Overall, we liked the quiet and seclusion while still having towns close.

We liked the bungalow. It was just what we needed. The firepit was a favorite every night. There are some things that need addressed but will leave a more detailed review on another page.

The cabin was very nice and clean. It was a little off the beaten path. We would suggest some work on the road leading to the cabin.

The place was ideal and as pictured. The only issue is the hot tub needs to be cleaned better and more thoroughly . We didn't enjoy it fully due to it needing cleamed. Some plugs were not working as well and that was concerning as to how much dirt might have been clogging it. The temperature of it was wonderful and it was working fine. The string of lights that hang outside need replaced as well. Very dim compared to neighboring cabins. The ground path needs addressed as well very unlevel in a certain section. But there was a board with a nail on the ground and some of the fencing needs fixed. There was hair in the bathroom shower tiles when we arrived. And the fridge had some dirt where it doesn't get cleaned under the shelves. Just basic upkeep and a little more effort gave on cleaning and it would be perfect. We loved the firepit and kitchen to cook in. The blinds was fantastic to block light and have privacy. But we took advantage of the big windows for the sunrise!

The place was well prepped and looked as described. Would have loved to have WiFi and a TV. There was some mold on the bathroom ceiling due to no exhaust. Front door lock loose. Gnats were constantly flying around despite not having windows open and not going in and out. Just a little TLC needed.

The property was very nice overall, and we enjoyed our stay. The main drawback was the lack of reliable cell service, which made it difficult to use our phones during our visit. The location was excellent, with convenient access to Hocking Hills and nearby attractions and shops.There were also a few housekeeping details that could be improved. We noticed a significant amount of dust in the living room, cobwebs in the kitchen, and the windows appeared to need more thorough cleaning. Addressing these items would make the property even more enjoyable for future guests.

The cabin was perfect for the two of us - everything you would need! Hot tub was clean and hot upon arrival, which was really nice after a long drive. We lost power for a brief time and the hosts were right on contacting the power company and getting back to us with updates - power restored promptly as well! Highly recommend this property!
