Great location and property. Needed some small touches. Floor was sticky when we came in. Need a floor or table lamp in the. Living room. The fan lights were too bright. Need a small chair in the bedroom. Very well maintained cabin. Loved the privacy and pond.

We absolutely love this cabin. We are definitely making this location our new yearly vacation spot. I will definitely say that the pictures that they have posted for this cabin definitely doesn’t show how awesome this cabin is.The cabin was extremely clean, it smelled good when you walked in, the driveway also had easy access for our motorcycle to get in and out very easily, and the building manager did let us know beforehand that it was motorcycle accessible, so that was wonderful information. The cabin was very spacious, especially for being a two person cabin, the bathroom was a good size, the accommodations that they give, including silverware, dishes, glasses, a clean fridge to store your food, and of course, the outdoor table, and the hot tub. We were a little disappointed about the string of lights around the fire, there were about 5 to 10 lightbulbs that weren’t working. If you plan on cooking any meals at the cabin, I would definitely recommend bringing a much larger pan, and steak knives. The steak knives were very dull and they didn’t have anything bigger than a 4 inch pan to cook anything in so definitely if you’re doing bacon for breakfast Plan on bringing a big pan to cook it on. There was plenty of soap, the complementary paper towels, and everything else in the kitchen was still wonderful.

Perfect getaway!

We chose this cabin to celebrate our 54th anniversary…and it was the perfect choice! The cabin was so nice, and met all of our needs! We spent nearly all of our time right there! The pond was our evening entertainment, catching so many fish and being entertained by those little pond frogs! It was just the best place to relax and enjoy the tranquility. And…bonus…I had the best night’s sleep I’ve had in years! We give this cabin the highest recommendations!

Nice Cabin

This is a very clean, one bedroom cabin. The property isn't as private as I would have thought. Owner lives at the end of the driveway and has cameras as well as what I think is a motion sensor on the driveway. You can see his home and a neighbor cabin from the porch. It is a quiet location with plenty of wildlife and a good front porch. You are within 10-15 minutes of everything good in the area.

Perfect for a romantic getaway

My fiancee and I stayed here for our anniversary. We loved it! It was so quiet and beautiful. We also loved being so close to everything. The place was spotless and we had everything we needed. The pond and fire pit area were perfect for relaxing together and we loved jumping in the hot tub after a long hike. I would love to come back! If I did, I would bring a couple extra pillows and a blanket. The only suggestion I have is to have a sponge there for doing dishes, but that's just nitpicking. We had a wonderful time!

Extremely clean, bad bed

The property was very peaceful. My GPS told me I was there after I passed it so a little trouble finding it at first. Unfortunately, the bed was terrible, we chose to leave a night early instead of trying to sleep in that bed for a third restless night. Overall it was a very cute and clean cabin but having the rules posted everywhere was s bit much but I do understand why they are.

Very Nice Place

Me and my wife chose this place for our anniversary. We were looking for seclusion and close proximity to the hocking hills attractions. We were very satisfied to both. Not more than a 20 min drive to anywhere we went. The pond was a wonderful pass time. Seclusion was nice we could barely hear traffic and with the leaves the cabin that was nearby we were only lucky enough to catch a glimpse of a pc of it in the right spot. The pictures of the cabin really don't doit justice. We were nervous about the cleanliness but upon arrival we were both excited for our weekend to begin. Didn't think we would use the hot tub but after a day's walk it was very nice and clean to relax in. If i had to complain I would say not having some of the amenities like toilet paper, paper towel, and only two towels as the sight states are a little bit of a burden. (btw there was a roll of pt, tp, and extra towels when we showed up, but we packed extra) for packing purposes. I also know the purpose of the lights around the firepit, but it does damper the view for stargazing. Great stay thanks for having us!!
