Once
at Stoney Creek Cottage, you'll feel as though you are miles
from everyday life! But in actuality, you will only be three
miles from a state highway…but a picturesque and breathtaking
three miles. Halfway between the historic Ohio towns of
Chillicothe and Waverly, you will be nestled among the hills,
valleys, creeks and lakes of southcentral Ohio and absolutely
surrounded by Scioto Trail State Park and Forest, one of
the reasons Ohio's park system is ranked tops in the nation.

From
the North:
Take
State Route 23 South exactly ten miles south of Chillicothe,
Ohio. Watch for two landmarks: Rozelle Creek Road and then
DeBord Road. Immediately past DeBord, you will see a brown
and white sign alerting you to Scioto Trail. Turn left into
the State Park and Forest and stay on the main park roadway
(follow the yellow centerline) for exactly three miles.
This is Stoney Creek Road. After passing picnic areas, camping
areas, bridle trails and three miles of gorgeous forest
scenery, you will notice a few private homes with mailboxes
and house-numbers. Stoney Creek Cottage is located at 3174.
Watch for the sign.
