Cabin for 6 · Hot Tub · Fire Pit · Dogs OK

Sherwood is a cabin for six with a little more flexibility than most. Two king bedrooms — one on the main floor, one on the lower level — plus a queen murphy bed in the lower level living area for however the group decides to sort itself out.

Named for Sherwood Anderson — the Ohio writer behind Winesburg, Ohio, who understood that the quieter moments are usually the ones worth remembering — it's one of four cabins at Notestone Reserve, our family-owned 14-acre property in Laurelville.

Perfect for groups of six who need flexible sleeping arrangements and room to breathe. Dogs welcome.

Getting Here and Getting Around

Notestone Reserve sits in the heart of the Hocking Hills — close enough to hit two or three trails in a day and still be back in time for the fire.

• Rock House — 3.3 miles / 7 min
• Conkle's Hollow — 8.8 miles / 15 min
• Old Man's Cave — 11 miles / 20 min
• Ash Cave — 16 miles / 26-28 min

Cedar Falls, Cantwell Cliffs, and the rest of the state park system are all within a short drive. Cell signal on the back-country roads can be spotty — download your directions before you leave home.

Sherwood sits at the bottom of a small hill. Under normal conditions it's accessible in most vehicles — but during winter months when ice and snow are a factor, 4WD or AWD is strongly recommended.

About the WiFi

We run Starlink satellite internet. It holds up well for most things — streaming, music, casual browsing. Video calls and long phone calls can cut out occasionally, especially on overcast days. If you're planning to work remotely, it can work, but plan for the occasional hiccup. We'd rather tell you upfront than have you find out mid-Zoom.

A Note on the Setting

We're in a wooded area and stay on top of regular pest control. That said, a ladybug or a curious spider showing up is just Hocking Hills being Hocking Hills.

House Rules

• No parties or events, including bachelor/bachelorette groups. And no glitter — it genuinely never goes away.
• Registered guests only on the property
• No smoking or vaping anywhere on the property, indoors or out
• No fireworks, ATVs, hunting, or weapons on the property
• No commercial photography or video without written approval
• Hot tub: striped towels only, keep the cover on between soaks, and please don't adjust the temperature below 100 degrees — it takes several hours to recover
