We absolutely loved our stay! The cabin was extremely clean and well-kept. Everything was exactly as advertised. It is so quiet on the property and the sky is so dark - we loved looking at the stars from the hot tub. Travel to Old Man's Cave and into Logan was easy. The luxury soaps and bathroom amenities were a nice touch. We only needed to show up and relax. We are already looking at dates for a return trip.
Aaron & Patty's place has become a home away from home for me. It is a wonderful cabin in a beautiful location. Everything is pristine, thoughtfully decorated and well maintained. Everything I needed was provided from extra towels to toiletries like razors and toothbrushes. This was my second time staying at their cabin (Bear's Den) in the past few months and I absolutely loved it. It's within 10-15 minutes to many of the main attractions for outdoor activities as well as local shopping. You won't regret booking a stay here!!
I recently spent a couple nights at Creekside for a friend's reunion and had a great time. We started our with plans to hop all over the area but the property was so nice we only took one small excursion to Conkle's Hollow which, like every other area attraction, is only a short drive away. The property is large with cool hiking trails and plenty of wild beauty. The cottage was well appointed with every amenity we could have needed. The owners are conscientious about providing choices for people like myself who can't use sugar or caffeine. The kitchen was large enough for four of us to use at the same time. The furniture is comfortable and the beds as well as the futon provided a rejuvenating rest. The hosts are responsive and you can tell they love this property and want to provide the best stay possible. Would definitely stay here again
I felt completely at home after 30 minutes of arrival. The owners have spared no expense in outfitting this property! Everything is top-notch! The stocked coffee bar was a pleasant surprise! The beds were the most comfortable we've experienced while renting in Hocking Hills. It was so quiet and peaceful and we slept fabulously! The bathrooms are gorgeous and had everything you need. We will definitely be coming back!!
Where do I even begin?! The love & care put into this cabin definitely shows. The owners have thought of absolutely everything! The cabin is so welcoming & inviting. It was a great getaway for my fiancé & I. There is amazing views along with peace & quiet. Lots of laughs & memories were made during our trip. Thank you so much for being the best hosts! This place is highly recommended.
Thank you, Lisa! This is such a nice review. We are so glad you enjoyed your time at Creekside!
This is a great place to stay! Close to all the local attractions you could ever need. The cabin itself is absolutely gorgeous and has everything you need for your stay. We will be coming back again and again.
We had the best time. This cabin has everything! You've thought of every little detail, making it a very comfortable stay. The amount of care you've put into this place makes it very special. Lots of great memories going home!

Marketing and Communications Specialist, Writer, Musician, and Hairstylist turned Bespoke Vacation Rental Hosts. We’re Aaron and Patty, and we are honored to host you!
A bit about Aaron:
I’m a native Ohioan, Cleveland Browns fanatic (there’s always next year) Rock and Roll Drummer of over 30 years, and a former food truck owner turned corporate Marketing and Communications aficionado. I love slinging my signature Korean Beef Tacos, wrestling with my dogs, talking music, and enjoying a juicy IPA.
A bit about Patty:
I’m a creative, introverted army kid that recently laid down my scissors after a 20 year career as a hairstylist. Always being the new kid instilled in me a deep passion of caring for others and a love of creating warm, welcoming, community-focused environments. I love spending time outdoors with my family hiking, going to festivals, and gardening, and always have to find the local hot spot for coffee when traveling.
