We've only been here 3 nights and I'm already calling your cottage our home. If I could build my own special getaway - this would be it! I wouldn't change a thing. We'll be back in the winter, I'll bet it's amazing!

My fiancé and I planned this trip to check out Cherry Ridge and 6 other possibilities for our honeymoon next fall. This will be our 2nd time around and we've decided to stay close to home (Pittsburgh) so that it will be practical to return every anniversary. Like every couple, we want it to be perfect. Well ...this is our 4'th night at CRR. We are sitting on our porch enjoying both a good bottle of wine and the most magnificent view. I have a couple of steaks cooking on a grill that is twice as nice as mine and I'm chuckling as I write this - The "other possibilities" weren't even close. See you next Fall.

Your web site is great. Every question we had or should have had was answered in your Important Information section. We actually didn't feel like we were taking a leap of faith when we booked. And now that we are here it is actually better than promised by a long shot. Can't wait to return.

My husband and I are retired and spend a great deal of time traveling. We try to stay at nice places and when we mentioned to friends that we were thinking of Hocking Hills for Thanksgiving we were told to be very careful in choosing a place to stay. Our visit to Cherry Ridge has been nothing short of our best lodging experience ever. We are amazed that something this nice is available to rent. Expect to see us regularly.

I hope everyone has a chance to read this and should add - that if it weren't for your frequent guest registry I would probably keep Cherry Ridge Retreat our little secret. We booked a 3 night stay at another establishment whose web site boasted of a rustic cabin on 5 private acres and I quote "the ultimate in privacy and seclusion". We arrived to find our cabin on a, busier than we would have liked, township road, with the 5 private acres behind us and the owners home right next door. And, what looked like and was described as rustic, turned out to be drab and dated. We checked out after 1 night and here we are. You were actually our first pick but slightly more expensive. I guess you get what you pay for and with Cherry Ridge you get a lot more. Thank you for this very special place.

Dear Sue - Thank you for all your TLC and as promised, now that I understand how your registry works, I am happy to share our experience. We love coming to Hocking Hills but just have never been able to find the perfect place to stay. Each trip has been preceded by hours at the computer looking at web site after web site. Unfortunately for us we sort of feel as though we have been foiled in one way or another at each of our visits. This year we tried something different - we independently researched where to stay and each of us came up with a top 5 list. Guess whose name was at the top of each list? Thank you for all of the countless hours I won't have to spend in the future looking for the perfect place.

I feel compelled to pay forward some helpful advice to other discriminating travelers. My wife and I rely to a degree on guest comments when trying to decide where to stay. And for what it's worth, everything you have read, seen or heard about Cherry Ridge Retreat is only better once you get here. Our cottage is a small, wonderfully furnished home with tasteful attention to every detail. This is the gold standard by which everything else should be measured against. Congratulations and thank you for this gift.

Thank you for taking the time to read what some of our guests have to say about Cherry Ridge Retreat. A few of them have mentioned our Frequent Guest Registry and we would like to explain what it is and how it works.

Many of our guests, while very satisfied with their experience at Cherry Ridge Retreat, have expressed reluctance to tell their friends about us. Their concern is that it will become increasingly difficult to find openings, so their attitude has been "lets keep this our little secret". To encourage referrals and quell our guests' fears, we have created the Frequent Guest Registry.

Visitors to Cherry Ridge Retreat that return at least once per year are eligible to become Registry members following their second visit. Throughout the year we reserve cottages to ensure our Registry participants occupancy. We constantly monitor our ability to accommodate our favorite guests and adjust availability accordingly. Registry members also receive advance notice of any specials such as theme weekends, holiday packages, special discounts, etc. Our frequent guests, that visit at least once per year, are also entitled to a free stay* after five paid visits. 

*The credit for your 6'th visit is equal to the sum of your first 5 visits (not including taxes or miscellaneous purchases) divided by 5.  Taxes for your 6'th visit are computed based on the lodging rate for your accommodation and may not be paid with your credit.  Any unused credit following your 6'th visit does not carry forward.
