Girls Weekend
We had four women staying at Carpenter’s Cabin for the weekend. The Cabin was beautiful and was decorated for the holidays in the most gorgeous way. It was super easy to communicate with the host and they were very helpful in working with us and providing information about the property and the surrounding area.

Wonderful house!
This property has everything your extended family needs for adventure and relaxation. Three separate floors and three bathrooms, so everyone has some privacy. Wonderful outdoor spaces. Close to all of Hocking Hills attractions. Very attentive hosts who fulfilled our request in 30 minutes. Highly recommend!!

A beautiful, relaxing retreat
We celebrated my twin sisters’ 40th birthday with 6 adults, three children and a toddler. The house had plenty of space for us to spread out and we spent lots of time on the front porch watching the kids play outside. We hiked a few trails at Hocking Hills which is less than 20 minutes from the house and visited the petting zoo for a fall festival. The house is beautiful and you can tell they thought of all the details both in the design of the house and in making it a comfortable space for guests. FYI, if you are traveling with a toddler, bring some sort of gate; the steps downstairs are right in the kitchen; we made a makeshift gate using a luggage rack and a suitcase. So glad we found this gem, I’d love to get back!

Cute cozy place!
Our stay was so lovely! The place is so quaint and clean and we didn’t want to leave the property much! The modern decor and furniture made the place feel sophisticated and had a homey feel. There was an issue with water pressure but the property manager was quick to respond and resolve the issue. There was also a manure / egg smell outside that would come and go but overall the place was perfect!

What a great place to get away with family and friends! The large island in the kitchen helped many hands cook at the same time and the conversation pit was cozy and intimate. We enjoyed hiking the trail on the property and gazing at the stars from the hot tub. The whole place was beautiful, clean, and comfortable.

Kitchen cooking pans need updated. The current ones have nonstick coating peeling off. Microwave is not secured and is concerning. Wine glasses should be in every rental property. We loved the ambiance outside with the lights. Overall we enjoyed our stay and the beds were super comfy. We would definitely stay again.
