About this property
Cabins in a Clearing : Chestnut, Walnut and Beech - check all 3 cabins
Cabins In A Clearing has 3 primitive cabins built in the woods and is also located in the Hocking Hills of Ohio There is a porch, fire ring and grill, heat is provided. Situated 13 miles from Old Man’s Cave. A double bed with linens is provided in Chestnut Cabin along with night stands, book shelves for clothes, etc., and a cafe table with chairs inside, a divided bench table on the porch and a picnic table in the patio. You can eat at the fire ring on cross-section posts if you like. A water line delivers water to a stand pipe along the driveway in a common area accessible by all. A waterproof usb receptacle is close to and behind the water stand pipe making charging of devices easy. Swimming is not permitted in either of the two ponds. Catch and release fishing is permitted when the pond area is not otherwise being used. Each cabin can host 2 adults comfortably and cots without linens can be provided with an additional cost for up to two kids.
We have now added private shower stalls outside each cabin using water bags heated by the Sun. We tried them and on a 68 degree F day, three hours of direct sun produced heated water in excess of 105 degrees F, as hot as many home showers.

About the host
Hosted by Vickey Benedict
Our family bought the property in 1954 when I was three years old. I have lived here most of the time since 1957. I built my own log home here in 1995-1996. I have lived here ever since. I am an Ohio attorney by trade but easing into retirement.
My wife is from Spain and we are completing 24 years of marriage this year. Together we have made many improvements to the property over the years. I greatly enjoyed completing the promitive cabins with our own touches and labor. It was our desire to make them, even though primitive, to be comfortable, relaxing and fun.

Why they chose this property
This property is located less than 3 miles outside Logan the county seat of Hocking County, Ohio. Whether you wish to enjoy Wayne National Forest trails, the Hocking Hills caves area, pizza delivered to your door or one of the many restaurants in the area, you are only minutes away from them all. New Stratsville, touted as the Moonshine Capital of the World, is only a few miles farther out the road and is 4 wheeler friendly.
What makes this property unique
If you like wildlife, deer visit the common areas around the cabins virtually every day and night. When they come in, see if you can stay still enough that you don't scare them away.
Although they avoid people, coyotes can sometimes be heard in the surrounding hills and down next to Old Town Creek.
On Thursdays, the sound of a "hit and miss" engine from oil well production on an adjoining propoerty can actually lull you to sleep. It has a new engine and is so quiet that you soon forget that it is running.
I took up the hobby of making wooden long bows. You can make one in about 16 hours after some practice. If I am around, I'd be happy to give you some tips to et you started or you might be able to give me some as well.
My wife an I cook paellas in the original Valenciana style. We'd be happy to give you some tips on that or how to make the easiest Sangria you have every tried, if we are around when you stay.
Hope to see you soon and hope you have a wonderful time wherever you choose to stay.
