Fantastic! Despite some of the drawbacks others have noted, my now fiance and I had a great time! I booked this cabin because of the incredible privacy, and mainly to propose in Hocking Hills! (She said yes 😎) Craig was a very nice host and made sure the cabin was well stocked. Despite no running water it had everything you could think to need, and overall you can tell the cabin was built with safety/comfort in mind. We will definitely be staying here again! Thanks Craig!

We had a lovely time camping on Adam's stunning property! The Bear Den was impeccably clean with super comfy beds. The cabin has quite literally everything you could need/want. Usually we go a little bit more rustic, but having AC, a TV, and wifi was a nice treat. There was soo much to do. We had a blast fishing in the private pond, swimming in the shared one, having campfires at night with the provided firewood, and going to explore the property a bit on the very well maintained hiking trails. And WOW, they weren't kidding about the starry nights here. Breathtaking. If you're planning to stay here, definitely make sure to pick up groceries/bait for fishing on your way in as you are a ways out from the nearest grocery store/bait shop. Make sure to grab salt, cooking oil, and nightcrawlers. 🪱 Adam was very friendly, we ran into him a few times and he was super welcoming and helpful, but I greatly appreciate that he gave us plenty of privacy. I also got to meet the younger farm dog, which absolutely made my day. You can really tell that they put so much thought and energy into giving you the best stay possible. Thanks again!

Craig’s Cabin was awesome, it is a bit of a hike in but to be only 5 minutes from a shore and 12 minutes from town while being surrounded completely by nature with no neighbors to mind is wonderful. If you want nature with peace and quite Craig has done an amazing job! The cabin is comfortable and cozy with plenty of room, everything you need and nothing you don’t. Last but not least… Holy crap Craig is amazing! Friendly, responsive, helpful, and a very down to earth host that makes you feel welcome!

went with my bf, my best friend and her bf, we had a lot of fun swimming in the pond, seeing the cows and having camp fires both nights we were there. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a good place to stay that gives the "off the grid" feel, it really makes you feel like you're deep in the country, because well it is in the middle of nowhere. we had a blast and can't wait for our next adventure!

Really enjoyed staying at the beached houseboat! The AC was wonderful on scorching hot weekend. We user the fire pit to cook but it was really great to also have access to dishes, utensils, and a microwave inside the boat. The wifi at the boat was excellent and another great perk. We did swim in the lake the first day and really enjoyed it, but it was too hot to hike around the farm even though we would have liked to. Overall a really great spot!

This was a really cool place to stay. We loved the privacy and access to 300 acres. We did a lot of hiking- Adam has trails well marked and most have been recently mowed. We hiked in woods, on top of the ridgeline, around the pond, through the cow pasture...it was really awesome. And, very private. But- with everything we needed in the kitchen, Air Conditioning, and a great shower/toilet.

We had such a great stay at this peaceful off-grid cabin in the woods. It was quiet, relaxing, and the perfect place to unplug. Our dog loved roaming around and exploring—definitely pet-friendly! Craig was a fantastic host and made sure we had all the info we needed before arrival. Just a heads-up: bring bug spray! We’re already planning our next trip back.

I loved the cozy cabin feel! It had a fire pit and grill which was perfect for making food :) There's a wood stove/heater inside to keep you warm on cooler nights. Recommend wearing hiking boots as getting to the cabin is a little bit of a trek. 5/5 would visit again.
