Whether you're planning an extended family gathering, a hunting trip, a couples' retreat, or a corporate getaway, this home is perfect for you.

Indulge in the serenity of our secluded location, situated over a mile from the main road and a half mile from the nearest neighbor.

Privacy is paramount here, surrounded by 82 acres of partially wooded land, offering endless opportunities for hiking, fishing, hunting, and exploration. Immerse yourself in nature's wonders as you fish in our two stocked ponds, complete with a rowboat and two stand-up paddle boards!

Don't miss the awe-inspiring view of sunrise or sunset from the hill behind the house - an experience you won't forget! We recommend wearing long pants on the trails to navigate the tall grass.

While the property suffered tornado damage in May 2019, it’s a nature lover's paradise. Discover an extensive network of trails throughout the land, with the ridges boasting stunning panoramic vistas that stretch for miles. Birdwatchers will be in heaven as well!

Inside, you'll find a haven of comfort and luxury. The Place features a true chef's kitchen, complete with a spacious island, where culinary delights can come to life. Enjoy leisurely evenings playing billiards in the game room or unwind in the cozy loft area, equipped with a generous sofa.

Indulge in the seamless harmony of indoor and outdoor living as you relax in the great room or on the massive wraparound deck, furnished with comfortable seating and a gourmet gas grill.

Downstairs you’ll find the fully decked-out game room with a big-screen Roku TV with ample seating, a card table, games, and a full-size billiard table!

We take pride in providing some of the best-stocked cabins in Hocking Hills! No need to bring essentials like linens, towels, toilet paper, and paper towels (1 roll provided). We also do our best to stock basic kitchen staples like coffee, olive oil, salt, pepper, and other basic spices.

If you have any questions or need assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. Myself or my assistant, Marianne, will be delighted to help.

We can't wait to host you at our cabin and provide you with a memorable vacation experience. Book now and get ready for a peaceful retreat in the breathtaking Hocking Hills!

Fabulous Scenic Getaway
A few friends and I spent a long weekend at this Hocking Hills home and had a wonderful time! Greg (owner) and Marianne (guest coordinator) were very communicative and helpful with every detail regarding our stay. The property was very clean and had a beautiful pond and scenic view, especially with the fall colors! We appreciated the privacy and peaceful surroundings. We were also very close to HH state park. Highly recommend this home for any visit to Hocking Hills!

Family vacation
The house needed some improvements in my opinion. bathroom near the kitchen was dirty, and the toilet tissue was on the floor instead of on the roller. When I picked it up it had a brown substance smeared on it. The bed was very uncomfortable and the pillows were small; I went home with a stiff neck and back as a result. The jacuzzi was dirty with sand on the bottom. It couldn't be used. It was very expensive, I could've stayed at the Grand Floridian resort in Walt DIsney World or gone to Mackinac Island in Michigan and stayed at the Grand Hotel for the same price and been more comfortable. I was surprised that there were no TV's in the bedrooms, and if you had to go to the restroom at night if you put the light on, it disturbed the other folks in the other bedrooms. The TV in the loft was useable, but I discovered when I chose a movie, that is the movie I was stuck with for my whole stay; the remote control may need new batteries. My daughter (30 F) said that the decor was early American garage sale and that the house looked like a great spot for young folks to go and party. The equipment available to use if you swam in the lake was substandard and we wouldn't use it.

Great Family Stay!
We had a great time at this property with the entire family, from kids (7, 10), to grandparents, and even our dog! The property itself had plenty of fun for everyone, our kids especially enjoyed fishing off the deck then hop onto the pond on the paddle board. Greg checked in with us often, and the house had everything we need. It was also conveniently located to within 15 min drive of Hocking Hills park and a grocery store. Highly recommend for any families looking in the area!

Great remote family getaway!
Greg's property was absolutely perfect for our family getaway! Everyone enjoyed the outdoor deck overlooking the water. There were so many activities for all to enjoy - paddle boarding, fishing, cornhole, sitting by the firepit at night, and much more. We had an issue with the coffee maker not working and Greg kindly sent a new coffee maker via Amazon that was delivered the next day! Amazing memories were made here and we are very grateful.

Beautiful Property - Relaxing Stay
We just stayed at the property with 2 teenagers. The property was beautiful and very private. The house worked well for the 4 of us and the lakes were calm and beautiful. The boys enjoyed fishing the lake, building fires and hiking through the woods. It's close to Lake Logan where we rented a boat for one of the days. We never made it to the caves but will do that next trip. The whole experieince was very relaxing and enjoyable.

Great vacation stay
This is a very nice property with tons of room to spread out, inside and out. Very private with lots to do on the property & close to the state park and tourist places. Our teenage boys were in the pond everyday: swimming, boating and paddle boarding. The fishing was great! I wish more wildlife came around, but the bullfrogs were very fun every night! And there seems to be a blue heron that lives by the pond! There are a ton of trails on the property! We didn't use the hot tub because it was oppressively hot that week, but it looks nice and well kept. The only downside is the ticks, such is nature! In every place we've ever stayed in HH, we've had to deal with them. You just have to be vigilant! Really great vacation!

Great For All Families!
We stayed 4 days/3 nights. 4 adults, 3 toddlers, and an infant, could anything go wrong? Sure it could have BUT IT DID NOT! We could have also brought our 90 year old grandpa. There is stuff for all ages and no shortage of fun and privacy! Would absolutely consider doing this trip again when the kids are older. The owner Greg is awesome and responds quickly to needs and questions. Lots of life long memories were created!

What a place to relax
We had family of 6 with ages from 5-81 years and one very old weiner dog. Fishing was amazing.There are some really large bass in the pond but you have to give them what they want. Our lips are sealed so good luck! Spent most of the time on the deck as it is so peaceful. Heard my first deer snort and it isn't what you would expect. My hubby is a life long hunter so he knew. Otherwise, I would have been thinking Bigfoot lived on that property. LOL. Whippoorwills are also new to the fam. Birds at night that aren't owls? Yep. We had more than enough room and it feels welcoming from the get go. So many trails to hike and things to see it would take multiple trips to see it all. Don't get me started on the quaint little stores or the Sasquatch festival. Will probably head back this way in the fall.

Exceeded all expectations.
This is a remote piece of paradise that is all self contained for fun and entertaining. The cleanliness and quality cannot be overstated. Everything was perfect and the best stocked kitchen we have ever seen….. if you like to cook, this is the place to stay. This was our family’s mini reunion for my adult kids and everyone had something to do(walks, fishing, paddle boarding, hot tub (which was extremely clean), movie center, fire ring, cards, board games, billiards, and the list goes on. Beds were great and rooms were quiet. The bunkroom is nice if you have a bunch of people. Kitchen is the best and the outdoor deck is large and inviting as it looks over the pond in the woods. We stay at VRBO properties all the time, and this property was the best we have ever stayed at. Great value for your money. This property is a family’s 2nd generation private second home and it shows with the love and care they put into it. If you are looking for a very private getaway that has everything, yet close to hocking hills and old man’s cave, you definitely will not be disappointed. Communication with the owner and property manager was outstanding. Easy check-in. Thanks for sharing your home with our family. Hopefully I can get my kids back home from out of state and we can rent again. Thanks, Bill and Sue.
