A great relaxing escape
We enjoyed every second at the Dodge Cabin. We relaxed and took it easy and had nothing to worry about. The cabin is beautiful, clean and has everything you could want--from soft warm blankets to frying pans and a coffee maker. The fireplace is big and beautiful and we took full advantage of it every night. It was especially nice to be able to bring our dogs. They enjoyed the trip as much as we did! We can't wait to come back when it is warmer to explore the cave and the rest of the property.

Amazing place to stay
We booked our cabin because we love the old rustic style rentals. This place was awesome. I t was a perfect combination of rustic and modern conveniences. Loved the location, loved the kitchen where we could cook, loved the fireplace, loved the loft, especially on a rainy night! . If you are looking for a place to stay, the price is reasonable, the amenities are great and so is the location. I would go back again if I was in the area.

Beautiful cabin getaway
Our stay was great at the log cabin. It is in amazing condition and perhaps nicer than even the photos online. We were able to cook dinner and enjoy a constant fire in the fireplace. George even ordered us cable when there was a football game on a special channel we wanted to watch. It was a great experience and perfect to get away. We plan on returning soon.

Wonderful stay!
We stayed for only two nights... we'll book more next time. It was such a wonderful respite, made even better by the excellent amenities and fabulous property. Can't wait to go back!

WOW! Great Place, Great Location, Great Time...
Hi George, I can't tell you in words how much we enjoyed our time at your cabin. It was more than we expected and your comparison to a 5 star hotel is truly an honest comparison. I travel for business and the quality your cabin exceeds most hotel rooms I've stayed in! Of the many great aspects of your property, the cleanliness was most impressive. Not only are we long term customers now, we will "selectively" promote your cabins to friends and family. It was great to meet you, albeit brief, and to learn about the area. We look forward to booking another trip soon.

Relaxing Get Away
This cabin is the perfect place to get away, relax and enjoy nature. The fire place makes this cabin real homey. Plan to stay again. Bob and Shirley

"The Log Cabin"
Stayed two nights, great cabin. Enjoyed the sunsets/sunrises and fire pitt. Star gazing was perfect. Local area antique shops were enjoyable. Every detail was there at the cabin to make our stay perfect. We hope to be back.

Relaxing Rural Respite
We had a short but rejuvenating stay at the beautifully restored log cabin. In two days, we enjoyed the deck, grilled out, made amazing meals in the well-stocked kitchen, hiked to the cave and did a bit of spelunking, hiked the Buzzardroost Trail (thanks for the recommendation George!), and had a fire outside the barn under the Supermoon! Our dog was in heaven romping around the property! Couldn't have asked for a better weekend. Thanks for sharing this lovely place with us.

What a Pleasant Surprise
When my staff said they found a place in Adams County for us to have a get-a-way and evaluation weekend for under $400 per night I was prepared for an older, outdated, no real eminities type of cabin. Boy, was I wrong. The place for first class, clean, very cozy, and well equipped with a great kitchen, dining and family area, as well as very nice and comfortable bedrooms. While we slept four adult couples, the facility is really best for two couples and children. It was beautifully located in the middle of the woods. We loved it and will return when possible.

Weekend Getaway
This was our fourth stay at the Dodge Cabin. The cabin is a perfect place to step away from your busy schedule and just relax. We spent hours both nights sitting on the deck listening to nature. During the day, we walked around the property and visited the local Amish shops. We are looking forward to our next visit.

Great Place to Stay
We stayed for two nights in the Dodge cabin. It was very nice accommodations. We enjoyed walking the grounds to the ponds and exploring the onsite cave (albeit a bit muddy). The sky was very clear giving a beautiful view of the stars. The view from the back deck to the pond was wonderful, and the deck was a great place to sit and enjoy our morning coffee. The cabin was one of the nicest we have ever stayed in.

Great Vacation
We recently stayed at the Roundhouse for a short get away and to visit family in the area. The house was well equipt and very inviting. We were able to have a nice conversation with Geoge and get some insider tips on the cave along with a short history lesson about the property. We truly loved our stay and we will definitely be booking again in the future!!!! We highly recommend this house!!

