Large Woodpeckers at Martinwoods Cabins in Hocking Hills

Today was beautiful, very spring/summer like. Not sure what the weekend will bring but today was perfect. Had the windows open to allow all the fresh spring air to enter the cabin, after being closed up all winter it was great to be able to smell the fresh air and listen to all the sounds of nature that abound here in Hocking Hills. We have the largest woodpeckers, I would swear these things are on Miracle-Gro. They are huge, at least 12" long, I think the woodpeckers get bigger each year. I was able to sit and enjoy all the sounds of the birds, wind through the trees and all the noises on the ground like the chipmunks and squirrels as they ran through the woods. I love Summer and we are getting closer. Come visit us if you are looking to unwind from hectic everyday life. We offer an 8 bedroom cabin in the heart of Hocking Hills. www.martinwoodscabins.com

Beautiful Hocking Hills

Hocking Hills is a place of beauty with all the wonderful natural waterfalls, hiking trails and all the other wonderful things that we have to offer. Martinwoods Cabins is situated right in the middle of the beauty of it all, we are surrounded by the beauty of the woods and all the trees that are changing colors. We offer a luxury 5-8 bedroom cabin for you to enjoy with family and friends We are a short drive to the major attractions such as Old Mans Cave, Conkles Hollow, Rock House, Ash Caves, Cedar Falls and others. The Hocking Hills region is beautiful anytime of year but when it snows it is breathtaking. If coming to our cabin in the winter you will HAVE to have a 4 wheel drive to make it to the cabin, and it is recommended year round as well but a MUST in the winter. Even though you need a 4 wheel drive the cabin is well worth the drive to get there. Come visit and see why we have so many repeat guests. Visit our website to see photos and a video that shows the layout of the cabin www.martinwoodscabins.com

Summer is here officially here and it is a great time to visit the Hocking Hills, come on down to the Hocking Hills and see what is new. We have a large 8 bedroom cabin to accomodate your large group for family reunions and other events.

Hocking Hills Caves and Cabin

When visiting Martinwoods Cabins in Hocking Hills You may want to check out all the area has to offer such as

Rock House

Old Man's Cave, off state Route 664 about 11 miles south of U.S. 33, is the most-visited Cave in the Hocking Hills, there are places to have a picnic, many families gather there for family reunions in the summer. I believe it is first come first serve but you may want to check with the park to be sure.

Ash Cave off state Route 56 at the southern end of the park is Ohio's largest recessed cave.


Cedar Falls is one of the most photographed areas of the Hocking Hills and is located off state Route 374 is halfway between Old Man's Cave and Ash Cave.



Cantwell Cliffs is the most isolated section of Hocking Hills

So if you are looking for a great way to spend some alone time with the family and reconnect, Martinwoods Cabins is a great place to do it and we are 5-10 miles from all the are attractions such as the caves, horse back riding, canoeing, fishing swimming and more.

Join us for a great time and relax here and enjoy the sounds of nature rather than the sounds of traffic, phones etc.

See you soon.

Happy Valentines Day

Today we lots of slushy snow, great for snowballs, not so much for getting up a steep hill:) We have not had a bad winter yet so I really cannot complain but this past weekend was cold, never made it out of the teens and they said wind chill of 5 below. However last week was not bad and Feb 1 was in the upper 60's not too bad for the first of Feb. Who knows what the rest of the winter will bring, hopefully an early spring. I love watching the flowers bloom and the trees bud.

Hope everyone had a great Valentines.

We are here when you need a large cabin for your next vacation in the Hocking Hills

Weather update

Really nice on Wed Feb 1st, I think it was upper 60's, the rest of the week has been a cold start and then low 50's, same goes for today if they are correct.

It has been a great winter so far except for the one weekend we got ice and could not do anything with the driveway so we could not rent it. other than that it has been a pretty good winter and I hope spring arrives quickly. I can talk to someone for hours but writing is a little harder for me but I am trying to keep track of the weather so guest from all over can see what the weather is like here, although this is not our typical winter, but weather in Ohio can change by the hour so you can not go on this update for the following year:) it could be nice here today and then next year at this time have a foot of snow. I am just trying to keep a record so I can see for myself as well as my customers what the weather patterns are.

Hope everyone had a great New Years and is looking forward to a great spring and summer.

