Frost is a lofted tiny home for two â small on square footage, generous where it counts. Queen bed under the eaves, private hot tub on the deck, fire pit stocked and ready for the night ahead.
It sits in a small cluster of four tiny homes at Notestone Reserve, our family-owned 14-acre property in the Hocking Hills. Each unit has its own outdoor space â privacy panels around the hot tub and natural shrub and tree coverage between units keep things feeling separate without being walled off. Most guests spend the whole stay in their own lane: hot tub, fire pit, patio. The shared game room is a short walk across the property when you want it, easy to skip when you don't.
Named for Robert Frost, who spent his career paying close attention to the woods around him. It suits the location.

đșïž Getting Here & Getting Around
Notestone Reserve sits in the heart of the Hocking Hills â close enough to hit two or three trails in a day and still be back in time for the fire.
âą Rock House â 3.3 miles · 7 min
âą Conkle's Hollow â 8.8 miles · 15 min
âą Old Man's Cave â 11 miles · 20 min
âą Ash Cave â 16 miles · 26 - 28 min
Cedar Falls, Cantwell Cliffs, and the rest of the state park system are all within a short drive. Cell signal on the back-country roads can be spotty â download your directions before you leave home.
Under normal conditions the driveway is accessible in just about any vehicle. During winter months when ice and snow are a factor, we recommend 4WD or AWD for the back roads leading in â the driveway to Frost itself is typically fine without it.
đ¶ About the WiFi
We run Starlink satellite internet. It holds up well for most things â streaming, music, casual browsing. Video calls and long phone calls can cut out occasionally, especially on overcast days when the router is working harder to find signal. If you're planning to work remotely, it can work, but plan for the occasional hiccup. We'd rather tell you upfront than have you find out mid-Zoom.
đż A Note on the Setting
We're in a wooded area and stay on top of regular pest control. That said, a ladybug or a curious spider showing up is just Hocking Hills being Hocking Hills.
đ A Few Things We Ask
âą No parties or events, including bachelor/bachelorette groups. And no glitter â it genuinely never goes away.
âą Registered guests only on the property
âą No smoking or vaping anywhere on the property, indoors or out
âą No fireworks, ATVs, hunting, or weapons on the property

âą Hot tub: striped towels only, keep the cover on between soaks, and please don't adjust the temperature below 100 degreesâ it takes several hours to recover
