Sherwood is a cabin for six with a little more flexibility than most. Two king bedrooms — one on the main floor, one on the lower level — plus a queen murphy bed in the lower level living area for however the group decides to sort itself out.

Named for Sherwood Anderson — the Ohio writer behind Winesburg, Ohio, who understood that the quieter moments are usually the ones worth remembering — it’s one of four cabins at Notestone Reserve, our family-owned 14-acre property in Laurelville.

🧴 What’s Here When You Arrive

Every bathroom comes stocked with the good stuff — shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap, and lotion. One less thing to remember when you’re packing for the weekend.

We provide a starter kit of the essentials — 2 rolls of toilet paper per bathroom, a roll of paper towels, a kitchen sponge, and trash liners. We recommend bringing a little extra just in case.

🗺️ What’s Nearby

Notestone Reserve sits in the heart of the Hocking Hills, close enough to hit two or three trails in a day and still be back in time for the fire pit.

Rock House — 7 minutes

Conkle’s Hollow — 15 minutes

Old Man’s Cave — 20 minutes

Ash Cave — 26 minutes

Cedar Falls, Cantwell Cliffs, and the rest of the state park system are all within a short drive as well.

📶 About the WiFi

WiFi is included, but satellite internet in Hocking Hills has its limits. Most guests find the inconsistency easier to accept once they’re in the hot tub. We aren’t able to issue refunds for WiFi interruptions.

🌿 A Note on the Setting

We’re in a wooded area, and while we stay on top of regular pest control, the occasional ladybug or curious spider showing up is just nature doing its thing.

📋 A Few House Rules

We’re a small, family-owned operation, and keeping Notestone calm and well-kept is a group effort. A few things we ask:

• No parties or events, including bachelor/bachelorette groups. And no glitter — it never, ever goes away.

• Only registered guests on the property

• No smoking, vaping, fireworks, ATVs, hunting, or weapons

• No commercial photography or videography without written approval

• Hot tub: use the striped towels provided and keep the cover on between soaks

• Murphy bed to be operated by adults only

• Septic-safe: flush toilet paper only; no garbage disposal at the sink

• 4WD/AWD recommended during winter months

• Check-in: 4:00 PM / Check-out: 11:00 AM

✏️ Before You Arrive

All guests sign a simple renter agreement once you book. We’ll send it over — quick, painless, and it helps us take good care of you and everyone else on the property.
