The room was not very clean in that there were cobwebs over the bed. We slept on top of the blankets because we couldn’t bring ourselves to turn down the bed. Had the property not been so far off a main road after dark we would have left after arriving. We were unable to make it our first night and messaged the host. We checked out before we ever even hear back so communication isn’t great. Composting toilet is a no for us. Lots of directions to be able to pee and shower and wash hands. Now, with all that said, if you like the back woods and rustic luxury, this might be the place for you.

Took my first solo trip with just my dog and I to do some hiking/exploring. This was the perfect little getaway spot for us. It was very cozy and we loved exploring the property! We even hit up strouds run park and the beach which was only a 7 minute drive from the property! We definitely will be visiting again soon

Beautiful property, great host with very good communication, very cozy and a great place for a peaceful getaway. We got to explore the cave and pond a little bit but didn’t get to see the trails. I can’t wait to be back and check them out! Highly recommend!

Quiet retreat

We were attending a bluegrass festival nearby and the cottage served our needs perfectly. The location was near Athens, yet very remote and only 15 minutes from Poston Lake music venue.

Cozy Country Cabin

We adored the rolling hills and vast landscapes of SE Ohio, all the more thanks to the VRBO we stayed in. Chad was an excellent host, and any questions we had were answered promptly. We didn't get a chance to explore the grounds surrounding our cabin due to time but if we stay again we will! PLUS the chickens that live on the land are so cute :)

Im sure its great for the right situation

This little cabin, im sure would be great for someone coming to explore the 133 acres and have some time out in nature. It was fairly clean. The heat is space heaters and the ac is a window unit, and the TOILET IS COMPOSTING (I missed that detail in the description, and we were not ok with it....). Also, the hot water and the entire shower is a bit hard to understand, so we didnt take showers during our stay. The owner was very nice and easy to communicate with,.I think the description for this property could use a little more accuracy, but its not terrible. You just need to know what youre getting into before you come. I obviously didnt oay close enough attention.

Unhappy

It's was dirty. First thing we did was pull down the sheets & they had dog hair all over them. We didn't bring any pets. The toilet was like a porta potty. It was full & nasty. Overall it wasn't what we had expected.

Great place!

We stayed here while visiting our daughter at OU and were so pleased with the setting and the space. We’d definitely stay again! My only reason for 4 stars on check in was because of a mixup with another guest on the property, but we worked it out and all ended up great.
