Description
Coshocton Crest Lodge is the kind of property that is increasingly difficult to find. It is a private sporting estate where outstanding craftsmanship, commanding views, recreational opportunities, and thoughtful infrastructure have been brought together into one extraordinary setting.
At the heart of the property is a 7,000-square-foot Eastern red cedar log residence. The elevated setting of the estate offers sweeping views across the rolling hills and valleys of Coshocton County, providing remarkable privacy, scale, and a true sense of place.
Featured in Log Home Living magazine, the five-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence is a remarkable example of custom log construction. Solid Eastern red cedar logs, massive timbers, soaring ceilings, expansive windows, natural stone, and multiple grand, towering stone fireplaces create the warmth and character expected of a true lodge while delivering the comfort and sophistication of a luxury residence.
The interior was designed for both everyday living and entertaining on a grand scale. A spacious chef’s kitchen anchors the main living areas, while custom black walnut and spalted maple live-edge countertops add distinctive craftsmanship throughout the home. The Western-style saloon, game room, private theater, and spacious trophy room with vaulted ceilings provide ample space for an impressive collection of mounts, along with inviting spaces for family and guests.
Extensive decking expands the living experience outdoors, creating multiple settings for entertaining, dining, or simply enjoying the views and changing seasons. A spacious hot tub offers an ideal place to unwind after a day spent hunting, fishing, hiking, or exploring the property.
A substantial log pavilion with a wood-burning fireplace adds another distinctive gathering space just beyond the residence. Its craftsmanship and architectural character complement the lodge while providing a natural setting for outdoor meals, entertaining, or evenings around the fire.
The residence is equipped for year-round living, with radiant floor heat throughout all levels and a Generac whole-home generator for added peace of mind. Free natural gas is supplied to the residence.
The recreational infrastructure surrounding Coshocton Crest Lodge is equally impressive. A wildlife habitat plan developed by Grant Woods of GrowingDeer TV provides the foundation for a highly intentional hunting and wildlife-management program. Four established food plots are planted with soybeans through the spring and summer and transitioned to clover, wheat, radish, and brassicas for fall and winter. Apple trees, Texas Hunter feeders, strategic sanctuary bedding areas, and raised tower blinds further enhance the habitat and hunting setup.
More than two miles of groomed perimeter trails provide excellent access throughout the property, connecting the residence with hunting areas, water, fields, and the broader recreational landscape.
The private shooting range adds another uncommon amenity, with established shooting distances extending to 500 yards, steel targets, and a covered pavilion. It is a serious recreational facility that would be exceptionally difficult to recreate on a property after acquisition.
Two spring-fed ponds provide additional fishing opportunities and wildlife habitat. A 9.5-acre pasture enclosed with five-wire electric fencing adds flexibility for livestock, horses, or other recreational uses.
The improvements at Coshocton Crest Lodge reflect the property’s intended use as a private sporting retreat. The insulated five-car garage is designed as a true base of operations for the outdoorsman, offering workshop space, built-in storage, a dedicated game-processing room with an electric hoist and a wash-down area, a gear and locker room, and a secure gun room with a built-in safe.
The Barn at Coshocton Hills adds another level of versatility. This impressive two-story structure features rough-sawn framing, board-and-batten siding, concrete floors, electrical service, a loft with its own deck, and a large covered porch that creates ample space for entertaining and gathering. Having previously hosted weddings and large gatherings, the barn offers tremendous potential for private events, entertaining, family gatherings, or other owner-directed uses.
An additional homesite expands the estate’s future possibilities, with its own road frontage, stone drive, pond, and electric already in place. Power has also been extended toward the center of the property, providing additional flexibility for future building or improvements.
Coshocton Crest Lodge is much more than an outstanding log home. It is a fully developed private sporting property where the architecture, land, wildlife habitat, hunting infrastructure, shooting range, trails, water, outbuildings, and gathering spaces have been thoughtfully integrated to create an experience that can be enjoyed year-round.
For the accomplished buyer seeking privacy without sacrificing quality, this property offers an unusually complete recreational lifestyle. It can serve as a remarkable full-time residence, a multigenerational family retreat, a premier hunting property, a corporate getaway, or a private destination for entertaining family and friends.
Perhaps most compelling is what the next owner does not have to build. The lodge is already established. The habitat has already been developed. The trails, blinds, food plots, ponds, shooting range, pavilion, barn, garage, utilities, and additional homesite are already in place.
For someone looking for more than a beautiful home and more than acreage, Coshocton Crest Lodge offers the rare opportunity to acquire an established private sporting estate in one of Ohio’s most beautiful landscapes, where the hard work has already been done, and the property is ready to be enjoyed.
