTHERS ON THE TRAIL.

Message from the hosts:





Two artists and life partners spent over five years building the Unique Art Lodge and Tiny Bungalows on a nature preserve, shaping each space with the intention of creating a one-of-a-kind experience - like sleeping in an art museum in the middle of a forest, with eco-luxe amenities. The immersive art installations and symbolism throughout the property are designed to build connection, inspire wellness, and spark creativity.
