Great getaway

We had a great time at the Chubby Frog. It was so secluded and private. Very close to all of the main attractions in Hocking Hills. The cabin had everything you could need and soooo much more. We will definitely be back again. Thanks again Vicki and Steve for a great stay.

Vicki was such a lovely host. My husband and I had an amazing four days there. I would totally recommend you folks to book now. It was literally home away from home. We enjoyed the entire property so much, the views are amazing. The bees were a bit fussy at times and wanted to drink with us lol. We definitely plan on booking again, thanks again Vicki ☺️

Lovely Place To Stay

We stayed at the Chubby Frog and found the place to be clean, comfortable, and well stocked with items that may have been forgotten or needed. The Chubby Frog is off the beaten path but in the heart of Hocking Hills and close to a wonderful winery. The host left many helpful notes and brochures to help guide us in making decisions of what to do in the area other than hiking. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely book again!

There should be 6 stars!

We had a fantastic stay at the Chubby Frog Cabin! We spent a long weekend with some friends and had a great time exploring the property and relaxing. EVERYTHING was perfect...immaculate property, excellent layout, and over the top provisions were provided by the hosts, who were also fantastic communicators. I encourage anyone looking for a nature retreat to consider this ideal property. To the hosts: Thank you again, this was fantastic!

Slice of Heaven

WOW!! The Chubby Frog and its owners did not disappoint. The house is absolutely adorable, clean, and stocked full of everything you could need. The property is an absolute dream. We loved hiking the private trails and waterfalls—you have your own private oasis to explore with not another soul in sight but then you’re also so close to all the amazing Hocking Hills trails. We stayed with my parents and two small kids and the activities and things to do were endless. We also loved just hanging at the house, playing games, sitting by the bonfire, and enjoying the hot tub. We did not want to leave, but left feeling more relaxed and recharged than ever! Vicki and Steve are the hosts with the most and were so helpful and amazing. We are definitely coming back and recommending the Chubby Frog to our friends and family (although we’re tempted to keep it our little secret slice of heaven!)

Quick Spring Break Trip

The cabin was very clean and well-kept. There was lots of wildlife that could be observed from inside the cabin and on the deck. The hosts are very thoughtful in having the cabin stocked with lots of necessities. It is also located close to Hocking Hills. We made multiple trips there during our stay.

We had a wonderful stay at this property. It was clean and welcoming. The Vicki was a wonderful host and very easy to reach. The cabin was well stocked, they thought of everything a guest could need. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t super great while we were there but the amenities in the cabin made staying inside just as fun. We will stay here again!

Great secluded cabin

We loved our stay at chubby frog. We have stayed at a lot of VRBOs, and this was by far the best stocked cabin- tons of snacks, drinks- where we truly felt like a guest with all the little touches! The cabin was extremely clean, including the hot tub. We loved the location- and the private hiking trails were great! Perfect cabin if you are looking for central location to explore Hocking hills, but to come back to seclusion in the woods after. The host was very accessible and easy to communicate with.

Our group enjoyed our stay at chubby frog. It was a great get away weekend. The private trail winds through amazing scenery away from the bustle of Hocking Hills main trails. I have already recommended the chubby frog to others if their group needs a break in Ohio.

Lovely Property in a Great Location

Chubby Frog cabin is tastefully updated, super clean, and all the modern amenities despite being in a secluded area in Hocking Hills. Vicky, the owner, is very friendly and easy to contact. The property is close to Hocking Hills State Park. Enjoyed sitting in the hot tub while hummingbirds zoomed by! Followed the owners directions, and markers through the nature preserve to a small waterfall, rock formation nearby. Felt adventurous! Thanks for a Wonderful Trip!
