I need to share with you a really fantastic cabin resort that I had the pleasure to stay at over a long weekend. I stayed at Cedar Grove Lodging in Hocking Hills, Ohio at the end of October. The cabin resort is located roughly twenty-five minutes from the town of Logan and is located in Hocking Hills. It is located near Old Man's Cave, which is probably the most famous and biggest attraction at Hocking Hills. I spent the first day exploring the different trails, caves, waterfalls, and woodland on my doorstep. Cedar Grove Lodging is owned by the parents of my cousin's husband, and their wedding reception and breakfast was held here. I will be posting some photographs of the wedding in a different post, but I really wanted to add some photographs and a write-up of the cabins as we had a lovely visit. The only downside was that we had to leave and we need to go back to explore more!
All of the cabins are pet-friendly, but this is with prior agreement from the guests. I thought this was a nice touch as not all places allow pets to stay. We stayed at Stillwater Lodge, which is the newest luxury cabin at the resort and sleeps up to 19 guests across five bedrooms. It is next to the "catch and release" fishing pond. This cabin is built over three floors with the kitchen and main lounge on the ground floor, a separate lounge and game room downstairs, a break-out area upstairs and bedrooms on each floor.
Visitors could make use of the outside barbeque grill, which overlooks the fishing pond. Or, they can use the fully-furnished kitchen in the warm indoors. Pancake mix, a little pot of oil, and jar of maple syrup greeted us so that we could make American-style pancakes.
On the ground floor, guests can use the outdoor swing on the wrap-around porch, use the fire pit below, or enjoy the views over the fishing pond. We saw a few deer in the forest here.
The cabins came with Wi-Fi Internet and cable television with DVD players. There was also a gaming system, and guests can borrow board games and films from the guest house across the road. There was a large selection of films and board games to choose from. Ironing board and washing machines are also located here.
There were four bathrooms with two of these being en-suites. One of the en-suites had a massive double-shower, and two of the other bathrooms also had large showers.
The upstairs was a partial-upstairs with an open area with views below to the lounge.
The lower floor had three bunk beds and the separate lounge with a pool table.
And, the hot tub was on this level. I will confess that I have never used a hot tub, and I still have never used a hot tub. We did not have time to use it.
Here are some more lovely views, just in case you are not won over...
Last, but not least, the event lodge is the newest edition to Cedar Grove Lodging resort. This was just finished in time for my cousin's wedding in October, and it will be hosting other weddings and events in the many years to come. It is a very spacious venue with its own kitchen and other areas, including its own fire pit at the back.
We had a fantastic stay and wanted to tell you all about it. If you need a reason to go to Hocking Hills, check out some of the posts that I have written already. Also, there's more to come! There is quite a lot to see and do in this part of Ohio. The university town of Athens, where I went to university, is near-by and is worth a visit too. There's also quite a lot of places to explore and shop at in the area. There is something for everyone. To get a taste of what Hocking Hills has to offer, see below:
