Serene and Peaceful

We loved the privacy and all of the features this place offered. Had a minor issue with the hot tub but maintenance was quick to help and we got it working quickly. Our favorite part was probably the home theater. We loved our stay here and it was clean and beautiful. One thing i would Caution future guests about is our GPS tried to take us up an extremely steep hill when finding the place and it was terrifying. It was a utility line hill. Do not go up the hill with no address listed lol

Perfect, quiet getaway!

The cabin, sauna and hot tub were perfect! The property was very clean and tastefully decorated. We really enjoyed the theater room with projection screen and surround sound. Would definitely stay here again! We only had one issue, finding the place! It is very remote , rural and private. We did call the host for clarification of directions but did not receive a call back at all. . Other than that, we had no issues.

Relaxing weekend away

We had a wonderful time at the cabin over a long weekend. Even got a snowy Hocking Hills day which was magical. The hot tub and sauna were definitely highlights of the stay. We had a couple of glitches while there that were quickly remedied. It is well water, so some sulfur smell is a possibility. The property managers were quick to take action and even plowed out the drive after the beautiful snowy Sunday!

Holiday trip

Spent Christmas week in Hocking Hills, hiking and relaxing at the house. Happy to see Christmas trees and decorations in the house. Location is Central to all the trails and quiet back in the woods. Had a wonderful week.

Buona Vita lives up to its name. Everything about it indicates that it is "the good life."

This was our fourth or fifth time staying here. The cabin is beautiful, and it's set on a quiet piece of land, perfect for a relaxing getaway. That said, we found the overall booking process and financials to be quite confusing. We couldn't tell what we were being charged for and what we weren't being charged for. That needs some work.

Wish we could have stayes longer

Home is beautiful. Great location. Appreciated clarity of home binder/labeling of electrical/ordered labeling of remotes in theatre room. Only concern: cold faucet handle in lower level bathroom may have a bad cartridge. Leaked and had difficulty getting it to turn off once.

Great cabin tucked away in the woods

Our stay was great, we were there for 2 nights. When we arrived our AC wasn’t working, but the managers of the cabin were able to send someone out and have it working by 9 pm. Our WiFi also didn’t work much all weekend. We were hoping to have some college football games on, but weren’t really able to do so. I get we’re in hocking hills, but they advertise working WiFi, and it wasn’t working. Definitely should upgrade their pillows. Bring your own for sure. The space was incredibly clean and private. There was plenty of room and the four of us were comfortable. We definitely would consider returning

Great Cabin in the Woods!!

The pictures dont do it justice!! This is probably our favorite VRBO rental to date!! It was enough off the beaten path to let us relax, but close enough to the park and Logan for stuff to do! We pretty much lived on the back porch. It was a great place to drink coffee in the morning, watch a family of wild turkeys in the afternoon, and listen to spooky podcasts at night! The cabin really made our first time to Hocking Hills special! Rent this place, you wont be disappointed!!

Really enjoyed our stay!

We really enjoyed our stay… our families stayed here and at dolce vita which are connected by a path. It was perfect for our extended family vacation. Took the family out hiking at ash cave and rock house, perfect for our older (65) and younger (2) travelers! The accommodations were well stocked with supplies and everything needed. Loved the hot tub and updated bathrooms. Good location. The only sour part of the trip was the broken Roku remote in the movie room.. so we couldn’t use the movie room. They were responsive when we reported the problem but we never got a new remote. Also, if you struggle with the odor/smell of well water, this water was very sulfur smelling and I wouldn’t recommend staying.

The cabin was clean & had all the amenities we needed. The hot tub was a great addition although the only setting on the jets was high & some jets didn't work at all.
