Hocking Hills WeddingMoons Testimonials

Words will never express how grateful we are for the ceremony you provided us!  We actually dated in high school.  Twenty-six years after we parted ways we ran into each other again at a local gas station I worked for.  Andy and I haven't been apart since that day!  The vows you included in our ceremony were word for word perfect!  They brought tears to our eyes and smiles to our faces, as we have spent many nights discussing how important honesty, faithfulness, and unconditional love is to both of us.  Thank you so much for making our wedding day more perfect than we couldn't imagined. 


Words cannot express the wonderful time we've had here at the Guest Nest!  We arrived Sunday and we were married Monday morning.  Elizabeth and the staff here made it the perfect day!  I had my hair done here in the cabin!  Relaxed a bit before we strolled down to the Gazebo (You must check it out!).  The most perfect place!  Elizabeth performed our ceremony and Patrick did our pictures...We were so happy with the entire ceremony!  They also made us dinner reservations for that evening.  We didn't want to leave!  We've never felt so welcomed away from home!


I'm a little late with this thank you email but I wanted to say thank you to Getaway Cabins and all of their friendly staff! We were married in the gazebo October 16th, 2010 and our ceremony was absolutely beautiful!! And a special thanks to Elizabeth- she was just so great! We stayed in cabin #22 with our two dogs and had the time of our lives, the cabin was beautiful! Cant wait to come back!!



This was our second trip to Hocking Hills and by far the best! We arrived Saturday, got married Sunday, and relaxed on Monday, and regretfully had to leave on Tuesday. I’m sure we will be back, maybe for the winter. I love this cabin. It’s very charming and has everything we were hoping for! The staff here is very nice and the next time we come back, we will definitely be staying here. We didn’t really see any animals at the feeding station, our dog must have scared them off. Oh Well. The hot tub is amazing! This was the perfect place to get married and we can’t wait to come back soon.



We are here for our wedding.  Aaron and I have known each other most of our lives.  Together we have three children, and we are very excited to combine our families.  Getaway Cabins has been great in helping us make our dreams come true.  I can't wait to spend the rest of my live with somone I'm so in love with and know he loves me too.  We brought our kids with us for the wedding...they love it here.  I'm sure we'll be back for family vacations and weekend getaways!


We got married today in the gazebo!  Ashley performed such a beautiful, intimate ceremony.  We are in our 60's, and a long time ago were high school sweethearts-guess you never know what life has in store for you down the road.  We enjoyed all of the hiking and even did the zip line!  Ate at the Hocking Hills Dining Lodge, Millstone BBQ, and best of all the Grouse Nest on the top of the world.  The best part of our three day mini-moon was coming back to this sweet little cabin in the woods.  We are in awe of this beautiful experience.  Thank you-from the bottom of our hearts! 


We found Getaway Cabins online searching for that "perfect place" to elope.  We found it!  This place is heaven.  Our private ceremony in the gazebo was extremely romantic and Ashley was great.  Everyone is so friendly and we loved all of the wildlife.  We went to several antique malls and hiked a few miles to see all of the wonderful sites.  The hot tub was perfect after a fantastic day in Ohio.  We drove 5 1/2 hours from Battle Creek, Michigan to get here and we have fallen in love.  :)  This will be our special anniversary getaway from many years to come.  Thanks so much!


We planned a weekend WeddingMoon here in Hocking Hills.  My fiance and I arrived early on Friday.  Elizabeth greeted us at the office (very nice lady!)  The cabin was very welcoming with lights on and music playing!  Saturday morning at 11:00am we had a beautiful wedding at Ash Cave.  Thank you so much to Elizabeth and Patrick!  After the ceremony we had dinner at the Grouse Nest, went to Cedar Falls, and Old Man's Cave.  Hocking Hills is so beautiful!  It started raining while we were at dinner, but that didn't stop us!  Besides, it's good luck if it rains on your wedding day!  Saturday night we grilled out and hung out in the hot tub.  We had a wonderful time and plan to come back.

Our stay here was so beautiful it's hard to find the words!  We came here to celebrate 13 years of marriage and renew our vows 8/9/10 at 11:00am.  Cute, huh?  I have to say though, short of our wedding day and birth of our son, this was the best!  We had candlit dinners on the deck, hot tub and wine time, watched the animals eat at feeding station including wild turkey and deer.  On the day of the ceremony it was so beautiful!  As we renewed our vows there was a butterfly that circled us!  Elizabeth was great and took awesome pictures!  We then hiked the 2 1/2 miles on Conkles Hollow, that's one we had never been to before!  It was a trek but beautiful and we even came within a few feet of 2 baby deer and their mama, and they even let us take pics.  Then we came back to another awesome romantic evening.  I'm kinda sad we are not staying past our two days, but we miss our son too.  We look forward to many more visits and hope to make this a home away from home.  My prayer for all those who visit is that they share the love we share, and make the memories that we have because in the end, that's all that matters. 


