Lovely, welcoming getaway with a gorgeous view of the woods
Homey, hospitable, quiet, with a beautiful view. I appreciated the Bluetooth record player, the games, and the hot tub, but most of all the woods and hiking through them on a quiet trail.
Cabin was beautiful, clean, and in a great location for Hocking Hills activities. While there was another cabin on the property, it remained secluded. Check-in and check-out was simple.
Beautifully modern home! We really enjoyed the screened in porch and hot tub. The bed was so comfortable. It exceeded our expectations. We plan on coming back again for another stay.
The woods and birds are so amazing, and this is one of the most spacious 1 bedroom rentals we've stayed in, especially with the screened-in porch! Also the proximity to the winery/vineyards was such a great feature. We will definitely be back!
