Perfect cabin and location for our annual family gathering!

This was our family's 7th year at Hocking Hills and is now our favorite place to stay. The large cabin was the best kept and cleanest location we have visited. The plunge pool and theater room were favorites. Perfect for a family gathering.

Hi Tracie, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're honored that after seven years of visiting Hocking Hills, this has become your favorite place to stay. It's great to hear you enjoyed the cleanliness, the plunge pool, and the theater room. We truly appreciate your recommendation and look forward to welcoming your family back for many more annual gatherings!

Return stay just as amazing

We just got back from our second stay at this family cabin in the woods, and somehow it was even better than the first. This has quickly become one of our favorite getaways, and we’re already looking forward to coming back again. If you’re looking for a quiet, relaxing escape, this place is hard to beat.

Wonderful

Cabin is wonderful and has plenty of stuff to do for every age group. Pool bigger than picture shows. Very clean and plenty of room. Plenty of board games and yard games. Theater room was stocked with dvds to watch.

Beautiful home! Incredibly peaceful.

The house was perfect for our family getaway. Love how secluded you feel at the home even though you are so close to all kinds of activities. Will be back again!

Relaxing, Refreshing, and Quiet

This location was perfect for our group of women to have our bible study retreat weekend. Quiet, all the amenities we needed and space to be together, and apart :)

Wonderful lodge with a well stocked kitchen!

Very clean accommodations. Plunge pool was a hit with kids. The kitchen had everything needed to prepare a wide variety of meals. TV room w/surround sound was outstanding. Our family of 14 had plenty of space.

A wonderful retreat that our family toughly enjoyed! A great gathering place!

Outdoor activities for the entire family, and a fantastic home to enjoy inside as well! Room for all the family to play games, electronic or board, play in the exercise pool or hot tub and enjoy a great meal around a wonderful dinning table! Our family loved the cabin and all the grounds around it. We will defiantly return!

Our stay at The Explorer Lodge was a truly amazing family getaway.

During our stay at The Explorer Lodge we had all the modern luxuries of home (and more) all while being surrounded by a beautiful and peaceful forest setting. The cabin was spacious, with plenty of room and entertainment for all. The kitchen had everything we could need to prepare a gourmet meal, and plenty of room for a large group dinner. The plunge pool exceeded our expectations- it was wonderful relaxing in the pool and the hot tub under the stars. Would love to stay again!

Amazing weekend getaway!

The Explorer Lodge felt like a life-sized Lincoln log cabin with all the amenities - plenty of room for the 14 of us to spread out, immaculate and beautiful décor. It was in the 40's during our stay and the heated plunge pool was put to good use by the kids (much larger than it looked in the pictures) while the adults lounged on the porches and enjoyed the views. We LOVED the private/natural setting, the gaming tables, the fire pit, the theatre room, & proximity to town. Thank you!
