The Grande Old World

At the high point of the property, sitting directly above the shores of State Park Lake Logan, Belvedere Vue is more than a vacation rental – it is a private sanctuary of art, architecture, and natural serenity. This elegant two-bedroom, two-bathroom villa has been lovingly designed by the artist-owner herself, offering guests an intimate encounter with fine art and the quiet magic of the Hocking Hills.
Step inside and you are immediately welcomed by warm hickory hardwood floors that flow gracefully throughout the villa, creating a sense of timeless elegance and comfort underfoot. A dramatic architectural detail draws the eye: a gilded Corinthian capital crowning the beam that gracefully divides the fully equipped gourmet kitchen from the sun-drenched great room. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame breathtaking views of the Butterfly and Prairie Gardens and the sparkling expanse of the lake beyond, flooding the open living spaces with golden light throughout the day.
The interiors are a celebration of collected beauty. The Prince Albert China collection shares space with the original bronze La Source by Drouot, a graceful water nymph from the Paris Salons of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Nearby, the homeowner’s own works rotate through the rooms, creating an atmosphere that feels both museum-worthy and warmly lived-in. In the great room, a supple leather sectional with electric recliners faces a 60-inch television above the fireplace – perfect for relaxed evenings.
The fully equipped kitchen invites everything from quiet breakfasts to lively dinners, while the master suite offers a true retreat, boasting marble floors, and a soaking tub.  The Spa room is equipped with a full-body infrared light therapy bed, a private sauna, and a massage chair.  You are sure to get the selfcare you need in this sanctuary for deep rest and renewal.
Outside, the gardens come alive with color—from towering hemlocks to lush hostas—complementing many clay sculptures created by the artist-owner herself, alongside works by other local talents. This artistic landscape pays quiet tribute to Logan’s long legacy as a center of clay and pottery since the early 1900s.
Just off the deck, a gas grill and firepit blend seamlessly into the landscape. Belvedere Vue is presented by Cut Above Cabins and the 7-acre property – with its additional gardens and vacation rentals.  We extend the pleasure and warmly invite guests to freely roam this hidden gem in the heart of the Hocking Hills. Included kayaks and canoes are available to launch directly from the shoreline, along with mountain bikes for exploring the area.
Whether you seek a romantic escape, a creative retreat, or simply a place to slow down and breath, Belvedere Vue delivers an experience that lingers long after you leave—where every detail tells a story and every moment feels like your own.
