This Is What a Real Cabin Stay Feels Like

Private trails. Farm animals. A stocked fishing pond. Hot tubs under open sky.
Three completely different cabins — all unforgettable.

Most Cabin Rentals Give You Four Walls and a Key Code

We give you 50 private acres, a cast of animal neighbors with real personalities, a stocked fishing pond, trails that belong entirely to your group, and more indoor entertainment than you'd expect to find this deep in the hills.

Or a cozy retreat in Logan proper — closer to town, no-step entry, hot tub on the patio, and still just minutes from every major trail in Hocking Hills.

Three cabins. Each ready for whatever kind of stay you need.

🏕️ Bigfoot Bungalow — 50 Acres · 🏡 Hillside Haven — Logan 🏠 Harden Hideaway — Logan
Bigfoot Bungalow · 9016 Voris Rd, Logan, OH

The Bigfoot Bungalow Experience

Fifty private acres. A cabin stay that earns every review it gets. Four bedrooms, sleeps up to 16 — built for the whole group and then some.

Private Hot Tub

A 5-person Aspen Monarch Series hot tub, cleaned and inspected between every guest. Post-hike recovery. Morning soak with coffee. Winter snow falling around you while the water stays warm. No strangers. No schedule. Just yours.

Year-round · Private · No shared amenity

Firepit Nights

Evenings at Bigfoot Bungalow tend to slow down in the best way. There's something about a fire in the middle of 50 private acres — s'mores, stories, and a sky full of stars you forgot existed. Firewood and marshmallow sticks provided.

Check for seasonal burn restrictions before lighting.

Bigfoot Bungalow Only
Fifty Acres of Private Trails

No parking lot. No strangers on the path. Just your group and fifty acres of Hocking Hills land that belongs entirely to your stay. White-tailed deer are regular visitors along the trails — especially near dusk. Kids become nature detectives. Couples find a quiet that actually holds. Photographers find moments that don't exist anywhere else.

Anyone under 18 must be supervised on trails and near the pond.

Bigfoot Bungalow Only
A Private Fishing Pond

A stocked private pond, tucked into the property for Bigfoot Bungalow guests only. Cast a line. Watch the mist rise off the water at sunrise. Let a kid catch their first fish. Or just sit at the bank and let the stillness do its job.

Catch and release only. Guests bring their own fishing gear. Anyone under 18 must be supervised near the water.

The Horse Head Tree

Somewhere on the property, a tree grew into something that looks — unmistakably — like a horse. Nobody planned it. Nobody planted it that way. It's just there, deep in the woods, doing its thing. Part of the Bigfoot Bungalow lore guests always remember finding.

We'll point you in the right direction — half the fun is the walk.

Gas Fireplace

Bigfoot Bungalow has a gas fireplace in the living room, and it changes everything about an evening inside. Instant warmth. Instant atmosphere. Rainy afternoon, cold morning, or just because — flip it on and let the night settle in.

The living-room gas fireplace is a Bigfoot Bungalow signature — Hillside Haven does not have a fireplace.
40,000 Games. One System.

A retro gaming system loaded with over 40,000 classic games — every console era, every title you remember, and a thousand more you've never heard of. Rainy afternoon? Covered. Grandparents unexpectedly competitive? It happens more than you'd think. PS5 is here too. The retro system tends to win.

Full Baby & Family Gear

Pack-n-play, high chair, baby bouncer, baby bathtub, baby care essentials, and a fully fenced yard where kids and dogs can roam without worry. You pack the diapers. We'll handle the rest.

Baby and family gear is exclusive to Bigfoot Bungalow.
Level 2 EV Charger

Driving electric? Bigfoot Bungalow has a Grizzl-E Level 2 EV charger on the property. Arrive, plug in, and don't think about it again until checkout.

One of the only cabin rentals in Hocking Hills with on-site EV charging.

Stargazing at Bigfoot

The Hocking Hills region sits well outside Columbus light pollution, and 50 private acres means no nearby neighbors competing for the dark. On clear nights, the Milky Way is visible overhead. The hot tub is right there. The fire is still going. The stars are doing their thing.

John Glenn Astronomy Park is ~20 min away — bring your own telescope or just your eyes.

