Everything we could want was there! Everything was very clean as well! It was in the best location, very secluded, so you really felt like you were away from the busy life and able to breathe. They had all the games there which we definitely took advantage of and not a far drive from Hocking Hills. Definitely will be coming back to enjoy it again

This was a wonderful place that we enjoyed staying at. The driveway can be fun, but we have a 4wd truck, so it was not an issue. The cabin itself is very cozy. The only negative I could say would be that both the couch and bed have seen better days. They are both completely functional, just seem a little worn out.
