The Briar House-A modern retreat in Hocking Hills

Step into The Briar House and instantly unwind. This new build is a serene, design-forward cabin made for two—but can sleep up to four. A dramatic wall of windows blurs the line between indoors and out, flooding the space with natural light and woodland views.

Perfect for a romantic getaway, The Briar House features an expansive open-concept layout with luxurious finishes throughout. Enjoy a full kitchen with a large island, a cozy yet refined living area, and a king-sized primary suite with an ensuite bathroom.

Outdoors, your private oasis includes a screened-in porch, a spacious deck, a hot tub under the stars, a firepit for slow evenings, and peaceful woodland trails right outside your door.

Thoughtfully designed for two, the cabin can comfortably accommodate up to four guests with a pull-out sofa bed. Whether you're celebrating something special or simply seeking stillness, The Briar House offers a stay that’s anything but ordinary.

More photos coming soon – but trust us, it's even better in person.

This 38 acre property is host to 3 cabins. You have access to trails that other guests can also use. The Briar House does share a driveway with The Hollow House but has its own parking and seclusion.

This 38 acre property is host to 3 cabins. You have access to trails that other guests can also use. The Briar House does share a driveway with The Hollow House but has its own parking and seclusion. The driveway requires 4WD/AWD to navigate in inclement weather and we recommend 4WD/AWD in winter months regardless as the roads around Hocking Hills are all curvy and hilly.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 1.5 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. The bathroom offers a jetted tub and hair dryers. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Great time visiting the Hocking Hills area. Laura (host) was prompt with information whenever we needed it and the house had a few surprises (record player with a diverse selection of records) to help cap off the stay. Would definitely consider again when returning to the area.

Lovely, welcoming getaway with a gorgeous view of the woods

Homey, hospitable, quiet, with a beautiful view. I appreciated the Bluetooth record player, the games, and the hot tub, but most of all the woods and hiking through them on a quiet trail.

Cabin was beautiful, clean, and in a great location for Hocking Hills activities. While there was another cabin on the property, it remained secluded. Check-in and check-out was simple.

Incredible!

The woods and birds are so amazing, and this is one of the most spacious 1 bedroom rentals we've stayed in, especially with the screened-in porch! Also the proximity to the winery/vineyards was such a great feature. We will definitely be back!

Every corner was spotless — you could practically eat off the floors! Everything worked exactly as it should — from the smooth check-in to the well-equipped kitchen. A true 10/10 experience. We’ll be back without hesitation!

This property did not disappoint — not one detail was overlooked. From the moment we stepped inside, it was clear that quality, thought, and care went into every inch of this home. Nothing was cut short, forgotten, or half-done. The décor was stunning yet comfortable, blending style and warmth perfectly. Every corner was spotless — you could practically eat off the floors!Functionality? Spot-on. Everything worked exactly as it should — from the smooth check-in to the well-equipped kitchen. It’s obvious the owners take pride in making sure guests have a seamless, elevated experience.And the location? Unbeatable. If you’re looking for a place that delivers everything — beauty, comfort, cleanliness, and convenience — this is it. A true 10/10 experience. We’ll be back without hesitation!
