Terms of Service.

Last updated: April 2026.

These terms govern your use of HockingRentals.com ("the site"). By accessing or using the site, you agree to these terms. If you disagree with any part of them, don't use the site.

Use of the site

HockingRentals.com is free to use for personal, non-commercial purposes. You may not scrape, mirror, or systematically copy the site's content. You may link to the site freely.

Intellectual property

All editorial content on HockingRentals.com — articles, guides, descriptions, photographs we created ourselves, and site design — is the property of Scout Theory and is protected by copyright. You may quote limited portions of the content for review, commentary, or reference purposes with attribution and a link back.

Editorial content, site design, and original photography created by HockingRentals.com remain the property of Scout Theory. Lodging operators retain ownership of their own names, descriptions, rates, availability, photos, and other property information.

Accuracy disclaimer

We work hard to keep content factually accurate, but we make no warranty that every detail is current or correct. Business hours change, trail policies change, legal interpretations evolve, and prices fluctuate. Always verify specifics — particularly operating hours, pet policies, legal requirements, and pricing — directly with the relevant source before you rely on them.

Not a booking agent

HockingRentals.com is an editorial guide and lead-matching service. We do not take payment for stays or become a party to a reservation. A traveler who connects with a lodging provider is responsible for reviewing that provider’s terms, pricing, cancellation policy, and property details before booking.

Commercial disclosure

We may be compensated by lodging operators for qualified leads, featured placement, monthly partnerships, or other commercial relationships. A paid relationship does not guarantee a booking or change the traveler’s obligation to verify property details directly with the provider.

Not legal advice

Content on this site — including pages discussing service animals, ADA compliance, Ohio state law, and short-term rental regulations — is editorial guidance, not legal advice. If you need legal advice for your specific situation, consult a licensed attorney familiar with the relevant jurisdiction.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Scout Theory and HockingRentals.com shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the site. We don't guarantee the site will be available at all times or free from errors.

External links

The site contains links to third-party websites. We're not responsible for the content, practices, or policies of those sites. Your use of linked sites is at your own risk.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, without regard to conflict of law principles.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after a revision constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