We came here as boyfriend and girlfriend, and left as husband and wife.  We had a wonderful, peaceful time!  Even though I'm from here, I still enjoyed every bit of it!  We will definitely be back!  The hot tub was amazing!  The staff was so nice and caring!


Got Married yesterday.. in the middle of a thunderstorm! It was beautiful. Dinner at the Grouse Nest where we watched Hummingbirds thru our yummy meal. Then back to the cabin to watch raccoons from the hot tub..  Slept til 10:30 this morning so we are scrambleing to check out. Off for a picnic lunch and hiking. I love you, Joel.

Do we have to leave? What a perfect 24 hours. The most romantic dinner at the Grouse Nest. Just the drive there made our 4x4 Jeep happy. It was secluded, beautiful and reflected my new wife in her wedding dress well. I love you too, Shannon.



Everyone did a fabulous job preparing our cabin and making sure everything was ready.  The staff here is EXCELLENT!  Very thoughtful and helpful with everything.  No complaints at all.  The hot tub was wonderful and the location was perfect.  We will definitely be coming back!


We came here to get married at Ash Cave and couldn't have chosen a better place.  All of our friends and family rented surrounding cabins, and my parents and our best man stayed with us.  Friday we just hung out and got to visit with everyone.  The Lodge is so spacious and had everything we needed to feel comfortable-just like we were at home.  We enjoyed a family breakfast on Saturday morning and just relaxed before the wedding.  It is so peaceful here. :)  I used the loft area to get ready and it was wonderful.  Plenty of room for my Mom to be with me and my friends stopped by to check on me and take pictures.  Married at Ash Cave which was perfect!  The weather held out for us and Elizabeth made everything so easy and flow so smoothly.  After the wedding, everyone came back to The Lodge for a catered meal by the Grouse Nest.  Excellent food and cake!  Our guests left on Sunday morning and John and I enjoyed a lazy day and then a 90 minute in-cabin couples massage by Blue Valley Massage and it was awesome!  We then had the Traveling Chef prepare us one of the best meals I have ever had.  We then enjoyed our champagne out in the hot tub.  So peaceful!  I could not have asked for a better wedding weekend.  Because of the beautiful Lodge at Lane's End, Elizabeth from Getaway Cabins, and Melody at the Grouse Nest, it all came together perfectly.  We hope to come back every year!  


We came to Getaway Cabins to get married and have a nice relaxing time alone.  We made the Perfect choice.  When deciding where to go to get married, we considered Vegas (too loud & busy), Mexico (red tape), and Kelley's Island (a bit early in the season).  At Getaway Cabins, we had a quiet and personal ceremony at the gazebo.  Flowers were brought right to us, pictures taken on the spot, and we got a program booklet with our vows on it as a keepsake.  Also, we brought our dogs with us which was so much fun and saved us money on kennels.  Everyone here is very friendly and accommodating.  The cabin was very clean and nicely decorated. 


We arrived to a beautiful fresh snow fall.  Every branch on every tree glittered like a beautiful Christmas card.  A family of deer greeted us at the front door, like they had been invited to share a secret only the two of us and the wonderful Elizabeth had planned!  We stood in the corner of the deck with the snowflakes falling silently around us.  We said our vows, we shared some tears.  With a sweet warm kiss she pronounced us husband and wife in the most amazing setting any bride and groom could have hoped for!  Thank you for the memory!   



This was our first time here, and it was wonderful!!  We were married in the Log Gazebo yesterday and it was beautiful.  Elizabeth and Patrick were great!  The cabin is so cozy.  We sat in the hot tub and watched the squirrels play.  We will definitely be returning, hopefully for a longer stay.  We would love to bring our dogs, they would be in heaven.

"Our wedding weekend!  Thanks to Getaway Cabins for such a memorable experience!  We were married at Upper Falls at Old Man's Cave...it was a prefect day.  We were so happy to start our wonderful life together in this lovely place.  Great memories to cherish!  Our friends from home came on our last night to celebrate with us...what a blessing they are to us.  We will be back again with our dog, Leo, to make more memories.  This is just the beginning....


The cabin was awesome.  Very relaxing, cozy, and private.  The staff was very hospitable.  It was a great pleasure to have our wedding here, and we are definitely going to plan a return trip.  We saw a family of four deer, a mother and three babies, out front.  And we also saw buck in the woods out back.  The raccoons paid us a visit as well.  Thanks a million! 


