About this property

Campfire Recreation -The Lantern

All new construction, we built this luxury two-story cabin so you can share in our love of Hocking Hills. The Lantern features an indoor cinema theater with hi-fi sound system, custom-felted pool table lounge, a full kitchen set, and a fully stocked pond.
-We are located on 5 acres of secluded land. Conveniently located near Old Man’s Cave and Ash Cave. There is a vineyard/winery located less than a mile from the property. The view from our covered upper and lower porches will take you miles away from your troubles. Guests often spot owls, woodpeckers, turkey, raccoons, and deer wandering around the property. All of our exterior lighting can be turned off by the guest. This allows unparalleled stargazing on a clear night.

It was fun in the area just things wrong at cabin. The back rest on the patio chairs are broke . The bathroom sink is clogged the dryer does not work trash stacked next to the cabin between the cabin and fire pit. The bunk bed held together with ratchet straps

Response from VrboOwner on 13 July 2026
Unfortunate that these issues were not addressed during your stay. I am very responsive to my guests. I would have sent my maintenance crew to unclog the sink. I would have told you the lint screen in the dryer has to be removed before it will activate. If that wasn’t the issue, I could have given you the code to enter and use the dryer in the maintenance building. In March, a fallen tree completely destroyed our gazebo in the fire pit area. The new one was completed right before your stay. Cleanup has been ongoing with the wood and debris. I’m not sure if that is what you mean or if there was construction waste or something else. Regardless, if I had been made aware during your stay, it would have been addressed. The ratchet straps on the bunks are a fail safe. The bunks aren’t made to support very large adults or jumping kids. The hidden straps make sure there isn’t a failure the screws couldn’t prevent. Those should not have affected the quality of the stay. I will remove the backs from the stools. These are metal stools with back on them. The backs weren’t of great strength. Guests lean back and they bend. There are other seating options, both inside and outside.

It was a very nice stay except the sleeping arrangement.It was a distance from town very secluded,which I enjoyed.It is more for 5 adults and a few kids.We had 8 adults .The beds we’re not suitable for three of us only because two were bunk beds not sturdy and the other was a pull out couch very uncomfortable because of the bars.It was a beautiful home.We weren’t able to use the firepit and unable to use the pool table it’s really used .The hot tub and pond were nice.There was also had a very nice movie theater and a grill also a porch swing.The blankets and pillows smelled like mildew .We’re not dried properly .Overall .It was still a nice property and would stay again just with fewer people.They were very kind and attentive.I do wish check out would’ve been at noon instead of 10am.That would be nice not to be rushed.But it worked out we had a good trip.

Entertaining!!

A great cabin with plenty of entertainment. We only had a 2 day stay and unfortunately the day we planned on hiking, was the day it was cold and raining. But the cabin had plenty to keep busy so no one got bored. Absolutely loved the movie theater room, and the kids got the biggest kick out of the popcorn maker. We will definitely stay again.

Fun Family Stay

This property was beautiful! Secluded but close enough to everything we wanted to do. The movie room was a hit with the whole family! We enjoyed the gas fire pit, skipping rocks on the pond and visit from the friendly neighbor's dog Checkers. :) He likes to take a dip in the pond from time to time and it was a hilarious, fun memory! We loved our stay, the kids are already asking when we can go back.

Beware! Dirty and unsafe. Not as described.

Not worth the 3k we spent. Dirty laundry was left in the dryer. When I texted the owner. He sent the cleaning crew, one guy, back to the house. He took all the laundry and through it in his truck. He never said a word. We had to continually wash all week because he didn’t leave us with much and he never came back with the cleaned laundry. Hot tub: my husband spent hours cleaning It was disgusting. Green scum; lots of hair in the filter and a broken piece of pipe at the bottom and a floating bandaid. How did no one see this? 2 chlorine tabs thrown in (the water was not changed) filter was vile. barbecue grill (which had food left in it) was right above the hot tub. So all the grease dripped on the lid. The mechanism for the lid broken. Security camera pointed at the hot tub. (No privacy) The charcoal grill broken (stuck under the porch). The fire pit had trash, food all around it. The fully stocked pond(LOL really?) full of overgrowth. Kitchen: everything is dirty, dead bugs in the drawers. Fully stocked? Is a joke. No cleaning products at all. Empty aluminum foil container. One tide pod for the laundry. (We stayed 6 days). The pots were dirty, burn on, damaged and greasy. All the utensils had melted spots all knifes were dull (we had to go and buy a knife). Bedrooms I would have rather slept on the floor very uncomfortable.Under the couches was food, empty bottles, dog hair, dust and more dead bugs. Felt unsafe when maintenance just showed up midweek to “look around”. Wth?

Beautiful Cabin!

My spouse and I enjoyed our stay. The cabin is a bit of a drive from activities in the area but still worth it and very peaceful! Was nice to sit and drink our coffee on the porch in the morning. Accommodations are very nice, great activities for families. The Theater Room was well done and very nice!

Host profile image
The beautiful Hocking Hills area has much to offer. Our goal is to get guests close to the action, while also offering a secluded and quiet place to return to. Our guests agree the property is a special place where lifelong memories are made.

Why they chose this property

Fell in love with this property the minute I stepped onto it. It is very secluded, while still close to all the Hocking Hills region of Ohio has to offer. There is a tranquil feel to this place that seems far removed from the hassles of everyday life.

What makes this property unique

We offer a full size theater room, fishing pond, hot tub, and pool table all on site. Getting around to the attractions in the Hocking Hills is easy. The entire 5 acre property you have all to yourself.
