    We stayed only one night, and it was quite nice. Not perfect but nice. My wife and I loved The South’s décor. We were very comfortable there and plan to return sometime. There were many pluses but also some problems: I could not figure out the sound system; The TV did not work initially; broadband problems, I think, caused error messages; tried our own device but that, too, was difficult and we wasted a lot of time with that; The sauna and hot tub were wonderful but lacked privacy; more/better screening from the road would have been nice; The hot tub needs a railing or grab bar of some sort for use during entry/exit; The refrigerator door does not open easily and seems to be scraping the wall; We could not get the dishwasher to work; the instructions were hard to understand.

    Best family vacation yet! We have been so many places, but this was spectacular! Felt like we were in the Blue Ridge Mountains. So comfortable for our family of four. Curated beautifully, as a collector of mid century modern furniture for 30 years, I appreciated all of the design elements down to the books on the shelves! The sauna was the icing on the cake. We will be back for sure!

    This is the place to unplug and recharge. The south house feels like you’re staying in a bougie treehouse. Two things: the incessant chiming of the refrigerator is annoying and the one mile trail around the property is more choose your own adventure than designated trail. Once you hit the cave you’re on your own to figure out how to finish the path. Would definitely come back to relax again!

    The space and location were perfect! We especially liked the sauna after a day of hiking. One minor thing, bring coffee as the choice provided was not good.

    It's just ok. For the amount they charge a night you would think the place would be immaculate but instead felt like it was rush-cleaned. When we came in there were many rugs that were askew. The bed was sloppily made. The window treatment pulley on the bedroom window was broken off so you couldn't roll it up to let the light in. The remote holder for the bedroom fan was coming off of the wall, the screw was barely secured in the drywall. There was a dead bug on the dining table, it looks like it had been there a while. The toilet paper roll was halfway off the holder. The heating unit in the room was so noisy when it would run every 10 minutes we had to shut it off because it was just too annoying. The TV in the living room was hi-tech and pretty but the owner spent their money to make it a picture frame TV and not on a swivel so it was very hard to view it while lounging on the couch. The flooring in the shower is not permanently set, every time you took a step on the wood it wobbled and felt very unsafe. I felt like I was going to trip on it and fall at any time. A wood rung on the back lounger in the sauna was broken in half. All in all, there were SO many small things wrong/broken on this rental it didn't feel like it was worth the price we paid to stay there. There was a ton of high-tech gadgets in the unit, but for someone looking for quality over whatever the latest trendy techie fixture is, this cabin is overrated. *Idyll Reserve respose* Dear Sheran, thank you so much for your comments. We will get our handy man out immediately to attach the loose remote control holder and to look at the heating unit and shower floor. We'll go through the rest of your comments with our cleaning team, and will get a new sauna lounger on order as well. Sometimes it takes living in the cabin for a few days to notice these things. Thanks again, and we hope to see you again soon, and hope to exceed your expectations next time! -Laura

    My husband and I stayed in The South to celebrate our one year wedding anniversary. The cabin was stunning at every turn, super cozy, and honestly hard to leave. We can't wait to visit again in the future!

    Perhaps not the best time to be in hocking hills (not quite fall colors, overly busy weekend on the trails and still pretty warm by Ohio standards), however this Cabin made up for all of that with it's incredible styling, modern amenities and just cozy feeling. I've been to a few cabins in HH before but this one takes the cake, easily. It is a little on the expensive side, but with all the features they've added to this cabin, it more than makes up for it. Highly recommend!

    My husband and I had a wonderful two night stay. The cabin was clean, beautiful decorated and with clear communication from Laura through the process. Just a few minutes drive from a bunch of hiking (we did 18 miles in 48 hours). It was nice to come back and relax in the hot tub and sauna. The only improvement I would like to see would be better shades in the bedroom, as light peaked in from deck lights and sun in the morning. It was a perfect 10/10 stay and we hope to return again soon! Thank you for having us.

    We had a wonderful time at the South. It was pure luxury and we will definitely be back. There were a few amenities that did not work, such as the outdoor floor lights, the outdoor shower, and the indoor fireplace. But I trust those will be fixed in time, and they didn't detract substantially from our experience.
