Inside home was very nice
Inside the home was well cared for. Cedar smell walking in took me back. It was very nice and well stocked if you forgot anything. The outside was to be desired. Only complaint about inside was upstairs shower hot water knob broken and was hard to turn on and off. Hot tub was dirty. The walk way was dirty and all porches were dirty. Needed swept and back table needed cleaned. Doesn’t look like it got spring cleaned. The neighborhood was okay, but too close for me. It felt like everyone was on top of one another. I would recommend if you just want a nice place to go to get away and visit the lake. I would get it again.

Great hosts in a great location!
If I could rate Mark and Ellen higher than 5-stars, I would. There were some very, very minor mechanical issues that popped up just before our arrival, and Mark & Ellen were quick to communicate with me, and came through with all accommodations. The location was great for our short deer hunting excursion, and Mark was very knowledgeable about the terrain. Thank you for a memorable stay. Looking forward to future visits.

No good
The place was not very clean, advertising wasn’t accurate. It was not handicapped. I told them I was taking my 85 year old mother and never once did they tell me it wasn’t handicapped. The hot tub didn’t work, the toilet over flowed while we was there, the downstairs smelled of mold, couldn’t even sleep down there, was very disappointed. I rent cabins twice a year and never had a place this bad. If they are going to rent a place at least clean around the house. And the grill was a joke, it was propped up with rocks, tried cooking on it and almost lost our dinner because it fell off the rocks that held it up. And it says it has a path to the lake, no path and u couldn’t see the lake at all. I’m not happy about this place and. Our vacation. I’m sorry but I won’t be back to this place.

Cabin as described. Great time with family!
Loved the place. Owners are wonderful! 4 adults, 3 kids, 2 dogs on our trip. Very spacious, great appliances, kitchen very well stocked. If you're from the city and not used to well water, bring your own. We were good with it. Trails behind the house were great to the boat dock. (At 60 years old, coming back up was rough.) Pontoon rental was great, easy to get to. Spent the day on the lake fishing and swimming. Everyone very friendly. Beautiful sunsets from the boat dock. Back deck was super nice to cook out and enjoy wildlife. Again, very spacious. Kroger and convenience stores close by (10 minute drive.) It's a real house with large closets in bedrooms, dresser drawers, night stands, nice beds, large back yard. Would definitely choose this place again.

New Years Family get-together
Everything about the house was very clean and the property manager was great to work with. There were a couple of small problems that were not his fault and he took care of them quickly, even coming to the house on New Years Eve. Everything in the listing was there, so it was accurate in that respect. I have to say we were disappointed in the house. Everything was just a little shabby. Poor quality microfiber sheets. Furniture old and stained. A dining room chair fell apart when sat on. The television was very small and only had basic cable with no internet (to be fair the no internet and basic cable were in the listing). The surrounding houses were a little trashy looking and very close to the house. The hot tub was on the front porch, very close to the neighboring back yard which was unattractive. The fire pit was on a sloping hill in back with old dirty broken looking plastic chairs. The house smelled very musty, but improved after the heat was on for a day or so. The road to get to the house was difficult to navigate with tight on-street parking. The front steps were a little steep. This was not what we were expecting. I do want to say again that everything was very clean.

The perfect getaway!
Breathtaking views of the sun rising over the autumn leaves from the deck of the spacious, clean, comfortable, well stocked cabin. We loved the quaint feel which was conducive to cozy, comfortable conversation and lots and lots of laughter! The hot tub was the perfect way to start and end the beautiful days. Emma and her family are readily available and very friendly but not intrusive at all. We had a perfect weekend - thank you Emma!!!

We are the Millers review
Very well stocked kitchen. Extra towels for hot tub. Despite the oven issues (we lost some $$ on ingredients) the place was great. Learn from our mistakes…… the switch for the hot tub is inside of house. It was an hour from Hocking Hills, Search for tv remote, and be careful with windows, they may slip off the track. We took advantage of fire pit, hot tub and grill! Had a fabulous time Extremely clean and would absolutely recommend this property!

Peaceful Location
The location was very peaceful and good for our purposes (ministerial retreat), however, I felt the house does could use some maintenance given the price point. We only used the upstairs bedrooms, the bedrooms were clean and the beds very comfortable! The basement smelled a little of mildew, but other than the bathroom, we did not use any of the bedrooms on the lower level. A good place if you simply want to get away to the country. The property manager was very responsive to questions and concerns! Note that the lake access is a short drive and the lake is not visible from the property.

Excellent Stay
Property was exactly as described with a short hike or drive to Burr Oak Lake. The cabin was well stocked with essentials and very clean. My partner and I spent a wonderful long weekend hiking, kayaking, and just relaxing by the fire and in the hot tub. Our senior great dane was safe to explore inside and out as a baby gate was available to keep him from attempting the spiral stairs to the lower level and the cabin was not close to the main road in. We didn't feel like cooking one night and got an excellent pizza from Little Italy in nearby Glouster. Make sure to visit the Float Shack on your way to/from the lake!

Great hosts!!
While it’s off the beaten path, the house is full of nostalgia. The hosts are awesome to say the least. While we had a couple minor issues, Emma and Mark are kind, compassionate and prompt when replying to messages. We thank them for their hospitality. One more note; I don’t give 5 stars because nothing is perfect, so my 4 stars is as close to perfect in my opinion.
