“A lodge built around a waterfall, swimming hole, and space for everyone to gather”
This six-bedroom lodge spreads across multiple levels, each designed for a different kind of togetherness. The main living room centers around comfortable seating with a dining table that converts to ping pong when the mood shifts. A trap door near the end table leads down to the game room below, where air hockey, arcade games, and foosball keep the energy going. On the other side of the kitchen, a quieter den offers cozy seating for smaller conversations or morning coffee. The kitchen handles groups well with a double oven, gas stovetop, two dishwashers, and a dedicated coffee cabinet. Among the six bedrooms, the Waterfall Room stands out with its queen bed positioned to take in views of nature and the sound of falling water. A sleeping loft adds flexibility for the full eighteen-guest capacity.
The property sits in Hocking Hills, where a seasonal waterfall runs right past the lodge and feeds a swimming hole open from May through October. Rock faces wait just a five-minute hike away. The landscape here is all sandstone cliffs, hemlock ravines, and the kind of quiet that settles in once you leave the main roads behind.
Days here tend to split between active and restful. Mornings might start with coffee on the expansive deck before a short hike to explore the rock formations. Afternoons could mean swimming in the natural pool or tournament-style competitions in the game room. Evenings often migrate to the eight-person hot tub or gather around the Solo stove, letting conversation drift until someone suggests one more game of cornhole. The space works for groups who want options without having to leave the property.
