Shipping Container Cabin

NUMBER 6 and NEWEST! The Ellwood Box Hop is a single story, minimal Mid-Century box hop which was designed to span a ravine that is directly over a waterfall! The Ellwood is named after an influential designer based out of LA in the 70’s who was known for his minimal steel and glass (couldn’t be more box hop) designs, Craig Ellwood.

The Hocking Hills is an area of the Allegheny Plateau in Appalachian Ohio, primarily in Hocking County, that features cliffs, gorges, rock shelters, and waterfalls. The relatively extreme topography in this area is due to the Blackhand Sandstone (so named because of Native American graphics on the formation near Newark, Ohio), a particular formation that is thick, hard and weather-resistant, and so forms high cliffs and narrow, deep gorges.

The home can be accessed with a key in a lockbox next to the door.

Although everything is on one story, this home is a jaw dropper. Spanning the seasonal waterfall, you are suspended in the air overlooking the waterfalls edge, into the deep ravine below. Did we mention that there is a glass floor inside? From inside you can look out 3 large panoramic windows to the expansive ravine and waterfalls edge, OR you can look beneath your feet to catch a glimpse of the water before it tumbles over the edge.

INSIDE HIGHLIGHTS:
Two bedrooms; 2 full size beds
One full bathroom
Glass floor
Full kitchen stocked with cookware & serving dishes
Washer and dryer
Air mattress (queen) available

The third Box Hop on the 75 acres, the Ellwood, is situated towards the top of the property and spans a ravine, suspended over a waterfall. The house is absolutely breathtaking in all seasons as you can watch the water tumble over the falls in spring/summer or see them completely frozen into majestic pieces of art in the winter.

There is no shortage of views at this hop and you can easily hike your way towards the marked trails near the other canyon on the property to see the larger cave and waterfall. This house is very secluded and peaceful. A fan favorite by far.

OUTSIDE HIGHLIGHTS:
Deck overlooking the ravine with waterfall
Outdoor fire pit
Gas grill
Hot tub
Trails and waterfall on property to hike and explore

So cozy!
We could not have asked for a more wonderful place to enjoy a low-key Thanksgiving! The location is great - close to shops/coffee and all the main hiking trails. The hardest part was actually getting ourselves to leave the place as they have created a very cozy vibe. We will definitely stay at another box hop property again!

Amazing place!!
This place was absolutely amazing!! We loved the hot tub and the beautiful surroundings!! We would love to come back in the summer so we could hike!! The only thing I would suggest was that the furniture in the living room be more comfortable.

Beautiful!
We had such a great time spending our anniversary here! The views were beautiful and so was The Ellwood. We had a little trouble finding it, but the Boxhop staff kindly guided us to where we needed to be. I would highly recommend staying here!

So relaxing
We had the perfect stay at the Ellwood! Our family of four visited to kick off summer break and couldn’t have enjoyed it more. The property is amazing and gives you the feel of nearby trails without the crowds. I loved being able to hear the babbling water Running below and can’t say enough how much I loved the property. We had everything we needed and only left once to go eat. We had the perfect stay!

We loved our stay. The host was very responsive when we submitted a query. We do have some suggestions or improvements, but nothing that seriously detracted from our stay.

Highly Recommended Stay!
Ended up booking the Ellwood Box Hop for a night with my partner. The place was absolutely perfect for the two of us (though I could easily see us having 2 more friends come along next time!) It was extremely cozy with the most spectacular views of the woods. The amenities offered everything we needed to just relax & unwind. Also the decor was SO well done - it really added to the experience. Definitely would stay here again & look into booking some of the other properties!

Best weekend ever!!
We absolutely loved this place. The water was flowing through the rocks down the hill. You could hear the water flowing it was so peaceful and we had the most relaxing weekend we’ve ever had. Did some sightseeing and this area is full of nature and very cool shops. Oasis coffee at the bottom of the hill has very good coffee and small breakfast bites. We will be staying again.

The Ellwood Box Hop Oct 2023
The Ellwood was beautiful! The perfect get away surrounded by trees on top of a ravine. Great size for my family. We listened to the records inside and enjoyed the hot tub & the Solo stove outside. Loved all the windows. Laying in bed you feel like you are sleeping outside (but without a tent blocking your view of the outdoors), staring at all the trees in front of you. so cool! Highly recommend!

Great Experience!
We loved everything about the Ellwood! It was beautiful and unique! We stayed during a very rainy time which made it really neat to stay over the waterfall. The one area of improvement I have is to elevate the comfort level to the same level of the beauty they have curated. The Ellwood is missing some basics like tissues, extra blankets to snuggle up with at the TV, and good rugs at the door (we stayed during a very rainy time so we dragged in a lot of mud). These are small details but would really put everything even more above and beyond!

We loved it so much! Very secluded and private. We really enjoyed the record player, so much so that we went to the nearby antique store and bought a few more records!

The Ellwood is VIBES !
Like our visit to the OG last fall, our stay at The Ellwood was amazing!! The space is incredibly well thought out and the decor is primo! We had everything we needed and then some (except water on the fall LOL). I would say that the bed type is not one we prefer but we made due. I also think a bath mat for stepping out of the shower would be a good addition. We LOVED the box hop guest bag and the goodies. That’s a new thing since we stayed with you last. Really nice touch. I see us trying to collect all the pins. Love watching your family and your business grow on Instagram. We drove up to get a sneak peek of The 75 while we were next door , since I watched you build that online. Absolutely gorgeous!! Wish we could get married again. ;)

Amazing stay!
We absolutely loved our two night anniversary trip. The Ellwood was beautifully decorated, beds were comfortable, hot tub was great, and the kitchen had everything we needed to make our meals. We will definitely be back!

Perfect Mother-Duaghter weekend hopper!
Beautiful and so unique! A true nature oasis with its wonderful natural light through perfectly placed windows! The space is breathtaking, the amenities plenty and the location just quiet enough yet close to any modern conveniences you may choose to utilize outside of the hopper. My daughter loved using the hot tub each evening and waking up to view the waterfall from above (fairly dry for us during our trip yet still magical to watch the wildlife and bugs below us). This is our second box hop (we have enjoyed the Boho and Ellwood now) and I would say that this one is my preferred location for travel to and from during the day. Thank you for another memorable trip for my daughter and I!
