5 Reasons Why Hocking Hills Should be on Your Bucket List

Looking for something fun to add to your Bucket List that won't cost you an arm and a leg or a trip around the world (I'm looking at you, overwater bungalows in Bora Bora!)?
Consider Hocking Hills, Ohio!
Feeling doubtful that there's something cool enough in Ohio to add to your Bucket List? To that I say;
A. Ohio is awesome, and there's actually plenty of cool things to do here.
and
B. Hocking Hills is definitely Bucket List worthy!
Here are my 5 Reasons Why Hocking Hills should be on your Bucket List.

1. You can rent a cabin in the woods with a hot tub and a fireplace
And isn't that all we really want?

2. Amazing hikes for hiking enthusiasts and non-hikers alike
I like hiking, but am definitely not a professional, and me and Rocco absolutely loved the hiking Hocking Hills had to offer. Even when it was 28 degrees outside, we loved it!

3. Out of this world views that you will make you believe you are not in Ohio
Holy moly, you will not believe some of the insane things you will see while exploring Hocking Hills (like the Devil's Bathtub, above)!

4. You can do as little or as much as you want here
Hocking Hills is a great place to escape everyday life, do some soul searching, mosey along a sleepy trail, relax in a hot tub, and read in front of a crackling fireplace.
Or, you can hike the 25 miles of trails, go kayaking, horseback riding, and zip lining!

5. You can bring your dog here
Rocco loved his trip to Hocking Hills (I didn't have Kramer yet), and I loved having him there.
I visited here during my divorce, and being able to get away with Rocco for a weekend was exactly what my soul needed.
I am always looking for fun dog-friendly places and activities, and Hocking Hills is the perfect place for that.

Read all about my Hocking Hills trip.

Start your Bucket List today!

Peace Love and Hocking Hills

Fall Getaway Close to Home at Riverside Hideout

Last week me and the babies had the opportunity to stay in one of the area's coolest Airbnbs- Riverside Hideout in Dover, Ohio!

Riverside Hideout is the perfect weekend getaway close to home-
a tiny house shipping container with an amazing wanderlust bicycle theme, a hot tub, a fire pit, and more!

I got to spend the night here with my babies, and it was a perfect quick getaway from reality, and a wonderful time spent together relaxing and cuddling.