And Then There Are the Animals

Seven goats, four ducks, free-roaming chickens, a rabbit colony, year-round deer at the feeders, and a raccoon named Rumpke who shows up when she feels like it. Exclusively at Bigfoot Bungalow — and the most-mentioned feature in nearly every review.

Hillside Haven · 13450 Old McArthur Rd, Logan, OH

The Hillside Haven Experience

Newly opened 2026. Intimate, accessible, and positioned perfectly — minutes from every major trail and everything Logan has to offer. Two bedrooms, sleeps up to 6.

Private Hot Tub

The same private hot tub experience as Bigfoot Bungalow — 5 people, cleaned after every guest, ready every season. Post-hike. Morning coffee. Evening unwind. After a day at Old Man's Cave, this is exactly what you came for.

Year-round · Private · No shared amenity

The Gazebo

A covered outdoor space that extends your usable time outside regardless of weather. Morning coffee in the rain. Afternoon shade in the heat. Evening gathering with your group under cover. Most cabin rentals don't have this — Haven does.

Firepit Evenings

Your own private outdoor firepit with seating. S'mores. Stories. The quiet kind of evening that turns into a real memory. Haven's firepit is intimate and just right for a small group or couple winding down after a day in the hills.

PS5 Gaming

Nobody expects a PS5 in a Hocking Hills cabin. That's exactly the point. Rainy afternoon? Done. Kids need a break? Done. Couple wants to stay in? Covered. The cabin handles whatever the day brings.

Also: 86" smart TV in the living room + 55" TVs in both bedrooms with Roku.

No-Step Entry

Ground-level access throughout. No stairs to navigate at check-in, no steps to manage during your stay. Haven is the more accessible option in the JHC family — an important detail for guests with mobility considerations or anyone who just wants one less thing to think about.

Logan Location Advantage

Hillside Haven sits in Logan proper — everything is closer. Kroger and Walmart in 5 minutes. Every major Hocking Hills trail within 25 minutes. Wahkeena Nature Preserve is just 15 minutes away — considerably closer than from Bigfoot.

Closest JHC property to: Wahkeena · Lake Logan · Downtown Logan dining

Stargazing at Haven

Haven's location in Logan gives you clear night skies without the full remoteness of Bigfoot. Step out to the patio or firepit — the stars are still there, the hot tub is still running, and the quiet of a Hocking Hills night is still all yours.

Starlink WiFi + Clear Cell

Starlink high-speed WiFi with confirmed 150 Mbps download speeds — and stronger, clearer cell reception than Bigfoot Bungalow. Haven is the better connectivity option, whether you're streaming, working remotely, or just staying in touch.

WiFi password shared with confirmed guests only.

Harden Hideaway · Side-by-side with Hillside Haven · Logan, OH

The Harden Hideaway Experience

The newest cabin in the JHC family — a whole-house, three-bedroom retreat right next door to Hillside Haven, with the same in-town convenience and a personality all its own.

The Hot-Tub Deck

Harden's private hot tub sits on its own deck — your end-of-day ritual after the gorges. Same JHC standard as every cabin: cleaned after every guest, ready every season, and entirely yours for the stay.

Year-round · Private · No shared amenity

The Sunroom Workspace

A dedicated sunroom that doubles as the best remote-work spot in Logan — morning light, a proper place to set up, and the hills waiting the moment you close the laptop. Extend the trip; work the Friday from here.

Whole-House Privacy

Harden is a whole-house, three-bedroom upper unit — the entire place is yours. Room for the group to spread out, gather back up, and never bump into anyone who isn't on the trip.

In-Unit Laundry

The quiet hero of a longer stay. Muddy trail clothes, hot-tub towels, kid chaos — handled in-unit, so you can pack half as much and hike twice as hard.

Fire Pit Evenings

Gas and wood fire pits, ready for the end of the day. The flames go up, the phones go down, and the evening finds its own pace — the same Hocking Hills night sky overhead that guests drive hours for.

Check for seasonal burn restrictions before lighting.

Charcoal Grilling

Harden cooks over charcoal — the slow, smoky, real-fire kind of cabin dinner. Pick up local favorites in Logan five minutes away and make an evening of it on the deck.

Propane at Bigfoot · charcoal at Haven & Harden

Logan Location Advantage

Side-by-side with Hillside Haven means the same unbeatable in-town position — groceries in 5 minutes, every major trail within about 25, and downtown Logan dining minutes from the door.
