Family-friendly vacation rentals in Nelsonville

We rented this cabin for our 10th wedding anniversary. It was perfect for our weekend d getaway and delivered what we were looking for...relaxation and peaceful. The cabin itself was beautiful, then add in a hot tub, and a great space for a fire pit and game room in the basement! We will definitely rent from Jon again in the future!! 1000% recommend this cabin and renting fromJon!

The cabin is gorgeous and surrounded by the forest, it feels like a fairytale when you look out of the windows. It is peaceful, private, cozy and had everything we needed and more- the kitchen is furnished with everything we needed to make food, we relaxed in the tub after a long day of hiking and being rained on, it was so nice! The cabin is 10 minutes drive away from Ash Cove, and Walmart and Kroger are about 30 minutes away. I loved this place and would love to go back!

Beautiful cabin! The place was very neat and the beds were very comfortable. We loved our time here. The view from the deck was also very beautiful and the area was so peaceful. Would definitely stay here again if we come back!

Great place and great experience…will definitely look to find one of the other places that were up the hill further that looked nice from our location to stay at.

Absolutely amazing great host, beautiful view and relaxing environment

Very cozy home. Only drawback from a travel perspective is that the area is extremely rural. If you are driving after dark, you might find it more challenging to navigate the roads and locate the property. We arrived right at dusk. This is only to alert people and has nothing to do with our actual stay or the owners, who was great. They left fresh eggs and sausage in the fridge for us! The property is incredibly peaceful and a wonderful place to unplug.

The space was so peaceful, loved drinking coffee while sitting on the front porch swing! We went to hocking hills early spring and the pole barn was perfect for our family, especially during colder weather and rain! My kids loved the activities in the barn and games in the house. The covered porches/hot tub/ pole barn make this location perfect for any time of year. The kids even caught a fish in the pond! Close enough to enjoy all of the typical hocking hills attractions! The house was not fancy, but had MORE than everything we need and was exactly as pictured! We had an awesome time! Thank you!

My family had an amazing stay at Nick and Bethany’s cabin. The house was spotless, comfortable and private. It looked exactly like it did in the pictures. The location was perfect. It felt secluded yet it was close enough to restaurants and activities that the Hocking Hills area offers. It was nice to have functional pots/pans and a good weber grill for once - a rarity for Airbnbs. The only criticisms we had were that the bath towels were a bit small and there could have been some extras (there might have actually been extras but we couldn’t find any). Also, the hot tub jets didn’t work as well as we thought they could have. It seemed like it had a hard time keeping temperature. Overall, the positives far outweighed the negatives. We will definitely consider staying here again!

Overall I had a great experience staying here. Check in process was simple and easy with a pin pad lock. The cabin itself was very clean on the inside. Unfortunately having a place out in the woods like that there are lots of bugs (ants) that tend to attract which we did have a lot of. However that would be any place like this. That is the on negative thing I can think of. The hot tub was definitely everyone’s favorite part and we enjoyed getting in it in the early mornings and late evenings. It’s very private and so peaceful!. The cabin is more than supplied with anything you might need. It has more stuff than any other place that I’ve stayed at. You feel right at home not having to worry about having stuff. I would definitely come back again this summer when we have some better weather!

This airbnb was nostalgic, peaceful and absolutely beautiful. Denise was helpful, timely with any issues. The water tank was turned off, she right away came over and turned it on. We left a set of keys. Denise mailed them to us right away. Hot tub was clean. The horse in the stable next to the cabin was beautiful. I really like that Denise was right down the road. Denise referred us to trails, sight seeing and the happenings in the area. I just loved it there. So comfortable. We plan on scheduling another visit in the winter. Thank you so much Denise.

Brookside cottage was a magical experience in terms of its location. The creek the water running the woods. It’s just spectacular. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was clean. You had everything that you needed. Location was quite peaceful. It was everything that we wanted. I spent a mom’s weekend there with my daughter from Ohio University, and we also enjoyed the hot tub despite the rain.

The place was absolutely beautiful. We got to see plenty of deer and other wildlife right in the backyard. The amenities were plentiful and had way more space than what the pictures showed. The hosts were very helpful and responsive. I would definitely recommend this Airbnb and would return myself.

Really enjoyed our week staying at Jons cabin. He was a great host and very hospitable. The cabin was perfect for our group and the town of Athens is only a 10 minute drive down the road. Four of us spent a week bowhunting the property and every guy saw deer while in the woods. We target mature bucks and unfortunately were not able to seal the deal. It wasn’t for a lack of trying or seeing deer. The bucks just outsmarted us this time. We are already booked for next season and looking forward to it.

Very nice place to stay for the weekend. Deborah was so sweet and let us feed bill. Beautiful place and extremely quiet. Good place to gather thoughts and escape from everything.

We spent the weekend for our children’s OU Graduation! Gorgeous cabin! Perfect for what we needed! We loved the large table for being together while eating and playing games. Enjoyed the pool table and hot tub too. We will be back!

We enjoyed our time at The Nest. It was private and cozy. Annette was proactive and gave so much helpful information that we followed throughout our time! Everything was perfect and we will definitely be using this place again.

Great location and very peaceful. The pool and hot tub were perfect. The pond is stocked. The keys would not work on any of the doors so a staff member came out and helped us get in. I would recommended sealing the deck since there are a lot of paint chips. We noticed there was a lot of dog hair under the sofas(we didn't have a dog).

We really enjoyed our stay here! The pool and hot tub were a huge bonus. The drive to most main hikes was between 25-30 minutes, so the location was ideal. Would definitely stay here again!

The carriage house was extremely nice and comfortable. I’d definitely recommend it if you are staying in the Lancaster area

Was a perfect cabin in Hocking Hills. The accommodations were very comfortable and the pool/hot tub made the days lovely

Overall, this place was GREAT! There was plenty of space, and it was very peaceful—perfect for a relaxing getaway. We stayed as a group of 7 (my wife, our 3 kids, and 2 adult friends), and it never felt crowded. Pros: Spacious, private, a nice pond nearby, great pool and hot tub, and a comfortable patio area to hang out. Cons: The beds were a bit loud and on the less comfortable side—not a deal breaker, but worth noting. Also, the couch and chair were broken when we arrived. They probably just need an update, though they were still usable and fairly comfortable. Despite a few minor things, the overall experience was very positive. We'd definitely stay here again!

I have rented many modest cabins in Hocking Hills, and Fullbrooks stands out—everything we needed it to be. Great: well-appointed kitchen (sharp knives, sugar, salt/pepper); several outdoor spaces; super clean (including hot tub); clear stargazing (Milky Way); private (not secluded); comfy furniture throughout; extra towels, TP, paper towels, dish/hand soap; shocking lack of bugs*; dog-friendly (our big pup relished the free range—within easy view). Okay: 20-30 min drive to most HH attractions; patchy media (could connect phones to wifi, but even after resetting the router, couldn’t connect to Netflix/cast to TV from our phones); off-site check in/out added ~15 min x2 to our drive. Tips: Bring back-up matches for a fire and your own napkins. To those mindful of plastics/PFAS, the kitchen has only scratched up nonstick cookware; bring your own pot and pan, as well as a container to collect recyclables to take home. *1st Choice sprays for bugs, including bees. Poor pollinators. ☹
