Tranquil getaway

We ussually stay in logan, closer to the hiking trails, but this was so nice with the pond and the roomy accommodations, that the ride to the trails was no big deal. Also was a little fair while we were there which was really nice.

Girls weekend getaway

We had 11 women staying here for a relaxing weekend away with co-workers. We had more than enough space for everyone. We enjoyed the fire pit and hot tub. We also did some hiking near by at Ash Cave which was just a short drive away. Jolinda was easy to communicate with and always was quick with responses. We had a great time and would come back for future getaways!

Very happy with house and location

The Hocking Hills trails we visited were not very far. Downtown Nelsonville is very close and seems to have anything needed. The only thing I might suggest is maybe some notes/instructions on the TV’s. The TV’s in both living areas received different channels. We were only able to watch the Ohio State game on one TV. The other did not receive the channel. Probably some kind of setting. Not a big deal at all. I really have nothing bad to say. We had a great visit. Thanks!

Great stay! As listed. Group of 5. Plenty of space. Loved the porches, hot tub & the feel of being in nature. Lights around hot tub would be a benefit as it’s very dark. Would definitely recommend the property to others & would book again for next girls trip.

We chose this house because we were part of a big group tubing and didn't want a long drive after. We were very happy. It looked great online and better in person.It is deceiving how big the place is! We were really able to slread out and enjoy the amenities. Everything was stocked as you’d expect - towels, sheets, kitchen tool/appliances. We took advantage of the grill and hot tub. Hot tub was very clean!We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Dad’s weekend away

The location was very clean. Had plenty of room for everyone. The location was awesome, up a hill and secluded behind woods. There is one other home the hill but other than that you’ve got privacy. TVs in every room, but the main TV does have limited access to streaming apps, only YouTube and Netflix. No YouTube TV, Disney or Max. But overall great experience, very close to Nelsonville and Athens so had plenty of food options.

Lovely home

The house was perfect for our family of 5. There was plenty of room for each child to have their own space. The outdoor space was beautiful and the kids especially loved the hot tub and the pond. We would definitely return for another stay.
