Birthday Getaway

For being just a weekend getaway it was sure perfect. Beyond satisfied with the cabin it was such a rustic home feeling. To be in the woods with nothing but you it was perfect being able to star gaze and relax in the hot tub while it was raining it was the perfect oasis not just that being 20 mins from hocking state park

NYE stay

Our stay was nice and cozy. Fireplace was the perfect touch along with the hot tub. We did not receive check in information and had to contact VRBO customer service to get a number to call. Tried calling host again in the am for a hot water issue with no response. Otherwise great stay. Be aware that there is no local Stores/restaurants close so make sure you bring all your food in. Place did have a stovetop burner, toaster oven, microwave, and toaster. You can buy firewood on site. Lack of communication and instruction was frustrating but otherwise a nice getaway.

Great stay.. just a few issues

This is a great location and my partner and I had a good time. The only drawbacks were that there was no hot water in the shower.. and I was slightly worried we were going to have issues checking in, as I had to message and then call for the check in code. Other than that, was a good stay and we would return.

Review

It was a very nice stay. We were disheartened when the listing stated that a grill was provided and we brought all food to grill, and we arrived and did not have a grill… we had to cook on a tiny plug in burner that our food barely fit in the pans on… the power did go out completely one night but that is no fault to anyone it was just a bit of a hassle lol. It is a very nice cabin and we LOVED the hot tub and the swing inside the cabin.

Cute Cabin,

Overall, the stay was pretty good. The Cabin was nicely decorated, and hot tub was amazing! However, I would warn if you are coming during the fall, it sounds like you are getting attacked all night by the falling nuts on the metal roof. My husband and I did not get much sleep due to how loud they were. Also the listing states oven, however it's only a toaster oven that is situated on top of the fridge, which made it difficult to use. A few other things that I would change as well would be there was nowhere to put your clothes. There was a rod hung up when you came in the door but no hangers to hang up your clothes or no dresses to unpack as well. The only other suggestion I would have is that in the kitchen there is no window dressings so if you come out of the bathroom which is directly across from the window, or inside from the hot tub you also have to walk by it.

Lovely cabin!

Overall, a very nice stay. The cabin itself and the hot tub were pristine. The cooking burners were not clean and had some dried egg still on it but otherwise worked well. The fireplace was a nice addition. Some of the material in the binder (QR codes for info) was out of date or non-functional but the property manager was very responsive by text. Check in was easy though it would have been more helpful to have that emailed to us prior to our stay. Beautiful location and loved the hanging chair. Thank you!

Mostly Meh i would say

Check in was a bit confused, the place was okay mostly and the hot tub was okay. The kitchen had electric burners and a toaster oven. All that was fine. The bathroom had no soap, shampoo, nothing, the windows had no screens and the privacy shades on the back deck left a lot to be desired. I have stayed at a few cabins at hawking hills and i would say this was by far my least favorite.

Review

Host did not provide instructions for check in even after being contacted well in advance which resulted in a late check in by almost 2 hours, in addition there was no hot water in the shower. I also reached out to attempt to book a second day a week in advance and never received an answer.

Bed bugs and terrible communication

We never received any check in information. I had to reach out to VRBO customer service because the host was not responsive to messages. Once VRBO got in contact with the host we were able to get our check in information. We talked to our neighbor who arrived the same time we did and they never received any info either and could not get ahold of the host. Now the most disturbing part of our stay. The cabin was clean and looked very nice. We truly enjoyed our stay despite the check in issues. We traveled from our home, to the cabin and then back to our home. The cabin was the only place our luggage was besides our vehicle. When we returned home we found bed bugs in our luggage. We don’t have them in our home. We didn’t check the cabin for them while we were there. But sometime between when we left our home to us returning home, we picked up bed bugs in our luggage. I contacted the host immediately and surprisingly enough, they actually responded this time. The host claims they had an inspection done AFTER the current guests left, 2 days later. And the inspection determined there were no bed bugs. The inspection report also showed that the host was not charged for the inspection. Do with that info as you will. We were not offered any type of refund, compensation or even an apology.

The cabin was a steel framed one, not a log cabin. The greatest frustration was check in: I spent one hour trying to get past security codes and the like with the message for giving me the access code to the door lock on the cabin. I finally got the information by calling the property manager, whose name and telephone number ideally would have been sent in the email I received with the address. The electronic communication/IT did not work. I am not sure who was responsible for such poor communication regarding the access code to the door: the owner, the management company, or the manager---regardless, it was completely inappropriate. The inside was clean, had a microwave, toaster oven, two burner portable electric plate stored below the sink, fridge, small table with stools stored under the table. The back porch faced the woods. The hot tub worked well and was the appropriate temperature and clean. The covers to the tub had flaps which were torn. The furniture on the porch was metal with no cushions. There was a one person shower stall, again clean, with one plastic bottle of foam hand soap on the sink. The environment was remote even by Hocking Hills standards, and the cabin located on a gravel road. The beginning of the road saw a junk yard, which did not lead to great expectations on my part. Again, the most frustrating part was check in. There were occasional gunshots and firecrackers after dark, but this did not bother me. The cabin cost in the 300s per night.

Small Oasis but Be Ready to Wait in Car

Overall the cabin is nice/quaint. We enjoyed our time and reconnecting with one another. On the flip side— we never received check in or check out procedures, entrance code, etc. We sent messages and sat and waited. We eventually contacted VRBO customer service and within a minute of them sending an alert to the host, they text us. We still wasted too much time sitting in the car waiting. Random issues— no coffee cups with the coffee maker, fan blades covered in dust, we replaced lightbulb in side table because not working, twinkle lights in chair swing are broken/not working. When standing at the kitchen sink we could see into the next cabin and their hot tub area. Even with them bringing their outdoor blinds (not at kitchen) closed we could still see everything they were doing. Also, because of this, that means when you walk out of the shower, someone can watch you through the window. The shower is super cold, after ten minutes it eventually warmed up but did not last long. Shower is also VERY slick. Wish they had: small toiletries as we had to drive almost 15 minutes to get some

Very nice and cozy cabins. Did have issues getting in touch with property managers for check in instructions as well as additional info needed to prepare for the stay. The Cabin was a really nice cabin however, there was alot of dog hair everywhere left behind from last person.
