The cabin had plenty of room for all of us and was very clean. I felt obligated to give the kids the larger room with the larger bathroom since it was the room that had two beds. I felt a little jealous of their luxury :) It was very quiet and peaceful in the area. The pricing was excellent off season! A couple of pieces of outdoor furniture need some attention but that will happen as things age and we did report it. Would defintiely stay there again!

Family trip to Hocking Hills

We enjoyed our stay at black bear lodge. The cabin was very secluded and quiet. We enjoyed using the hot tub in the evening after a long hike. The cabin was very spacious and clean. We would stay here again!

Black Bear Review

Loved the cleanliness of this property and the location. Will definitely go back to this property again. It was quiet and away from everything, but close enough to Nelsonville to run into town if needed. We recommend this if you just want some quiet time away or it would be great for a large group since there is plenty of space.

Short Trip

My family and I made a short trip to Hocking Hills for a few days and stayed at the Black Bear Lodge. Everything was as described and it's a beautiful home and property. The pool and hot tub were great and it was great that we were able to take our dogs with us. We would definitely recommend the Black Bear Lodge to others!

Stunning

This property exceeded expectations! Huge and spacious, very clean, and all the supplies/amenities you'll need for a comfortable stay. Very quiet and secluded. My friends and I loved to stare up at the stars in the hot tub after our long days of hiking in Hocking Hills.

Great price, nice location

I was not a fan of the check in process, would have preferred to simply go directly to the property instead of 15 minutes away to check in and out. The hot tub wasn’t the cleanest and the stove was iffy. But overall I would stay again due to price and location.

Family

We had the opportunity to spend a couple of days with our grandchildren and we chose black bear lodge in Nelsonville. The place was everything and more that was listed on VRBO.Everything was spotless, plenty of towels for everyone, the bedrooms were spacious and everyone had their own room. Family of 6 would definitely rent this property again. Thank you, the Carbone family!!

Clean, private & wonderful! Except the grill should be checked before the guest arrives. It was not hooked up properly. Needs lights by the pool around the side to see where you are walking. Had plenty of towels, utensils etc. Very nice place!!

Beautiful house and property. Little disappointed the fireplace wasn’t operational but no big deal. One bench in dining room was broke when we arrived but I notified the host and received a quick response. Our family had a fabulous time! Would highly recommend.

Lots of room, nice area

We stayed for two nights in February at this location. The bedrooms were decent size.The master bathroom is awesome with that huge tub. The kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans , however there is no Keurig here which we found odd. The wooden tables are amazing and we actually utilized the fireplace, which they provided the wood for and came in handy. Didn’t notice it the first night because we were baking but definitely noticed it the second night but there was no heat in the home and it was super chilly the morning we left. The temp controller would not make it kick on. We let rental company know when we returned the keys. Overall, Minus it being chilly in the home, it was a great family get away.

Beautiful cabin, very private

This cabin is gorgeous and extremely spacious! And SO CLEAN!! It's exactly as listed...the hot tub worked great, the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare all our meals. We really enjoyed the fireplace and they will deliver firewood so it is waiting for you upon arrival which was very convenient. Gorgeous master bath. Really big yard, nice patio area. We really enjoyed our stay. If I had to nitpick about anything it would be that I wished it was self check in with a lock box for convenience....with the days shorter and check in after 4 by the time we went to the place to pick up our key it was dark and finding the cabin wasn't easy. As a matter of fact we accidentally pulled into the driveway of a nearby property and an older woman came out with her arms crossed so i rolled the window down and said "I'm sorry, I think we're a little lost" to which she loudly replied "I don't give a s___ get the f___ off my land!" So that was pleasant....just don't make that mistake and you'll be fine lol

Really nice stay

This home is very nice and had everything needed to make our stay enjoyable, comfortable and convenient. We had a small family gathering for the holidays and enjoyed family meals, visiting and card playing each evening. We had our two dogs with us and there was plenty of yard space for them to explore. The location is great, very peaceful and quiet but close enough to both Nelsonville and Athens. The check in was fast and easy, but you have to stop in their local store/office to get checked in prior to going to the home and again to drop off the home key after your stay, a minor inconvenience. The home was very clean inside throughout and had all the needed amenities. The interior is well updated and all the wood work gives it a rustic cabin feel and it’s well furnished. It was decorated for Christmas time. The hot tub was functional but has wear and tear, we didn’t use it because it didn’t appear recently well cleaned. Not a big disappointment because we weren’t counting on using it. There were some dog piles between the pool and hot tub that had been missed or ignored by previous visitors. Overall we enjoyed our time at the home and would recommend it for a stay in the area, we would stay here again. Thank you First Choice

The cabin was wonderful. The pool and hot tub were clean as well as the rest of the cabin. The check in process went smooth until we were given directions to the cabin and the road we were told to take was closed and we had no service trying to get a hold of them to tell us where to go- a little frustrating start to the weekend. We paid for an early check in and ended up not even being able to get there until an half hour before our original check in time, partly because we got lost due to the directions we were given. Also, the beds were super uncomfortable. We both woke up with stiff backs after sleeping on those mattresses. Otherwise, it was a good experience! Would probably stay again if the mattresses improve!
