The falls are running, which almost never happens in August.
Weeks of rain have Cedar Falls and Whispering Cave fuller than they have any right to be this time of year. In a dry summer they thin to a damp streak down the rock. Right now they're worth the drive — and both are under half an hour from the door.
Midweek nights at Old Beech Cottage are $139 through the end of September. After that we're into October, which is the busiest month in the Hocking Hills and the one that books first.
If you've been meaning to get out here, this is the window.
