About this space

Upon arrival to the Blue Jay Cabin, you will follow a long gravel driveway to reach the charming cabin that is nestled back on 3-private manicured acres. One on side of the Blue Jay Cabin, our guests have beautiful, picturesque mountain views. On the other side of the Blue Jay Cabin, our guests have views of a mountainside covered by forest woodland where wildlife thrives.

The space
Guests will walk into the Blue Jay Cabin to a warm & inviting cottage with knotty pine covered walls and hard wood flooring. The best feature of the Blue Jay Cabin includes the beautiful, bright windows in the living room which allow our guests to have picturesque views throughout their entire stay. Guests can enjoy homecooked meals thanks to the fully stocked kitchen & kitchen amenities OR guests can treat themselves to dinner. Travel 15 minutes down the road to some of our favorite local restaurants. On the backside of the cottage, there is a newly renovated firepit with wooden benches. A great space to spend quality time, roasting marshmallows, telling stories, and creating memories around a toasty warm fire. After exploring the beautiful Hocking Hills State Park, experiencing Wayne National Forest, or enjoying the finer things in this local region... end your night relaxing and unwinding in the warm Jacuzzi. There's nothing better than leaning your head back, listening to some music, spending quality time with good people, and having great conversations than doing so underneath an open starry night sky. Start planning your trip today!

A unique feature to the Blue Jay Cabin is that it is an ATV Friendly cabin. This means that ATV enthusiasts who are visiting the area to go trail riding on Wayne National Forest can ride right from the cabin to the Dorr Run Trail Head. We have garage access so our guests can store their ATVs/UTVs. We sell Wayne National Forest 3-day and seasonal trail passes at our headquarters, where guests check-in. Guests also receive a 10% discount on their next outdoor adventure at Adventure Pro Outdoors. Book a canoe, kayak, or tube rental along the scenic Hocking River or book a guided ATV/UTV tour on Wayne National Forest to experience Hocking Hills like never before.
