Really enjoyed our stay at Squirrel Haven, hoping to go back in the spring.

It is the perfect location very private and close to restaurants and Walmart. This is our second time staying here and we plan on going every year. The hot tub is very wonderful and very much relaxing.

Could have been cleaner. Overall a nice place to stay for our anniversary weekend. Quiet and out of the way but not too far from the attractions we wanted to visit, didn't have to interact with the hosts, very nice fire pit. But there was a bit of mold in the shower, the water in the hot tub had a yellow tint to it, and the towels smelled a bit funky. I'd consider bringing your own linens.Other things to be aware of: 1. The front door has a code lock and will relock itself automatically so make sure you take something with you to access the code if you step out.2. Property rules are very strict. There's several ways to end up with extra charges. No visitors, no dishes left out, ect.3. Amenities are bare minimum. A small bit of dish and hand soap, one trash bag, and one towel each per night.4. Shower is quite small. It has a built in seat, which is nice if needed, but significantly reduces standing space.

Location of the property is great. Very clean but overpowering smell of Pine Sol/cleaner upon entering. Had to open windows & put on fans.Cabin is nicely appointed but stark in kitchen amenities: 2 plates, 2cups, 2 salad bowls.....various sizes of each, but no lids for any of the cookware, so impossible to keep your food warm. Did not feel welcoming due to all the rule signs throughout the house. Overall, a very nice place for two!

What a fantastic cabin! We enjoyed the setting. Very quiet and plenty of room for us. The hot tub was a great way to end our days of hiking Hocking Hills!

The property was clean and perfect size for me and my partner. The hot tub was a good temp, but the jets weren’t working well and more felt like a hot bath. The bed needs replacing terribly. Overall, it was a great location, cozy, peaceful, and the covered porch was perfect for sitting outside, even when it rained.

Pros:The location was wonderful! The cabin was VERY clean! Cons:The bed is horrible!! When you sit down on the bed you sink into the middle. After the first night my back felt horrible and I was sore the next morning. The second night me and my husband slept on the couch (not much better). Sadly we wouldn’t stay again due to the sleeping situation. Also no tv in the bedroom. :(

Every thing was very nice. There were so many rules though it felt like a Nick Sabin commercial

Overall we had a fantastic time. I was disappointed in the hot tub. The jets are not powerful at all so it was basically just a hot bath. Also, the pictures make the place look bigger than it is. Not a problem for us but might be for people who don’t like the bed up against a wall.

Great little spot for a couple looking for a weekend away! Very clean, comfortable, and in a solid spot right in the middle of everything. We would definitely consider the rental again if we were looking.Hot tub didn't get any use because of the wind tunnel the hills create, just inescapable cold/wind in the winter. Also the fireplace isn't actually a fireplace; it's disappointingly just a cool LED display without any heat element to it.

It was the perfect little cozy cabin the only thing was the bed was not comfortable
10.0 / 10.0
The cabin was clean and comfortable. Shower had plenty of hot water and good pressure. It is close to several outdoor attractions.
The photos showed a drip coffee maker but upon arrival it was a Keurig. Luckily there were k-cups available until I could get to the store.
The real draw back is the hot tub water pump. It cycles on a timer to keep this flowing. However, the pumps are under the bedroom so it took a night to acclimate to them. Nothing can be done about this other than remove hot tub or drain during cooler weather

Overall, it was an amazing place to stay. Extremely tidy and clean and had very clear and straightforward directions/expectations. We will definitely be returning in the future for another visit!

Everything was super clean, and I’m super picky so that’s saying something!!
There were a lot of rules but nothing obscene in my opinion. I think that most of the people upset about the rules are smokers since there are a lot of things the hosts do to keep it smoke free.
The only thing we would change is the bed. It’s very soft and uncomfortable for us. You may want to bring an air mattress or sleep on the couch if you like something firmer.

The cabin was very clean for the most part, but the floor was pretty dirty. It didn't look dirty but our feet told a different story. We wore socks or shoes all the time. The bed was comfortable for us. Enough kitchen supplies to accommodate. Hot tub was a little small and the jets weren't very strong. It was really too hot/humid anyway. The location isn't horrible but you can hear cars on the road. We were out a lot so we didn't really need much more. It was a nice stay and a nice price.

The cabin was so clean! I’m very picky about cleanliness and I was impressed with how well this cabin is cleaned. The location is great! You really are close to Old Man’s Cave and the hikes you want to go on. The hot tub was wonderful. We will be back!

Great cabin. Just a bit too much road noise for us. But just the right size for a getaway for two!

This was a very nice place, just a few critical comments I think we should mention. The bed was just a double and not that comfortable. The kitchen was lacking, only 2 coffee cups, 4 glasses (2 plastic/2 glass) and just a few plates. It also lacked some nice sharp knives for cutting up veggies, fruit, etc. I also saw a comment about it would be nice to have a lamp (vs harsh overhead lights) and table in living area.
Very nice towels, great barbeque and hot tub, we used both. Seamless check in

This cabin was exactly as listed and expected. It was clean easy to find everything worked and hot tub was perfect. Only issue was the bed for us however it was just too soft for our preference and a small end table and lamp near the couch would be great. Fireplace was nice as well!

Squirel Haven was very nice. The location was perfect to explore Hocking Hills. The maps showing the location of all the caves, cites, etc seem so far but really were not. The hot tub was great due to the long days hiking.

We enjoyed the cabin very much. There was some sprucing up that could have been done! And it just could be spring cleaning hadn’t been done yet. Cobweb at the front door bathroom vent extremely full of lint, ceiling fans disgusting very clean from the human eye view down, but they forgot to look up!! They expect a lot of is too, leave it the way you found it, but forgot to make it perfect for me!
