Great vacation place

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin.It was a bit out of the way for hiking at Hocking hills… the trails are 30-50 minutes drive away, but definitely worth the drive and stay.

Many positives - location, privacy, shaded, cozyFew negatives - directions could be better, not many kitchen amenities, several things around the house could have used a little updating but that will not keep us from returning. For the price - it was well worth it!

Getaway to the Woods

The check-in process and the kitchen facilities were great. We had everything that we needed. It was a little bit difficult to get to the cabin with the GPS at night, but we did find it. It was a basic cabin with no special amenities, but we did have everything that we needed. The only thing I could say really is that the beds weren’t the most comfortable but overall it was a comfortable stay. We loved how we had a secluded little spot, but we’re still close enough to a supermarket less than 15 minutes away. The outdoor chairs are worn and broken, but you can always bring your own camp chairs and there is furniture on the front porch and a picnic table. We would stay here again, but we would probably upgrade our cabin due to wanting to go with a bigger party next time and have more amenities. I would look to rent from these owners again though.

We had a great stay each night after three long days of exploring and hiking. A great place to rest our heads, build a fire, play games, cook dinner and relax in hammocks. We would stay here again.

Late August family trop

Cabin was everything we needed. Great for kids, I liked the secluded location however my kids did not like the added driving to hocking hills that came with that. Benefit however was being close to lake Hope which has lots to offer.
