Wonderful time for 4 family units (12 people total and 3 dogs). The house was clean and comfortatble with plenty of space. We had a blast playing games, watching movies, sitting around the fire ring and of course playing in the pool. The house has plenty of space for dining together; as well as, splitting off for late game nights and tv watching without disturbing those wanting to go to bed early. Constructive criticism: the gates around the fenced in area needs repaired and closed off by the stairs to the deck to be completely secure for dogs, a larger fridge or second fridge, more than 4 dishwasher tabs (we did requst more, but they were not received), and a keyless entry...either way though, we still hope to return!

Love the location and all the available space inside this chalet. Lots of extras! Everyone had an awesome trip even with rainy weather!!! Hot tub appears to have a slow leak but wasn’t an issue and was nice and warm.

The Chalet was the perfect space for bringing together three generations of family from three areas of Ohio for Easter weekend. From greenspace for wiffleball games and Easter egg hunts to the pool table, hot tub, and private pond with canoes, we made plenty of memories and hope to make it a yearly tradition. The clean, spacious, and well-stocked home comfortably accommodated us -- Thank you!

The overall stay was decent. Was not too pleased with hot tub being moved to a no privacy area(photo online showed different location) and not being properly cleaned, refilled, and sanitized. we found clothes from prior guest on steps to hot tub, so we knew it was not touched prior to our stay. The Hiker Cafe menu is out of date and out of items listed for sale. Cable tv in Nelsonville leaves something to be desired. The pool table had a big gash in the felt , and needed replaced to play a proper game of pool. Was not same pool table in the online listing. Overall like we said, the stay was decent for the discounted price we paid. Would not stay here at full price unless amenities were up to date and impeccable. To us, that is what makes the stay, the game room and hot tub. We own businesses and when we come down to stay we basically stay in and do not leave much. This is the second straight stay at a bigger lodge type setting where the pool table and the hot tub were in poor condition , and our stay and its enjoyment were directly affected.Check out time of 10 am is too early as well.We have been coming to the Hocking Hills for over 20 years and have NEVER been asked to check out before 11, and we have always been accommodated if we were running behind. Maybe the time of year played a role in how the place was presented, but not sure. Duane and Angela Robbins

Totally enjoyed the hot tub and sauna. House was clean. Bedrooms were comfortable. Kitchen was great for cooking. House was warm even on the nights with single digit temps. Will definitely rent again from First Choice. My only complaint is check in/out is at the store which adds a little time/effort instead of being able to just arrive at the rental.

We had a great stay. Spacious cabin with all you need and a fun property for the kids to explore!

I was a bit worried by some recent negative reviews, but I shouldn't have worried! The hot tub and sauna both worked perfectly. (There's detailed information in the printed house guide if the hot tub is not working.) This cabin is large and sprawling and exactly as advertised. There are trails to walk on and a pond / lake to fish or canoe in. It's not a perfect place, but these are really minor quibbles: - The ice maker doesn't work - The fireplace isn't operational, at least this year - Some of the beds are up a very narrow spiral staircase, and there's no bathroom up there - The property is about a 20-25 minute drive to the major Hocking Hills attractions, so it does feel somewhat remote. It's about a 10 minute drive to the small town of Nelsonville. (Check out the historic downtown block, with unique stores such as New Leaf Marketplace and Mountain Mystic Gift Shop.) But none of these detracted from our stay. And I think the price is right for a place that holds so many people. The property manager was very responsive, the hot tub is excellent, and the place was very very clean.

We enjoyed ourselves very much. The House and property is beautiful, but the fireplace wasn't able to be used; the sauna didn't work and hot tub didn't work. It did not ruin our time but we were disappointed. We called for maintenance and no one ever called back or came out. And no one told us at check in that these things were an issue.
