Pines Lodge at Sand Run Lake in WNF, Hocking Hills

A unique feature about the Pines Lodge is that it is located in an ATV Friendly area. The Monday Creek Trail System is located 1-mile away from the cabin. Wayne National Forest offers over 75+ miles of designated trails for off-road riders. Guests can ride directly from the cabin to the nearest trailhead. If you have your own off-road vehicle, bring it to experience Wayne National Forest.
You will follow forest covered, back roads until you reach our Pines Lodge that is nestled next to Sand Run Lake, 18,000+ acres of Wayne National Forest, and is situated on our 7-acre property with a private pond and a water wheel. Upon arrival, you are welcomed to beautiful views of the forest that will have you coming back for more. Being avid outdoor lovers, we hope you and your guests get to spend some quality time outdoors! Sip your morning coffee off the large deck overlooking the forest and listening to the nearby nature.

Spend the afternoon enjoying flamed grilled food from the grill. Partake in some catch and release fishing in the private pond on the lower portion of the property or at Sand Run Lake. Make sure you stroll over to Sand Run Lake Picnic area and wander into the forest filled with pine trees. If you have a hammock, we recommend bringing it so you can fall asleep amongst the trees.

There is a newly renovated gravel firepit with wooden benches and Adirondack chairs for you and your guests to create memories of a lifetime around the campfire. You can end your night by relaxing and unwinding in the warm Jacuzzi. Before heading to bed, make sure you and your guests check out the beautiful starry night sky because that’s not something you get to experience all the time.

A great spot for a family weekend getaway

We had a great time exploring Hockings Hills area from this ‘home base.’ The cabin was wonderful for our group, giving everyone space to spread out but a comfortable place to hang together, too.

We loved our time! The cabin was just what we needed - plenty of space for everyone, lots of outdoor room to roam and play if we didn’t want to drive for a longer hike. We will definitely be coming back to this property!

Hocking Hills Hiking

This was a great place to stay for a family of hikers. Spent time hiking at Hocking Hills State Park and Lake Hope State Park. The house was centrally located between these parks. We hike in the morning, swim in the afternoon and then grill-out in the evening. Great times! The free WIFI was very handy as our phones had no signal on the Verizon network.

Great property for a family vacation.

We enjoyed our stay at this property. We really enjoyed the swimming pool and deck. Large house was very accommodating for our large family with enough beds and table room for everyone. It is a bit of a drive to Hocking Hills from here but that wasnt really a big problem.

Great Family Vacation

This was a great cabin in the Hocking Hills area. The family really enjoyed the pool and Hot Tub. It really came in handy with the high temps we experienced. The only recommendation we would have would be to add storage capability in the bedrooms and kitchen areas
