About this property
Hillside Retreat-Hot Tub · Game Room · Sleeps 12 - 4BD/5BA - 2 min to Rock House
Looking for a place where everyone: the kids, the hot tub soakers, the hikers, board game players and table tennis masters and the ones who just want to sit by a fire — actually have a great time? Guess you just found it.
Hillside Retreat is a spacious, upscale 4-bedroom, 5-bathroom home tucked into the wooded hills of Laurelville — right in the heart of Hocking Hills. Thoughtfully designed for groups of up to 12, it gives everyone room to gather and room to disappear. The result? Real memories, zero friction.

WHAT YOU'RE WALKING INTO
The moment you pull up (and you can bring up to 6 vehicles), the stress of the drive is already fading. Step inside and you'll find an open-concept main floor built around a massive kitchen and a dining table that fits all 12 of you. The gas fireplace is lit, the hot tub is hot, and someone's already claimed the one of the sectionals.
* Hot Tub — Top-rated by guests. Soak under Ohio stars after a day on the trails. * Game Room (New for 2026) — Pool table, ping pong, cornhole. Enough said. * Gas Fireplace + Fire Pit — Two ways to end a perfect evening. * Chef's Kitchen — Fully stocked. Pots, pans, plates, prep tools — everything for real meals. * Two Living Areas + Loft — The football crew doesn't have to fight the card players. Everyone wins. * 65"/55" Roku TVs throughout — Easy guest-mode login. No fumbling with passwords. * High-Speed WiFi — For those who need it and those who forget to use it. * Gas Grill — Because someone always wants to grill.

THE BEDROOMS
Four bedrooms, four full bathrooms, and a half bath. No waiting. No sharing. No drama.
The King Suite — King bed, private sitting room with full-size sleeper sofa (sleeps 4), en-suite bathroom with soaking tub. The obvious choice for whoever planned the trip. Dueling Queens — Two queen beds, walk-in closet, private vanity with sink. Ideal for sharing without actually sharing. The Queen — One queen bed, walk-in closet. Quiet and cozy. The Twins — Two twin beds. Perfect for the kids or the lightest packers.
Every room comes stocked with extra blankets, hangers, box fans, and space heaters — because we've thought about it.

A DAY AT HILLSIDE RETREAT
Wake up to nothing but trees and birdsong. Make breakfast in a kitchen that can actually handle it. Hit the trails. Come home to the hot tub, the game room, and a fire pit that's just waiting for someone to start a s'more argument. Fall asleep in a real bed with real linens.
Wake & Repeat until your heart is content!
