Inside the Hocking Hills Lodge

Discover the newly rebuilt Hocking Hills Lodge, a stunning architectural masterpiece nestled in the heart of Ohio's Hocking Hills State Park. After the original lodge, built in 1970, was tragically lost to fire, this new full-service lodge opened its doors in 2022. Designed by a talented team of architects, engineers, and local artisans, the lodge seamlessly blends traditional design elements with modern innovations.

Join us as we explore the lodge’s breathtaking grand hall, crafted with heavy timber structures and featuring custom-made ironwork and wood trusses. Learn how sustainability played a role in its creation, from bird-safe glass to the use of locally harvested materials, including live-edge wood accents and Nelsonville Star Bricks.

This three-level lodge offers a variety of amenities, including a full-service restaurant, outdoor seating with incredible views, indoor and outdoor pools, and an 81-room hotel. It’s also home to a conference center and features artwork by local artists, adding a personal touch to this state treasure.

Whether you’re hiking the nearby Whispering Cave Trail—one of the best in the nation—or enjoying the tranquil surroundings, the Hocking Hills Lodge is the perfect blend of nature, history, and modern convenience. Take a virtual tour with us and see why this lodge is a must-visit destination for nature lovers and travelers alike!