Great Sanctuary!
For those looking for a quiet get-a-way, the log cabin at Cave Hill Cabins is ideal. We love the rustic yet modern cabin, the wood-burning fireplace and large front porch, the overall backwoods feel of the place. We always schedule our next visit before we leave, and so look forward to our return from the busy pace of life.

Highly Recommend
We LOVED our stay at the Round House - this was my second time there and I hope there will be many more! George and Patti have made a beautiful and comfortable place. The scenery is amazing, the house is so beautiful and stocked with everything you could possibly need. I tell all my friends about Cave Hill Cabins :)

Dodge Cabin
We had a wonderful time staying at the Dodge cabin. It was so peaceful! Everything was wonderful!! My husband loved fishing at the pond. Caught several nice size bass. If you are looking for somewhere to get away and relax, this is the place to be. We are excited about going back in Nov. to stay at the Log cabin for our anniversary!

Two nights in the Round House
We are delighted we found such a beautiful, quiet, escape pod from our everday. Clean, nicely furnished, aesthetically pleasing, and with the barn, woods, cave, and pond on the premises this was a perfect way to decompress. Only wish it could have lasted longer.

The Perfect Relaxing Getaway
My husband and I stayed at the Dodge Cabin in April '15 and it was a perfect getaway for us. We are from Cincinnati, so it is an easy drive and the property was so beautiful and peaceful. The cabin was very clean and George and Patty supplied it with everything we could need. We had no complaints at all and are already deciding when to go again!

Spring Break Retreat
Four of us enjoyed the Roundhouse Lodge immensely. It was clean, quiet, remote, and had all the amenities anyone could need. We were pleasantly surprised to have a complimentary coffee service set up, wine glasses were out (along with a bottle of wine), and the table was set . The bathrooms were very clean and had extra towels available, as well as a few toiletries. The beds were comfortable and the linens were of a good quality. The cabin was spacious enough for all of us to have our own bed and we could nap without disturbing each other or feel like we were crowding each other. The kitchen was huge! There were several places to have a meal or snack inside or outside. We also enjoyed conversations on the comfortable furniture and having a fire each night in the wood burning stove. Although there were movies and a flat screen TV, we never turned it on, but enjoyed the camaraderie that only women can share! We saw some wildlife and hiked around the woods/property and found the lodge to be easily accessible once we traveled the roads a few times. The location was great, too, as we were able to discover many places (shops, restaurants and Amish) in the adjoining towns. Overall, we would give the lodge a 5 star experience and definitely will re-rent in the future.

Wonderful weekend getaway!
The cabin was perfect for our weekend! My husband, myself, and our kids thoroughly enjoyed our stay. From the well-stocked kitchen, to the comfortable beds, to the charming fireplace and cozy atmosphere, it was the perfect setting for a weekend getaway.

Wonderful weekend away
Thank you so much for a wonderful weekend away. It was so nice to be out of the people and constant noise in Columbus. It snowed just a bit yesterday evening/night and everything looks so beautiful covered in snow. Thank you so much!

Second stay
We just had to come back for a second stay. We absolutely love it here. We have our third stay scheduled and are talking about a fourth. (We would like to stay for each season at least once.) Once again we had perfect weather. Cold at night which was great for a relaxing time with a crackling fire. Warn enough during the day to grill. Already looking forward to our next stay.

Our new favorite spot
"We absolutely fell in love with your cabin and the feeling and experience it gave us. Along with the woods surrounding it. You all have done an incredible job capturing the look and feel of an original cabin, yet keeping all the necessities and amenities we are accustom to. I just can't say enough good things about this lovely place. We just loved it!! A few added touches that I loved were the sconces, the little lamp in the bathroom, all the little candles and candle holders throughout the first floor. They all brought an added romantic side to the cabin."

What a wonderful getaway!
The lodge is spacious, beautiful, peaceful, and just so relaxing. We scheduled a a few days away to rest and just breathe before the holiday season chaos begins. My dogs were very comfortable, the location was ideal and as hosts, you were so very welcoming! THANK YOU! p.s..Thank you for being so accommodating with the cable upgrade so we could enjoy some ESPN while we were there!

