About this property

Welcome to Hidden Hollow Cabin!

** PLEASE NOTE - I no longer have access to a laundry service that is able to take care of providing clean towels and linens. Please understand that I would like to provide this service, but I am unable to. Thus, you’ll need to plan on bringing your own. I do apologize for this.

*** Please read this entire description before booking, and feel free to ask me any questions you might have! ***

I have had some recent complaints regarding a few items so please read the following info prior to booking. Your booking this cabin acknowledges that you have read and understand the information contained in this ad.

This RUSTIC cabin is located in a wooded and grassy area. There are bugs and there are spiders and there are other furry critters in the area. The cabin is typically cleaned on a Monday after folks check out. The cleaning service has an hour round trip travel time, so it is likely it won’t be “freshened up” immediately prior to your arrival if you come later in the week. Please expect there to be a sign of activity of these bugs and spiders and other pests in this natural wooded area.

The lawn service might not always be able to mow or trim weeds directly prior to your arrival. Many factors such as rain, wooded property access, and land topology play into this. This is not a metropolitan or town location. If you are expecting that, understand you might be disappointed and won’t receive a refund.

Sometimes, a window might fail to lock. However, all main entry doors are secure and have locks on them. We have never had a security incident since we began cabin rentals in 2012. I have had many, many very happy customers. Many folks come back to each of my locations each and every season. However, a few have not been happy due to the items listed above. Please be sure you understand the above information before choosing to stay here.

This simple cabin is located in a wooded area to allow hiking, campfires, grilling out, and just relaxing while overlooking the scenic wooded view. It is located near South Bloomingville, OH, just minutes from Old Man s Cave, Ash Cave, Conkle s Hollow, and many other local attractions.

Plates, bowls, pots, pans, utensils, coffee maker, toaster, and trash bags are included.

The cabin has air conditioning, an electric furnace heater, ceiling fans, leather recliner, leather reclining couch and loveseat, and a fire pit! It has beds and couches to sleep 6 (please see below for a description of the bedding arrangement), kitchen with stove, refrigerator, and microwave. Outside, there is a propane grill on the front porch. There is also ample space for a nice campfire to roast hot dogs and make S Mores!

Bedding arrangement: There are a total of 3 mattresses: 1 queen size bed in the bedroom (sleeps 2), 2 twin bunkbeds in one corner of the main room (sleeps 2), a couch (can sleep 1), and a loveseat that can sleep 1 small adult or child. {Entire cabin sleeps up to 6 - feel free to bring air mattresses to sleep more}.

PLEASE NOTE - The queen bed is made of natural wood logs and crowds one edge of the bedroom pretty well! You have JUST enough room to squeeze by to get to bed! I apologize in advance for the cramped path to bed.

Please also note: I have very good feedback at my cabins, and I pride myself in trying to make sure folks enjoy their time here. I will do my best to make sure your stay is a pleasant one. In order to achieve that, I want to make sure you are aware of a few items:

At times an item within the cabin might not be functional. Items such as these will be addressed ASAP by the property managers, and I will always do my best to make sure you are notified prior to booking.

The cabin packs MANY items into a small area.

Don t delay! Get out to the Hocking Hills!

This property is located in a rural setting with open grassy areas and woods nearby. We do our best to keep pesky rodents away but at times there could be a rodent that was just caught in a trap. We have tried poison, traps, and using nothing at all; we have landed on continuing to use mousetraps. Poison causes them to die in the most inopportune places and having no traps at all just leads to larger issues. If you happen to find a mouse in a trap we apologize - we truly are doing the best to can to make the pests disappear. Just please be prepared to place all food in sealable containers or in the refrigerator so you don’t attract them even more!

In addition to small furry pests, an occasional wood roach might be wandering around a cabin. I assure you these are NOT a cock roach. Please google “wood roach”. They feed on moist damp wood. They don’t really want to be inside but they might have been carried in on firewood or wandered in looking for a mate. They don’t eat human food and they don’t want to be inside. If you find one, please either dispose of it or simply throw it outside. Thanks for your patience as you venture in to the rural wooded areas of Hocking Hills!

Easy Peasy!

This was my first experience using a rental and the host was incredibly helpful and prepared. They know about the area and give good directions for when your GPS may lose signal. The cabin was exactly as pictured. Hot tub was clean and having wifi was great for winding down with a movie. Overall great experience!

A quick stay to hike hockinghills

Property could really use some updates. Absolutely no frills to this property. Hot tub did work but was so old and rickety! We had many bugs inside the cabin! Property manager was very nice and helped with all our needs and questions. This was our first time to area and we will be back but probably not to these cabins

Anniversary wknd

This was our 10th wedding anniversary and it couldn't have been any better. From the moment we pulled in the drive of the cabin we knew we had chosen the right place. The owner Daniel went out of his way to help us with every single step. The cabin was clean when we arrived. The hot tub was also in very good condition. The peacefulness of sitting on the deck having coffee in the morning was fantastic. My wife and I give this whole experience 5+ stars. We were in close proximity to old mans cave as well as many shops and markets. Everyone we encountered was super friendly. We will definitely be back again for sure.
