Another great stay with Lazy Lane. I stayed in Cardinal's Crest this time. It was clean, nicely appointed and super cozy. I loved soaking in the hot tub after my hike. This morning I felt bad when I went out for a short walk and disturbed all the grazing deer! I can't say how much I appreciated the peace and quiet.

My hubby and I made a last minute decision to spend the weekend in Hocking Hills to do some hiking. We found Lazy Lane Cabins through a web search and the only cabin available on such short notice was Crooked Creek Cottage. I doubt we'll ever go back to the cabin we used to stay in after this cabin!! Check-in was a piece of cake. Due to Covid there was zero contact and we were able to grab our key in seconds. Their instructions to the cabin were a Godsend since GPS is worthless in the Hills. We found the cabin without any issues. What is great about this cabin is it's five miles from Old Man's Cave and it's on the same road. With our old cabin we would always get a little lost looking for the caves, but not this time. Once again, piece of cake. The cabin is very roomy and comfortable. The hot tub was AMAZING and the bed was comfy. There is also a pizza place two minutes away called Hunt Brothers Pizza that had THE BEST pizza!! The issues we had were very minimal. We had hoped to explore the property since the ad said it was sitting on 6 acres of land, but unfortunately there are quite a few cabins in the area that made it impossible to explore. And the television was so small, it made watching our movies at night very difficult. The sound on the TV was just awful. But we made do! We will definitely return to this cabin the next time we feel the need to visit the Hills.

Love the location, down a gravel road and very peaceful. Cabin is clean, hot tub is amazing! BUT the beds are horrible I think I will sleep on the couch tonight! The towels are small so I would bring bigger ones and there is no wine opener . But I would still come back here !

It was not handicapped friendly or anyone having walking problems and the TV does not pic up anything, the drive way needs work also for the price is to much for it when you have to clean up everything before you leave more then any other cabins that I have stayed in

My husband took me and our dog to one of Lazy Lane's cabins in November 2013 as an anniversary surprise.The staff are super friendly and welcomed us upon arrival to the main office. They gave us instructions on how to get to our cabin which were very helpful because our cabin was waaayyyy back in the woods and I don't think our GPS would have found it. We took our dog with us to a pet friendly cabin they offered. We stayed in the triangle shaped cabin. I don't remember what it was called exactly. Everything was great until we arrived at the cabin. The inside of the cabin was clean but not cozy at all like I was hoping. The couch was hard, leather, and not comfortable at all. The floors were cold tile and the walls were bare studs. I guess I expected the walls to have wood boards across them like a traditional cabin. There was a little stove/fireplace which was nice. The stairs going upstairs to the bedrooms were STEEP! Our dog couldn't climb them because they were so steep. I was even afraid of falling down them. The bed was hard as a rock and because of the triangle shape of the house, the walls tilted in and we both bumped our heads a few times. I literally got only a few hours of sleep the entire weekend.The kitchen was nicely set up. Nice, large refrigerator, stove, sink, and a few appliances. The bathroom was also very nice and clean. Now, I realize that we were deep in the woods and there are bugs, but I didn't expect there to be so many bugs inside the cabin. It all started with the ladybugs. Hundreds of them were crawling inside the cabin walls, floor, counter tops, etc. Ok, so there are ladybug infestations in the woods all the time but what I didn't expect was the cockroach we found in the kitchen. It crawled out from under the refigerator and I smashed it with my shoe. It was as big as a penny. I kind of freaked out but decided I wouldn't leave unless more showed up and I never saw another one after that. Thankfully!The TV in the livingroom was the size of a computer monitor which was a little annoying. I guess you don't stay in Hocking Hills to watch TV but I wanted to watch the news at night but could barely see the TV from the couch so I had to wheel it much closer.The saving grace of this cabin was the hot tub. It was clean, properly cared for, and hot when we arrived. It was kind of cool to hang out in the hot tub while it snowed. We heard a few animals creeping through the woods while we were in there so it made the experience exciting.While I don't think we will ever go back to this particular cabin again, I do think that we would go through Lazy Lane cabins if we ever stay in Hocking Hills again. They were friendly and I know that if we would have complained, they would have helped us out. We only stayed two nights so it didn't seem right to complain about a few bugs. For the price, it wasn't worth the stay in this cabin. I would have preferred a better, less-bug filled cabin.

Pretty close to trails and the hidden cave on the property was super cool. The cabin, Hidden Cave, was kind of a dud though. I don't mind cleaning up after myself, so that was okay. But we couldn't use the hot tub. The water was just too cold and we couldn't adjust the temperature. We called the property owners and asked them to turn up the heat. He either didn't show up or felt the temperature was fine where it is. Major bummer. Some of the fixtures were pretty janky too. Loose doorknobs that come off in your hand, a bedframe that was barely hanging on, and a random curtain on one of the windows where the others had none made the experience blah to say the least. Defiantly didn't feel like the money was worth the cabin.

We stayed at the Casa Del Sol cabin. It was spacious and much larger than the pictures would indicate. It was on a nice, wooded lot--although the driveway was steep and rutted. (Rent a 4-wheel drive truck if you dont already own one!)My only complaint is that they do the bare minimum to keep things maintained. Every window had a window crank that was stripped and it made it difficult to open the windows. There were no curtains on any of the windows--would have been nice to keep the sun out of the upstairs bedrooms during the day.The cleaning staff never dust--all of the tables in the living room were coated with a layer of it.I still give this place 3 stars because it is an excellent value for the money and you have lots of room.When planning your trip, you will want to bring along a lot of food and beverage as it is a 30+ minute drive to the nearest restaurant/stores (save for the Grouse's Nest Restaurant down the street). This place has a nice kitchen and a large grill and firepit and so I recommend cooking at home.

Overall, really good experience. Staff was wonderful. Super friendly and nice. We rented the Sky Breeze. Largest with wifi on site laundry with three levels and sleeps six. No pets allowed on this one. Heads up it is on a hill so be prepared and this wasn't shared upon our confirmation email. Luckily we have four wheel drive. Also, their policies are extended. Really extended. Basically if you don't comply to their policies you get charged including but not limited to doing your own dishes for the next guests, taking out your own trash among other many things. To their defense there are a lot of guests they welcome so they have to run a tight operation. Still my only feedback to that is not leaving a tip in the envelope for work they are not performing. Sorry gang. I don't mind holding up my end of the bargain but please don't look for tips for work the company doesn't perform. Tips: pack your own detergent, soap and dish washing liquid. Very little available and left in I'm assuming each property so bring your own. Flat screen TVs. DVD movie options all great choices: My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Scent of a Woman, Good Fellas. Nice welcoming...we had a "Welcome Kirk and Laura" on our front door upon arrival. Would consider again. Less than an hour from Columbus. Nice experience.

I decided to not stay at the cabin. The refund was for the wrong amount. I would not have canceled knowing how much I was losing. It was only suppose to be 50.

My boyfriend and I stayed at Creekside Hideaway recently. The cabin is .. well a cabin so we expected that. It was clean. The water is very foul smelling due to well water. But we only needed the cabin to sleep and eat so it was fine. We hiked both days and spent the evening by the fire pit and cooking on the grill. Hot tub was nice as it's covered in a screened in porch and was great listening to the rain. Cable or Dish did not work but that was okay with me. No cell service, also okay with me. Secluded which was very nice. We would not stay in this cabin again but would be interested in one of the others at a later time. Check in and check out was easy and no contact.
