Very nice place to stay while we were in the area visiting Hocking Hills. Our room was very clean and homey, and all the staff were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely visit again!

My boyfriend and I went for a weekend trip. Definitely far from hocking hills trails. It just felt like a basic hotel, nothing too special. The inside was clean other than in the shower there was a ton of other peoples hair stuck to the inside of the shower curtain. The breakfast was not ideal. Only a few items and they were out of milk one day so cereal was not an option. I get what you pay for.

It was a quick, one-night stay for a show in town. I checked in at 4p., went to the show, came back and slept, woke up and then left. Based on such a quick stay, it was sufficient and I encountered no issues.

The Lodge is a very well-maintained imposing structure with soaring ceiling in the reception area- highlighted by top-notch woodwork. There is ample parking outside. The room we were assigned had a log-frame Queen bed and a fully functioning refrigerator/freezer. The room coffee machine and coffee were of high quality (we did have to pick up extra decaf pods from the reception, along with Splenda packets so we did not have to use the pink sweetener typically kept in the rooms in most hotels). The breakfast was continental, and a little threadbare (muffins, lowfat milk and yogurt, and very high quality waffles). Adding some fruit would make the breakfast more rounded. The check-in staff and other personnel were uniformly friendly (just as described in other reviews). And indeed the entire establishment was spotlessly clean. One additional suggestion: it would help to keep a supply of spare toiletry (toothbrush, paste and comb)- there are typically available at most hotels for guests who may have forgotten to pack these essentials. Overall- the stay and the amenities earn this Lodge a firm A-. Minimal improvements based on my comments will lead to a perfect A.

Clean place and priced well. The staff was not hospitable and ironically there are signs out front saying it is the hospitality training center for Hocking College. Not friendly or welcoming. It’s truly not a lodge of the traditional source, the included continental breakfast was subpar at best. However, we realize the cost reflected what we got. Just hoping this sets the expectation for people in the future.
