About this property

The Briar House-A modern retreat in Hocking Hills

Step into The Briar House and instantly unwind. Designed with intention and styled with warmth, this architecturally modern cabin offers a serene retreat nestled in nature. A dramatic wall of windows blurs the line between indoors and out, flooding the space with natural light and woodland views.

Perfect for a romantic getaway, The Briar House features an expansive open-concept layout with luxurious finishes throughout. Enjoy a full kitchen with a large island, a cozy yet refined living area, and a king-sized primary suite with an ensuite bathroom.

Outdoors, your private oasis includes a screened-in porch, a spacious deck, a hot tub under the stars, a firepit for slow evenings, and peaceful woodland trails right outside your door.

Thoughtfully designed for two, the cabin can comfortably accommodate up to four guests with a pull-out sofa bed. Whether you're celebrating something special or simply seeking stillness, The Briar House offers a stay that’s anything but ordinary.

More photos coming soon – but trust us, it's even better in person.

This 38 acre property is host to 3 cabins. You have access to trails that other guests can also use. The Briar House does share a driveway with The Hollow House but has its own parking and seclusion.

One sentence is hard to describe this place!

This property did not disappoint — not one detail was overlooked. The quality, thought, and care went into every inch of this home. Every corner was spotless — you could practically eat off the floors! Everything worked exactly as it should — from the smooth check-in to the well-equipped kitchen. A true 10/10 experience. We’ll be back without hesitation!

This property did not disappoint — not one detail was overlooked. From the moment we stepped inside, it was clear that quality, thought, and care went into every inch of this home. Nothing was cut short, forgotten, or half-done. The décor was stunning yet comfortable, blending style and warmth perfectly. Every corner was spotless — you could practically eat off the floors!Functionality? Spot-on. Everything worked exactly as it should — from the smooth check-in to the well-equipped kitchen. It’s obvious the owners take pride in making sure guests have a seamless, elevated experience.And the location? Unbeatable. If you’re looking for a place that delivers everything — beauty, comfort, cleanliness, and convenience — this is it. A true 10/10 experience. We’ll be back without hesitation!

Incredible!

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!
