About this property

Shipping Container Cabin

The Hygge [pronounced, Hoo-Gah] is the third and largest design by Box Hop team (Emily & Seth Britt). Using 7 shipping containers, the design is laid out and created with larger groups and families in mind. The open floor plan and five bedrooms leave plenty of room to bring the party with you! Although the Hygge is quite minimalistic, there are no luxuries spared. If you’re not out enjoying Hocking Hills, you can cozy up to one of our matching suspended wood-burning fireplaces.

Only 12 miles from Hocking Hills State Park, 5 miles from Cantwell Cliffs, 8 miles from Rock House trail -- there are endless activities in this area. To name a few: zip-lining & canopy tours, canoeing trips, hiking & biking trails, fishing, and horseback riding. There are also several local shops, restaurants, breweries, scenic tours and the John Glenn Astronomy Park.

If you’re not out enjoying Hocking Hills, you can cozy up to one of our matching suspended wood-burning fireplaces located both inside and outside the box.

When you arrive to the Hygge, take notice of the Scandi vibe and unique look - can you tell it was built with shipping containers? Wait until you see the back side where four of the bedrooms have their own private patio created from the doors of the containers. Mighty yet minimal this one.

INSIDE HIGHLIGHTS:
Five bedrooms; 3 queen size beds & 2 full size beds
Two full bathrooms - one on each floor
Two suspended wood-burning fireplaces - one inside and one outside
Full kitchen stocked with cookware & serving dishes
Washer and dryer
Air mattress (queen) available

Tucked in the back corner of the eighteen+ acres of the property, you are welcome to hike and explore or simply sit on your private patio with coffee in hand. You could also take that coffee or a cocktail into the spa enclosure outside and soak in Mother Nature from the Sauna or Hot tub that come with awesome views of a wooded ravine.

The first floor deck extends the living space outside with large outdoor couches and chairs, a suspended fireplace, and a gas grill. There is lots of room on the deck to pull out corn hole, ring toss, or any other eventful shenanigans. 

OUTSIDE HIGHLIGHTS:
Large deck overlooking the ravine
Suspended wood-burning fireplace
Gas grill
Enclosed/Covered Spa Area
Hot tub
Sauna
18.5 acres to hike and explore

Great!

We always love staying at the Hygge. Management is responsive and helpful, and the property is always clean and welcoming. The drive up is beautiful and easy, and once you're there, it’s a wonderful area to explore on foot. The bathrooms are spacious and spotless, and they’ve done a great job making the most of every part of the cabin. Ending the day in the hot tub or sauna is always a highlight!

Hygge

Second time staying in one of your cabins. First time in Hygge. Downstairs bathroom door was locked from the inside. Came to get away but would have been nice if internet had worked so the kids could watch movies at night. Otherwise enjoyed out time.

Great weekend getaway

The place was great, the hosts were very attentive. The cleaning from the previous party was sub par but I’m somewhat of a Monica Gellar when it comes to that stuff. Would stay here again

wonderful girls trip

We absolutely loved staying at The Hygge Box Hop! I scheduled a girls night for four of my friends. It was so lovely to have so much space for ourselves as we are all working moms, and the house was so quiet! We especially enjoyed the sauna, the well appointed kitchen, and the super comfy beds! Thank you, we will be back!

Perfect work retreat location

Great location, easy to find, and everything was so clean. The hot tub and sauna were fantastic. Kitchen had all the essentials, plenty of parking, loved the antique malls around the area. Everything you could need is just right down the road.

Perfect for girls weekend

My girlfriends and I stayed at the Hygge for a weekend away, and it was perfect. The large patio and other amenities like the hot tub and sauna were a delight. Everything was great, we had only wished there were long matches for the fireplace and a bigger toaster, but other than that we can't wait to come back!

Five Stars for Sure!

This is our second time staying at the Box Hop to celebrate our (now) 22nd wedding anniversary. As we did last year, dear friends joined us, and we all were just blown away by the spaciousness, the decor, the amenities, and location. Everything could have not been more perfect for a much-needed relaxation getaway for all of us, really. Loved the sauna, hot tub, and pull -down TV projector screen. We did not grill due to the drought burn ban, but we took advantage of the awesome kitchen and had amazing meals together. Everything was so comfortable, and it was a blessing to be in the woods, in nature. The Hygge deserves a 5-star rating for sure. THANK YOU to Emily and Seth for creating such wonderful places for all of us to enjoy!

Cozy retreat

My husband, daughters (age 10,9, and 4) visited Hocking Hills for the first time and had the best experience. The house was ready for us, tidy, clean and oh so cozy!!! We especially loved the hot tub and fires for s'mores! My husband loved the sauna and daughters liked the piano (a little too much!!). I loved staying cozy with my coffee in the morning enjoying the wall of windows filled with beautiful trees. I can't say enough about this sweet home in the woods- it was perfect for the 5 of us!

So pretty

We loved how much space there was in the hygge! This was our 4th time staying at a box hop property and the spaces never disappoint. The Hygge felt so luxurious and the piano was a huge hit with our seven year old. Having your own private sauna was such a nice bonus. We did not have any fire wood left for us but received a quick response as to where we could grab some from. We also booked with a promotional code and didn’t receive the fall gift that I thought was supposed to be included which was a little disappointing.

Christmas Cabin Weekend

The cabin is wonderful. All of the finishes are well done, the panoramic view is beautiful, and the weekend with family was cozy and fun. I am giving 4 stars for the following reasons: 1) the beds are full-size, which is less than ideal for adult couples, 2) there are no bathtubs ( I have a toddler), and the living space, while open-concept, is small square-footage. Being a family of 11 made all being in the living room and dining table together difficult. These issues are no fault to the cabin itself, just something to consider if you have children and/or a large group. The fireplaces in the living room and on the back deck were both beautiful art installations and cozy gathering places. We also thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub and sauna. A perfect place for trendy, skinny adults in their 20s with no kids haha!

Unqiue Design, Enjoyed Our Stay

Our recent stay was generally good, but there are a few areas that could use improvement to enhance the overall experience. We enjoyed the unqiue structure and Scandinavian design. We felt the price per night was appropriate and found the property to be situated in a convenient area. The kitchen was functional but lacked some basic essentials. Items such as a oil olive, sharper knives, and drying rack would be greatly appreciated. There are no window coverings in the house. The views are great, but bring a sleeping mask if you want to sleep in after the sunrise! The upstairs bathroom is functional, but very small. With a large group it was difficult to get ready as there is no counterspace or place to set any toiletries. Adding a small table or shelving to place items would be helpful. The sink in the downstairs bathroom was hard to use, the facet almost touches the bottom of the sink. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and appreciate the host's effort in maintaining the property. They responded quickly when we had a problem arise. We appreciated the house guide with instructions.

Why they chose this property

Located in the heart of the Hocking Hills region, we are just minutes away from all the great hiking and exploring. We are also very easy access to the highway (1.5 miles from our drive) so that you can easily travel to the local grocery, restaurants, zip-lining and more.

What makes this property unique

The Boho Box Hop is made out of 2 intermodal shipping containers. It is unique in design and architecture. Similar vibe to a tiny home, The Boho utilizes compact living, using every space creatively to live the simple life. On the back side of the home, there is a large deck with an outdoor chiminea (fire), gas grill and hot tub.
