Nice cute little cottage. Was a little bit of a drive for everything that we did in hocking hills, but it was worth it. You couldn’t beat the price and the comfort of the cottage. Would definitely recommend!

Nice place to stay w/ more than you expect
The best VRBO I’ve stayed at yet. This property manager was very thoughtful and left things there for you to use that other property managers don’t. Kitchen well supplied. Even an air fryer and a dishwasher! Nice hot tub with semi private back yard. Comfortable beds, but low ceilings. Loved the pool table. Thanks for a great stay!

Amazing property!
Everything was perfect. From the minute we stepped out of the car we were hit with how enchantingly calm the property is. A beautiful sunset greeted us and then we stepped inside to be blown away at how spacious and clean the house is. Tons of room to spread out, both inside and out. Plenty of towels to grab when you head out to the hot tub (which was so thoughtfully pre-warmed for us!). We had a blast playing billiards, we schooled our kids on the SNES games, and ended each night relaxing in the hot tub. The main Hocking Hills hike spots (Old Mans Cave, Rock House, Conkles Hollow) are about a 30min drive away. We liked Rock House the most! Took a breather by popping into the Visitors Center at Old Mans Cave (it's like a mini museum!) and wandered over to the Hocking Hills Lodge to grab a beer and see the snake talk a ranger was doing in the lobby. We drove into Logan for dinner at the Hungry Buffalo one night (20 mins away) and enjoyed mexican food at El Mariachi just down the road the second night (be warned, the "big margarita" is bigger than you expect! Super friendly staff and great food too). Winter in the area is definitely a best kept secret, we had the most magical snow-covered winter hike with the sun beaming down on us. Staying at this property was the icing on the cake! Quit searching and book it now!!

We stayed for ghe New Years weekend and absolutely loved the cottage. A fire and hot tub after a day of hiking was a great way to ring in the new year! I also appreciate the crockpot and airfryer in the kitchen!

Space to spread out
This property was very clean and had a lot of amenities for an older home. Really enjoyed the fireplace in the bedroom. Unfortunately, we stayed during a rainy, cold period so not much outdoor activities but was very comfortable and spacious, a good place to spread out especially if you have kids. The hosts were VERY supportive and answered every question thrown at them. We highly recommend this property and look forward to staying there again.

Great place to stay for a short trip. We were attending some events at OU. Its a little bit of a drive to campus but not bad. House is as it was listed. Not fancy but clean and simple. I would stay again if traveling there.

My first impression was positive. The property was very clean & the kitchen was well stocked. We had to change a couple of light bulbs & appreciated that they were available. One minor issue is that the toilet seat needs to be tightened as it is loose.

We didn't stay at the property. When we arrived there, around 5pm, the code that was provide by email didn't work. We tried for many times to open the front the door, also tried to reach out to the owners, but no answers. Ww contacted VRBO and they sent us to a local hotel only for a one night even thought we have bought our stay at the cottage for 2 nights. Until now the owners hadn't contact us at least for an apologies. The whole situation was a real scam and now we are waiting for our refund.

We only had a one night stay after dropping kiddo off at OU. The cottage was much more spacious than we expected and the property was more private than expected. We were greeted by three bunnies-which was very sweet. One night isn’t enough to appreciate all this place has to offer!

Great Little Cottage
We were down for a girls' weekend and the house was perfect. When we arrived it was very clean and well stocked (my first rental that had an abundance of TP). Our group of 5 fit very comfortably and everything was working well. No Central AC, but the place stayed pleasant and cool thanks to the window AC units. The backyard was nice to spend time in, as well as the large front porch. Only 10 minutes away from town where you could get anything you may need. It is a short 20 minute drive to Cedar Falls, Old Man's Cave, Ash Cave, The Rock House, etc. and only 10 minutes to go on River adventures. Great location and house. If you are over 6', you may have some issues with the low ceilings, but I found it charming. The hot tub head rests were broken off previous to our arrival but it didn't decrease our enjoyment of the property. I recommend this home for your Hocking Hills stay.
