The place was just beautiful. It was our first time in Hocking Hills and I will absolutely be staying in Idyll Reserve again if making the trip to Logan during another season. The stay was top notch.

The South
Best family vacation yet! We have been so many places, but this was spectacular! Felt like we were in the Blue Ridge Mountains. So comfortable for our family of four. Curated beautifully, as a collector of mid century modern furniture for 30 years, I appreciated all of the design elements down to the books on the shelves! The sauna was the icing on the cake. We will be back for sure!

Great space to unwind!
The space and location were perfect! We especially liked the sauna after a day of hiking. One minor thing, bring coffee as the choice provided was not good.

GREAT but.....
We stayed only one night, and it was quite nice. Not perfect but nice.
My wife and I loved The South’s décor. We were very comfortable there and plan to return sometime.
There were many pluses but also some problems:
I could not figure out the sound system;
The TV did not work initially; broadband problems, I think, caused error messages; tried our own device but that, too, was difficult and we wasted a lot of time with that;
The sauna and hot tub were wonderful but lacked privacy; more/better screening from the road would have been nice;
The hot tub needs a railing or grab bar of some sort for use during entry/exit;
The refrigerator door does not open easily and seems to be scraping the wall;
We could not get the dishwasher to work; the instructions were hard to understand.
Great stay, would have been perfect 5 stars for an improved mattress (not memory foam or better quality).

Minimoon Relaxation
This is the place to unplug and recharge. The south house feels like you’re staying in a bougie treehouse. Two things: the incessant chiming of the refrigerator is annoying and the one mile trail around the property is more choose your own adventure than designated trail. Once you hit the cave you’re on your own to figure out how to finish the path. Would definitely come back to relax again!

About the host
Hosted by Laura DeVore
Hi! I'm your host Laura DeVore. I split my time between Zürich, Switzerland, and Columbus, Ohio.
Why they chose this property
Idyll Reserve has come together as a dream project for myself (your host, and operations), my brother Jay (development), and his wife Kelly (design). We imagined a retreat that married amazing architecture, a sustainable build and luxurious finishes in a truly unique natural setting. We, and a small army of talented craftspeople, have been working towards the grand opening for the last two years and we are beyond excited to be able to finally share it with you.
Please let us know if there is anything we can do to elevate your visit.
-Laura, Jay & Kelly DeVore

Each of the 5 cabins at Idyll Reserve features a truly sustainable build and use; EV chargers, eco-conscious hot tubs, high-end energy efficient appliances, natural fiber furnishings and organic linens. Our aim is to provide the most sustainable and luxurious getaway experience in Ohio.
The cabins can be rented individually, or all 5 together. We welcome hosting your intimate wedding, family reunion or small corporate retreat. Together the cabins sleep up to 30, and we offer a 10% discount for the rental of the entire property. Please message me for details.
