Comfortable and awesome

Very cozy and casual place in an awesome area. My wife and I stayed for 4 nights during a terrible heat wave, and we were so very comfortable and cool in The Nest. We hiked for hours in the heat at the various gorgeous Hocking Hills parks, and loved to rest our sore bodies in the hot tub. The pool table and easy-to-use Ruko tv offered us a great late night relaxation and recharge. Gorgeous view of the valley off the porch. Hunter was an awesome and communicative host. Highly recommend!

Nice little cabin. Wanted to enjoy hot tub more, but hard to do in 90 degree summer weather. Still got in though in morning and late night for some hydro therapy

Such a cozy cabin that is very secluded for that disconnection you are looking for! The view is spectacular from the back deck and the hot tub helped finish the day/night off after hiking all day! Hunter is very attentive and responds very quickly! Great place and great host!

This house is NOT ready to be rented. We arrived to find several massive Amazon boxes blocking the stairs inside the home. We didn’t order them, yet the property manager told us to “just move them.” A 4-inch wooden splinter was hanging off the outdoor stairs, which could have seriously injured someone. Within hours of being there, the sliding glass door handle fell off and injured my foot. It wasn’t fixed until day SIX of our stay. Total lack of cleanliness. There were dead roaches and large water bugs throughout the home. The floors were so dirty our bare feet were black. Every dish and pan was either crusted with grime or covered in stains, the dishwasher was stained with mold & the garbage disposal didn’t work. The entire house felt like it hadn’t been cleaned in months, and smelled of mildew. The refrigerator never got cold, even after multiple reports to the manager. It stayed stuck at level 1 out of 9, ruining groceries. The ice maker didn’t work either so we were on the beach, on a limited island, with no cold drinks. There was also no propane for the grill, which was supposed to be included. When we asked, they told us to go to another property to get a tank ourselves. This property lacked many basic amenities. The washing machine was also broken. Yet you are expected to wash the towels before you leave. You’re responsible for the cleaning, but cant even do it properly because the appliances dont work. One of the bedroom doors doesnt close. Many better options on NCI.

Amazing Valentines Trip

Me and my girlfriend booked with Hunter and he was honestly the best host i’ve ever had at any cabin. He was very helpful and made sure we were well taken care of. The cabin was beautiful and was amazing not only for my partner but my beautiful furbaby as well. We will make sure to hook again and we think other should too!!
