Great property

Nice cabin. Next to a natural spring that people pulled up to in loud deisel trucks constantly, however. The property itself was quiet, clean, and comfortable.

The cabin looks like it is pictured. The main living space was very roomy and comfortable and the air conditioner kept the cabin comfortably cool. It was nice to be able to cook in the well appointed kitchen. The fridge/freezer was roomy and worked well. Each bedroom had its own TV, night stands, and a queen sized bed with adequate room to walk around the beds. The full size bathroom was nice too. The only drawbacks to our stay were that the toilet is very close to the wall, there was no closet or dresser space for clothes and the DVD player and the hot tub weren't working. A slight cleaning issue was handle by the staff and we were compensated with a free pizza dinner for the inconvenience of the other problems as well. All in all, this was a very nice, relaxing place to stay and be able to see the Hocking Hills area and the parks with all the things to see and was to experience nature.

Cabin was exceptionally clean and nice inside and on the limited surrounding property. The location is in a less-than-desirable neighborhood and also immediately next to a public spring water filling station that stays quite busy. A great place to stay if you want to spend most of your time indoors or just need a place to spend the night near local attractions.

Awesome outside of not having propane for the fire pit table,and the cleaning seemed rushed.
