The property was even more gorgeous than the pictures showed. Super peaceful if you're looking for quiet from your busy life. We're parents of 2 kiddos with support needs so this was the best reset for us. We definitely plan to go back, maybe in the summer so we can utilize the lake more

Secluded nice get away
We had a great time at the cabin. My husband and I stayed for 5 days. We didnt leave the property and didnt see a single person the whole time. The view is amazing and the property had plenty to do with the water and all the wooded trails. The only negative is the biggest bed at the cabin is a full size bed. If that doesnt bother you I would definitely book this cabin if you want aome peace and quiet.

Beautiful property, not easy with motorcycle
We loved this property! But the drive in was difficult on a motorcycle because of loose gravel and narrow lanes. Also, we could not carry firewood on the bike back to the cabin and wished there was firewood available at the cabin to use. Otherwise, the property is perfect for a relaxing weekend getaway. Highly recommend!

Small cabin by a Gorgeous lake
We enjoyed our summer weekend getaway by the lake. The cabin is set near the most beautiful lake, has a huge deck overlooking the lake, but the cabin itself is rather small. Pros: Beautiful, private lake all to yourself. Nice picnic area on the other side, great fishing and boating. Huge deck overlooking the lake. Outdoor grill is fairly new. Nice fire pit area near the lake. The cabin feels secluded, but is actually very close to the town in case you need supplies. It was a clean property, well maintained. Internet was fast and TV had all the channels one would want. Cons: The cabin is very small. The deck is probably larger than the cabin itself. Kitchen appliances are definitely compact-sized, was challenging to cook anything. I assume one can sleep 6 there, but it would be a tight fit for sure. We were lucky to have very nice weather as we would have not enjoyed being stuck inside. Also, both propane tanks provided were at least 75% used, barely made it work.

Like having our own private lake and park!
This was our first truly secluded vacation. It was utterly peaceful and fun. The trails were great for an activity. The firepit was great by the water and we all enjoyed cruising around in the boat. The property was very clean and everything was in good working order. We brought lots of food and had ourselves some great meals at the outdoor dining table. And best o of all, they're were very few bugs to bother our picnic and literally no mosquitoes. Quite a lot of butterflies and dragonflies! Super place. We'd stay again!

Peaceful and secluded cabin
This is such a perfect little cabin tucked away in the woods, with 2 nice decks overlooking a beautiful pond with turtles and fish swimming about. I loved sipping my coffee in the morning, all awhile listening to the birds and frogs.My boys stayed with me and they said it was definately one of their favorite cabins we had booked. We didn't use the hot tub, because it was hot and humid outside. The cabin came with a paddleboat and canoe also, but we didn't end up using the paddleboat. We did try the canoe, which was in need of some repairs. There was screws coming out, and one of the middle benches was coming off, and canoe had a small hole at the top, but it was high enough to where no water could get in. We canoed across the lake, but was not great with the rowing, and the humidity just wore us out, so we didnt stay out long. We were able to catch a few crappies in the pond. This cabin is not far from grocery stores, dining, and just about 25 minutes away from HockingHills Ohio. Thank you for letting us stay at your cabin, we loved the stay!!

Fishing was pretty good for bass and crappie, place has everything you need or want. Hot tub and your own private trails were fantastic. The peddle boat was good for fishing and cruising around. We did not see a single person while staying there and only heard the birds chirp and the owls hoot.

True to relaxation as promised!
Such a sweet cabin backed up to a beautiful lake. Very serene, we loved the place. Could use a little freshening up, i.e. area carpets, curtains, some attention to cooking pans, boat. The hot tub was such an enjoyable experience, well kept, clean. So nice to have some provisions, coffee, tea, flour, sugar, etc. Very, very thoughtful. Just 3 miles to small town for pizza or supplies. Otherwise felt like we were pleasantly secluded, which was the plan. Great instructions, no need to contact Andy with issues. Thank you for a great stay!

My partner and I took a trip here for the weekend close to Christmas. The area is so quiet and secluded. We stopped for pizza on the way at mamma renies and it was 10/10. Watched the sunrise through our bedroom window and got coffee up town. The trails were an added bonus even though hocking hill is only 25 min away.

Perfect Weekend Getaway!
The property was a little further away from Hocking Hills than originally anticipated, but was located close to essentials (i.e. pizza and groceries). This was the perfect weekend getaway for our family. The view was beautiful and our boys had fun fishing, roasting marshmallows and wandering around the woods. Such a great property!

Our Favorite Getaway
This was our second time staying at this cabin and we fell even more in love with it. Our first visit was in late summer and this visit in early winter/end of fall had just as many amazing things to do. The cabin is so thoughtful and intimate and unbelievably cozy. You have the most amazing views both inside and outside. It is so secluded and really feels like you’re in your own world. Both times we’ve gone paddleboarding and it’s such a perfect lake. We got to explore all the trails on this visit and they are well paved and beautiful, we went multiple hikes and I still don’t think we hit all the trails! Andy is such an amazing host and always available for any questions. We are already looking to plan our next trip here, we love it so much we want to try and go 4 times a year!

This is my favorite cabin to stay at when I go to Hocking Hills. I love how hidden it is. It is pretty small but that doesn’t bother me. With the hot tub, fire pit, trails, and lake with 2 boats there’s no reason to be stuck inside. I wouldn’t change 1 thing about this place!

Much needed time away
My husband and I were looking for a secluded property for much needed relaxation. When I saw the private lake in the middle of 100 acres, I knew I found the right place. It is absolutely breathtaking. We had guests for dinner one night and after dinner we all enjoyed a campfire in the fire pit located by the water. We also enjoyed the hot tub every morning before we ate breakfast on the amazing deck. If you are looking for a secluded spot that has a lot of ambiance, this is it! You couldn’t ask for a better host. Andy was amazing to work with. ❤️❤️
