Hints of Ohio

We're proud of our location in one of the most beautiful and diverse states. You can find subtle touches of our Ohio roots throughout the lodge in a variety of ways. From the paint scheme to featuring natural elements found onsite, we pay homage to the setting we're in and work to preserve it for future generations.

Honoring the Legacy

Throughout the lodge, you'll find elements that nod to our unique location and history in Hocking Hills.

• Talented creatives, with special ties to Ohio, crafted artwork that pays homage to lodge surroundings. This includes "Maple Leaves" and "Hickory Leaves" carvings by Jonathan Cox, Guestroom pieces by Justin Harris, “Tranquility” sculpture by Kevin Lyles, and hallway photography by Dusty Scott
• The original Hocking Hills Lodge opened in 1970 and fell to fire in 2016. Today the original flagpole, a memorial stone, and a plaque commemorate the 1970 lodge.
• Pieces of retaining wall from the preexisting lodge, along with other significant geological and historical stones, are preserved in the structure of our fireplaces.
