Rooted Domes
Quick Facts
Why Hocking Hills
New Plymouth sits deep in Hocking Hills, the 13,000-acre gorge-and-waterfall region that draws visitors from across the Midwest. Rooted Domes leans fully into the area’s escape-the-grid appeal — a small, five-star-only operation where the host thinks through every detail, right down to an outdoor bathtub and fresh eggs left for guests each morning.
The lack of cell service here is a genuine feature rather than a drawback for most guests, matching the region’s reputation as a place to fully disconnect among ancient sandstone gorges and hemlock forest.

Pro Tips for Booking
Bring a capable vehicle. The driveway is genuinely steep, and a small car may struggle — worth knowing before you commit to a booking.
Embrace the lack of cell service. WiFi is available, but this is genuinely built for disconnecting, not staying online.
Look for the fresh eggs. It’s a small, thoughtful touch reviewers consistently mention.
What to Do Around Here
- Cedar Falls, one of the most photographed waterfalls in Ohio
- Old Man’s Cave and Ash Cave, both a short drive away
- The Grandma Gatewood Trail, connecting the region’s major landmarks
- Conkle’s Hollow, a narrow gorge trail lush with moss and ferns
- Genuine quiet and disconnection, right on the property
