Description

Welcome to paradise - a true escape nestled on 5 private wooded acres in the heart of Ohio's Hocking Hills region. This charming 1-bedroom, 1-bath log cabin offers the perfect blend of rustic character and modern comfort, complete with an established short-term rental history already in place. Inside, you'll find soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed log beams, and a stunning floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with a propane insert installed in 2020, the perfect centerpiece for cozy weekends away. The open-concept living and kitchen area feels warm and inviting, featuring a beautifully updated kitchen completed in 2025 with white shaker cabinetry and a functional galley-style layout designed for easy living and entertaining. The bedroom continues the classic lodge aesthetic with full log walls and a peaceful cabin feel throughout. Step outside to enjoy the spacious wraparound deck, replaced and extended in 2019, complete with Adirondack chairs, a private hot tub, and serene wooded views in every direction. A gravel fire pit area creates the ideal setting for evenings under the stars. Recent updates include fresh exterior paint in 2026, hot water heater replacement in 2022, updated decking in 2019, and a fully refreshed kitchen in 2025, offering peace of mind for both owners and guests alike. Whether you are searching for a private weekend retreat, a full-time residence, or a turnkey investment opportunity, this property delivers. Conveniently located less than 20 minutes from downtown Logan, Hocking Hills State Park, Lake Hope State Park, Zaleski State Forest, and Wayne National Forest, you'll be surrounded by some of Ohio's most desirable outdoor recreation and natural beauty.