Well after 12 years of being together we decided to tie the knot. We were married by Elizabeth in a very private, romantic ceremony. We would highly recommend this stress free way of starting your new lives together! We enjoyed Stacey, our Traveling Chef.  Wonderful food- “the best!” We also enjoyed the wonderful hot tub, very relaxing! We had a Wonderful honeymoon at the Retreat. There isn’t a thing I would do differently. We will be back! Enjoy it all!



One year ago today, my husband and I came here to be married and we stayed in this very cabin. We thought it was the best way to celebrate our first anniversary by staying here once again. We really like it here! No better place to take a “time out.” We had a wonderful time and I’m quite sure we will be back for more!!



It really was the "Ultimate Fantasy" wedding and weekend!


My new husband and I came here to have a personal wedding...We got here on the day of our wedding and everything looked perfect!  I found Getaway Cabins online and it looked and sounded so nice we drove 5+ hours to get here, and YES, it was worth it! :) They set our honeymoon up perfectly.  We bought the "Ultimate Fantasy" package and everything was worth the price!  The outside setting of our wedding was beautiful although it was a mixture of rain/snow which started not long before our ceremony.  However, although the weather was horrid and I got my wedding dress all muddy and was freezing my whole ceremony, everyone here made it amazing and I wouldn't change anything!  We had a picnic lunch waiting in our cabin when we got back, our room was decorated beautifully and later on a chef came and cooked us an amazing dinner in our cabin.  What a pristine, personal, quiet, and secluded place to get married!  Last night here and I don't know how many times we've said we don't want to go back home to crazy city life!  I have nothing bad to say about this place and we already plan on coming back next year for our one year anniversary!  Special thanks to Elizabeth and Patrick for making our day an unforgettable one!

We found this cabin on the internet and everything fell in place after that.  We knew we would marry sometime soon, but once we booked the cabin we thought it would be a perfect spot to celebrate our special day.  Our ceremony was at 12:30pm so after that we had the whole day to enjoy.  We went out to explore the area.  Ash Cave was amazing!  Once night came we enjoyed the hot tub, the cozy fireplace, and the very cozy cabin.  What a great day!  We will remember it FOREVER!

The cabin was absolutely beautiful! Our picnic basket of food and wine was excellent! Our wedding was awesome, our family was present which made it perfect. This was a second wedding for both of us. We have known each other for fifteen years. After we arrived back to our cabin we found rose petals leading up the staircase to the bedroom which had candles everywhere and a rose heart on the bed. It was absolutely beautiful. We couldn’t have picked a more special place. A chef will be arriving soon to cook a special dinner. The Getaway Cabins crew does an amazing job to make your wedding day a very special moment.  Everything was perfect! Thank you for allowing us to have a very special day!



We have been to the Hocking Hills area twice before which is the very thing that brought us back here on the most important day of our lives-our wedding day.  We wanted an intimate wedding and it couldn't have been more special or perfect!  We married at the gazebo right up the path.  It was a beautiful ceremony and the pastor (Elizabeth) and her crew were wonderful.  It is such a terrific feeling knowing that we will come back here to revisit the very spot where we exchanged vows and pledged our love.  May you and yours find the "magic" in these hills just as the two of us have.


We came to Getaway Cabins to get married.  We had a beautiful ceremony in the Gazebo which was beautifully decorated.  Elizabeth officiated it and did a wonderful job.  What a sweet gal she is!  We’ve enjoyed our honeymoon here and I am sad to leave the hot tub, sleeping in, and the animal visits.  The deer and hummingbirds especially like our little feedings.    The cabin is adorable and the serenity and solitude was exactly what we were looking for.  We had the chef prepare us dinner and that was very good!  I would highly suggest treating yourself to that.  We had a beautiful wedding-amazing solitude, friendly staff, a marvelous dinner-a perfect way to begin our marriage together! 



I could never thank you enough for giving us the wedding of our dreams (to the man of my dreams).  Everything about the planning was made very simple and catered to us.  The ceremony was beautiful, and how sweet of the photographer to ask us which poses we wanted!  We couldn't have asked for a nicer cabin.  We had fun hiking to a waterfall.  We plan on coming back and bringing lots of family and friends!


At the very moment we stepped into the cabin, we know how special of an experience this would be.  The amenities of our honeymoon package made this unforgettable wedding stay all the more satisfying and enjoyable.  We will be back for our 1st anniversary! 



Wow!  What a wonderful romantic getaway.  We were married on the 5th out in the Gazebo with Elizabeth officiating.  The ceremony was so personal and beautiful.  The wildlife around the cabin and the area was a wonderful sight.  We saw wild turkeys, raccoons, deer, squirrels, a red headed woodpecker and all the other birds of this area.  Everything was just simply marvelous!  The hot tub was so relaxing!  The staff were very friendly and the cabin was clean and very peaceful.  We are planning to return in the fall and, of course, next year on our one year anniversary.  Thanks for making our wedding and honeymoon such a memorable one.
