The property was as advertised. It was on a lazy river which was a wonderful backdrop for our hot tub sessions. The cabin was clean and well appointed. We enjoyed our stay and hope to return in warmer weather in order to take advantage of the kayaks.
A fun, simply laid out, fairly private, well kept, up to date place that would be easy to spend alot of time at. The closed in porch and backyard made it easy to keep tabs on our dog. The hot tub was wonderful, the big firepit on the porch got plenty of use and the nice section of river behind the property I can see being tons of fun when its warmer. Excited to come back sometime
We had an amazing stay, even though it raines for majority of our trio we made the best of it. We fished in the river and hubby caught 2 catfish. We went and visited the Amish country and local eataries very cool places
The cabin was great, loved the location along the river. Enjoyed the large deck, grill, and hot tub. Property was very clean and had everything we needed. Thanks for the great stay.

We came to Ohio at the request of our son who chose that as his vacation spot. We really enjoyed the beauty of the state. The cabin was perfect. It had everything we needed and was exceptionally neat and clean. We enjoyed the hot tub, fire pit and the kayaks. We found many things to do in the area and the weather was perfect. Many thanks to the hosts!!
Upon arrival everything was clean and well taken care of. Hosts respond quickly to our call. Very nice complimentary wine and pumpkin bread! Peaceful and relaxing hotub, overall very nice place to stay. We plan to go back!
The property is really nice, great porch. The house is very close to route 36 so it can be quite loud on the porch with semis and farm equipment passing by. Political candidate signs stuck up at the entrance is also not a very welcoming start or a good look for a rental property. Otherwise, very clean and comfortable.
The cabin is in an excellent location on the river with a spectacular view. The outside deck is a very nice addition to the cabin ecpeience and enhances the stay.
we had such a great time kayaking, hot tubbing and biking on the nearby kokosing gap trail. the cabin was exactly as described, well-stocked and comfy! communication with the property owner was quick and seamless. we would recommend this place to anyone with a small group and we hope to stay again ourselves someday!
We enjoyed our getaway. The property's location along the river help set the mood for a relaxing setting. The property had all the needed items to make it really feel like home.
We had a great stay and enjoyed our time. Everything we could've needed was already there even down to Scotch tape! We felt very at home as it was so welcoming and very charming. Thanks for being such great Hosts. The welcoming gifts of wine and bread were thoughtful and appreciated. Theres so much to do and not enough time to enjoy it all. Definitely would stay again and recommend to others. A real gem!
Quaint cabin, wonderful hosts! We loved the fenced in deck, it was perfect for our dog. The property was just as described. We would definitely stay again! Prompt communication with the host.
We enjoyed our stay at this lovely cabin. We especially appreciated all of the thoughtful touches like the wine, pumpkin bread, and books for kids on the coffee table.
