About this property

Elk - Hosted by The Chalets

A secluded wooded setting in Ohio's Hocking Hills, with views enjoyed from the wrap-around deck, the hot-tub or the wall of windows along the open-concept, vaulted, living area. The massive chimney is made of local river rocks. Queen bedroom on main floor and a queen bed in loft. (Loft is accessed by a rustic-styled ladder – which is fun for some of us, but not recommended for guests with physical limitations or for children.) Wood-burning fireplace and charcoal grill. Satellite tv and DVD player. But no Wi-Fi available at this location. Also, mobile-phone coverage is spotty – so use your car’s GPS. (There is a land-line phone.)

ELK

We really enjoyed our time at the Elk. It is a beautiful little cabin with everything you need. It has A/C, not mentioned in the description. The online pictures are accurate but being there in person is even better.

The Elk Hocking Hills

The cabin was cute and very convenient to the Hocking Hills attractions. We loved that it was very secluded and the "right size" for the three adults. The only thing that could be more clear is that nothing is supplied except the bare minimum. We had to go buy paper towels and coffee filters. Also, it may already be listed, but the coffee maker is not a Keurig. We had to go buy regular ground coffee.

Hiking

We camped three years ago and this was a last minute trip. Super easy to book and the place was perfect for just the two of us. Close to trails. Plenty of towels and toilet paper. Hot tub was a nice addition.

Wonderful property set in the woods. Private, quite just what we were hoping for. Unavoidable issue with our cabin was met with incredibly quick response by staff and maintenance. Wonderful stay, wonderful staff.

We will be back!

We loved this cabin! We were impressed with how clean & new everything was! The upstairs bedroom loft with the view was awesome. We only left it to enjoy the hot tub, build a fire & check out the huge back deck. We plan to return in the spring when we can stay longer. We did appreciate how private the space was & yet you’re not secluded & we had phone service the whole weekend. Great getaway!

Don’t trust host.

We checked in for our honeymoon, dropped our bags and left to get dinner for about an hour and came back. When unlocking the door we noticed a bug on the house which isn’t unusual however it turned out to be a cockroach. Freaked out and disgusted we had to leave our wedding cake behind and find a hotel after vigorously checking our belongings. The host refused and still refuses to give us a refund due to the roach being on the outside of the building and not on the inside. He acknowledged it was a cockroach and implied he knew ahead of time about roaches. We made a case with the health department and have yet to see our refund; honeymoon cut short and a five hour drive home.

Awesome cabin in the woods

The cabin was perfect for our family of 4 to enjoy a long weekend of hiking. All the main trails are nearby. The secluded location made us feel like we were off the grid, but still had the necessary amenities to be comfortable. We’d stay here again if we make it back to Hocking Hills.

Great little hide away

Overall, great little place to stay. We decided in the future to go with something a little larger as we felt a little claustrophobic. Otherwise, the maintenance and cleanliness were perfect. Close to all the trails and getting that hiking experience!

Cozy but super smelly

Cabin was much smaller then it appeared on line. It smelled very smoky when arriving. Bed and linens smelled sour, pillows and bed was terribly uncomfortable. Went out to eat due to the smell and ended leaving next morning at 6:30 to drive 3 hours home. Disappointing trip

Refreshing wooded view

We hiked multiple trails with our dog on her pet vacation. Saw beautiful waterfalls, cliffs, and caves all in state parks near the cabin. In the evenings we enjoyed the hot tub and the deck facing the woods and had a couple of fires in the large stone fireplace.

Birthday getaway for 2

Great cabin. Very clean and had plenty of cookware however, the eyes of the stove were crooked and made cooking slightly difficult. Otherwise it was a great stay. We will definitely be back!
