Spacious spotless beautiful cabin with well stocked kitchen and bathrooms. Lots of extras: hot tub, fishing poles, fire pit. A perfect retreat for my family with hiking trails nearby. Excellent communication with the host.
Great property and countryside views. Far enough out of town to feel private and disconnected from the hum of everyday life. Yet, close enough for daily activities and conveniences. There was something for everyone with the morning coffee room, to the porch seats to watch nature, the deck by the pond, to the game room and hot tub. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend a visit of your own.
This was the cleanest cabin I have ever stayed in. Fully stocked, so many extras and special touches. Beautiful property and grounds. Would definitely stay here again!
It’s a great place to stay, hosts communicated well and cabin was clean, full of activities and games, and close enough to the town for conveniences, but still feeling secluded. Would strongly recommend.
The cabin was perfect! Clean, spacious, and well-stocked. We enjoyed the fishing pond, the well-equipped kitchen, and the games in the Buckeye basement. We could probably have stayed a week and not gotten bored.
Our family stayed last month and it was amazing! The cabin was so clean and had anything you would need. They left us a gift basket and a black bear stuffed animal for our granddaughter. Highly recommend and we will be staying again next year!
We had an amazing time here! Not only was this cabin beautiful but the little things that were set up there made our stay even better. We loved the s’mores basket for us to enjoy (we forgot our smore stuff). My daughter loved to fish and all the games! We will definitely stay here again!
Everything was wonderful, from the fully stocked kitchen with quality appliance, clean grill, beautiful cabin, great hot tub, and everything around. Pond has plenty of bluegill, and we caught several small mouth bass and even a few tilapia.
Beautiful location. Very well stocked with everything we needed. Comfortable. I’m old so I had a bit of trouble getting in but the owner was there to help me. Beary nice place
Greg and Erin have an amazing luxury log cabin! This was exactly west my family needed! We appreciate the small touches of things we wouldn’t have thought about. We can’t wait to go back!
We loved the property and appreciate how clean and festive it was upon our arrival. The kitchen had everything you could ever need and we loved the smores basket! Once we got the fireplace in motion we enjoyed a fire in it every day we were there along the outside fire ring by the hot tub. We had an amazing Thanksgiving vacation and would certainly come again. It would be nice for some high traffic carpeting in the basement :) to help cozy it up since there’s no tv in the main floor of the house.
Great family stay and play cabin. Many amenities, and host provided extras. We walked in to find: Easter eggs ready to hide for the kiddos, Gourmet Smore supplies, snack treats, popcorn, muffin mix with refrigerated ingredients, fishing supplies, hot tub, grill and great walking trail for the whole family. Kids loved the evening light show, catching fish, playing games and even got in some TV time with a Happy Feet DVD. Streaming music and places to hide and read are also available. Gaming in the basement was a big hit, especially the little Putt-Putt for the kiddos. Kudos to the Hosts for going all in to make our stay at BlackBearHoller relaxing and enjoyable.
The cabin delivered all I expected and more. Beautiful decorated with a comfy black bear theme, this cabin was a perfect setting for a family getaway. There is such attention to detail from the toiletries to the s'mores kit to the fishing rods/tackle/bait to a stocked spice cabinet to family indoor/outdoor games etc. I could go on and on. Whether the weather is sunny, raining, snowing etc this little piece of heaven has something to offer. Greg even messaged us about the meteor shower and where to look for it on Saturday evening. A great friend and family getaway! Highly recommend.
My husband and I absolutely loved it here! It is such a beautiful cabin and we fell in love with it from the moment we pulled in the drive. It has everything, plus more that you can even imagine. They thought of everything even down to lip balm and hair ties. The hot tub was amazing to sit in at night and enjoy all the sounds of nature, along with all the stars in the sky. It is so peaceful and relaxing. You will not want to leave. Everyday we did see some kind of wild life. The owner is amazing and did a fabulous job and is easy to correspond with. It is amazing and if we could rate it on the 5 stars it would definitely surpass it by 100.
We stayed here Dec 21-23 for our family Christmas and birthday celebration. The place was beautifully decorated with a Christmas tree, lights and lots of cool and unique items. The house was immaculately cleaned. We were pleased with how well stocked the kitchen and bathrooms were-literally everything one needs. The host even provides snacks and Smores fixins'. The grounds were lovely too. Even though it was 20 degrees out, we took a short hike around. We saw families of deers, hawks, other birds, and even a mink on the partially frozen pond. One highlight for many of us was the hot tub on the patio. We spent the evening in Cambridge enjoying the Christmas Dickens scenes, dinner at a nice local restaurant Theo's , and the courthouse light show. Then back to relax in the hot tub and watch the OSU football game in the basement , which BTW is stocked with tons of games to play! This was an amazing time in a home away from home!
This VRBO experience was a 10 out of 10 for sure. I was very impressed with the organization and specific written instructions for everything that was available for use in the cabin. Also, the amount of extra amenities were very helpful. The only thing anyone needs to bring to this cabin is food and drinks. Everything you need to prepare food or have fun was available. Unlimited amount of games, videos, tv access, hot tub, firewood, fishing supplies, linens, towels, cooking utensils/cookware, chairs, grill, multiple outdoor firepits. I have been to many rentals by owner and this one was by far the best set up I have every experienced. The owners spared no details. By the way, my 5 year old grandaughter and I stopped counting the number of bears in the cabin at 100. Not sure will you find all of those furnishings but super cool. We had a blast and I was more than pleased with the cabin and will be back in the future.
We travel alot of rentals this was by far our most favorite place. House super clean and more beautiful in person puctures dont do it justice. We had fun fishing caught andcreleased over 25 fish and a hugeee turtle lol Surprise. The hot tjb was wuper nice and amount of things to do in house was endless and everything was done wirh thought ans generosity. We were left smores fixi fs .condiments like mustard ketchup mayo spices and oil even gad bread buns...and left us some fruit a watermelon pineapple and cantelope and lil snacks soo thoughtful. Just bring your clothing and be ready to soak it up and leave relaxed.We already are planning winter and simmer trip but wanna do 7 and not 3 ...Best tome ever with my family and my mother..Thanks again and enjoy whoever comes to stay . I am looking forward to coming back to my bear holler new vacation place its number 1 in our book . ENJOY! Host is an amazing person and is there if need anything.
