About this property

"Ulysses" tiny cabin on the creek at Waldbaden

Stay in a truly unique, a studio tiny home style cabin with a porch view of the forest and creek, and 30 acres of woods, hills and wild life. Explore the trails and experience nature conveniently near the lively culture and arts town of Athens, Ohio, and Ohio University.

READ THIS BEFORE booking our cabin. The name of our campground is Waldbaden Acres. Waldbaden is German for 'forest bathing'. These cabins are in the forest and surrounded by trees, ponds, and all kinds of nature. If you want a cabin that is surrounded by a wide path of manicured lawn and large paved parking spaces, DO NOT choose us! There are many guests who really appreciate our rustic, and creative aesthetic that is nature immersive, but occasionally there are those who rent our place and realize too late that they have chosen to be closer to nature than they are comfortable with. It is really in everyone's best interest that people who are uncomfortable with sleeping in a cabin where nature is not an arm's length away, not book our accommodations.

PLEASE NOTE If you have challenges relating to mobility, we may not be the right place for you. The ground is often not level, and some of our steps are narrow to accommodate tight spaces.

Please feel free to walk the trails and see the nature, but also be aware that it is mostly untamed nature and that your exploration is at your own risk.

This cabin is cozy and comfortable with great nature views, especially from the porch.

** We keep our cabins clean and tidy. However, they are located in a forest, and occasionally, insects visit them. We do not use pesticides as the residual chemicals of using them are likely to cause harm to our guests and nature, where as the insects are not. Please be aware of this, as we do not offer refunds for the presence of nature.

*** Just a quick note—the nightly rate covers 2 guests. If you’ll have more than 2 people, please be sure to add the extra guest(s) when making your reservation. Thank you!
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Hosted by Evan Binkley

Host profile image
My family and I are artists. I'm originally from Ohio, and my wife is from Hong Kong. We lived in NYC, Hong Kong, and now Ohio. We also spend a lot of time in Hokkaido, Japan. We love culture, travel and most of all creating things. These cabins on this land is one of our dreams. We've poured our souls into building them from nothing. We really hope you enjoy them and the beautiful forested land, hills and rock formations that surround them.

Why they chose this property

Our location is a 10 minute drive from OU and uptown Athens, but it feels like you are far out in the wilderness. Quite unusually for Appalachian Ohio, there are all kinds of shopping, restaurants, and other amenities in town and around it. Biking, hiking, parks and cultural happenings are nearby. Live music happens in a variety of venues on an almost nightly basis. Athens has three micro breweries and the brewery Little Fish is almost at the end of our road. The Plains, which is also quite close, has some of the above as well.

What makes this property unique

Nature, comfort and unique design. This cabin is cozy and comfortable with great nature views, especially from the porch.
