Gayles - Lakeview Cottage

Absolutely Loved staying here, will definitely do it again!

I think what I would have change, it staying at least one extra night. It is clean, has everything you need, accesible, quiet, very close to the state park. I will totally be coming back!

My best friend and I went for a much needed girls trip get away for the summer to relax. The place was very clean and neat and perfect ly equipped for our stay. We were able to do hiking at Old Man’s Cave and also went to the Hocking Hills Winery. We would definitely stay again in the future. The host was very attentive. Beautiful lake and location.

We loved our stay here. The kayaks were a bonus. The lake was fun. The cabin had everything we needed. We'd stay here again!

Our stay was amazing! This was our second annual trip to the same cottage and we enjoyed it so much!!! The access to the lake was absolutely amazing and it was the perfect setting for a relaxing, special girls trip!

Initially when we arrived it was peaceful. Then came the gatherings and parties down at the beach / swimming area, not to mention a few days worth of late night fireworks. There were several individuals doing donuts on 4wheelers all evening long. The quiet hours after 10pm does not exist. I would highly suggest that if you are going to advertise your house to look a certain way then it should be what we expect. There are no blankets in the house. It can get cold downstairs and you have these very thin bed covers on the beds. I am not sure if they even qualify as comforters. This is a six person max house, however your sitting area in the living room allows for four. The remote in the living room did not work due to no batteries. The fire pit only had two chairs (which were from the patio table on the deck) and two benches to sit on. If you're like me and like to relax around the fire, the benches were not comfortable for that. Please make sure to have blankets, everything works and maybe some window coverings for that early morning sun. Overall it wasn't bad. I just felt a little misled by the description and pictures.

The cabin did meet most of our needs. The beds where pretty comfortable. The roads where horrible, but it did rain a lot during our stay. Speaking of that. We really couldn't enjoy the porch or hot tub much because they are not covered. And right above the hot tub is a power line. That is kinda scary. They said the cabin was fully stocked and for the most part it was. But we had to go to the store many times to get things. So I will tell you what you need to bring. Because a store is 20-30 minutes away. They said to bring your own charcoal for the grill, but you Also need to bring a lighter. No batteries in TV remote. They have a washer and dryer but so not provide any laundry soap. They left us 4 k cups for 6 people for the week. So bring your own coffee also creamer and sugar. I am used to vacation homes providing all of these things so that was disappointing that we had to purchase all of those items. Had we known we would have packed them. Hopefully this helps someone else or they start providing all of this.

We had a wonderful stay. Place is as advertised. Love the pond for fishing and playing. Close to Hocking Hills sites. Would stay again.

Property was great, very clean and comfortable. My teens loved the fishing lake and we all loved the hot tub. We will be back soon.

We had a great time taking our kids away for the weekend. Quick 30 minute drive to Old Man’s Cave, hot tub on site and relaxing environment.The house is super cozy, extremely clean and a great place to stay.

We had a wonderful weekend getaway! The house was beautifully furnished with all the essentials, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. The hot tub was exactly what we needed to relax, and we loved the little bar area and outdoor TV. The only downside was that the hot tub lacked privacy, as people could walk or drive by, which felt a bit awkward. Other than that, everything was perfect, and we would definitely stay again!

Everything about this location was beautiful. Everything we needed to relax was provided.

Nice peaceful stay! Enjoyed the kayak, hot tub and amenities.

We had such a wonderful time at the property. This was my second time - we had to bring friends with us this time. We even saw the northern lights! Thank you for having us!
