About this property
Hocking Hills | Heated Indoor Pool, Hot Tub & NEW! Sauna | 7 BR, Sleeps 20
HOLIDAY GATHERINGS, HOCKING HILLS STYLE. Skip the scattered hotel rooms this Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Year's. Pool House Lodge puts your whole crew under one roof, with everyone in a real bed. Hike the fall foliage or the first snow at Old Man's Cave, then come home to a roaring stone fireplace, a dip in your private 82°F indoor pool, a stretch in the sauna, and s'mores around the fire pit as the holiday lights go up. One lodge, one price, and a group that's actually together, no matter what the weather does outside matter what the weather does outside.
Picture your group returning from a crisp hike at Old Man's Cave to a roaring stone fireplace, a dip in the 82°F private indoor pool, and a glowing evening around the smokeless fire pit surrounded by vibrant fall colors.
No one stuck on a couch. No fighting over the bathroom. No "I'm bored." Just several families finally together — and everyone happy.
One group. One price. Up to 20 guests.

Absolutely amazing!
Very large open concept floor plan. Clean, well kept home. Beautiful decor. Well thought out for the Christmas family get together. My family made memories and carried on some old traditions. I would highly recommend this property for a large family.
Our group of friends had an amazing stay at The Pool House Lodge! We are five families, friends for more than 30 years, who have taken a trip together for the past 10 years. The Pool House Lodge was perfect for our group (including kids from 5yo to 18yo) ☺️ There was plenty of space and so many amenities, and the location was beautiful. Double kitchen sinks, dishwashers, and washers and dryers, noise machines, fans, two outdoor hangout spaces, pool, hot tub, fire pit, a closet full of games; it was everything we needed and more! We were easily able to drive to many of the parks/hikes in Hocking Hills, and even found pizza delivery for one of our dinners. Highly recommend this property!
This home is beautiful and has all of the amenities you could want! The pool was a hit with the kids, and the hot tub was an even bigger hit with the adults. We really enjoyed playing games around the outdoor fireplace every evening. There were also all kinds of personal touches that we really appreciated - starting with an amazing coffee, tea, and hot chocolate bar (including marshmallows!) that was enjoyed by all 12 of us. The kitchen was fully stocked, including 2 sinks and 2 dishwashers! We walked the gnome trail twice - it was so beautiful at this time of year. We had so much fun family time, and it was a trip that we'll remember for a very long time!

Home Away From Home: Perfect place for our family Thanksgiving!!
Our family of 17 comes from three different states and with a growing group of children we find it harder and harder to gather at our parents. This year we tried something different and ended up meeting in Hocking Hocking Hills which was half way for all of us. We were SO GLAD we found Pool House Lodge! It was the perfect home away from home. Beautifully furnished and decorated to relax comfortably. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to make a delicious Thanksgiving dinner! The only thing that would have made it better was a second oven!! The cousins found it hard to stop their games, their swimming, or their fun in the hot tub long enough to come eat. We ventured out as 3 generations to hike the gnome trail. We didn’t know what to expect and after a rain storm the little stream proved challenging for grandma but we got her across! Some of the family took a trip to Ash Cave to experience a piece of Hocking Hills. They loved it! We all slept well and were thankful to find sound machines positioned in every bedroom. The house is a log cabin with lots of high ceilings so noise does travel. We were also delighted to have a management team that was extremely responsive when the fireplace stopped working and some “extras” were needed. 5 stars all around and we definitely recommend and will return!!
We had a great time. The property was in a rural area with no visible neighbors from the house so we felt like we had tons of privacy. The furnishings and amenities were exactly as described. I like that they let people leave behind unused non-perishable items — that saved us on something we forgot and we paid it forward with laundry detergent!
Everything was well-labeled and easy to find & operate. The family now wants to upgrade our fire pit to match this one! Hot tub was awesome. The multiple decks were awesome. And you’d think there would be bugs but no! Never had an issue at all even at night at the fire pit.
We didn’t realize when we booked it that there was so much to do in the area. What a delightful surprise! We had an outdoor adventure every day (boating, hiking etc.). The winery was an unexpected find too!
Overall we loved it. Great hosts and we would stay there again.
We wish we had known a bit earlier what the process would be for check in. I was the person making the arrangements but due to work travel I arrived last and was on a plane when the email arrived with the code. My husband had to call VRBO to figure it out. If we’d known in advance it would come shortly before check in time via email that would have been helpful. If that process had been communicated to me I missed it.

