WELCOME TO THE LODGE: WHERE THE WILD MEETS ELEVATED STYLE
Escape to Rustic Ridge Lodge, a premier Hocking Hills destination designed for those who seek the perfect balance of rugged nature and elevates style. Situated on a sprawling 5 acre private sanctuary in Rockbridge, this isn't just a cabin—it’s a curated sanctuary for multi-generational families and those seeking an elevated wilderness retreat.
THE HIGHLIGHTS
The "Cedar & Steam" wellness experience
Elevate your stay with our signature on-site spa circuit. Begin your evening in the authentic Cedar Sauna, followed by a therapeutic soak in our 7-person luxury hot tub. Nestled under a canopy of hardwoods, our spa deck offers total seclusion and tranquil forest views, providing a true "JOMO" (Joy of Missing Out) experience.
The Ridge morning ritual
Mornings at Rustic Ridge are an event in themselves. We’ve designed a professional-grade station that caters to every ritual:
The espresso experience: For the true aficionado, we feature a manual espresso maker. We provide roasted whole beans and a precision grinder for a fresh, hot cup of coffee.
The classic pour: A high-quality drip coffee maker is ready for large-batch brewing.
Tea & infusions: A dedicated electric kettle and a curated selection of premium herbal and caffeinated teas.
The essentials: Fully stocked with fresh creamers, sugar, and sugar substitutes.
THE GREAT ROOM: THE HEART OF THE LODGE
The heart of Rustic Ridge is our breathtaking two-story Great Room. Designed to capture the vertical beauty of the surrounding forest, this space serves as the primary gathering point for connection and reflection.
The soaring river rock hearth: A soaring two-story fireplace serves as the room’s anchor. Outfitted with a wood-burning fireplace, it radiates warmth and classic lodge atmosphere throughout the entire main level.
The curated library: Beyond the digital world, we’ve provided a library of discovery. Our custom bookshelf is stocked with a diverse collection of board games and literature, perfect for a slow afternoon or a family game night by the fire.
Cinema among the trees: Perfectly positioned for cinematic viewing without detracting from the room's rustic elegance, a 58” 4K Smart TV offers seamless streaming for movie nights or the big game; complete with a DVD player and a curated DVD library.
Deep-seated comfort: The room is furnished with an abundance of plush, oversized seating, intentionally arranged to facilitate long conversations while offering every guest a front-row view of the hearth and the forest.
THE VINTAGE ARCADE & LOWER LEVEL LODGE
The walk-out lower level is a complete second living sanctuary designed for both high-energy play and cozy fireside retreats.
The retro arcade: Experience the golden age of gaming with our authentic cocktail-style arcade cabinet. The neon glow and classic sounds create a private "Social Club" atmosphere.
The lower hearth & lounge: Anchoring the room is our second breathtaking River Rock fireplace. Outfitted with a wood-burning fireplace, it provides a warm, ambient glow. Sink into the oversized sectional for movie nights on the 58” 4K Smart TV.
Competitive play: Engage in a pool tournament, go head to head at our old school arcade or challenge someone to air hockey. Walk out to the covered porch for a professional ping pong table, foosball, or relax at the pub table while watching the action.
