The Raven A-Frame - Modern Woodland Retreat near Hocking Hills and OU Campus

Located in Nelsonville, OH, The Raven A-Frame is a custom built cabin completed in 2023. Whether you're exploring Hocking Hills, visiting Ohio University, or wanting to relax and unwind, we've got you covered. Offering a fully equipped kitchen, cozy cotton bedding, 6 person hot tub, stone fire pit, and 22 foot ceilings with large windows perfect for bird and deer watching, you won't want to leave.

20 minutes to Ohio University
30 minutes to Hocking Hills Visitor Center

In an effort to be as transparent as possible, please note that if you're looking for absolute, total privacy, The Raven may not be for you. You will have privacy, as the cabin is surrounded by woods and has a 300 foot treelined, gravel driveway, but during the winter months when there are no leaves on the trees, other houses are visible. The cabin is built on a hillside and any neighbors are down below.

Also, while the cabin is not built near the highway, you can see the highway during the winter months. During the summer and fall, the leaves block it from sight and filter most noise. It is "in town" in an established neighborhood of Nelsonville. Being in town allows for easy access to things like grocery stores and restaurants, but does not allow for the complete solitude that some guests desire.

The venue was exactly how it was listed. The host was really sweet and was able to support us through our stay! Would highly recommend for a family or a couples getaway! The venue was surrounded by woods and you felt like you were in your own private oasis. We enjoyed the amenities of the property and did not need to travel to enjoy our stay.

This place is beautiful! New and clean and every amenity you could think of! The outdoor jetted spa was great. It was a great place to relax and the proximity being close to town and close to hiking trails in Hocking Hills, makes it an ideal place to stay. I will say it is closer to the interstate than I thought it would be, and sometime we could hear the traffic. Besides that, we would definitely recommend and will stay again when we are in the area.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Raven. The host went way overboard to add little comforts from snacks to coffee and creamer to firewood. We really enjoyed all aspects of stay and visit to the area. We will be back
