What people are saying

Cherry Ridge Retreat is one of the most wonderful places I've ever been. Very, very clean. Bed comfortable. Plenty of thick towels. Extremely well-appointed kitchen. Filtered water even! Hot tub was amazing! We will be back for sure! Well, we came back. 😃 This time we stayed at the Boathouse. It was very private and quiet, lovely surroundings. Everything was clean and well appointed. Lots of space. We especially enjoyed the hot tub.

We just stayed at the Observatory for our 20th anniversary. The staff was very friendly, and communication was top notch. The site itself was perfect! The landscaping was beautiful. The pool, hot tub and plunge pool were clean and very enjoyable (I was only brave enough to do the plunge pool once!). All of the furniture was comfortable and relaxing to sit in. We made sure to do it all while there, and never ran out of ways to relax and enjoy the space. The bed was probably the most comfortable we’ve experienced at a cabin lately, and we slept very well (I’m sure the swimming helped!). Everything was just as advertised, and we were very happy with the entire experience. Would definitely return.

The observatory is worth more stars than I can rate!😉 Everything was perfection. From the cold plunge (1st time 👍) to the night time dip, to the clear skies, that took my breath away, this visit was something I'll never forget. Staff is ALWAYS so friendly & personable...this alone is very much appreciated!

Cherry Ridge Retreat is a great getaway. The luxury cabins offer privacy and serenity. The Observatory has a flowing, open floor plan and opens onto a meadow where cows may stop by to visit. The pool is great for floating away your concerns. The covered reading area gives a respite from activity. Start a fire as you watch the sun set.

Everything about Cherry Ridge is high quality! I have never been disappointed with the condition of the cabin, the staff, or the functionality of the amenities. Since my last visit, the Observatory got a new hot tub, gas grill, and [smaller] family room TV. The cabin was meticulously cleaned as well as the cold plunge. Since Mother Nature didn't cooperate, we did not walk the wooded trails this time, but given the size of the property, we still have trails to explore. I don't even leave the property anymore when vacationing here so I do get away from it all! My only disappointment was the fish food was temporarily unavailable due to gazebo maintenance!

Excellent experience! Cabin was very clean & all the amenities were in good working order. We absolutely loved the outdoor fireplace & hot tub. It will definitely be a place we will return to again.

We fell in love with Cherry Ridge 10 years ago on our first stay and were married at the Boat House a couple years later. Everything is onsite. Excellent hiking trails, fishing, sauna, hot tub and fire pit. We plan to visit this Fall!

Excellent location to stay at in Hocking Hills! The cabin was astonishing, very well furnished and well prepared for our arrival! Private and secluded, not loud or noisy during our stay ever! Very peaceful for couples or family to come and enjoy your time together in Hocking Hills!
