Frances Mayes on the Joy of Italian Cucina Povera - AFAR
"An urban, hyped dining spot whose dinners the author experienced but ultimately found less worthy of reverence than the spontaneity and genuineness of Italian home cooking; the meals left the author unable to 'worship' at these polished urban temples in the way one might at true cucina povera." - Frances Mayes
Not what we expected. Master bed was the most comfortable, the other beds were thin and not to comfortable. Pots and pans were hard to cook on, and very hard to clean. Bathroom in the Master bedroom, not to convenient for other guests. Quiet location

We spent the evening in the Cardinal House cottage for our Anniversary. This cottage is perfect! It’s clean, beautifully decorated, simply inviting and includes a full coffee bar! Sitting in the hot tub in the freezing cold was amazingly relaxing. We’ll definitely be returning for another visit! Thank you!

An excellent find! Our family (2 adults and 2 kids) loved our stay here. The perfect little getaway, with lots of little details thought of by the owner that makes it a comfort like home. The hot tub is a great addition!

My family and I spent several days here as we toured the area. Everything at the Cardinal house was perfect. It was very clean which made us feel comfortable especially with a pandemic right now. We felt comfortable and cozy and felt right at home the whole time. We will definitely think about coming back sometime in the near future.

Cozy and beautiful. First family trip away and I couldn't be more impressed. A whole week at the cardinal house! Little appearance but the inside is stunning. Everything is pretty close and I would definitely recommend and stay again! Fully stocked on just about everything. Dishes, towels, coffee, and more. A family of four me, my husband, our 12 and 5 year old loved it!

We spent 3 nights at the Cardinal House and had such a lovely, cozy stay! The decor was welcoming, the coffee bar stocked, and the hot tub waiting for us on the cold nights. Such a great place with a great host! We will surely be back 😀

A hidden gem! My husband had to impromptuly make a trip down to the hocking hills area and my three girls (4 and under) and myself decided to join him. Rachel was super flexible with our last minute accommodations! Our stay was so lovely. The cabin is clean and homey with a farmhouse chic feel. I loved the attention to detail like the coffee bar stocked with cream and coffee!
We are already talking about our next stay!
