The cabin was nice, small. Just enough for the 2 of us. The fridge was a mini fridge so there was…read moreno freezer, which made prepping meals for the stay harder. In order to use the fire pit, you must purchase their fire wood which is inconvenient as well. They have a hidden fee for cleaning your cabin if you don't sweep the floor before you leave. They have a swimming pool which is smaller but we still enjoyed it. The office's hours are 10-7, which sucked for our attempt at an early checkout and on the road. The kitchen was closed our entire stay so we weren't able to order food here. We liked the cornhole which was next to our cabin. Another note is that the WiFi is absolutely terrible and will drop your devices constantly and only operates at 2G. The driveway up to the KOA also is super hard on your vehicle. This campground was close enough to hikes at Hocking Hills but we probably wouldn't stay ever again.

The cabin is secluded and quiet, the only thing we heard were owls and coyotes off in the distance. The heated pool was much nicer than a hot tub and the outdoor fireplace was awesome.

There are a few trails on the property which lead to a hammock garden and a suspension bridge.

We checked in and hung out for an hour before heading to dinner. On the way back I had to burn some time so we drove around the area sightseeing because we had to come back to the cabin at 7 for the Cupid special to be ready and set up. My wife was at awe when she walked in to candles set up, fire place roaring, bottle of wine in ice, and a rose with rose petals on the bed. Everything was so nice and we really enjoyed our night here! We also loved the hot tub and the overall atmosphere of the cabin. I highly recommended booking in February for the valentines day specials and all of the valentines day packages. We will be back!

I brought my husband for his birthday weekend, and we had such a fun, relaxing time surrounded by the peaceful scenery. We were greeted with beautiful celtic music playing as we entered our accommodations. All the areas of the cottage were clean and inviting, and we couldn't wait to unwind in front of the gas fireplace after unloading our belongings. We spent a lot of time in the hot tub- surrounded by vibrant hues of red and orange leaves glowing in the sunlight. Wrapped in the provided robes, we sipped wine in front of the large picture window in the living room, soaking in even more of fall's beauty. On the night of his birthday, we enjoyed a six course dinner that ended with the whole dining room singing him "Happy Birthday", which made him incredibly happy. Afterward, we took flashlights and went on a night walk on one of the trails behind the cottages. Our two night stay was magical. The effort that goes into making Glenlaurel a dedication to its Scottish roots was evident in every detail of our stay and we truly enjoyed immersing ourselves in the experience.

This is an amazing property near all the best hiking and tourist spots in the area. The decor is typical lodge but everything is spotless and like new. There are 2 large bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths and a large living/dining area with a fully stocked kitchen. There is a hot tub on the deck which was great for relaxing in the evenings. Also a fire pit and gas grill although you need to choose add on propane tank rental if you want to use the grill. Firewood is also an optional add on. The lodge is surrounded by woods with excellent bird watching. It is also dark enough in the evening for some star gazing. We highly recommend this spot for a family getaway (sleeps 4) - or check out the other great lodging options hosted by the Inn.

