House was exactly as described and was perfect for our stay. I was surprised to find a drawer stocked with coffee basics and even a few oatmeal packs for a quick breakfast. There is an extra coffee maker if you prefer to bring your own coffe. I appreciated all the outdoor lighting.

Everything you need with a little charming influence of Athens as well. We enjoyed the fire pit and cornhole boards as well as the quiet neighborhood overlooking Athens.

Gravel driveway and surrounding yard was well maintained. Entry into the home was easy and the interior was immaculate. Very impressed with the details of this cozy cabin. Even down to the fantastic towels. Kitchen, including the refrigerator, and the bathrooms were spotless. Would not hesitate to stay here again when visiting Athens.

Karl and Eileen thought of everything! From providing plenty of fluffy towels, several cozy throw blankets, the best stocked coffee/tea bar I've ever experienced in a rental, a washer and dryer for our Bobcat to do her laundry for free (she was thrilled!), fun ice cube trays along with stocked ice containers, a filtered water pitcher, extra wood for the adorable firepit area, indoor and outdoor games, so many great books -- I could go on and on!

Great cozy cabin near Ohio University and Athens

We had a great stay on a cold snowy weekend. The owners were great at communicating, and were very flexible with our situation, which I really appreciate. The cabin was well-stocked with coffee/tea/hot chocolate, and the laundry and fire pit with wood were nice bonuses. Would definitely stay again.

We enjoyed the nature, a bonfire, the vista on the ridge. The kitchen was well stocked. The living room was comfortable but an upgrade on the lounge chair and better lighting for reading would be good. The bathroom and shower seemed updated and good condition. We used the bedroom with the 2 single beds but one of the beds squeaked, annoying.

Exactly what we hoped!

The cabin was clean, check-in easy, and Karl and Eileen were responsive communicators. Stayed here with two friends and we enjoyed the kitchen, tv, fire pit and firewood, picnic table outside and a secluded yard. Was perfect for a few days away.

Mom's Weekend

This cabin was a great place to stay. It was nice to be able to spend time with our daughter, and still see the campus. It was very crowded on campus so we decided to stay in on Saturday night, had a fire and played games. I would definitely stay at this cabin again.

Quiet Getaway

Terrific place for a quiet getaway but close enough to town if you need something or don't feel like cooking. Very clean with the best drink station (coffee, tea, cocoa) in anyplace we have stayed. Yard games outside were fun to have. Would recommend to others for a secluded relaxing getaway but with all the comforts of home.
