Just wanted a few days out of town with the grandkids. Doc's cabin was perfect! We had a great time.

The cabin was clean and fully stocked with everything but our clothing. Deco was styled for fun. The staircases can be a little bit challenging, but manageable. The teens did not want to leave!

We enjoyed our stay. I give it a 10 for cleanliness. The hot tub was great. We woke to coffee and an eagle flying over. The home was a little dated, but the price was right and we enjoyed.

Wonderful and Unique

We came here for my sister's 40th birthday party with our family and friends and this cabin was SO cute! We absolutely loved it. The kitchen was fulling stocked with seasonings and everything you needed, as well as coffee.The bedrooms were nice and plenty big for everyone. We loved how there were fans in every room and a night light. There are Movies, games and books! Communication was great with the host as well. Definitely recommend Doc's cabin. We would love to come back. Also a fun little touch is reading the notebooks from other people that have stayed and doing the scavenger hunt! We had a lovely time! Thank you . The bedrooms were nice .

Owners are outstanding

We did not actually get to stay at this property, so the five-star rating is not for the property itself, but rather, the ownership... A couple days before our reservation, the owner called very apologetic, informing us that there was a sewer backup and that we wouldn't be able to stay there. But he had a friend who owned a similar size house 5 minutes away, who would be able to put us up for the night, no change in rates or anything. He was super apologetic and went out of his way to get us alternate accommodations, that were every bit as good as what we had been expecting. Even before the unfortunate cancellation occurred, every time I had questions for them, he responded promptly and was very courteous and helpful. It appears that everything you might need for a stay at this property will be there upon arrival- the only thing you need to bring is food.So five star rating for ownership - and hopefully we get to rebook this place in the future because it looks to be wonderful.

It was fun being together and having so much room playing games or watching football or exploring this unique house. It was too wet to explore much of the outside but we did enjoy the hot tub. The stay ended with snow for our Texas family. Thank youyouTexasfamilyyou

Exploration and Discovery

A Christmas destinations. The house is so spacious the 4 boys found lots to do - exploring the woods and riverbed, enjoying the hot tub, playing in the game room, climbing the ladder and coming down the spiral staircase. The adults enjoyed the coziness of the living areas. Our cook enjoyed the well-stocked kitchen. We did not feel crowded or rushed. A very relaxing, enjoyable get together with our family!

Docs is #1

This was my second stay at Docs. It’s the best cabin in all of Ohio and I recommend this to everyone I know! It’s gorgeously built and maintained, plenty to do indoors and out even when the creek is freezing. Benji is a great host and kept up with communication right away.

My husband & I stayed here for an early Thanksgiving, so that we could visit with family, our grown kids could come and go, and i could make a dinner to take to my Mother, who lives near by. As we are from out of town now, this property served our needs perfectly. There are grocery stores nearby. The property is lovely with a rustic, whimsical, and historical decor. There are unique decor items every direction you look! Great conversation pieces, indeed! The house seems to just keep going- it’s huge, yet intimate. A perfect retreat for a large or small family gathering, with pool, ping pong, air hockey and darts in the game room area downstairs. The VIEWS… breathtaking. I hope we can return in the summer months as well, to better appreciate the winding river below. However, this property is beautiful any time if year. I also appreciated how well stocked the kitchen is. Most anything you may need, you will likely find it.

Doc's Cabin is Amazing!

Doc's cabin was awesome! My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary even though it was way too much house for just 2. A great price and it had everything we were looking for. A cabin with privacy, a fire pit and a hot tub, yet had modern conveniences such as appliances, tv and internet as well as being close enough to a quaint town in case we wanted to explore! So many interesting and fun things to do! My husband's favorite part was the view. We saw deer from the living room and kitchen windows in the mornings! My favorite thing was the easy to use gas fireplace in the living room! Another fireplace downstairs appeared to be able to burn wood. The furniture was very cozy with plenty of space for games, eating, etc. There were so many historic and antique things to look at within the house! A history of the previous owner was included in a binder so thoughtfully prepared with food and recreational suggestions. We only needed to bring food, clothes and ourselves! Stores and restaurants were nearby and the furthest we needed to go was less than 15 minutes away. I would suggest Fast Eddie's for Italian dinners for delivery. We loved this house so much we would like to plan a family trip to stay here again! Thank you so much to the hosts! We hope to visit again soon!

Fall on Full Display

First the leaves were at their peak this weekend and made our stay even more amazing. Doc’s was everything and more than we expected. We are a group of friends that just wanted to get together to relax and enjoy time together. And Doc’s filled that. The cabin was cute and quirky. It was clean and we had basicly all we needed. Definitely recommend

Family vacation 2024

Our family of four along with kids friends and our dog stayed for 3 nights. We had a blast! There was so much room that the girls took over the three bedrooms and yellow bathroom and the boys took over the basement. We all enjoyed eating meals at the kitchen table that accommodated all of us. The hot tub and the fire pit were hits and the boys enjoyed taking the kayak out for a ride, even thought the current coming back was a little strong! Would definitely recommend this property for the space, the layout and loved the very cool/unique decor!

Great vibe!!

Great place to get away and enjoy time with friends and family. We got married about 25 minutes from this cabin at my grandfather's property. Such a beautiful decor throughout. The a/c conditions need improvement for hotter months, the rope to the river needs to be replaced and the landscaping could use some attention. But overall for early in the season it is wonderful and we would book again.
