Walk to State Park trails! Nature bathing + hot tub under the stars + firepit

Relax, Explore, and Unwind at the Sugarloaf Hillside Cabin!

Nestled on a forested hillside near Sugarloaf Mountain, this charming tiny-house cabin blends modern comfort with natural beauty. Recently built in an industrial farmhouse style, Sugarloaf Hillside offers a private hot tub on an expansive deck, where you can soak up views of the woods and night sky. A short stroll leads you to Great Seal State Park, where hiking and biking trails feature stunning ridge-top views on either side of the cabin.

Nearby Attractions:
- Tecumseh! Outdoor Drama: Just an 8-minute drive to this popular reenactment.
- Chillicothe: 12-15 minutes to enjoy restaurants, bowling, and more.
- Hopewell Culture National Historical Park: A UNESCO World Heritage Site, just 15-20 minutes away.
- Ross Lake: Only 10 minutes away, ideal for kayaking and fishing.
- Other State Parks: Hocking Hills, Tar Hollow, and Pike Lake are all within 40 minutes.

In winter, you can explore indoor spots like the Mighty Children’s Museum, Shawnee Lanes Bowling, and Nazdravie Winery in Chillicothe—all within 15 minutes.

Cabin Layout & Amenities
Sugarloaf Hillside’s open floor plan brings together the kitchen, dining, and lounge areas, creating a warm and inviting space. Down the hall, a separate bedroom and bathroom offer privacy, while two cozy sleeping lofts with plush queen beds are accessible by ladder, adding a touch of adventure perfect for kids. Sunlight fills the cabin through 17 windows, framing serene forest views on all sides.

The cabin is fully stocked with everything you need, including:
- Essentials: Toiletries, bedding, towels, coffee, and kitchen essentials.
- Entertainment: WiFi, a smart TV with Prime, Hulu, and Disney+, board games, and an Echo Dot with Alexa.
- Charging Station: Equipped with multiple cord types for your devices.

Outdoor Perks
Enjoy a peaceful evening by the fire pit, complete with circular seating, or fire up the grill for an outdoor feast. Lounge on two comfortable chaise chairs by the hot tub, and relax on the deck furniture with your morning coffee while spotting local wildlife like deer and turkeys.

For some friendly competition, try the giant Connect 4 or cornhole sets! A disc golf set is also available in the cabin for use at the Great Seal State Park course.

Cool spot!

Modern furnished cabin in a unique spot on the back of a huge ridge. In Ohio! Pictures are accurate. It's a beautiful cabin. Three queen beds. Lofts are best for kids. There's a couch and an individual chair, so four people watching TV is tough. But you didn't come to southern Ohio to watch TV. Get out and see some things. There's tons to do nearby. Chillicothe downtown is so cool. Thriving, almost. The road the cabin is on has been improved and has a decent amount of traffic. The backyard is huge, steep,.and mostly wooded. Cool fire pit area. For our family of 4, this worked great, and I would definitely consider booking it again.

The perfect getaway!

Our family had a fantastic time at the tiny cabin. We were impressed with how clean it was and how wonderful it was to sit on the deck with a cup of coffee and chat. Our host was great, very responsive. She gave us lots of ideas on what to do in Chillicothe. We enjoyed our time and would love to come back and stay at the tiny cabin again someday!

Amazing getaway

My friends and I decided that we needed a get away, it was the best time spending time away from our jobs and enjoying nature. We saw all kind of wildlife and the store were amazing. The hot tub was fantastic as well. We enjoyed s’mores on the fireplace but the mornings were the best hearing all the wildlife around you. Will be back!

Joy

If I had known the location I probably wouldn’t have booked the reservation, however part of the issue was the road closure. The cabin was more than excellent, confusing internet, so we could not call out. I was very concerned, my wife has been very I’ll, but we decided to try it rather then cancel, but I was worried if she got sicker and I need help, I could figure out how to call for help. Well she got along fine, but still concerned. Other than that we enjoyed our short stay, left early Wednesday night as it’s only an hour away so I could get an early start on some projects I am working on.

Private and quiet but close proximity to local restaurants

My husband, daughter and I had a wonderful stay here. It was our first VRBO experience. It was surrounded by beautiful trees and wildlife. We saw deer, cardinals and chipmunks. My daughter said she’s never had a better night’s sleep. My husband said it was one of the best vacation stays. The modern amenities made me feel right at home. Looking forward to going again!