A Beautiful Setting, but a Disappointing Experience I first…read morediscovered the Geodomes at Inn & Spa Cedar Springs while searching online for unique places to stay in Hocking Hills, Ohio. The domes were a little more expensive than what we would normally spend for a couple of nights, but we decided to treat ourselves to a special experience. Unfortunately, our stay got off to a very difficult start. After arriving, we checked in, booked our two complimentary breakfasts, unloaded our vehicle, and settled into the dome. The accommodations themselves are nicely designed. The dome is a good size, with a small kitchen area and a bathroom with a private toilet and shower. There is no sink in the kitchen area, but overall, the space is comfortable and the large windows provide a beautiful view of the surrounding forest. The problem occurred almost immediately after we arrived. My wife went into the bathroom, and when she attempted to leave, the door would not open. The latch was catching on the frame and would not release. I am a window and door contractor with 25 years of experience, so I spent approximately 20 minutes trying to get the door open. Unfortunately, because I did not have tools with me and the door was installed so tightly, I was unable to release it. I went to the front desk for assistance and was told that the maintenance person had already left but that they would try to get him back. Approximately 15 minutes later, he returned, and we went to the dome together. He initially tried to slide a credit card between the door and frame for several minutes. I suggested removing the handle set and asked for a Phillips screwdriver. Unfortunately, the tool kit he had brought contained a socket set rather than a screwdriver. He had to return to his truck and came back with a small jeweler's screwdriver set, which was not suitable for the job. He then left again to find another screwdriver. While he was gone, I continued trying to release the latch using the foil cutter from a wine corkscrew. When he returned several minutes later, I was finally able to release the latch by applying upward pressure to the door while manipulating the latch with the foil cutter. My wife was trapped inside the bathroom for just over an hour. Once we got the door open, I suggested removing the handle set so the problem would not happen again during our stay. The maintenance person agreed, and the handle was removed. I want to be clear that I appreciated the effort made by the individual who came to help us. We later learned that he was actually the lawn care facilitator rather than a dedicated maintenance employee. He did what he could with the tools available to him. However, the fact that a guest was trapped inside a bathroom for more than an hour due to a defective door is a serious safety concern. I contacted management the following morning and was told that the guest relations manager would call me. I eventually received the call at approximately 4:30 p.m. We discussed what happened, but the manager appeared to believe that the entire incident had lasted only about 15 minutes. I corrected several details regarding the timeline and explained exactly what had occurred. Unfortunately, at the conclusion of the conversation, management offered no accommodation, discount, or other gesture acknowledging the inconvenience and potential safety issue. Even a simple offer of a couple of drinks at the bar would have gone a long way toward demonstrating that they valued our experience. Instead, the response left us feeling that the financial aspect of the stay was more important than customer satisfaction. There were a few other things worth mentioning. The water system in the dome uses naturally hard, untreated water, and the water has a noticeable sulfur smell when running. The odor can permeate the dome, so bringing an air freshener may be helpful. The on-site restaurant, however, was a positive part of our experience. The food was very good, and the service was excellent. The grounds are also well maintained. One additional concern is that the path lighting leading to the domes was not functioning during our stay. At night, this meant walking to and from the domes in essentially complete darkness, which is another issue that should be addressed from a safety standpoint. Overall, the Geodomes themselves are attractive, comfortable, and located in a beautiful setting. Unfortunately, our experience was overshadowed by the initial incident and, more importantly, by how management handled it afterward. Things can go wrong at any property. What matters is how management responds when they do. In our case, we were hoping for some acknowledgment that what happened was unacceptable and a small gesture to show that our safety and satisfaction mattered. That did not happen. The Geodomes at Inn & Spa Cedar Springs have a lot of potential, but based on our experience, I would not stay here again. If you decide to book, I would hope that everything g

We loved our anniversary trip here! It was such a peaceful getaway and even better than the photos…read more You truly have the entire property to yourself. It couldn't be more private or serene. It feels completely off the grid and it's the perfect place to relax and unwind. We were planning on going hiking at Hocking Hills, but there's so much to do around the property, we decided to stay put. We loved grilling out, sitting by the firepit, playing basketball, sitting on the front porch overlooking the nature preserve, hanging out in the hot tub, and relaxing with the very friendly cats that reside on the property (if you're an animal lover, they're really hard not to grow very fond of after a couple days!). We were especially impressed with the cleanliness of the cabin and how little bugs we saw for it being in the middle of the woods. WiFi worked really well, too. Cell phone service (as can be expected) was very spotty for us on different parts of the property. WiFi definitely helped, but phone calls or regular texts were a bit tricky (especially inside the cabin!). But a trip like this is supposed to be to put the iPhones down anyway, right? :) We'd really love to come back in the winter and enjoy it again in the snow!
