Last minute booking for OU family weekend. If you like no light polution and surrounded by nature this is for you! Pretty much no frills, but beautiful surroundings. Check in was easy, Gentry is a very pleasant and polite host. Went over everything very well. Cell service is pretty sketchy on the drive, but the wifi at the canin is solid.
1. **Electrical Hazards**: Exposed wires at well head could lead to electrical shocks.
2. **Loose Deck and Steps**: Lack of rails around Loose Deck and Steps**: Lack of rails around the hot tub and deck increases the risk of falls, especially given the drop-off.
3. **Unsafe Kitchen Features**: Nail heads sticking out of the kitchen island could potentially injure children.
4. **Balcony Safety**: Easy access for children to the upper room balcony, with risks of falling over the rail.
5. **Steep Stairs**: The steep stairs to the upstairs pose a safety hazard.
6. **Door Gaps**: The back door had a significant gap, allowing drafts and bugs inside.
7. **Access Issues**: The full bath was only accessible through the main bedroom, which can be inconvenient for families.
Given these hazards, it seems reasonable that you chose not to stay at this property. I have provided detailed feedback to the property owner or manager. We stayed 1 night of 3 We cleaned and took out the trash and informed the property manager of our departure.I have asked for a partial refund and have no response from the owner.
Gentry is a very nice host. Lives near by and looks out for you and your stay. Smoke detectors not inside cabin. Most lightbulbs in bedroom don’t work. Roaches in shower (but bugs are bugs in the woods), patio chairs are in a bad bad way (bring your own), hot tub was very nice and clean, inside very well kept. Older structure so don’t come thinking you’re getting the ritz. If you don’t like nature, skip this one. I love nature, so the coyotes, frogs, and birds were a welcomed sound. Also, the shared parking with cabin next door is t great. They park in same drive as you so the in and out can be annoying with headlights at night.
My husband and i loved this cabin. Then we had friends come the next day and they loved it. It was quiet, no cars, no light pollution so you could really see the stars while in the hot tub. My dog loved being able to have area to run and explore. Our host Gentry was friendly, quick to respond to any questions, concerns, or problems we had. We did not have any problems except one night the power went out. It was a very cold night. We ended up leaving a day early but Gentry did reimburse us for the night not used. He did get power restored but we were already 1 hour away from the property. We are planning to stay again next yr. If you need firewood...Ask Gentry! The trash receptacle is at the cabin next door. You will have everything you need and shopping is only 24 mins away if you do need more. Disclaimer: You are in a cabin in the woods and hills of Hocking Hills Ohio...There will be bugs. It is NOT a big deal! Since it was warmer there than in Indiana...We saw stink bugs, ladybugs and the occasional fly...nothing else. Once again...It's NOT that big of a deal! Moving on...Had a great time and will stay again. Thank You Gentry for your hospitality. The Reese's
Place was as pictured clean and easy to get to and was a great price and suited our needs. Our only issue was heat. Despite thermostat being set on 75 + we couldn't get the heat in the cabin up past 62* knocked a star off for this issue.
I was new to the area. The Chalet was 20-30 minutes from so many of the hiking spots I was hoping to check out. The cabin was clean, warm, and comfortable. It is older and the appliances while not new all worked. The hot tub was perfectly hot! It has one master bedroom and a great loft for bunking children. The host was very responsive to all my questions, especially when I was a little lost upon arrival, as it was in the dark in the woods. He responded immediately to help
Me get into the cabin address easily.

Big enough for our family group
I was thrown off by some of the pricing. The pictures posted is not how it looks anymore. Inside the cabin had a lot of potential to be extremely nice but it is lacking in general maintenance such as doors that wouldn’t open or close all the way. Cracks in door ways that let in a lot of bugs and the outside temperature. Windows were missing curtains which let a lot of light in when sleeping and very little privacy to the neighbors. Was only given 2 trash bags and 1 roll of toilet paper per bathroom and I had a large group for almost 5 days. The beds was very uncomfortable and the frames where falling apart. Again this property has some great potential.
I really enjoyed my stay. Gentry is the best. When we got to the cabin, the coffee pot that was in the listing was not there (needs updated pics as ones in the listing are old) and we had issues with the WiFi/TV. I contacted Gentry, he went and bought a new coffee maker and brought to us. Also fixed the WiFi/TV issues. More for a larger group, there was only 2 of us. Overall a nice stay.
Definitely not pet friendly!! No where for pets to go, no play, no grass, no outdoor trash can! Had to ask for a coffee pot and additional toilet paper! He brought the coffee pot which was filthy! No dining table as stated. Microwave was rusted on the inside! Outdoor furniture was filthy and ripped! Fire pit full of trash! Umbrella ready to fall apart! Picnic table full of bird poop! Window air units not shown in pictures of cabin.
Had a blast in Hocking Hills!! The host was very kind and made sure we had everything we needed. Overall we feel that we are going to make this a yearly thing!
The cabin was clean and in a great location close to old mans cave and Lake Hope was right down the road. My kids had a blast in the hot tub they didn't want to leave :)....Gentry the host was spectacular and quick to respond to any of our needs highly recommend!!!
The property was as described. We enjoyed ourselves, the only downfall was a shared driveway with the next door property. Close to all the sights, overall excellent.

Great host but the cabin was not clean
The host is very nice but there were hairs in the bed...a lot of hairs and unexpected bugs that arent just "in the woods" it has potential, just needs some TLC.
It was a great cabin to go and relax. Piece and quiet for sure. The hot tub was clean and so was everything in the cabin. Property owner is very nice abs accommodating. Would love to go back for longer!
