The Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR), through the Division of Parks and Watercraft is responsible the management of Ohio State Parks, fifteen (15) of which offer nightly and weekend rental opportunities of individual ones, two and three-bedroom cabins. Cabins were built between 1940 and 1990 with minor renovations since they were originally constructed. ODNR has conducted assessments and several rounds of improvements to the cabins over the last several capital biennia. ODNR is seeking professional design services for two focus areas as the next stage of the statewide cabin improvements. The first focus area will be a continuation of renovations of existing cabins throughout the state. The intent of this project is to address cabins at Cowan Lake, Dillon, Lake Hope, Pike Lake, and Pymatuning State Parks. Renovations include kitchenette and bathroom remodels, finish upgrades, FF&E replacements, window replacements, exterior and interior painting, and mechanical system upgrades. ODNR has developed a "full" renovation program for its standard two- bedroom cabins and a "partial" renovation program for the non-standard historic cabins at Lake Hope. Additionally, structural improvements and building envelope renovations will be undertaken at concessionaire-operated cabins at locations such as Salt Fork, Deer Creek, Hueston Woods, and/or Shawnee. While these locations have been identified as a part of this phase of ODNR's Statewide Cabin Improvement Program, ODNR may elect to include similar scopes of work at additional cabin locations throughout the state should funding allow. The second focus area for improving the cabin program is the design and construction of new cabins at Jesse Owens State Park. ODNR has undertaken a master planning initiative for this new state park and the design and construction of these new cabins will be developed in conjunction with this planning program. All regulatory and environmental regulations and permitting will be the responsibility of the A/E selected for this project. Archaeological assessments may be required depending on property type and location.
