Ohio has no shortage of unique places to stay during your next getaway. Whether you opt to spend the night with the kids in the family-friendly caboose or plan a romantic Scottish-themed weekend in a croft built for two, we're confident you'll find someplace fun to rest your head and get a good night's sleep. This family-friendly caboose is situated in the heart of Hocking Hills near some of the best hiking in the area. Explore by day and relax around the fire pit at night roasting marshmallows. This isn't the treehouse you grew up with. Unplug and relax as a couple or family in this unique two-story treehouse situated within Ohio's only treehouse village. Lustron homes were once the home of the future but you'll find very few have survived or have been kept close to their original condition. This home near Dayton that welcomes overnight guests is a rare find. This secluded adults-only property offers several lodging options. From cute crofts, to cabins to rooms and suites in the manor and carriage house, you'll be transported to the Scottish Highlands right here in Hocking Hills. Can you imagine waking up to this view? That's not the only perk you'll find when you spend the night at Nomad Ridge at The Wilds in southeastern Ohio. Tucked away in Hocking Hills, the castle and village offer options for couples, families, and groups and provide access to what may be the largest board game collection on earth. Cute, comfortable and ideally located in downtown Sandusky, the Sky Loft Condo not only comes with views of Sandusky Bay and Cedar Point, it also has views of a 32-foot climbing fall that runs through the condo. Stay inside or venture into the Paddle & Climb store beneath the condo to play. 7 Unique Places to Stay in Ohio
