Guest Reviews

My wife and I truly enjoyed our anniversary getaway. The Drummond croft was clean and welcoming. We enjoyed the gas fireplace between the bedroom and sitting room and the hot tub. The people were nice, breakfast was great, and the on-premises trails were as good as anything at the parks. Scenic and well-maintained. Thank you so much for a great night away, Glen Laurel! We truly enjoyed ourselves.

- Paul Allen

We had a wonderful relaxing time. The property was clean and well kept in Hocking Hills. Hiking opportunities all around. But the best part was the amazing dinner and breakfasts and the helpful and friendly staff. They all went out of their way to make our anniversary stay very memorable.

My wife and I recently stayed at the Glenlaurel for the first time and we had a fantastic time! We stayed in the Bruce and absolutely loved it.

We came home and were already talking...See More

My wife and I stayed here for our anniversary and we loved everything. The room, Campbell, the grounds were beautiful, the food was delicious, and the employees were all very nice. They even left us a little anniversary gift. A perfect little romantic getaway.

- Adam Kinney

I love this place. My husband and I have been spending our wedding anniversary there for a decade already. The place is beautiful, the service is wonderful, and the food is delicious. We look forward to our next visit. Strongly recommend for a romantic getaway, particularly if you like the outdoors.
