Relaxing getaway
Me and my husband stayed at the whippoorwill cabin for two nights. It was just what we needed. A quiet, relaxing getaway. The hot tub was a plus for sure. The cabin was clean, cozy and relaxing.

Much to be desired
Well, zero communication regarding how to actually use the door lock. Thank God they provide information on a back-up method. The first thing I noticed was the cleaning board stated the last cleaning was performed 1/5/2025 which is weird and gross because the last review was listed as 1/6/2025. Half drank water bottles in the bedroom. All the reviews are correct. Bring your own cooking utensils and spices and grab the microwave handle way up high if you need to use it because it really is broken. Do not try to open the bottom drawer of the stove because it's rigged to stay closed. You're going to question your safety driving up to the property. It was pretty safe, just a lot of noise and people yelling from nearby cabins. Take soaps, lotions, towels. The fireplace will only work if the temperature on the thermostat is actually lower than what the AC unit is programmed for. Essentially, be prepared to not have a working fireplace unless you purposely allow it to get cold in the cabin and then bump up the AC temp. It's weird. Lastly... the hot tub. It has some wear and tear but it looked and smelled clean. It's not. Bacteria causes folliculitis which you will contract if you use this tub. This is all information coming from personal experience with this specific cabin and its amenities. For added measure: Ash Cave and Cedar Falls are a 40 minute drive from the property. Logan and Hocking Hills Winery are about 25 minutes.

The cabin was clean and represented well. My only complaint would be there was no paper towels and we had to buy a cooking knife as all that was there was 3 butter knives..

Bring everything and expect nothing
Barely any cook wear, no knives, no spices, no bowls, microwave handle broken. In bathroom, broken clothes hamper, chipped toilet seat, cramped shower, showerhead stays on full blast and assaults you. Fireplace did not work, hot tub water was incredibly disgusting, hot tub cover falls off back porch if not careful, makes for a headache.

Weekend trip
This was a quick weekend trip to get out of town. The cabin was cute and exactly as the pictures described. In hindsight we should have looked for a place with a larger bed and full size sofa but that’s on us.

Clean, quiet and cozy cabin
Cabin was very nice. Only small inconveniences, like mentioned in earlier reviews, shower head not great, no night stand by bed, no sharp knives in kitchen, and dishes and pans not great. We enjoyed our stay.

We understand that sometimes the little things can get missed. It happens. But there were a lot of little things. From cleanliness to things being broken. It’s a wonderful cabin and the staff was quick to try to remedy some of the situations. There’s just room for improvement.

We had a nice overnight stay. It was clean and comfortable. Would recommend getting rid of bench by fire pit as it's a safety hazard, could fall through easily.

Cabin Stay
Very cozy and pleasant cabin. The bed was actually the most comfortable ive slept in outside of my own. Couple of downsides are needs new cooking pans. The frying pan was the worst. Not at all flat anymore so mafe cooking difficult. Shower stall is so small there is no way to keep wayer from getting outside of curtain when getting in. Could use a handheld showerhead to alleviate that. Coyld also use some hooks near shower for hanging towels. Overall a good experience tho.
