******************NOTE********************** Our craft house is set next to our Geneva lodge which houses up to 72 persons. These two units are are about 50 yards apart but still neighboring, meaning there is a possibility that there will be a large neighboring group that has already booked and the craft house is still left available. We have never had any issue with any of our guest booking the craft house and being next door to the groups in the lodge, however if this would be a situation that would cause discomfort or any issue please send us a message before you book to insure that the lodge is not booked for your dates.
******Notice pool is open seasonally for reservation only, due to life guard requirements. Our pool will close the first week of August.
*******************NOTE********************* We would like to inform our Potential guest for the month of October that every Friday night in October, our Geneva Hills property will be hosting a festival called firelight Fridays. We inform you this because there will be increased activity and people on the grounds during these events. If you wish to stay during these dates, you are more than welcome to participate in all the festivities. It should be noted that the craft house is more secluded and away from these activities than any other building. There is a high probability that any of these activities would not even be a bother or any issue, we just want to make sure this is known before hand so travelers are not caught off guard or unhappy by not being told about this.
If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking.

Nice cottage and location. Not rave-worthy but nice.
Nice simple comfortable cottage with a slightly unappealing smell. Pretty sure the listing said there was a grill so we catered for that - no grill. Might explain the smell - everything has to be cooked indoors. Also thought a hot tub was advertised but maybe not. Comfortable beds.Good shower. Good wifi. Well equiped kitchen. Great fireplace and an outdoor firepit.

Quiet Cabin in the Woods
My family and I stayed at The Craft House for a long weekend in October 2024 and explored the parks in Hocking Hills. We enjoyed the simple and quiet atmosphere of Geneva Hills. There were many other occupants at Geneva Hills at the time of our stay but it seemed like we were the only ones there. The grounds were well kept with many walking paths and scenery to enjoy while at Geneva Hills, and Hocking Hills State Park was a short 30-40 minute drive away.
The Craft House was clean, well kept, and provided everything our family needed for a comfortable weekend in the woods. Check in and check out were simple with the help of our host. We enjoyed our time very much and will be visiting again in the future! Thank you!

Overpriced cabin
Overpriced for what this was. The cabin was very dirty and smells like mold. Is in need of good cleaning and updating. No light above bathroom mirror, towels and whole place smells like mold. I would not recommend this cabin.

I am sorry but I cannot give a five star for cleanness! Upstairs beds are very hard, so we camped on sofa bed still not real comfortable but better then beds in loft! If we return, I will bring an egg crate to sleep on It is a five star for the quiet and peaceful surroundings in the woods!! Lots of hiking trails!! I would have liked to have a vacuum to be able to clean floors!

Great cabin
We checked in on Friday and the fall activities night was fun. Our 8 year old granddaughter loved it. Did not realize there was a church group staying very close that were a little noisy late but not terrible. Absolutely gorgeous property. Wonderful walking paths and roads. Loved the location to old mans cave and other trails. Property managers were extremely nice and helpful.

Close by get away
The cabin was perfect, we had a wonderful time away! Everything we needed was provided, and it was very well kept. I was a little dissapointed at the location. From the picutrtes on the sight I though the cabin was on the lake. It's not far at all, but I wanted water front, which is not an option there.

Can't say enough about this perfect cabin in the woods of Geneva Hills and the delightful, friendly staff who did so much to make my stay memorable. Everything I needed, set in the woods, with hiking and kayaking on the property -- all this AND a wrap-around porch! :) I will definitely return to this place of tranquility.

Thank You for Honesty & Integrity
My husband and I rented this property for a 4-day getaway with our 2-yr-old son, who has a sensory disorder and hates loud groups and strangers too close to him. (And for some reason, he especially hates strangers singing near him.) We were concerned about renting this property since it was 50 yards from a lodge that could host big groups, so we inquired whether it was booked before we rented. We were informed that it was not booked, and the manager told us that he would let us know if it booked for our dates so that we could find other arrangements, given our situation. Unfortunately, the manager forgot to let us know about a large group that booked the lodge for our dates—and it was a school choir group…a singing nightmare for our son. We did not discover this until we called to confirm just a couple days before we arrived…well past the deadline for a full refund. The manager was honest enough to give us the full details about the choir group, and he had enough integrity to let us out of the rental agreement and give us a full refund for the cabin, understanding our son’s situation. He also assisted in helping us locate an alternative cabin in Hocking Hills that could accommodate us for the same dates. I want to thank this company for its honesty and integrity, even though we didn’t stay there. They could have tried to force us to stay and ruined our vacation, or at least tried to keep our money and made me come after them for it—a time-consuming and unpleasant experience for all involved. But they just did the right thing as a good company should. Thank you!!

craft house weekend
Very clean, comfy beds, well kept cabin. The only reason for four stars instead of 5 is that the "lake" is a pond and the pool looked pretty gross. We were planning on kayaking/swimming during our time there but once we saw both the options decided against it.

Absolutely beautiful
If your looking to check out of the world for a vacation the craft house is the place. Semi secluded cabin made checking out of everyday life easy.
Only thing that didn’t work well for us is that we planned this vacation around riding hocking hills on the Harley. This cabin is on a dirt path and up in the woods that unloading the motorcycle impossible. (My fault because before booking I asked about the road and parking, I just didn’t follow up). Either way we did ride there is a park not to far from the cabin that the city allowed up to park at for the day. And for the next day Dana offered to let us park the truck and trailer in driveway next to the campsite. We definitely appreciated the accommodations.
Absolutely beautiful place and friendly staff.
My husband said on the way out that we would definitely stay again.

Cute Little Cottage
My boyfriend and I stayed here for a great weekend visiting Hocking Hills State Park with our German Shepherd. It was a great little place to come back to after a day of hiking. Nice trails on property to exercise the pup after a long drive. Close to nearby attractions and grocery stores, kitchen has everything you'll need to cook meals. Only hiccup was the loft has a very low ceiling height where the beds are located myself (5'7") and my boyfriend (6'3") found it a bit tight up there. But overall all great place and would stay here again!
