About this property

Large, Open Sunset Cabin in Star of Hocking Hills

The Sunset Cabin is a beautiful 4-Bedroom Cabin with 2 full bathrooms, luxury kitchen sits on 7 acres overlooking lush fields with beautiful Sunsets off large back porch. Only 5 miles from Nelsonville and short drive to Hocking Hills. Hot Tub and WIFI
Upon arrival guests will be welcomed to a charming front porch, where our guests can relax outside after a day of exploring the state parks. You will walk into the Sunset Cabin to a beautifully remodeled space with knotty pined walls, hickory kitchen cabinets, and two comfortable living spaces.

The entire cabin has been completely remodeled to make our guests feel like they are at a home away from home. There is a fully equipped kitchen and breakfast bar that gives you the ability to cook delicious, home-made meals throughout your stay. Just located off the living room is a beautiful master suite with a luxurious master bath with a large, romantic soaking tub and a double vanity sink. Take a relaxing bath after exploring state parks and partaking in outdoor activities.

There are four additional spacious bedrooms where our guests can enjoy maximum comfortability in the Queen-sized beds. The second living room offers a great space to cozy up next to the electric fireplace with your loved ones while watching a movie marathon. One of the best features of the cabin are the two back decks, excellent for outdoor entertainment. You and your guests can grill juicy hamburgers or steaks over the grill.

Sit back and relax in the hot tub to enjoy beautiful sunsets and get lost in the wide-open starry night sky. Spend time around the outdoor firepit sitting around a crackling warm fire sharing memories, laughing over drinks, and roasting marshmallows. Make sure you take advantage of the picturesque views of the sunsets over the rolling hills, the beautiful fall foliage, and the gorgeous starry skies because these are views that you don’t see every day.
Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a kitchen, and a washing machine.

Large cabin in good location

This cabin is well-situated for day trips to many locations in Hocking Hills and other parks. The many bedrooms, all with large beds, could sleep 10 people. The living and sitting areas are comfortable. The pool, hot tub and outdoor grill work well. The only negative was the too-worn condition of the upholstery and broken recliners.

DISAPPOINTING!

Clean, kids liked pool, but cabin had major septic failure. For 24 hrs, unable to flush toilets, use tubs/showers because sewage had backed up into them! We were expected to use toilets but not flush! Many went outside in the woods. Crew couldn't snake out line cuz there was no clean-out; had to open sewer line & install one. NO WAY that was code! (Danielle, Brad/crew were very nice!) We lost entire day of vacation! Should have been relocated to alt. facility or compensated for this deplorable situation. Prop. mgr. said all she would do was refund $245. Shameful & unacceptable! Other issues: Porch had many loose boards/felt dangerous. Door didn't close tightly. Several beds sloped uncomfortably to middle. Trundle broken. Not enough blankets; just sheets, spreads, throws. Fridge door missing all shelves but the 2. Due to neg. reviews re: hot tub, we contacted property beforehand. Were assured it worked great, but it didn't. Bad jets, sand on bottom, cloudy water & lukewarm, never @ standard temp/104 deg. probably due to dilapidated cover. NO WAY deck was built to code for supporting its weight. Structural carrier beams were severely sagging. Outdoor trashcans were small, flimsy, lids couldn't be secured, so dogs got into them; A Mess! Called re: huge in-ground bee nest by pool; major concern due to severe allergies. They came & treated it; smelled like gasoline. Firepit looked nice, but w/ septic issue, we did NOT go down there! Very disappointing experience! Fournier Family

Good Enough

This property was goof enough for our party of 10 but somethings could be improved. 1) The check-in process was a bit of a pain. You have to pick a single key up from a remote location that was about 15mins out of the way for us. And then also return the key. That equals an extra hour of time. Plus there is only 1 key for our group of 10 which makes splitting up on outings to Hocking Hills an issue. I would recommend a key pad entry like most rentals use. 2) the hot tub would not get hot. Its more like a luke warm tub. We specifically chose a house with a hot tub so this was a bit disappoint for our group. 3) the house just isn't set up well for bigger groups. The second bathroom can only be reached by going through one of the bedrooms. The toaster only holds two slices at a time. We had to buy our own additional toilet paper and paper towel because what was provided ran out. For 5 bedrooms I excpected it to be a little better stocked. Overall though it met our needs and we had a great weekend. But it was just good enough and nothing spectacular.

Relaxing weekend

Cute house with 5 bedrooms which was nice so we didn’t have to share. Open floor plan was also nice. Only issue is the hot tub didn’t work. Would not warm up and when we looked outside the wood underneath was bowing so glad we didn’t use it. Overall a great place to have a relaxing weekend.

Nelsonville Family cabin retreat

Nice location. Pool is wonderful. Good wi-fi/cable. Hot tub and deck with grill and nice seating. Good kitchen set up and 2 living areas to hang in. 2 bathrooms good for 4 people - may be a challenge for more than 8 people since 1 bathroom is only accessible going throught the master bedroom. Nice firepit area but we did not use during our stay.

Plenty of room

We enjoyed our stay. There was enough beds for everyone, the pool was great. We didn’t use the hot tub. The only negative thing to say is that with this house sleeping 12 there is only 2 bathrooms and 1 of which you only had access to by walking completely through the master bedroom. If there was a 3rd bathroom or even just a half bath would be a great improvement!

Summer Vacation

We had a great time when we stayed at this cabin. The pool was great to cool off in and the hot tub was perfect to help sore muscles from hiking. The kitchen was equipped well to cook our meals. The only issue we had was the trash can outside did not have a lid and animals got into it on our second night. We messaged the owners and they picked up the garbage the next day, but did not leave a can with a lid. We had to bring the garbage in at night the rest of our stay to prevent animals from getting into it as it was not picked up again. All in all a good place to stay.

Sunset Cabin in Nelsonville

Great place to stay visiting Ohio University student. About 25 minutes to drive from OU. Close to Nelsonville. On main road so you can avoid back dirt roads if your car is not up to it. Lots of room for family to spread out with decent wifi and smart tvs. Comfortable beds. Kitchen is well equipped.. Ice maker in fridge is good. Negatives - only one bedroom has a closet for hanging clothes - but it is there; key needs to be picked up in short window from office - no keyless entry - we scrambled to drive from long distance to rental office in time for pick up before rental office closed; Chicken coop near home gave a bit of an oder to outside, but did not effect inside house, which was clean and smelled good; Overall - highly recommend.
