Relaxing getaway
This cabin is a nice secluded getaway. The basement area was spacious and ended up being where my family spent most of our weekend. Overall we really enjoyed our stay. There are two things I would like to point out however. The fire pit is located out of the way on the side of the property, would’ve been nice if it was by the hot tub and outdoor seating area. Also the tv’s did not have ESPN, and the WiFi was pretty poor.

Good stay! Some cons
House was okay! Good size for 12 adults and 6 small kids. Pros and cons listed. I’m not sure if we’d stay here again if we had the choice due to multiple other housing options in the area. Pros: - Good size - Kitchen was stocked with dishes/cooking supplies - Basement and covered porch were good hang out areas - Secluded - Close to Hocking Hills State Park - Close to Walmart/restaurants Cons: - Electricity was wacky. Multiple lights didn’t work, especially outdoor lights - which was a pain after it got dark to not be able to see to play games/swim - Basement was FREEZING. Multiple family members had stuffy noses/colds by the time we left. Only one thermostat on the main level, set at 72, basement was still 62 at the warmest (our baby monitors gave us this info) - Pool is small, freezing as well, not much lounge area around the pool, lots of tree cover that blocked the warm afternoon sun - Outdoor TV did not work. We contacted the manager about this, but her tips to get it to work didn’t help - WiFi was okay, but service was terrible. Which was fine, but there was no way to call for help in case of emergencies. There was a landline present, but this didn’t work either. - Minimal fridge space. On the listing, an “extra refrigerator” is listed in the basement (along with the two mini fridges), but there was not one - Dead animal smell - was SO strong. Was better after a good rain, but then came right back. 3 of us have livestock, this smell was worse!

Great spot for a family trip
We spent 4 nights here with our family (7 adults, 5 kids) and it exceeded all of our expectations! The house was incredibly clean - likely the cleanest VRBO I have stayed at. The beds were comfy. There was a ton of space. The internet worked well overall considering how remote the house was. We spent all day and night at the pool and our kids loved it! We would definitely stay here again! 10/10 recommend.

Beautiful cabin, no WiFi
The cabin is beautiful with huge rooms, giant game room basement, pool and hot tub! The only issue was the WiFi would not connect and there is no cell service for several miles. The property manager did send someone to check it but it was never resolved. There was a land line which also stopped working halfway through our stay. Overall a clean, beautiful cabin and location but if you are traveling with children or absolutely needed connected this wouldn’t be for you.

Everything about the property was clean, comfortable, and great. The only issue was their verbiage in describing when the pool would be open. "mid-May" or if "unseasonably hot" did not come to fruition. Pool opens after Memorial Day.

Family Christmas
Our family made a last minute decision to take a short vacation down to the Hocking Hills area for Christmas 2021 as we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves a couple years prior during Thanksgiving 2019. We were extremely fortunate and thankful to have found the Sterling Lodge. The property was absolutely amazing and the pictures online don't capture all of the comfort and richness this cabin provides. We were pleasantly surprised that a Christmas tree was set up and lit to welcome us when we arrived. The cabin was big enough to spread out, yet cozy and comfortable in every space. The beds were some of the most comfortable beds that we have ever slept in in our many years of traveling. The pool table, theater seating large screen TV area, and hot tub made this stay enjoyable for the entire family. We were thoroughly impressed with the communications received from Jenel Bentley, our contact from Buffalo Cabins and Lodges. Jenel responded within minutes of our emails on the few questions that we had getting acclimated to the cabin and surrounding area. We will definitely be returning to the Hocking Hills area in the near future and will be looking to stay at the Sterling Lodge again.

The lodge was amazing. Clean and well stocked. The trash dumpster was over full when we arrived and not emptied during our stay. Menu on the hot tub said it was in need of being refreshed when we arrived. Location of the lodge is very secluded and quite. Love all the rocking chairs on the front porch. The pool was a lot of fun with all of our little ones. We had a photographer come for family photos during our stay. Great setting can’t wait to see how they turn out.

Property is nice, Management company not so much
Had some issues with mice and bees, called the management company and let them know. No one ever came out to investigate. I contacted after stay and they said that the pest company was trying to squeeze in a trip to the property but never made it while we there there. Said that they would not do anything to help compensate for the inconvenience of not being able to use the outside area because of bees. Also blamed the poor WiFi and Direct TV on the weather that came through mid-week even though it was very poor quality the whole time we were there. Overall nice place, if you book hopefully you have a perfect trip because management company could care less about your stay once they have you money.
