Muir & Thoreau

Mirror Home Reviews

Anniversaries, snow days, and the mirror effect — from the couples who stayed.

★★★★★

“My husband and I shared our anniversary in this mirrored cabin and it was one of the best experiences we’ve had in our 16 years of marriage! Stacey was excellent, responded quickly to questions that I had about the property and questions I had on our trip. We are hoping to make this our yearly retreat!”

Lindly W. · Thoreau · May 2026 · Airbnb
★★★★★

“We absolutely loved our stay here! The glass cabin is truly one of a kind … Waking up to floor-to-ceiling views of the trees was breathtaking, and at night it felt like we had our own little luxury hideaway … Everything was spotless, thoughtfully designed, and exactly as described (if not better!). We would come back in a heartbeat…”

Kenneth N. · Thoreau · Aug 2025 · Airbnb
★★★★★

“We stayed here for our 23rd wedding anniversary! Very peaceful! … Very clean and fantastic for a couples weekend retreat! Also, we wanted to mention, we got the best sleep we have had in awhile! The beds were incredible!!”

Kimberly B. · Thoreau · Apr 2026 · Airbnb
★★★★★

“We stayed here over New Year’s and it was truly an unforgettable experience … It snowed during our stay and the scenery was absolutely beautiful. Waking up to snow in the quiet, peaceful surroundings made the experience feel extremely special and calming.”

Keilin C. · Muir · Jan 2026 · Airbnb
★★★★★

“The Mirror House was such a cool experience!! My husband and I came for our anniversary and his birthday, and fully enjoyed ourselves. The views were absolutely beautiful, especially with the leaves changing this time of year.”

Lakyn L. · Thoreau · Oct 2025 · Airbnb
★★★★★

“What a marvelous gem. The house was gorgeous and romantic … the mirror effect of the house is such a unique stay.”

Colton M. · Muir · May 2026 · Airbnb

Tiny Home Reviews

Homemade bread, lit-up name signs, and the best sleep people can remember.

★★★★★

“The mattress upstairs was the most comfortable thing my husband and I have ever slept on!! … The best part of our stay was the thoughtful touch of a handwritten note, a loaf of homemade bread, and a disposable camera to capture the memories of our 20th anniversary weekend together.”

Merideth B. · Hughes · Jun 2025 · Airbnb
★★★★★

“The inside of the cottage had no expense spared … The bed was extremely comfortable, I can’t recall the last time I’ve had such a good night sleep … I will never stay anywhere else when visiting the park. Attention to detail at its finest here at the Notestone.”

Trace J. · Hughes · Jul 2025 · Airbnb
★★★★★

“It was easy to tell that thought and care went into every single detail. From the decor, the coffee pot and press, dishes and glasses, outdoor blankets, hot tub towels, super comfy mattress and bedding, lit up tiny house name signs, grill and more - Notestone Reserve did not miss a beat.”

Lindsay H. · Yeats · Aug 2025 · Vrbo
★★★★★

“It was immaculate! I’ve never stayed somewhere so clean. The house felt like home. I’ve been struggling with sleep for several months and I slept so well here.”

Rachel C. · Whitman · Feb 2025 · Airbnb
★★★★★

“Notestone Reserve is my favorite place in Hocking Hills … You can’t beat taking a hot tub dip under the tree tops and twinkly stars … She even made sure to return a jacket I left in the cabin.”

Erin S. · Yeats · Jan 2026 · Booked direct
★★★★★

“Great location - just a few miles to rock house and about a 20 minute drive to old man’s cave. Excellent little home, cozy, hot tub was perfect for post hiking relaxation!”

Mandy S. · Whitman · Dec 2025 · Airbnb

Cabin Reviews

Families, dogs with their own welcome baskets, and kids who didn’t want to leave.

★★★★★

“We never once had to say, “I wish they had thought of this”, because they had … This was one of those stays that leaves you already planning the next visit and next time, we’re absolutely trying the mirrored cabins.”

Brad S. · Austen · Feb 2026 · Booked direct
★★★★★

“I love how they stock everything you need without having to pack it all … nightlights and sound machines which are nice when you have kiddos … Our kids loved the loft and bunk beds as well as the mini arcade games downstairs … The beds are so comfortable and better than ours at home!”

Marjorie H. · Austen · Apr 2026 · Airbnb
★★★★★

“We never wanted to leave this place, absolutely pristine … We extended our trip an extra day because we did not want to leave!”

Victoria G. · Austen · May 2026 · Airbnb
★★★★★

“We had a group of five, plus a dog, and we had plenty of space for group activity and to spread out … the special touch of a doggy basket with treats for the puppy was fantastic. Willow loved the biscuits!!!”

Michael C. · Stowe · Jul 2025 · Airbnb
★★★★★

“There was a basket for my dog with dog bowls, blanket, treats and poo bags. My son had toys and games not to mention endless fun making a campfire and using the BIG HOT BATH!”

Molly B. · Stowe · May 2025 · Airbnb
★★★★★

“Do yourself a favor and book this cabin immediately. Everything was truly a dream. The family game room is such an amazing addition. My kids begged to go and play multiple times a day.”

Meaghan B. · Stowe · Jun 2026 · Airbnb

A Guest on Booking Direct

We didn’t ask Brian to say this. He stayed at Hemingway in November, hit a snag with Airbnb’s support — not with us — and wrote this in his public review.

Here’s why booking direct works out better →

“I would venture to say go out of your way to reach out to Stacey for outside booking directly … Zero support from Airbnb, will be contacting her directly going forward.”
