Two real king bedrooms, one on each floor, and a murphy bed in the lower level for however the group sorts itself out. The main floor is open, so whoever's cooking is still part of the conversation. The lower level has its own TV, arcade machine, and game table, right off the covered hot tub.

Sherwood sits at the bottom of a small hill. Most vehicles handle it fine under normal conditions, but in winter, when ice and snow are a factor, we strongly recommend 4WD or AWD.



About the WiFi



We run Starlink. It handles streaming, music, and browsing well. Video calls can drop now and then, especially on overcast days. Remote work is doable with the occasional hiccup. We'd rather tell you now than have you find out mid-Zoom.



The Setting



We're in the woods and keep up with regular pest control. A ladybug or a curious spider is just Hocking Hills being Hocking Hills.



House Rules



• No parties or events, including bachelor/bachelorette groups. And no glitter. It genuinely never goes away.

• Registered guests only on the property

• No smoking or vaping anywhere on the property, indoors or out

• No fireworks, ATVs, hunting, or weapons on the property

• No commercial photography or video without written approval

• Hot tub: striped towels only, keep the cover on between soaks, and please don't set the temperature below 100 degrees. It takes several hours to recover.

• Septic system: flush toilet paper only, no garbage disposal at the sink



All guests sign a short renter's agreement after booking. We'll send it over. It's quick, painless, and helps us take good care of you and everyone else on the property.
