A great spot for a family weekend getaway

We had a great time exploring Hockings Hills area from this ‘home base.’ The cabin was wonderful for our group, giving everyone space to spread out but a comfortable place to hang together, too.

Great property for a family vacation.

We enjoyed our stay at this property. We really enjoyed the swimming pool and deck. Large house was very accommodating for our large family with enough beds and table room for everyone. It is a bit of a drive to Hocking Hills from here but that wasnt really a big problem.

Hocking Hills Hiking

This was a great place to stay for a family of hikers. Spent time hiking at Hocking Hills State Park and Lake Hope State Park. The house was centrally located between these parks. We hike in the morning, swim in the afternoon and then grill-out in the evening. Great times! The free WIFI was very handy as our phones had no signal on the Verizon network.

Great Family Vacation

This was a great cabin in the Hocking Hills area. The family really enjoyed the pool and Hot Tub. It really came in handy with the high temps we experienced. The only recommendation we would have would be to add storage capability in the bedrooms and kitchen areas
