Kick Back Cabin - The Original - Hot Tub and Walking Trails

Tucked back in the woods, at the edge of 23 acres of a roughly 150 yr. old farm, this spacious, Amish built cabin built in 2006, is the ideal place to kick back and relax with friends or just your better half. Kick Back Cabin was originally the previous owner's art studio. With walking trails on the property that lead to a small creek and a seasonal pond, the scenery is sure to inspire.

This cabin is also at the epicenter of the Hocking Hills region and all that it has to offer!

Looking for more scenery and hiking? 17 miles to Ash Cave / 12 miles to the famous Uncle Buck's Riding Stable and Dance Barn

Have a passion for boating, fishing, or swimming? 7 miles to Lake Hope State Park and Murray's Landing Canoe Livery

Adventure seeker? 17 miles to R Adventure Park / 20 miles to Hocking Hills Canopy Tours

History lover? 6.5 miles to historic Nelsonville, OH (Home of Hocking Valley Scenic Railway and Rocky Boot)

Love the night life or unique cuisine? 16 miles to Athens, home of Ohio University

Kick Back Cabin is truly in the middle of everything the Hocking Hills region has to offer!

It was amazing. Eveything was better than they described. The bed was so comfortable. The hot tub before each night gave us the best sleep. But the thing that made it extra special was the hand written personal note that was left on the table that will make it in our scrapbook was the chefs kiss. Also internet was not amazing but adequate to snuggle up and watch movies with.

Loved staying at this cabin in the woods. Very private, quiet and relaxing. Despite all the attractions in Hocking Hills we spent a lot of time just hanging out with our 2 dogs. Nice trails right out the door. Would love to go back! Kick Back cabin is a very appropriate name.
