  • The second oldest building remaining on The Ohio State University campus, Orton Hall was opened in 1893. It is named after Dr Edward Orton, Sr. who served as Ohio State's first president, OSU Professor of Geology from 1873 to 1899, and Ohio's State Geologist from 1882 until his death in 1899.

Orton Hall is built of 40 different Ohio building stones. In the outside walls, these stones are laid in stratigraphic order according to their relative positions in Ohio's bedrock. The only non-indigenous to Ohio stone used is Indiana Limestone to build the front steps. It was chosen because of its high concentration of embedded fossils.

The bell tower was dedicated in 1915 and contains 25,000 pounds of bells that can be heard regularly tolling across campus. Encircling the top of the tower are 24 columns with gargoyle-like figures which are restorations of fossil animals.

Great Cottage

The house was very comfortable and spacious with everything we needed for our stay. Krissie was very helpful in extending our stay when we had a heat problem at the new house that needed to be resolved before we could move in. I would highly recommend to anyone coming to the area!

Great stay for Thanksgiving Holiday!

We booked this property at Buckeye Lake because my mom lives in a nearby town and was hosting Thanksgiving. Our extended family has grown and we needed additional space to house everyone. This property was exactly what we were looking for! It is a very cute house, creatively decorated and clean! Highly recommend if you are coming to this area!

Cute and cozy!

We had a great stay! Friends and I visited for Buckeye Lake Winterfest and had a lovely time. The property is situated very close to the lake and was a quick walk to the docks where the kickoff event took place. It is also such a cute and welcoming property! We loved the hot tub in the cold winter weather and being able to cozy up and watch a movie after being out all day. Thanks to Krissie for being an inviting and communicative host!

Exactly what we wanted!

My wife and I were looking for a pet friendly home to enjoy for our anniversary weekend and this was absolutely perfect! The photos in the listing are a very accurate description of the property! You do not always get that lucky with rentals. The property owners have went above and beyond making this a bright & fun space for travelers to enjoy. The beds (we can’t speak for the bunks as we did not use them) are SUPER comfy!!!

Cozy, Dog-Friendly House at Buckeye Lake

We recently stayed for one night and had a great experience from start to finish! The house was very clean and appeared to have been recently renovated, with an open layout and new appliances. Although we didn’t try the hot tub, it's a nice addition, as was the welcome basket of treats for us and our dogs! The neighborhood seems a mix of full-time residents and seasonal lake visitors, which didn’t affect our stay as we mostly stayed inside, but it’s something to be aware of (lots are very close to each other). The house comfortably fit our group (4 adults, 1 child, and 2 dogs). It might feel a bit tight with more adults, but it’s perfect for families and pet owners. The location is convenient—just a couple blocks from a marina and park; a brewery and dining spots are closeby too.