Wonderful Getaway Weekend
After a very hectic week, it was so nice to be able to relax together at the Dodge Cabin with our two furry kids. The dogs loved running in the fields - you could almost see smiles on their faces. Thank you for being dog-friendly!!! And the cabin had just about everything we needed. Loved, loved the beautiful stone fireplace! It was a beautiful, clean place and I would love to visit again. Thanks for sharing your home with us!!!

First Guests at Log Cabin!
We feel honored to be the first guests to stay in the Log Cabin. What a beautiful restoration! We love the stillness and peace of the setting, tucked away in its own little sanctuary. We spent many hours enjoying the wood-burning fireplace; and we loved having coffee on the porch and watching the birds. It was great to see George again (we were here in April but stayed in the other cabin [Dodge Cabin] -- also very nice). We can't wait to return -- hoping for a winter retreat in just a few short months. Thanks for all you have done to provide such a wonderful place to rejuvenate.

What a great stay. We arrived Thursday and stayed til Sunday. The lodge was wonderful, tucked back into the woods. What a unique place. It was very quiet and comfortable. We ventured out Saturday to the Herb Festival and had a great time.

Wonderful time
This was the perfect location to turn off our phones and computers and unwind. Ben and Bella (my 2 dogs) enjoyed many hiking adventures (including the cave) and my wife Katie really enjoyed the scenery as well. We spent the week flying through books and having great conversation....what a perfect vacation. We would certainly come back again without hesitation. Thanks for sharing your cabin with us.

Good reason to return to Cave Hill Lodge!
Waking up in the forest each morning, was delightful! Windows all 'round gave us an outdoor experience, but with the inside comfort of a classy lodge environment. All we required for a week's stay was thoughtfully provided. Thank you Mr. & Mrs. Carr!

Tremendous Hospitality
The owners have thought of everything to make your stay relaxing and memorable. Maps of the land and trails wer provided so it was easy to explore the land, cave, and ponds. Firewood, lighters, and newspaper were conveniently placed right next to the fire pit. They even had marshmallow sticks for toasting provided inside of the cabin. I cannot think of anything that was not available during our stay. It is a wonderful place to stay. We will be back!

Immersed in nature with comforts of home
We absolutely loved our long weekend away at Cave Hill Cabin. The cabin itself is just as beautiful as it looks in the photos—perhaps even more so when you add the smell of pine from the gorgeous interior and the crisp breeze from the woods just outside. The acres and acres of nature that Mr. and Mrs. Carr so generously allow guests to explore are indescribable in their beauty. Our toddler and two pups roamed and played until they could barely keep their eyes open. We cannot wait to return again soon.

SO SERENE!!
We would like to thank George and his wife for their kindness and hospitality and for sharing their home with us. We would also like to thank them for allowing us to bring our dog Winston with us since he is such a big part of our family. Our stay at the lodge was so much more than we expected. It was beautifully decorated, very clean and furnished with everything we needed. We enjoyed walking the trails and exploring the cave and just sitting by the old barn and taking in the view. Peaceful,tranquil,calm = SO SERENE!! This mini-vacation is what we needed. My husband and I left so relaxed and rested. We will definitely be returning to the lodge. Thanks again!!

A little slice of heaven!
Cave Hill cabin is an absolutely beautiful cabin in a secluded location with the added bonus of being easy to get to. We had a wonderful and relaxing stay. My girlfriends and I do a weekend trip twice a year and this is definitely one of the nicest places we've stayed. The owners are very nice and were quick to respond to all our emails. I look forward to, and am already planning on, staying here again.

Country Oasis!
We absolutely loved staying in the cabin at Cave Hill! We walked with our dogs around the large fields every morning. We enjoyed exploring the cave and watching the storms come in across the open skies. The cabin felt like home to us and we hope to come back soon. George was such a kind and helpful host! We couldn't have asked for a more relaxing time away to celebrate our 7th wedding anniversary!

Beautiful wooded setting
Enjoyed 4 night stay at Cave Hill in May 2014. The site is very remote but GPS and the directions provided got us there with no problems. The road in is rough and we were happy for our Subaru. The setting is beautiful. Followed directions to the cave and long range views. This is a good location to explore Amish country, covered bridges, antique stores and Civil War sites. If you want a fabulous dinner out you are not far from the Murphin Ridge Inn which we found to be a wonderful treat.
