Two GRILLS are available for you whether you like charcoal or gas, you have your pick!

The cabin is also equipped with a flat screen TV that has local cable, along with a blue-ray player. Or bring your own streaming device and plug it right in. WIRELESS HIGH SPEED INTERNET is available at no cost !!! And cell service is pretty good too!

We were very pleased with the property. There are a few maintenance issues that should be addressed, but nothing that affected the enjoy of our stay. The cabin was very clean and cutely decorated. Some of the wall decor were actually functional games. We really enjoyed the wood burning stove, hot tub and grilled out (yes, in the winter). Our host placed Valentine surprises in different areas. We would definitely stay here again!

As someone who has stayed at many short term rentals all over the world, and many cabins in the Hocking area, the Red Hickory cabin stands out. Everthing you could ever need is provided. The little things like labels on lights, abundant blankets, and hooks everywhere are so appreciated as a guest. Add to this the perfectly cozy and well laid out cabin and you have a 10/10. As a bonus, wall decor that doubles as playable board games was so fun!

This cabin was perfect for a weekend away. The grounds were well prepared for our stay, everything inside was clean and organized and the driveway and areas around the house were cleared off from fall leaves. We loved using the fireplace and the kitchen was well equipped for our needs.

Great place, even better than the pictures. This place has the best kitchen I’ve ever had at a vacation rental. It is clean and well thought out. I was afraid the loft bedroom would be hit but it wasn’t at all. The driveway is steep but also kind of fun and exciting to get to the charming secluded cabin in the woods that is out of a story book. 30 minutes away from hocking hills state park.

Extremely Peaceful

An amazing secluded property. It was very hot when we stayed but the cabin was shaded by all the mature trees. We were able to sit on the deck and enjoy nature. The cabin is beautiful and the owners thought of everything. The only issue we had was the internet kept rebooting one evening, but it wasn’t really a bother as we weren’t there for technology, it was more about being disconnected and relaxing. The owner is very responsive. Would highly recommend this to friends and family. We would definitely rent this cabin again.

The house was perfect! Great location, far enough but not too far. I love that it was tucked in the trees up a hill from the main road. We took our dog and 2 year old, so distance from traffic was ideal. I was worried about my son on the stairs, but found the owner had a baby gate in the storage room! I love they were prepared!The deck has been adjusted, it caught me off guard at first, but the huge flight of stairs was removed, it only has two steps with the hot tub right outside the door. I really liked that adjustment, again because we had our 2 years old who still hasn't mastered stairs. Ideally it's a couples cottage as listed, but we don't need much space, we liked the coziness for our little family. More than enough kitchen amenities, two types of grilling, large hot tub, towels and blankets were all provided. The sofa had a pull out sofa which was perfect for movie night in the living room. There's a trail behind the house, unfortunately we didn't get to venture out much due to the weather. Really loved this place, highly recommend!!! (Forgot to take more photos before we left) Other than the deck adjustment, exactly as photos show in listing!I had a few questions while there, and the owner was very quick to respond and very helpful!

Lovely, isolated cabin getaway, conveniently nestled between multiple state parks and recreation areas. Well stocked kitchen/laundry for easy functionality. Very clean and comfortable interior environment. Would return in a heartbeat if the following shortcomings were addressed: 1) safety concerns with lack of sufficient ballister spacing on staircase; 2) deficient, non-commercial grade gas grill difficult to light and in need of cleaning/repair/replacement; 3) poor and insufficient landscaping around the perimeter of the cabin made the immediate surroundings impassible, wet (almost drain swampy around hot tub decking), and messy (very limited access for pet potty breaks apart from gravel driveway). A small investment in professional landscaping would pay huge dividends in aesthetic appeal and functionality -- some better drainage, stone terracing, and some shrub/flower beds to create an inviting and functional 15' perimeter.
