Escape to The Alibi Cabin — a private 17-acre sanctuary tucked into the rolling woods and meadows of Columbiana County, Ohio. Whether you`re planning a family reunion, a group getaway, or a quiet weekend, this is the kind of place people talk about for years.

Spend your days floating in the private in-ground pool, soaking in the hot tub as the sun sets over the meadow, or exploring two miles of wooded trails where deer and wildlife roam freely.

Evenings are best spent gathered around the fire pit, grilling out under the open sky, or settling into the great room beside the fireplace as the cabin comes alive around you.

Inside, the log cabin is as beautiful as it is comfortable — rustic décor, thoughtful details in every room, and spaces that feel genuinely cared for. Curl up in the cozy library nook with a good book, challenge the group to ping pong under the game room lights, or spread out across multiple living areas that make even large groups feel at home. A spacious pantry area gives everyone room to unpack and settle in like it`s your own place.

The Alibi Cabin comfortably sleeps up to 8 across multiple sleeping areas — a loft queen room, two lower level bedrooms, and spacious common areas. The fully equipped kitchen and dining space seat 8, and the game room keeps the energy going rain or shine. Two full bathrooms serve the group with ease.

Highlights:
• Private in-ground pool + hot tub
• 17 acres — woods, meadow, and 2 miles of walking trails
• Outdoor grill + fire pit
• Ping-pong, board games
• Cozy library nook
• Gas fireplace in great room
• Spacious pantry — plenty of room to unpack and settle in
• High-speed WiFi throughout

Grocery delivery available from Walmart in Salem. Local favorites include Your Pizza Shop in Minerva (delivers!) and The Spread Eagle Tavern — a hidden gem worth the short drive.

Located in the heart of eastern Ohio, with easy access to Guilford Lake fishing, the North Country Trail, and within 90 minutes of both Cleveland and Pittsburgh.

Pool open early May through September.

You have the entire cabin, private pool, and 17 acres to yourself.

We have always wanted a log cabin and in 2023 we made that dream a reality! We spent the next two years renovating, enjoying the peaceful area, and sharing the cabin with family and friends. We love the outdoors, hiking, and dining out!
