Our walkout lower level is thoughtfully designed for entertainment and relaxation. It's not just an ordinary space — with a sprawling sectional sofa, this area invites families and friends to gather for movie nights and board games. The bunk room is a cozy alcove, featuring full-over-full beds, making it the perfect hideaway for both the young and young at heart. A full bath and direct access to the inviting hot tub and a (seasonal) hammock await, make it a suite of its own.

Our amply-stocked kitchen is the heart of the cabin, offering a suite of culinary tools including a mixer, blender, waffle maker, and both French press and standard coffee makers.

The Perfect Quiet Getaway!

The Carpenters cabin provided everything we needed, and more, to slow down and spend quality time as a family! Our 13 year old (m) loved spending time outdoors exploring, while our 8 year old (f) enjoyed the coziness of the book loft!! During our short stay I most enjoyed the hammock chairs in the screened in porch on the 3rd floor, where I spent hours reading!!Scott & Jami were communicative before and during our stay, making for a stressfree experience! My families visit here fostered memories we will truly cherish forever!!!

Hocking Hills Family Gettogether

Perfect and secluded to enjoy a nice relaxing weekend near Hocking Hills. The playhouse offered great entertainment for the little ones under 6. The fire pit and Jamison offered great places to mingle and enjoy s’mores around the fire pit. The cabin offered luxurious accommodations but useful gathering our kids and grandkids together. Loved the place and highly recommend staying at when visiting Hocking Hills State Park.

Property was great for privacy, owner was very responsive and easy to communicate with. The location was perfect for any hiking you'd want to do in hocking hills. The house was very clean, well stocked and just as described in the listing. Truly one of the best places we've stayed. We would definitely plan on coming back for another stay and would love to see in different seasons. Thanks for a great stay! We loved Hocking Hills!

Amazing place!

Any description about the place listed is spot on! We went for a couple days with friends and loved every second! Not far from the caves and this place was so secluded and quiet. The kids loved the room/fort at the very top of the stairs. Everything was so comfy and nice/clean. Wish we stayed a couple days longer. The responses from the property owners was very quick and welcoming! Thank you!

Spring Break

We had a group of 4 adults and 4 kids between 9-12 years old stay at the house. There was something for everyone to enjoy - every detail from the swings on the porch to the little nook with a bed upstairs was thoughtfully crafted and we used every little nook inside the house. Our girls had a blast in the bunk room in the basement with their own private living room. We enjoyed smores out at the fire pit with a dip in the hot tub afterwards. The house made for a fun and memorable spring break trip with friends! Hope to be back!

A beautiful, relaxing retreat

We celebrated my twin sisters’ 40th birthday with 6 adults, three children and a toddler. The house had plenty of space for us to spread out and we spent lots of time on the front porch watching the kids play outside. We hiked a few trails at Hocking Hills which is less than 20 minutes from the house and visited the petting zoo for a fall festival. The house is beautiful and you can tell they thought of all the details both in the design of the house and in making it a comfortable space for guests. FYI, if you are traveling with a toddler, bring some sort of gate; the steps downstairs are right in the kitchen; we made a makeshift gate using a luggage rack and a suitcase. So glad we found this gem, I’d love to get back!
