Kick Back Cabin - The Original - Hot Tub and Walking Trails

Tucked back in the woods, at the edge of 23 acres of a roughly 150 yr. old farm, this spacious, Amish built cabin built in 2006, is the ideal place to kick back and relax with friends or just your better half. Kick Back Cabin was originally the previous owner's art studio. With walking trails on the property that lead to a small creek and a seasonal pond, the scenery is sure to inspire.

This cabin is also at the epicenter of the Hocking Hills region and all that it has to offer!

Have a passion for boating, fishing, or swimming? 7 miles to Lake Hope State Park and Murray's Landing Canoe Livery

Adventure seeker? 17 miles to R Adventure Park / 20 miles to Hocking Hills Canopy Tours

History lover? 6.5 miles to historic Nelsonville, OH (Home of Hocking Valley Scenic Railway and Rocky Boot)

Winter weekend away

This was the perfect place for a weekend away in March! Close enough to drive to the trails and hike and then unwind at the cabin. It was so cozy and we especially loved the hot tub at the end of the day- thanks for a wonderful weekend away!

Great Location to major trails

Great location. Very Dog friendly. My dog loved being able to go in and out of the doggy doors into a fenced in space. It’s way off the main road so very private. Hot tub was a nice highlight. WiFi was pretty good for being that far out.

Perfect place to relax with pets

We enjoyed our stay and were able to relax with our two dogs. The fenced in area and enclosed upper deck were such a bonus. The walking trails were really nice and the hot tub gave us a perfect view of the night sky. It was a perfect place for our short get away. We would definitely recommend and stay there again!

great property

Great location...convenient to Athens and Hocking Hills destinations but out-of-the-way enough for relative quiet. Well-maintained and interesting trails on-property, and a nicely appointed, spacious cabin. Highly recommend, esp if you're bringing doggie friends, who will love their own fenced-in run.

Comfortable & Peaceful

The cabin is tucked away at the back of the property and is quiet/secluded. The scenery was beautiful and we were easily able to get to many of the local hiking spots and state parks. If you are bringing a dog, the side yard is a great amenity.

Secluded Getaway

Kick Back cabin was an amazing secluded winter getaway for our Anniversary. The private secluded cabin was cute & cozy and just what we needed to watch the snow fall close in around us. We will definitely return! We would like to stay on the property again in the Spring.

10 year Anniversary Getaway

It was a nice cabin nearby a quaint little town! Me and my partner loved the fireplace and really enjoyed the open floor concept. Unfortunately, a mouse got caught in a trap under the kitchen sink, but Nick and Shannon took care of it as soon as they could, so we really appreciated that!

First time staying here! Love the quiet serenity of this location! Our senior pet loved the view out the windows. We are looking forward to returning to explore more of this location as it was too easy to stay in the cabin enjoying the snowfall and its beauty! Thank you, Shannon and Nick for a wonderful stay!

Relaxing holiday getaway

Wonderful quiet place to spend a few days in the woods during a very unseasonably warm winter period. Plenty of trails to explore on the property. Thoughtfully decorated. Love the size of the cabin. Perfect for 2 people and a dog. Would even be good for 4 people. Appreciate the extra touches like a fenced in portion for pups. Hot tub under the stars was a bonus. Thank you!

Overall I was very happy with our stay. The VRBO pictures need updated in my opinion. The cabin is clearly older than the pictures but we had a great time.
