About this home
Welcome to paradise - a true escape nestled on 5 private wooded acres in the heart of Ohio's Hocking Hills region. This charming 1-bedroom, 1-bath log cabin offers the perfect blend of rustic character and modern comfort, complete with an established short-term rental history already in place.

The open-concept living and kitchen area feels warm and inviting, featuring a beautifully updated kitchen completed in 2025 with white shaker cabinetry and a functional galley-style layout designed for easy living and entertaining.
