My husband, two dogs and I celebrated my 65th birthday at the Hideout in Hocking Hills. It was a relaxing trip. The Hideout was very easy to find, located just a short drive from the little town of Laurelville. This quaint cottage had everything we needed during our stay for two people.
The bed was comfortable, the bathroom had a nice size walk-in shower (no tub), the kitchen had a nice amount of pots and pans, and a Keurig coffee maker. No washer and dryer, but we were only there for 3 nights, so that wasn’t a problem. There was a nice hot tub and fire pit (bring your own wood). The description said wood burning fireplace inside, but we found that it was a gas fireplace. The outside charcoal grill was the type you find in a park, so I ended up cooking in a cast iron skillet I brought with me.
We were able to get grocery delivery from InstaCart so that we didn’t have to spend time shopping, although my husband did go to Grandma Faye’s to get some wine and misc items. We also got some pretty tasty pizza from Laurelville Pizza on the last night of our stay.
The host was very responsive to any communication through emails and the handy welcome email they sent was very informative. We never did figure out how to use our apps for Netflix, Prime, YouTube TV etc through their Smart TV, but they had DirecTV for the little time we wanted to watch TV. The internet wasn’t the fastest, but it wasn’t horrible.
We enjoyed our stay and would probably stay here again.
