Excellent host

We had a great time here. The host was incredibly helpful with a minor issue we had, and otherwise the cabin was great. A short drive to a vineyard, Hocking Hills, and Logan. Highly recommend

Short trip

This was a great location for our short 1 night trip to Hocking hills. We loved how it is set back from the street and secluded. The cabin is very nice inside and the hot tub is great! Hope to stay again in the future.

Perfect Getaway

We looked around A LOT before booking and honestly, this was exactly what we were looking for! It’s off the road a little way, no neighbors. Also, the hot tub was the perfect addition to our snowy honeymoon! We enjoyed our visit and will be booking again! We enjoyed the games & DVD’s provided, everything worked and was very accommodating! Can’t wait to stay again!

New Year Trip

The cabin was just the right size for us. Everything was fine except for the bathtowels. They really need to be replaced with larger, and nicer towels. Also it would be nice if they had wineglasses available. The setting was beautiful with the snow.

Perfect!

The owner responded quickly when i reached out, he gave all information i could hope for. The cabin was beautiful and stocked way better then i anticipated even down to DVD selections which was amazing! The hot tub was perfect. the location was isolated which is what i was looking for yet close to the beautiful hiking trails nearby. It was everything i was looking for amd worth every penny!

Very private

Wonderful getaway for my husband and I’s 19th anniversary. Very secluded. We hardly heard maybe 10 cars go down the road the entire time (3 days)And even they were at a distance. Bed was comfy and a queen. I was worried because the pictures looked like a full bed. Plan to come back again.

Very secluded

My boyfriend and I enjoyed our stay here. We enjoyed how secluded it was and the little walking trail. The hot tub was wonderful. Towels should be better and there should be more. Theres enough towels for one night but more is needed for a stay any longer than a night. Grill needs replaced and the cleaning could gave been better. I would stay here again.
