We loved our stay! The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. Our kids had a blast fishing in the pond and riding the boats. We almost didn't need to leave the cabin at all. The hiking paths were nice too (check for ticks afterward).

I can’t say enough good things about this property. The cabin was comfortable. The large deck was great. We loved the hot tub! My daughter and I took the pedal boat out on the lake while my husband and other daughter hiked the property. It was so nice to be secluded and have great options for things to do around the cabin. I would definitely book this again.

The cabin was immaculate upon arrival.The entire cabin looks new.The hot tub was clean and worked well.The host (Andy) was incredibly helpful with his very clear instructions and he even let us know that a neighbor’s calf was loose and the property and not to be concerned if we saw people walking through the woods, lol.
There are so many great things to say about our stay. The cabin is an absolute gem, that is well kept inside and out. The privacy was amazing and the activities available were a fun addition. The host reponded timely and was very kind. We can't think of one thing we would of needed because it had everything. We would highly recommend and we would stay again. Thank you for making our week in Hocking Hills a memorable one.

Heaven on Earth
This place was absolutely perfect in every way! From the moment we pulled into the drive we were in love. The drive to the cabin displayed a tree canopy, the cabin had everything we needed and in great, clean condition. I definitely over packed. The inside was little, but perfect for us. The outside view was breathtaking and we could view it from the entire back of the cabin. Sliding glass doors with screens even in the bedroom over looked the private lake. We was able to paddle the boat across the lake to the swim area where we enjoyed the Pavillion and swing. We fished and caught a huge catfish and a few sun fish. I should warn you not to hang your fish on a stringer because the ginormous turtles will eat them lol. The beavers visited every evening and entertained us. Every corner of the land had a different view and wildlife to keep us in awe. We never left the cabin because there was so much to do there. Hiking, hot tub, fire pit, grill, fishing, bird watching, nature watching, and best of all..no bugs! We definitely didn't want to leave. Thank you Andy for allowing us to experience this little piece of heaven. My mom had just passed in December and my husband has medical issues that prevent him from enjoying much in life these days. It's the first time in a very long time that I saw him smile and be at peace. We hope to visit again.
