We absolutely loved our stay at the Black Bear Hideaway.
It was so clean and the quality of the amenities was excellent. We loved the location and enjoyed playing corn hole and air hockey. All of the furniture and the beds were super comfortable too.

We loved our stay at Black Bear Hideaway! Though this was our first visit, we felt as if we had been here before because the pictures online were just what we saw when we arrived. Everything was very clean and all we needed to do was to move our things in and choose our rooms. One thing that we were not expecting was the rather large front yard where we were able to play some six-person games of frisbee each evening while some of us sat on the front porch to enjoy the action. After frisbee we were able to enjoy the hot tub and a nice fire in the firepit to make s'mores. We prepared all of our meals at the cabin and the kitchen was equipped with everything that we needed. Cantwell Cliffs is very nearby, but our favorite hike was to Conkles Hollow. The rim trail is quite near the rim and is probably not a good hike for young children, but the gorge trail is beautiful we were there in July. It was very cool even though the day was hot and everything was lush and green. We called it the Enchanted Forest because it felt as if we had stepped into another world. Hocking Lodging Company was very quick to address any issues that we had and we would definitely plan to stay here again when we return to Hocking Hills.

Beds were comfortable and rooms got really dark which made sleeping in easy. We cannot wait to rent this place again when all the major trails open back up.

Great lodge and location
We spent the weekend at Black Bear Hide Away and had an awesome time. The location is great. Jobie was excellent, always answered any of my questions promptly. The cabin is large enough to handle a large group but it still has the cozy warm feeling. The black bears add a really nice touch. We will definitely return for another visit. We try to go in November to celebrate Thanksgiving with kids, grand kids, in laws and boyfriends. If you need a place for 12 people this is the place. I highly recommend it despite the next few comments. On a negative note, the house number needs to be more visible from the road, over all the cabin was clean but there were a few areas that need closer attention inside drawers, corner floors. There is a large crock pot but the knob is broken off so you cannot use it. Thank goodness I had brought mine so I had one. We arrived after a snow fall and the porch, even though one path was shoveled to the back door, was extremely icy and dangerous. The rock steps as well with or without the snow on them.

wedding venue - Black Bear Hideaway
We had a great time at the Black Bear Hideaway cabin! Our daughter got married in the front yard and it turned out beautifully. Also short trip to Old Man's Cave for pictures after the ceremony. Cabin was perfect for our group of 10...very clean and spacious. Nathan and Jobie were very helpful in providing information and referrals for all our needs. They pride themselves on providing superior service and accommodations. Thank You!

Love, love, love the Black Bear Hideaway!
Our son and his family stayed with us for a couple of days and our mini getaway was perfect! It is incredibly spacious and the property is so peaceful! You can sit out on the porch swing and watch the deer and listen to the birds. There was something for everyone to do! Loved the master bedroom and bathroom! The cabin is very clean and beautiful! We're looking forward to going back again next year.

Amazing Stay at Black Bear
There was a large group of us 13 total who recently spent a weekend away in Hocking Hills at the Black Bear Hideaway lodge. Of all of our trips to Hocking Hills, everyone said that this was the best lodge they've stayed in. From the personal touches in every room, to the very fast responses from Jobie, our experience and overall stay exceeded our expectations. We would love to come back and stay at Black Bear again and can't imagine booking with any other company.

Well Appointed and Clean!
Our whole family had a wonderful visit to Hocking Hills, and the Black Bear Hideaway was the main reason. From the grill and fire pit to the stock of children's books and kitchen items, we had everything our extended family needed to ensure an awesome vacation. When we return to the region, we'll definitely be repeat visitors!

Very Relaxing Great For Large Group
I booked my trip for the first time to Hocking Hills and did a lot of research before picking the right place. This cabin met all of my needs which were the ability to house a lot of people, a private location, and a hot tub. The cabin was located on a private road with other cabins within walking distance but the specific cabin we rented was private enough that the other cabins did not bother us. The cabin was equipped with everything we needed so all we had to do was bring the food. The hot tub was very nice and able to be controlled by us to meet the temperature we wanted. The cabin was overall very clean upon arrival and everything was in working order. I only have two complaints about the entire stay. The first would be the stains that we found on multiple comforters in the cabin. It looked as though running them through the washer would have fixed this but still it is always unpleasant to find any stains on bedding. My other complaint would be that the cabin was not entirely secluded from other people. I was hoping to be away from all other guests. Aside from these two issues I was very happy with our stay. I did not take away any stars from the rating since I dont think it is the fault of the owners for missing some stains and of me for not fully establishing whether it was a remote location or not. I would suggest staying here again to anyone interested. The price is very reasonable if you can get enough people to fill the cabin. We had 14 at first but some bailed out and we ended up with only 8 people going and had empty beds. We could have easily taken my car for the trip as opposed to my truck but I could see where a truck would come in handy if snow was in the forecast. I would also highly suggest having all necessary food and beverages before arriving since the closest store is about 30 minutes away. We also had to drive 30 minutes to reach Old Mans Cave in order to go hiking but again that was due to my lack of understanding where the cabin was located

Black Bear Hideaway-January
Black Bear Hideaway was exactly what we were looking for! The cabin was very CLEAN COZY. Felt like a home away from home! We had a smaller group of 10 people and there was plenty of room to have more! Very well done and will be looking to stay here another weekend soon when we can experience the gorgeous wrap around decks!
