Cozy Hocking Hills Chalet ~ Hot Tub ~ Sleeps 6 ~ Near Old Man's & Ash Caves
Welcome to The Madison — our 3-level Hocking Hills chalet, thoughtfully sized for groups of up to 6. Whether you're a small family, two couples, or a close-knit friend group, this is the place to slow down together.
★ THE SPACE ★
Two queen master suites anchor the cabin, each with its own full en suite bath. A full-size bed tucked into the loft adds a bit of treehouse charm — perfect for the kids, or a third couple. Sleeps 6 comfortably.
Downstairs, you'll find theater-style seating around a 60" smart TV — the perfect spot for a rainy-afternoon movie marathon or catching the game. We splurged on YouTube TV with NFL Sunday Ticket, plus Hulu and Disney+, and there's a Roku in each bedroom. Fast Starlink WiFi keeps things flowing even out here in the woods.
The kitchen is fully stocked for real cooking — stove, oven, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker, kettle, blender, wine glasses, and all the basics. The dining table seats 6 for slow family dinners.
★ THE OUTDOORS (where the magic lives) ★
Step outside to a 6-person covered hot tub, a 32-ft wraparound porch made for morning coffee, a fire pit waiting for s'mores, a BBQ grill, hammock, sun loungers, and 2.7 secluded acres of Hocking Hills woods to call your own. Inside, the cozy gas fireplace makes winter evenings feel like home.
★ THE LOCATION ★
The Madison sits on a quiet, secluded road in South Bloomingville, in the heart of Hocking Hills — Ohio's go-to for waterfalls, sandstone caves, and old-growth forest hikes.
You're 12-15 minutes from the iconic hikes:
- Old Man's Cave
- Ash Cave (Ohio's largest recess cave, stroller-friendly)
- Conkle's Hollow (towering cliff walls)
- Cedar Falls
- Hocking Hills State Park
Le Petit Chevalier Vineyard is a 7-minute drive — perfect for an afternoon glass on the patio. Logan, about 20 minutes out, has restaurants, breweries, and supplies. For more adventure, you've got zip-lining, horseback trail riding, rock climbing, and the Hocking Hills Canopy Tours all close by.
Columbus is about an hour drive; Athens and Ohio University around 45 minutes.
Every season has its moment — spring waterfalls, summer stargazing, legendary fall foliage (book early!), and frozen waterfalls in winter.
★ HOW WE HOST ★
We're here for you, but not on top of you — that's the balance we try to strike. You probably won't see us, but if you need anything (a hike rec, a question about the hot tub, an extra pillow), we're a message or text away and usually reply within minutes. We've also got trusted local helpers who can be on-site fast if anything needs hands-on attention.
Self check-in at 4 PM keeps arrival simple. Easy 11 AM checkout, no rush.
★ HONEST NOTES (so nothing's a surprise) ★
The trade-offs of country living: we're on well water (some guests bring bottled water for drinking), cell service can be hit-or-miss but our Starlink WiFi is fast and reliable for WiFi calling, and 4WD is a smart call in winter weather (we plow when accumulation tops 2"). The cabin has 3 levels with stairs between them.
★ HOUSE RULES ★
- No pets — we love animals, but the cabin is pet-free
- No smoking or vaping anywhere on property
- No parties or events
- Booking guest is responsible for the group and any damages
We're a Sustonica-certified sustainable property. Travel insurance is a smart call — please review our cancellation policy.
