We have welcomed a lot of new faces lately, so it feels like the right time to introduce ourselves. π
We are the family behind The Woodlands at Hocking Hills and Give Back Hospitality.
A few years ago, we bought our first cabin here. It was simply a place where our family could make memories together. We never imagined it would grow into a community movement and a passion for helping others.
What started as hosting guests has become so much more.
Today, through The Woodlands at Hocking Hills, we strive to create places where families can slow down, reconnect, and make lasting memories. We also believe hospitality can make a difference beyond the stay.
That is why every booking gives back.
In 2022, our kids each picked a charity, and every guest now chooses which one their stay supports. They still help pack the blessing bags that sit by the door. We run food drives. Heart Stays give donated nights to families staying at Ronald McDonald House.
We believe hospitality is about more than a place to stay. It is an opportunity to create meaningful experiences, strengthen communities, and make a difference beyond the stay.
We believe every business has the opportunity to make a positive impact, and we are passionate about helping other hosts discover simple ways to do the same. That is what Give Back Hospitality is for.
Everything we do is rooted in our faith, our family, and the belief that even small acts of kindness can create a ripple effect far beyond what we ever imagined.
If you are here looking for a peaceful getaway, if you are a fellow host, or if you simply believe business can be a platform for impact, welcome. We are so glad you are here.
