Whether you're building an Airbnb portfolio, searching for a high-performing short-term rental near Hocking Hills, or dreaming of a personal retreat with income potential, this is the kind of property that truly stands out—and performs. Set on just over 5 peaceful acres, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home or cabin retreat offers rolling countryside views that stop you in your tracks. Every season brings a new backdrop, making it exactly the kind of setting guests look for when booking a memorable getaway—quiet, scenic, and completely unplugged. Inside, the home feels warm, cozy, and welcoming with newer LVP flooring added within the last year. The layout works beautifully for both full-time living and short-term rentals, with comfortable shared spaces and private bedrooms. The unfinished basement is a major value-add, ready to be finished into additional sleeping space, a game room, or a guest hangout area that can significantly increase nightly rates and occupancy. Major updates were completed in 2022, including a new furnace and heat pump, hot water tank, and well pump, offering peace of mind and low-maintenance ownership. Outside is where the rental potential really shines. The property offers privacy, space, and that true ''escape to the hills'' feel travelers love. A barn provides storage or creative expansion options, and the 36x20 concrete pad is ideal for adding high-demand amenities like a hot tub, fire pit area, or outdoor entertaining space—features that drive five-star reviews and repeat bookings. Located just 12 miles from Hocking Hills State Park and Old Man's Cave, this property puts you close to one of Ohio's most sought-after vacation destinations while still coming home to quiet, privacy, and sweeping views.
