About this property

Luxury-Hawk's Nest Cabin-Forest View-Cabin-Private Bathroom

The Hawk's Nest Cabin is nestled in the rolling hills of Southeast, Ohio while still remaining close to nearby restaurants, shops, and local attractions. The cabin boasts 3 comfortable bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a large living space, and a spacious kitchen. Traveling is a breeze when you stay with us as the lodge is fully equipped with great amenities. Property offers an outdoor hot tub, fire pit, and great quality time. State Parks, lakes, canoe & kayaking, ziplining and so much more all located within a short distance from the property.
Guests will follow forest covered, hilly back roads until they come to a charming neighborhood in the rolling hills where the Hawk’s Nest Cabin is located. Guests are welcomed by a beautifully manicured 7-acre property that is home to two additional cabins – the Eagle’s Landing Cabin and the Cozy Cabin. Guests can rent all three cabins for large group getaways! Following the long driveway straight back will take our guests to our rustic Hawk’s Nest Cabin nestled in the trees. Here, a delightful front porch with outdoor furniture and an additional covered outdoor space greets our guests. Guests can enjoy time outside having cookouts, eating around the picnic table, or relaxing in the warm Jacuzzi. The hot tub is located under a pavilion so our guests can enjoy it even when April showers or winter snowstorms come through! One of the best features of the outdoor space is the newly renovated gravel fire pit with Adirondack chairs, benches, tables, and a swing.

Hot tub did not work for most of the time. Time to replace or provide details of no refund policy clearly. Overcharge because graduation weekend at Ohio. Beware. 84 temp at check in. Very frustrating as every cabin has a hot tub!!! In the area
Stayed 2 nights in May 2026
Response from VrboOwner on 6 May 2026
We appreciate your review about your stay. The hot tub was emptied & refilled for cleaning & sanitation purposes prior to your arrival. It does state in our policies that it may be heating upon arrival. Hot tubs heat 2-5 degrees per hour. We never received a call throughout your stay that you were having issues. We advise guests to call us, if needed, as we’re local & happy to help. Our team checked the hot tub immediately after your departure as we had other guests arriving & the hot tub temperature was at 104 degrees. We don’t overcharge for Ohio University graduation weekend. Guests know and agree to the price of the property when going through the booking process.

We recently stayed at this cabin and overall had a decent, mostly relaxing experience, though there were a few issues future guests should know about.Hot Tub:The hot tub was a bit disappointing. Only the vent jets worked, and the water never got very warm. It was around 30 degrees during our stay, so that may have played a part, but it still didn’t heat the way we expected.Check-In & Check-Out:Check-in was smooth and easy.Check-out was a little inconvenient because the store where we were supposed to drop off the key was locked—not open an hour before the official checkout time.Overall:Despite the issues, the cabin itself was cozy and relaxing. It gave us space to unwind, enjoy the quiet, and even dream about having our own cabin someday. With some repairs and more consistent maintenance, this place could easily become a great getaway spot.

Thanks for taking the time to review your stay at our Hawks Nest Cabin. We are sorry to hear that you did not have as enjoyable of a stay as you have wished. We strive to give our guests the best experience. We set our Hot Tubs around 102-104 degrees for guests. Upon arrival, it may still be in the heating process and due to your stay being in the winter, this could also effect the temperature. We encourage guests to reach out to us regarding issues that arise during their stay. We appreciate the feedback so we can do our best to help improve future guests stays.
