Goats, chickens, ducks, deer, and one very legendary raccoon.
The kind of encounter most guests talk about for years.
We didn't set out to build a petting zoo. We just love animals, and we've always had them on this land. Somewhere along the way, the goats became the most-reviewed feature of every Bigfoot Bungalow stay. Feeding time is chaos in the best possible way — and we've watched grown adults forget they're adults for about 20 minutes straight.
We provide the snacks. You just show up.
Farm animals are exclusive to Bigfoot Bungalow at 9016 Voris Rd, Logan, OH 43138.
Friendly, opinionated, and absolutely convinced they run the place. Our goats are the most-mentioned feature in nearly every Bigfoot Bungalow review — and once you meet them, you'll understand why.
Guests can pet and hand-feed them from outside the enclosure. We provide the goat snacks. You provide the enthusiasm. They provide the entertainment. What happens next is completely up to the goats — and they know it.
What you'll notice immediately is that no two goats are the same. One demands your attention the second you arrive. One is suspicious of you until the snacks come out — then suddenly you're best friends. One is just there for the chaos. They are, collectively, the best entertainment on the property.
Please supervise children at all times around the animal areas.
Get to know them before you arrive. It helps.
She didn't ask for any of this. She loves her kids but would prefer everyone just calm down. They never do.
Snacks go through him first — that's just the rule. If another goat forgets that rule, Bucky reminds them. Physically.
Coco's sister. Bucky's aunt. She and Bucky have a complicated relationship that usually ends with someone getting headbutted. It's a whole thing.
She hangs back, watches, and waits. Earn her trust and she's yours. Rush her and she's gone. Take your time with this one.
Fully convinced she's the most beautiful goat on the property. She's wrong. She's also somehow right. Ugly-cute is a real thing and she has mastered it.
The runt. The nicest one by a mile. Proof that the smallest ones often have the biggest hearts.
Our seventh goat is still waiting for the right name. Think you've got one? Drop us a suggestion on social media — we're taking submissions.
Our chickens roam freely on the property and will absolutely appear somewhere you don't expect them. The deck. Near the car. Watching you from a respectable distance while you drink your morning coffee.
They are not particularly interested in your opinion, but they are very interested in whether you have food. They will find you before you find them. Every single time.
Four ducks. Strong opinions. Mostly about personal space.
Unlike the chickens — who will show up in your front yard without asking permission — the ducks tend to keep to themselves. They have their corner of the property and they're happy in it. Come find them. They won't come find you.
Born with a little extra wobble, and fully at peace with it. He moves at his own pace, on his own schedule, and has never once let it slow him down. The unofficial heart of the duck crew.
The spokesperson. If something is happening on this property that the ducks have feelings about, Quill is going to let everyone know. Loudly.
Goes wherever the group goes. No strong opinions. No drama. Just vibes.
Observes everything. Trusts no one. Respects everyone who respects her space.
It started simply enough. Two female rabbits, roaming freely on the property.
Except — as it turns out — whoever confirmed they were both female was spectacularly wrong. One of them was not. And now Johnson Hillside Cabins has a thriving, free-roaming colony of domesticated rabbits that nobody planned for and everybody loves.
We feed the deer year-round. Which means they keep coming back. Which means you'll find yourself standing at the living room window or the front porch with a cup of coffee in your hand, watching them at the feeders, wondering how you ever spent a morning any other way.
No feeding required on your end. No effort. No trail to hike or animal to chase down. You just be here — and they show up.
It's one of the quieter magic moments of a Bigfoot Bungalow stay. The kind you don't see coming and don't forget.
Most guests don't expect this one. Bigfoot Bungalow has multiple bird feeders set up around the property — and the variety and volume of birds that show up year-round has genuinely surprised people who had no idea they were into birdwatching until they sat on the porch for twenty minutes.
We keep a bird identification booklet at the cabin — on the dining room table or the porch, wherever it finds you — so you can put a name to every visitor. Guests pick it up out of curiosity and end up spending an hour with it. It shows up in reviews more than you'd expect.
Bird ID booklet available at the cabin. Feeders stocked year-round.
Rumpke wasn't planned. She showed up one day, barely alive, and a member of the Johnson Hillside Cabins family refused to let that be the end of her story. She was nursed back to health, given a name — Rumpke, after the local trash company, because trash panda felt right — and when she was strong enough and safe enough to return to the wild where she belongs, she was released.
She came back anyway.
Not because she had to. Because she wanted to. Rumpke still frequently visits her human mom at Johnson Hillside Cabins, on her own schedule, on her own terms. She is mysterious, unhurried, and answers to no one. Guests who catch a glimpse of her consider it one of the highlights of their stay.
Rumpke does not fear humans the way wild raccoons typically do — but she is a wild animal, and she deserves to be treated like one. Please admire her from a distance. Do not attempt to feed her, approach her, or pick her up. She has earned her freedom and her space on this property.
Rumpke sightings are never guaranteed. She keeps her own schedule and always will.
If you see her — consider yourself lucky.
Rumpke is a reminder that this property sits inside something wild and alive. The 50 acres surrounding Bigfoot Bungalow are home to far more than the animals you'll meet at the fence. This is their territory as much as yours — and we respect that.
Keep your distance, leave no food outside, and enjoy every encounter for what it is — something most people never get to see.
Fed year-round. Regular visitors to the property feeders.
Regular flock visitors — usually mornings.
Spotted regularly. Beautiful and fast.
Regular overhead sightings from the 50 acres.
Confirmed less than 1 mile from property. Rare — but real. Leave no food outside.
Confirmed in the area. Rarely seen — even rarer to be seen twice.
The goats, the chickens, the ducks, the rabbits, the deer, the birds — and maybe, if you're lucky, Rumpke herself. This is what a Bigfoot Bungalow stay feels like before you've even unpacked.
We asked the goats if they had anything to say to future guests. Bucky stared at us. Coco looked embarrassed. Smalls was very polite about it. But the message was clear — they're ready when you are, and they'd like you to bring snacks.
This isn't just a cabin stay. It's 50 private acres of Hocking Hills, a property full of animals with actual personalities, and a host family that has been on this land for over 50 years. There is nothing generic about any of it.