If there are any questions you have please do not hesitate to call us or email us. our official website is www.martinwoodscabins.com

weather again

Trying to keep up on the weather updates but forget sometimes:)

yesterday it was freezing and oh so windy. I do not think it made it past freezing. Today 01/30/12 it was 27 when I left the house at 9:00 and it does not appear to be getting much warmer. I do not think it is going to get out of the 30's today either. Supposed to have a warmer day this week but I am not holding my breath. We shall see:)

Colder today

Today was only about 32* much colder than yesterday but it is Ohio of course.

Hocking Hills is great anytime of year but of course there is so much more to do in the spring and summer with the canoeing, kayaking, horseback riding, ziplines and more

sunny and warmer

As I mentioned yesterday I am going to try to keep track of the weather each day so everyone can see what the weather is like in the Hocking Hills at martinwoods Cabins.

Today we hand wind, sun and about 50+ very nice for the start of the day then rained and got much colder, so we will see what tomorrow brings:)

Lots of ice today

We decided not to rent the cabin this weekend due to the ice and snow. Since the Westwind cabin is on a large hill and has a steep gravel drive we felt it best to not rent to anyone because we know that they would not be able to make it up or down the hill for that matter since there was so much ice.

We would rather lose the money than have someone get here and not be able to get in and out of the cabin to go enjoy the sites of the Hocking Hills.

We are ready for spring but tomorrow is supposed to be in the 40's so hoping it melts the ice.

Another rainy cold day in Ohio BUT the good news is we are one day closer to spring and with spring we get the beautiful flowers, trees budding and all the animals coming out from hibernating through the winter. I love spring and summer and cannot wait for the warmer temps but there is still a lot to do during the colder months. There is the winter hike this month at Old Mans Cave and just sitting around a fire in the great room is a great way to spend quality time with friends and family, free from stress and work.

Come visit us this winter for a great way to reconnect with your family and friend in the beauty of the Hocking Hills and Martinwoods Cabins.

We can accommodate up to 20 people in the 8 bedroom 4 bath lodge in the Hocking Hills.

Above normal temps

I love the Hocking Hills and I love the face that we are having some above normal temps, wish it would continue.

It is a new year and everything is going great. I hope that this year I can have great guests like most of the guests we have. This year we have had a few really bad customers and I hope that does not happen this year. All we ask is that when you come to our cabin that we built for you to enjoy that you treat it properly. We have had a few customers this year that thought it was ok to destroy things and even one group that thought it was ok to break into and unauthorized area.Mind you this group was not a group of young adults but a group that had parents as well as grand parents.

We take pride in our cabin and just want our guests to do the same.

So hoping this year we will have no issues:)

I love all of our guests and repeat guests and just want everyone to enjoy themselves and have a great time while respecting our proerty.

Hope eveyone has a great new year:)

Rainy Day

It is a rainy day in the Hocking Hills but still beautiful, trees are nice orange and reds. I love the colors but I do not like the change to cold weather, guess that is where the hot tub comes in handy:). Have another great group coming this weekend. Hope they get to take lots of pics of the trees that are changing.

If you are in need of a large cabin for up to 20 people we have a large cabin with 8 bedrooms, you can also view the video I put on there at

Another cold rainy day

Even though it is cold an rainy, I still love the Hocking Hills.
It is beautiful almost every season, winter is kind of dreary but unless you live in a hot climate you are going to have that.

Here is a small box that I engraved and just wanted to share it:)

Cold day in Hocking Hills

Well I guess winter is on its way, it is freezing here in Hocking Hills this morning and the rain does not make it any better. Hope it warms up again soon.

Thank you to guest of Martinwoods Cabins

I would first like to thank all of my great guests. We have had some not so great guests because they cannot respect others property but I do appreciate all the great repeat customers that we have. It is getting colder as falls begins and it makes for a great hot tub experience. If you have never tried a hot tub when the snow falls you are missing out. It is so beautiful to sit in a nice warm hot tub and look up as the snow falls on your face.

Many people think that when you get out it will be cold but it is quite the opposite, since your blood warms up while you are in the hot tub it is not bad at all when you step out.

Our Hocking Hills cabin will sleep up to 20 and makes a great Hocking Hills getaway for families. There are many things to enjoy in the Hocking Hills at any time of year and we hope that you will tell your friends and family about us.

Thanks again to all of our wonderful repeat guests at Martinwoods Cabins, you are what makes it worth the effort.
