PET: We charge one time $150 pet fee. Please let us know if you are bringing a pet, max 2; Please add the pet fee under the option on the booking site (under the traveler to choose" I am traveling with pets"). If you did not pay upon booking, we can send you an invoice or charge you before you check in. Pets MUST be crated if you plan to leave them unattended. You will be charged $300 if we notice an unclaimed pet or uncrated unattended dog in the cabin. Guests will be responsible for paying for any damage caused by the pets.
Hot tub is always on (we don't turn it off). Please be aware that given the hot tub water could be changed as needed, the mountain water is extremely cold and it will take 10-12 hours to heat up and longer in winter time. In that case, it maybe not hot enough when you check in in the afternoon and you may not enjoy the hot tub on the 1st night (if we drain the water that day). No need to change the hot tube temperature settings.
The shower handle can be a bit tricky—turning it to the maximum actually makes the water colder.
While we don't supply firewood for the fire pit, there are numerous places to buy it on the side of the road on the honor system (bring cash) or at local gas stations/carry-outs.
Please prepare for mosquitos in summer time.
Environment Notice: Our home is nestled in nature, and occasionally, 'nature' finds its way inside. We make efforts to control pests with professional services, however, we cannot totally exterminate the bugs/rodents. We try our best to get rid of them and appreciate guests’ understanding. As we coexist with the environment, we kindly request keeping doors closed to minimize encounters.
Our drive way is flat and short. We provide snow removal for snowfall over 3 inches. The county crew plow the paved road well in snow days.
Our cabin uses well water, typical for the Hocking Hills area. It may have a natural odor since it's not treated with chlorine like city water. Bottled water can be purchased at a gas station or grocery, and we provide a filtered pitcher for your convenience.
Since our cabin is nestled beside a scenic creek and Hocking Hills weather can be unpredictable, occasional flooding may occur following heavy rain or severe weather. The water usually recedes within a few hours, allowing things to return to normal quickly. If an event such as a major flood makes the cabin inaccessible, we’re happy to work with you to reschedule your stay.

We had a very relaxing stay! Carol's home had everything we needed and more! The hot tub was exactly what we needed after a busy day hiking nearby Hocking Hills State Park. We will definitely stay there again!
The cabin was so cozy, hot tub was relaxing, host was quick with responses and home had everything we needed! The creek in backyard was beautiful especially with the fallen snow and the horses across the street were absolutely stunning and made for great pictures!!
Could not have picked a better place to stay during our Hocking Hills visit. The unit was clean, well stocked, and absolutely adorable. Will stay here next time we visit the area!
Cabin was clean and cozy, felt like a new place. I enjoyed that there were tons of towels and the beds and bedding were very comfortable. They had all of the kitchen utensils we could ever need and enjoyed that things were well kept.
Very nice and well laid out cabin. Very peaceful and quiet. The TV setup in the master is nice, and the WiFi worked well the entire time. Would definitely book again.
Everything was perfect! The home was was very comfortable and decorated so nicely. Carol was very attentive with our reservation and all the details that we needed, we would definitely stay here again.
Host was great with communication. No problems at all. Very clean and organized. Great mini vacation stay for my husband and I. We do have kids so next time we will bring them.
The cabin was very neat and exactly as described in the listing. The sleeping arrangements and amenities were very comfortable for 4 adults. It was relatively close to all of our planned activities/hikes. We had a great time watching the neighbor's horses as well!
The cabin was lovely and we appreciated all the amenities! The only “cleanliness” issue we had was with the hot tub… but after a few drinks we decided to use it anyways. Great location, nice beds and furniture and decor. Overall we were very happy with it! Would def stay here again
We rented the cabin because we wanted to experience hiking in Hocking Hills. Loved the cabin! My kids were so excited to stay in the loft and our bedroom was wonderful-the forest mural on the wall is great.Kitchen had everything we needed and the bathroom was well stocked with towels! The hot tub was of course a family favorite.
This is the 2nd time we booked this cabin, the other time was 2 years ago. Great cabin with wonderful amenities, great location to the Hocking Hills parks and Conkle's Hollow. The grill worked great and the hot tub is great after a long day of hiking to recharge and recover for the following days. The beds are very comfortable as well and the air helps for those hot days. Would for sure book it again!