Perfect location for our family to meet and enjoy this beautiful cabin!
From the booking through the months of our planning this was exactly as promised. The cabin was impeccable with everything we needed. The owners have given great thought to every aspect of a comfortable and safe space. Definitely some of our favorite family moments. We were impressed by the staff who answered questions and those who cleaned and maintained the property. Well Done!!!

Amazing experience!
The property is very well laid out and planed for wheelchair access. We had multiple persons with walkers and it was smooth sailing. We enjoyed the pool, hot tub, and sitting on the deck all day long. Highly recommend and we look forward to our return.

Perfect Large Family Stay
We stayed with our family (19 people) and it was perfect. Plenty of room to spread out. Clean. We ended up not even exploring Hocking Hills because there was so much to do at the house that we stayed there the whole time. The kids loved the pool, gnome hike, and games. Everyone loved it and we would definitely stay again.

Pool House Lodge
We had an amazing experience! The pool was great for the days when it got way too cold for hiking in Hocking Hills. The kids got a great kick out of the gnome trail. Plenty of games and puzzles to play with available.

Beautiful Home!
This place was amazing! There wasn't nothing that wasnt thought of. We planned this stay for our brother who is can only get around by a power chair. He was so excited that he could around the house and outside. Every other place we have rented he was only able to get into a living room and his bedroom.
There is 3 full bathrooms that was handicap accessible. He light up when he was even able to get into the game room with the kids. The gnome, walking trail was a peaceful get away from it all, and quite the workout. ❤️
The kids loved the swimming and game room, adults loved the covered porches and fire pit. Our whole stay was absolutely WONDERFUL!
We will be back! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Take care of you very well
It is a great place to stay for large families. It has plenty of room to sit together for meals, for game time, and for just being together. But plenty of space to get away on your own. The inside pool was great. Kids loved it . Hot tub was great too. They take security seriously so the kids can’t get into the pool without the parents knowing . The trail was fun and the kids enjoyed looking for the gnomes . It was great having 2 dishwashers and three washers and dryers. We used them all. They had plenty of dishes, pots and pans , and towels . We had a problem with the ice machine and they came right over with extra ice till they could get it fixed. I do recommend this place for a great get away for families . Ps. I spend lots of time looking for just the right house 😁

The Perfect Place to Relax and Unwind
We had the most wonderful stay at Pool House Lodge! Everything was perfect from start to finish. We were celebrating a birthday getaway and ended up spending most of our time at the lodge because it was so peaceful and relaxing—the days just flew by. We really enjoyed the hot tubs, the heated pool, and the beautiful surroundings. We also explored some local shops and visited a nearby winery, which made the trip even more special. It was truly a beautiful getaway, and we can’t wait to come back!

Amazing Property!!
What a perfect cabin for our extended family to all gather. You can tell there was so much thought put into every detail from kitchen appliances & games for kids, to noise machines and comfy beds in every bedroom. The hosts were wonderful to work with and provided excellent communication. The view and location of the cabin was perfect, and the little hike was a nice touch for our morning sunrise stroll. This place did not disappoint and we will for sure be back!

Great stay at amazing house
We recently stayed two nights at the Pool House Lodge with friends and was very happy with the property. It had something for everyone with an indoor pool, hot tub, game room, living room, two outdoor decks, fully stocked kitchen and coffee/hot chocolate bar. We walked up to the outdoor swing and enjoyed the view and quiet while sitting there. We wanted to hike the trail, but it started raining, so we spent time in the hammock on one of the covered decks. There was 11 adults and 2 kids and there was plenty of space to relax or do whatever you wanted. We went out to Stella's Mercantile (about 5-10 min down the road) and had a great BBQ sandwich, grilled cheese, and amazing toffee chip cookies. We had an awesome time and would stay here again.

Perfect girls getaway
Spending galantines weekend at the Pool House Lodge was an exceptional experience for a Winter getaway with my closet gals! We enjoyed our stay in robes & pajamas to just chillax and enjoy the hot tub during 20 degree temperatures and the onsite massage the owner arranged with local therapists was ideal! The accommodations, well designed & maintained, made for the best night of sleep I’ve had in months! The views from the cabin allowed moments of zen while sipping from the well stocked coffee bar. Pizza delivery made our game night fun & fulfilling. Definitely suggesting a return with for my annual sorority meetup - perfectly sized for the 13 of us!
The Pool House was the cleanest vacation home we have ever stayed in! We did some hiking around the area. The grandkids loved swimming in the pool. The hike through the woods very nice. The fire ring at night was relaxing and the views from the patio were beautiful as we saw some deer. Everyone agreed it was a great place to stay!
