We had a wonderful 3 day stay at Almost Hiking! The cabin was well supplied and we appreciated the little things provided for our pets. We didn’t need to reach out to the owners during our stay (everything was perfect) and when I had questions prior to our stay, we received quick responses. We enjoyed using the hot tub and fire pit. It was pretty convenient getting to the state park to enjoy our hikes. The cabin was very clean, cozy and comfortable. Quiet settings with a great view of the stars! We would love to stay here again for future trips to Hocking.

Almost Hiking is a darling log cabin get-away! We enjoyed the hot tub, made full use of the kitchen, and delighted in our morning coffee on the front porch every day. The cabin was pristine, the beds were tall and comfy, the WiFi was fast, and the hot tub was a perfect 101! Thank you so much. We’ll be back!

My little family enjoyed our stay in this cabin. We have a 4 year old and an 18 month old, and I appreciated that this cabin was small, and safe for them. No stairs or dangerous areas to keep them out of, we were able to relax and enjoy ourselves. The kids also enjoyed the hot tub and roasting marshmallows on the fire.

Perfect size for us and our small dog. The host was easy to communicate with, and allowed us to check in a bit early due to storm approaching. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back!

The cabin was just as described. The only Downfall we experienced was the well water really smelled like rotten eggs. I know it isn’t the owners fault but it was pretty bad. The blankets also had a musty smell probably from the well water.

We really enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It was very clean, and comfortable for our family with a seven-year-old and nine-year-old, and Golden Retriever. Hikes in Hocking Hills were about 20 minutes away, and for us it was more important to be close to Logan- we were just minutes away from restaurants, grocery stores, and playgrounds. This felt like the perfect balance for our family of being 'in the woods' and also just outside town. I was prepped for the sulfur smell with the well water in the area and came well-prepared with several gallons of water, but I was still surprised by how strong the smell was, and we took fewer showers because of it. Added pluses for us were the spacious front porch, hot tub, gas fireplace, and fire pit, and grill/fire pit (we opted to roast marshmallows over the grill due to a burn warning at the nearby campground). With our dog, we also appreciated the hardwood floors through most of the house--just not as many overwhelming smells to take in.

We really liked the cabin. Being closer to town was a plus. The electronic door lock needs looked at. We had a hard time getting in the cabin three times during our stay. Some off the tree branches are hanging low along the driveway and could use a trimming. Besides that, it was great. We would stay again. Thank You, Kevin

Unfortunately it was too rainey to use the hottub. We could not figure out how to light the fireplace and were unable to find a number for the property manager. Could have used more bath towels and there were no hand towels or washcloths. Otherwise the cabin was hery nice and easy to get to. It was very clean upon arrival. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our meals. Very nice front porch and got to see deer going the driveway early in the morning. We would definitely stay there again.

The property was great. Beautiful cabin that had plenty of space for all, even our dog Kenzie. The hot tub was relaxing after a day of hiking or golf. Only gripe, all the waterfalls in Hocking Hills park were dried up. (Nasty drought). My suggestion, travel here in May or June ….. Carl our host was fantastic, we left an important item behind, and he mailed it asap. Could not of had better communication. Thx Carl.

This “cabin” (which is really just a regular house masquerading as a cabin) is located in a very run down, residential area of Hocking Hills. The house is not secluded and does not give you the feeling other cabins in the area do. Two doors down is a trailer with a bunch of trash littered throughout the yard. The area feels very unsafe. Upon arriving, not only was I disappointed by the location of the house and the listing itself, every amenity I was looking most forward to using was non-functioning. The hot tub was cold and the gas fireplace would not turn on.
