Thanksgiving getaway
My husband, our 9yr old, a few of my siblings, and my parents stayed here over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. It has been a bucket list that our mom has always wanted to do as a family, a Hocking HillsThanksgiving. It was absolutely beautiful. The house had everything we needed for a delicious dinner together, plenty of room to spread about, and the feel of home away from home. We had so much fun laughing together and making memories to last a lifetime. Definitely would recommend staying here!!

Perfect location to unplug and unwind! House was bigger than you'd think from the pictures, and perfect for a group getaway with lots of space for both gathering and hiding away!

Beautiful property, quiet location
The home had adequate space to accommodate our large family. The quick access to a walking trail and the lake was awesome. It was nice to be able to relax and enjoy nature with the comfort of a home. The well stocked kitchen was suitable for any meal prep. Also, the owner was very responsive in the lead up to checkin and during the check out process.

A wonderful vacation
The place was very nice. It was dated but still very nice. There were only two things I was disappointed in. The outlets, there were very few three prong outlets. And trash; for a house that size they really needed more, larger and more secured trash cans outside of the house. We had to pick up trash around the trash cans several times because of the raccoons. Overall, it was a wonderful stay. I would definitely stay again. The house felt relaxing and felt very welcoming.

Relaxing
Our week spent in Glouster was very relaxing! Even though it rained several days of our stay we were able to visit Hocking Hills, the local golf course, hike the trail through the woods play many games of cornhole and kayak on Burr Oak Lake. The house was very, very spacious - the bedrooms large, well stocked kitchen, and huge living and family rooms with plenty of seating! One group could be playing cards at the large dining room table, others watching a movie and still others reading or putting a puzzle together in the quiet of the family room! The deck along the whole side of the house was awesome and a favorite place to hang out with so many options of chairs and tables. The swing in the screened in porch was perfect, as well as the swing out near the woods. The only thing we wished was different would be latches/locks that worked on the bathroom doors. The toddler in our group thought it was great fun to open the doors when someone was in the bathroom. Overall we had a great stay and would recommend this house if you're looking for a place to relax and recharge!

Great time with great friends!
My friends and I go on a “Mancation” every year in June. This was amongst the best! The house was beautiful inside but we spend 90% of the time outside! Nice property with a fire ring. When it rained for a couple of hours we sat inside the screened in porch. Slept very comfortably in the A/C. Very quiet inside the house. It was a great experience.

Annual guys' trip
Very nice place overlooking the lake, with a nice private backyard. The property is ideal for large group of people or family gatherings. The checking in and out process was very easy, and the house had all the needed amenities. I would definitely recommend this property.

Girls' Weekend
It was a great house for our group of friends to stay for the weekend. Unfortunately it was chilly and raining off and on each day so we had limited ability to enjoy the back deck or screening in porch. Comfortable bedrooms, good areas for card games and conversation. Kitchen met our needs well. One of the pocket bathroom doors stuck open, but otherwise the property is in excellent condition. We would stay there again if we come back to the area for a future weekend. Be aware that the driveway is extremely steep and has limited parking unless you are really good at backing up a steep hill. There is additional level parking higher up, but you will need to navigate that driveway on foot. Keep in mind when unloading and loading.

A lovely home base for an Ohio University milestone event
Beautifully maintained, well organized and well stocked mid-century home. Many places to gather as a group or step away for some solitude. All of us were sad to leave as the weekend closed. My 80 year old mother in law joked that when she marries her 4th husband she wants to do it here. (At least I hope it was a joke for current husband's sake)

Wow! From the beautiful view to the spacious seating spaces, this is a perfect place to relax. With three baths and 5 bedrooms, there is plenty of room. The screened-in porch and two deck areas are extra joys. The host gives lots of supplies in the bath rooms and kitchen. We will be back!

Lost Weekend Review
Overall experience was very positive. Pictures were very representative of the property, and in fact, probably do not do justice to how sprawling the house is. Two wonderful great rooms allow for separate congregation areas. Multi level deck area was great for group and individual conversations. Spent most nights at the firepit to enjoy a couple unseasonably comfortable evenings. Only a couple negatives. Internet did not work while we were there. Called Jeff and he was responsive, but was never able to get the issue resolved. Not a big deal for our group but could obviously be an issue if you were planning on getting some work done. The drive is a challenge, although I anticipated this and we were able to work around it. It was a little confusing finding the drive as well. Positives far out-weigh the minor negatives. Kitchen was very well appointed and the beds were awesome. Having 3 bathrooms is a real bonus! This is a really great property that is well maintained and very clean. Know going in that it is on a hillside and presents a few walking challenges outside. Kudos to Jeff and Suzanne for a fine renting experience.

Verynuce place we had alotnif fun.
It was a bit hard to find the actual house being that it was down such an incline. Pictures show the view or the lake as being better than it was when we got there. Over all we love the place and had a great Girls weekend.
