About this property

Heart Haus on the Hill - Near Hocking Hills, Updated/Private/Comfortable!

Close to Hocking Hills, our updated cabin sits high up on a hill about 60 ft above the road in a very private setting. Half the fun is getting up here & once you are, you will enjoy complete privacy & solitude! Two large decks w/adorable heart railings, a balcony, secluded firepit, three levels of living space, cozy bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms & well-equipped kitchen. Only a short drive to Old Man's Cave & the entire Hocking Hills region, nearby lakes, parks, fishing, wineries, shopping & dining! And we have good cell service coverage at our cabin and guess what else? Doordash delivers here!

Perfect for a family, ladies getaway, besties getaway, holidays, anniversary or couple’s retreat. There is plenty of space meant for relaxation and comfort and room for everyone! It’s a hidden gem nestled under a canopy of mature trees and convenient to Rt 33 in southern Fairfield County just 20 minutes to all that Hocking Hills has to offer.

LOWER LEVEL: With the entrance into the finished basement level, you’ll find a family room, dining table (perfect for a puzzle or crafting) and children's play area with games, tee pee, half bathroom and a bedroom (bedroom 3) with queen size bed, 32” smart TV, dresser and a desk or vanity. Bedroom 3 is a great place for an office if you have to work while on vacation.

MAIN LEVEL: One level up (the main level) offers a large living room and dining room with 50” smart TV and an open kitchen with all you’ll need for meal prep including a pantry and well-equipped coffee & tea bar. A sitting area in the kitchen is the perfect spot for a cup of coffee or tea looking out into the woods. Panoramic views from the living and dining room are breathtaking. We also have a booster seat/high chair for a small child. Access to the decks, firepit and charcoal grill are on this main level. The full bathroom, also on this level, features a tub/shower combination.

UPPER LEVEL: The upper level of the Heart Haus features a primary bedroom (bedroom 1) with comfortable king size bed, 32” smart TV, dresser, closet, vanity and private balcony. The vanity also makes a great desk to work from. The additional bedroom across the hall (bedroom 2) offers two full size beds, dresser, closet and reading chair. Each bedroom has been thoughtfully designed for your comfort in mind. Please note there is not a bathroom on this upper level. The balcony off of BR 1 is a very special place & overlooks the hills and amazing sunsets. You're up at the top of the trees from this balcony.

The wrap around decks provide space for outdoor dining, patio seating, charming fairy lights, a balcony, firepit & a charcoal grill all for your private use. This secluded location offers picturesque views of the night sky & surrounding hills. We also have a few white tail deer who sometimes make their appearance.

You’ll clearly see why our cabin is called the Heart Haus…you’ll feel the love throughout. From the German inspired heart railings around the decking to the hints of love in nearly every room, you feel right at home for a perfect cabin getaway!

Over one acre of privacy in the woods with an entire cabin to yourself and hardly another home in sight! You’ll be close to Hocking Hills, hiking, fishing, canoeing, shopping, dining, wineries, breweries, convenient to Rt 33 and situated between Lancaster and Logan. This location is just about 40 minutes to Athens and Ohio University too so a great place to stay when you visit your college kids.

TESTIMONIALS - What other guests have had to say about their stay at the Heart Haus:
"I loved staying at the Heart Haus. The cabin was absolutely beautiful and very, very clean. You can tell the owner put a lot of LOVE in it. From the wrap around porch, to the surrounding trees, the outside lights and balcony off the master bedroom made this cabin the perfect place to spend a long weekend."

"I have a crush on Heart Haus. Loved having my morning coffee with mama and baby deer visitors only 20 feet away. Lots of little thoughtful touches and cuteness at every turn. I had to work on the first day of the trip and the downstairs bedroom was perfect for that. While zooming from the back deck, my coworkers asked, “Is that a real background?” A fun game to play with kids is to ask them to count all of the hearts. Appears newly renovated with a sweet modern interior design without being cloying. Close to all of the trails without being in the middle of the tourist areas. We will definitely be back!"

"This was one of the most peaceful and beautiful cabins we have ever stayed in. Every little thing was thought of and it truly was just a magical time. It was an incredible cabin. it really felt just like home and we did not want to leave. The outdoor lights were magical and I have never slept in a softer bed. it was the best trip we have had in a long time."

Weekend stay
The accommodations were excellent! The beds were comfortable, and everything was easy to find. The driveway was a bit sketchy but we made it! We would definitely stay there again.

40th birthday stay
We stayed the weekend here with family. There was 6 of us. 3 adults, a 19 yr old, a 17 year old and an 11 yr old. Beds were amazing. Slept great. They had everything we needed. Tara communicated quickly and answered all my questions and even checked in periodically throughout the weekend by text to see if we needed anything. We were even able to get in earlier than expected check in time. The house was quiet and comfortable. Everything was labeled so we could easily find things. It was within a short distance of sight seeing. 100% recommend staying here and would stay here again in the future.

Perfect!!
Beautiful property! Outside of the hustle bustle of tourist areas but conveniently close enough to beautiful sightseeing in Hocking Hills. My family would have been happy hanging at the cabin but I dragged them to a couple caves!

About the host

Hosted by Tara

Host profile image
We have traveled to many places, especially in the Midwest and chose to start our vacation rental business to offer a clean and reliable place to stay with amenities we would seek out when we travel. We are licensed in real estate in the state of Ohio and have been selling homes since 2003. We also sell flood insurance (TNT Home and Flood Insurance) in 45 states. We have owned a half dozen long-term rental homes over the past 20 years. We are born to serve and love it!

Why they chose this property

We looked for several years and finally bought this cabin because of the privacy and seclusion it offers. We know that when we travel, we like to be away from the crowds, in less commercial areas to truly enjoy the peace and tranquility of nature. This property offers good cell phone service for most carriers and a strong wifi signal so when we are here enjoying the cabin as a family, we're still able to continue working. We know many others are in the same boat so it was important to us for this cabin to have the ability to accommodate those like us who never stop working but still want to get away.

What makes this property unique

~Seclusion and privacy with good cell phone service
~Well thought decor with your comfort in mind
~King bed, queen bed and two full size beds
~Multiple living spaces with room for everyone
~Coffee and tea bar
~Great location between Lancaster and Logan, Ohio - Even Doordash is available here!
~20 miles to the Hocking Hills region
