Rainy Spring Break

Unfortunately, the weather did not allow us to use the property as we had hoped, but we were able to get a few good walks down to the lake between the raindrops.

Lovely, quiet spot

We stayed for a weekend when we needed a pet friendly place in the area. The house is as advertised. I liked how well lit it was outside and all of the outdoor space. We didn’t do much in the area as we were there for a wedding. The house was clean and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay again!

Lake House Hillsboro, Ohio

Clean and attractive house near Rocky Fork State Park. Plenty of seating, entertainment and recreation on the property. Nice outdoor basketball court. Saw a family of wild turkeys in the back yard this morning as we were getting ready to leave. This is the first time I have ever rented a house short term, but the agent (Rico) made the process seem simple and answered all of my questions. Really a positive experience.

Perfect getaway

The house was spacious and the property was also with plenty of room inside and outside too. Close to the boat ramps, gas stations and several eating locations. The kitchen was very well stocked for us to cook several meals and was equipped with what was needed. The beds were comfortable and each room had a nice down home feeling as the house was nice and clean. Indoor seating options, sunroom and also seating outside on the patio or front porch, plenty of space. The Bathrooms were nice and clean and fully equipped and we will be looking to stay here again in the future.

nice house but needed better cleaning

House was nice and we really enjoyed the trail to the lake and the yard/firepit. The 4-seasons room was not clean when we got there - I swept up a dustpan FULL of dirt, pet hair, cobwebs; thick cobwebs under barstool. Dishwasher was still full of dishes, one shelf of towels in linen closet were in a crumpled bunch so we weren't really sure if clean or not. Some cabs in kitchen had outdated opened food so couldn't really use the cabs for our own stuff so it all stayed out on the counters Other than that initial bad first impression, we did have a nice weekend there.

Nice Getaway

This was our first time going to Rocky Fork Lake and we picked the perfect place to stay. Very clean and cozy, the property owner was extremely helpful when I had questions. Thank you so much for allowing us to stay we had a wonderful time just hanging out and fishing. We ever get back to the area, we would stay there again.

Lake House in Ohio

Owner was very helpful and communicative. Property was easy to access and had nice appliances and amenities. There was a really nice fire pit and even a basketball court for the kids. We were there in Fall but this would be a really lovely summer place to visit. We would definitely stay again in any season.

Rico was a great host, great property and location.

Updated, nice, clean house and property. Rico was very responsive and a great host. Tons of games for the kids was a us. Very close to boat launch. Only reason for just the for 4 stars for accuracy of listing was that I mistakenly assumed that given the boat dock was pictured, the boat slips came with the rental, which was incorrect. This was my error and should have looked into further. If you want to keep your boat on the water, you need a daily permit through the State Park. Overall, great experience and would reccomend. We'll be back!

Overall great stay

The place was clean and the owner was very thoughtful. When there was a big storm the owner was quick to ask if we were ok and had quick response to any questions/concerns we had. The only negative is that the dish washer was broken during our visit. Although we were informed prior to the visit it was little inconvenient. Other than that slight negative it was a very nice stay.

Rico's lakeside cottage

This 3 bedroom ranch worked well for my multi generational family including two young grandsons whom enjoyed the firepit fully equipped with chopped firewood and plenty of on site brush to stoke the fire, and Rico made special dock access arrangements for my Waverunner jet ski,. You could not ask the host Rico to be any more responsive and fully transparent. The backyard offers plenty of privacy and the sunroom was especially embracing in the morning, and worked equally well in the evening for playing late night cards. Bob and Sherry D

Clean home near the lake

Home is clean and well-cared for with two living rooms and three bedrooms. There is no dining room or kitchen table, though, but there were four barstools. Some trouble with dishwasher getting dishes clean.
