An amazing getaway

We had such a nice time at this property. It was extremely clean and had everything we needed. We were there for three nights, and I slept better than I have in months. Rarely do I have a nights' sleep where I do not wake up several times. It was relaxing and peaceful. I don't have a single negative thing to say about our stay. We loved the pond, and the setting in general. We would not hesitate to stay there again!

Perfect getaway!

We chose this cabin to celebrate our 54th anniversary…and it was the perfect choice! The cabin was so nice, and met all of our needs! We spent nearly all of our time right there! The pond was our evening entertainment, catching so many fish and being entertained by those little pond frogs! It was just the best place to relax and enjoy the tranquility. And…bonus…I had the best night’s sleep I’ve had in years! We give this cabin the highest recommendations!

Excellent place, terrible bed

Cabin and location was excellent. ONLY complaint would be the bed. It was terrible. Makes tons of noises on the slightest moves. I highly recommend replacing it. Other than that, stay was excellent.

Nice Cabin

This is a very clean, one bedroom cabin. The property isn't as private as I would have thought. Owner lives at the end of the driveway and has cameras as well as what I think is a motion sensor on the driveway. You can see his home and a neighbor cabin from the porch. It is a quiet location with plenty of wildlife and a good front porch. You are within 10-15 minutes of everything good in the area.

Perfect for a romantic getaway

My fiancee and I stayed here for our anniversary. We loved it! It was so quiet and beautiful. We also loved being so close to everything. The place was spotless and we had everything we needed. The pond and fire pit area were perfect for relaxing together and we loved jumping in the hot tub after a long hike. I would love to come back! If I did, I would bring a couple extra pillows and a blanket. The only suggestion I have is to have a sponge there for doing dishes, but that's just nitpicking. We had a wonderful time!

Extremely clean, bad bed

The property was very peaceful. My GPS told me I was there after I passed it so a little trouble finding it at first. Unfortunately, the bed was terrible, we chose to leave a night early instead of trying to sleep in that bed for a third restless night. Overall it was a very cute and clean cabin but having the rules posted everywhere was s bit much but I do understand why they are.

Very Nice Place

Me and my wife chose this place for our anniversary. We were looking for seclusion and close proximity to the hocking hills attractions. We were very satisfied to both. Not more than a 20 min drive to anywhere we went. The pond was a wonderful pass time. Seclusion was nice we could barely hear traffic and with the leaves the cabin that was nearby we were only lucky enough to catch a glimpse of a pc of it in the right spot. The pictures of the cabin really don't doit justice. We were nervous about the cleanliness but upon arrival we were both excited for our weekend to begin. Didn't think we would use the hot tub but after a day's walk it was very nice and clean to relax in. If i had to complain I would say not having some of the amenities like toilet paper, paper towel, and only two towels as the sight states are a little bit of a burden. (btw there was a roll of pt, tp, and extra towels when we showed up, but we packed extra) for packing purposes. I also know the purpose of the lights around the firepit, but it does damper the view for stargazing. Great stay thanks for having us!!

You can’t beat the location of this place if you want something somewhat secluded but close to everything. It’s about 15ish mins from all the trails
