I am an OU alumna and sad to write this review. I have chosen the OU Inn for years -- not because…read moreit's the most modern option (it isn't), not because it's the closest to campus (it isn't), and not because the rooms justify the price gouging that comes with Mom's Weekend (they don't). I chose it for the nostalgia... and the sense that as a member of the OU community, this was my hotel. I won't be making that mistake again. Here's what happened: I booked a room for Mom's Weekend 2026 a full year in advance -- because that's what you have to do when a hotel decides that one weekend a year justifies a $500/night rate. Fine. Supply and demand - I get it. What I didn't get was any reminder. Every hotel I've stayed at across the world -- and I travel frequently -- sends a "We're looking forward to seeing you this week" days before check-in. The OU Inn, apparently, has not discovered this technology. Instead, I received a reminder email at 7:10 PM -- after check-in had already passed. Not so useful. When I called and acknowledged my own mistake -- I genuinely did forget -- I wasn't asking for a free pass. I asked only to cancel the second night, understanding I'd eat the cost of the first. The response? A rigid recitation of the 48-hour cancellation policy by River at the front desk. On a sold-out Mom's Weekend. When hotels in Athens are turning people away for months before. The idea that they couldn't rebook that room -- on the busiest weekend of the year -- is either dishonest or incompetent. And then the cherry on top: I received a cancellation confirmation email Saturday morning, which gave me genuine hope that someone with a pulse had reviewed my situation and done the right thing. Nope. Turns out the system auto-cancelled when I missed check-in -- and then staff **manually re-entered my reservation knowing full well I wasn't coming.** That is not a clerical error. That is a choice. I have kids at OU now. I will be making the trip from California multiple times a year for the next three years. I was fully prepared to be a reliable, repeat customer -- someone who picks the OU Inn on principle, even when better options exist. That's what loyalty looks like. What I experienced in return was rigidity, indifference, and staff that were, frankly, rude about it. To management: you had every tool to make this right. A waitlist. A goodwill gesture. Basic human flexibility on the most in-demand weekend of your year. You chose none of them. For $450 (refund for one night), you've lost a customer who was already sold on you.

On a whim, my husband suggested we book a sauna pod for a Saturday in January while staying in…read moreHocking Hills. To my surprise, there was still an available time slot so I quickly booked it and waited with anticipation for our time to arrive. We checked in at the front office where we were greeted politely and were given instructions on how to get to, enter and use our sauna pod. The Pods are located right across the street from the Chalets so I was worried at first about having adequate privacy but once we entered the Pod I felt I was transported to the middle of the woods. My favorite part of the Pod was that it was Bluetooth equipped so I was able to play some folk music over the speakers to enhance my woodsy experience. Towels and bottled water are also provided for you in the Pod. We booked an hour, which I thought might be too long in the heat for me personally but after taking the recommended breaks, it didn't feel long enough. We emerged from our Pod soaking in sweat but refreshed and with every endorphin in our bodies firing. It was a fabulous experience!

Having had a fabulous experience with the Chalets in Hocking Hills in the past, I decided to give…read morethem another go to celebrate my birthday for a few days in February. I booked online and the process was really easy. I got reminder emails, a welcome message when it was time to check-in and everything was contactless when I arrived. While I spent a good amount of time outside of my cabin (Laurelwood), I also spent a good amount of time there. It snowed a lot so I soaked up the giant window views, enjoyed the hot tub, and lots of relaxing. My only big complaint was that of the cabin itself. I couldn't figure out what it was but the entire building was just loud. Like so loud, I couldn't sleep. Had I known, I would have brought ear plugs and trust me, I have them thanks to living in the city. Despite not being able to sleep my two nights there, and constant loud ass humming all throughout, the rest of the experience was solid. The space was comfy, included all the necessities, and they even plowed the driveway after the snow. I love coming here and the Chalets are a great choice. I just might ask about the sound issues on my next visit.

High Rock Hideaways is centrally located in the Hocking Hills area of Ohio and is super close to a lot of Hocking Hills State Park's best attractions! We ended up staying in the Yesteryear Cabin on the property and it was the perfect size for two people. (See photos below) My favorite part about this cabin was the wraparound porch and the hot tub in the back. Though we didn't get to use the porch as much as I would have liked because it was super cold outside, the view was still great through the sliding glass doors. I was a bit nervous about bed bugs from reading the past reviews, but we checked the bed before sleeping on it the first night and it was squeaky clean! No problems there. One of the best parts of this cabin was actually the grounds that it is located on! It's easy to overlook the High Rock trails for the ones in the state park, but this is a HUGE mistake. We almost skipped out on them and I'm so glad we didn't! The trails snake over the few acres of land that is the High Rock property and are basically deserted except for a few deer running around. It felt like we were in the middle of nowhere with no one around for miles. It was awesome! I cannot wait to visit here again and try out the other cabins in the future. If you're looking for a quick weekend getaway in Hocking Hills, this is the spot! Pro-Tip: No matter how tired you are from hiking the Hocking Hills State Park trails, don't neglect to try the trails on the High Rock property! You won't regret it!

In addition to the State Park, this private property offers their own hikes. Go check them out if you have time.

I…read moremade the reservation about a month ahead of time and the lady I spoke with that day was very pleasant. We were only staying one night, but she called me right back to let me know she'd accidentally booked two nights but that she would take care of it and to disregard the confirmation I had gotten. We checked in yesterday and I received a text prior to check in confirming my stay of two days. When I checked in later in the day, I explained the situation to the man working and he was able to resolve it easily. The manager on duty was very active and involved in the management of the routine duties around the hotel as well as managing the event. I didn't catch her name, but I was very impressed. The staff was warm and welcoming well beyond what one might generally encounter. I can only hope and assume it's because they have a great leadership and support structure. It really stood out. The hotel itself was CLEAN. Very few to almost no signs of wear and tear or poor cleaning practices. Our room was spotless. The only thing I could detract from it is that the bed is very firm. We both woke up a little worse for wear. The back area is great, very peaceful considering it's located right off the highway. It's walking distance to a few bars and restaurants. 9.9/10. I'd absolutely stay there again if not for the bed. Oh, and also they have a little cooler by the front door where they sell cheap wine at essentially the price you'd pay at Walmart. And they have free cookies.
