The hosts were easy to contact and answered all of our questions in a timely fashion. Despite being out the country, cell service was fantastic. The rooms were clean and well thought out. We made a lovely breakfast from the ingredients provided and loved going to see the pigs. I would absolutely recommend this property to someone looking for a nice getaway with friends and family.
Property wofked great for our group! We had members of four families that have gotten together each year for a group motorcycle vacation. We had a grest time.
The property is absolutely beautiful, the owners are very gracious. It can be a little hard to find at first, but they give good directions. My friends and I are all saying how we would love to book this BB again for other occasions! 10/10 would definitely recommend!
We were in Athens for moms weekend and lucked out to be able book here due to a cancellation. We had a wonderful time. We enjoyed the hot tub, all the fixings for breakfast one morning, the hot water that was endless . We loved being able to have 6 of all together without being crowded but still being able to all share in the conversation and fun. The house and everything was as described in the listing. We will definitely be back.
We had a group reunion at this beautiful, welcoming space, and it was perfect. Barb and Paul are tremendously warm, and made sure that we had all the tasty things we needed for our stay. We all enjoyed wandering the farm, steeping in the hot tub, cooking group meals in the big kitchen, swapping stories around the fire pit, and taking in the rustling of the leaves as we sat on the back porch. This is a wonderful space that we deeply enjoyed, and we look forward to returning!
Overall we were impressed with the house and area. It was very isolated which was nice. Enjoyed not having a TV for a week. Really the only complaint was the bed and breakfast advertising. Our impression was we would get farm fresh food every morning for breakfast. I didn't mind buying other meat from Paul, which was really good, but others with us who were splitting the cost were not happy with the breakfast situation. The top rack on the dishwasher was broken, so it was hard using it but we did.
This place is so thoughtfully prepared! It is a very rural setting on a working farm. Very private, quiet place to relax, reflect. Very clean home, thoughtfully prepared. Small gift items to purchase, if you choose. You will have everything you can possibly need here! The fridge is stocked with eggs, milk, sausage and bacon for breakfast. They also had some fruit, real maple syrup and almond milk which was really unexpected and appreciated so much since I am vegetarian. Paul very kind, friendly gentleman. I wish I had more time to enjoy this lovely place, but will return!
Outstanding Property for those visiting Athens / Ohio U.
This property worked out perfectly for our extended family while we were visiting our daughter at Ohio University. Paul, the owner, gave us an outstanding history of the property and some of their farm endeavors.
challenging roads. some beautiful roads. The Windy Nine set of roads was well worth the trip. Great location but a little challenging getting in and out of the rental. Fantastic stay. Enjoyed the rental every night when we came back. Grilling, fires, quiet nights. Just the relaxing needed after our rides each day.
The pictures do not do this estate justice. It was a bit off the grid and I was worried after I read that there was no televisions but we worked on a puzzle, made videos, wandered the farm and had fashion shows. I learned so much about my children and grandchildren. Thanks for the experience.
Beautiful little country, wooded home. The inside was quaint and clean. Loved all the farm goods, fresh bread, etc. left for us. Just stayed overnight in preparation for Athens marathon the next warning, and it was the perfect peaceful overnight resting spot.
My husband and I stayed on the farm for Mom's Weekend. My son and his girlfriend joined us one of our two nights, enjoying the opportunity to get off campus. They tested out the hot tub, took lots of photos and happily ate a home-cooked breakfast with the eggs and sausage supplied by the proprietors. The trip in and out from campus is tricky, especially at night, so we just packed up for the day and only slept at the farm. It was a lovely experience. We recommend it!
Great people. The view is spectacular. House is furnished with everything you need and feels like home. Canât say enough great things about it. Weâre booking for the third time!
We had an excellent weekend here! It's Homecoming for OU and we were able to enjoy our time in Athens beacuse this place had everything we needed. The kitchen/dining/living area was great for hanging out. The breakfast items they stocked were delicious! The beds were cozy and we really enjoyed relaxing on the deck enjoying the view of the woods. We're ready to come back next year!
Loved everything except the road in and out. We were on motorcycles and found it very challenging. The host, hostess, dogs, and all the amenities made for a great stay.
Such a cute little place! I stayed with a group of friends and we all had such a great time! The dogs were so friendly and greeted us when we arrived. Plenty of space and beautiful views off the back of the deck!
We have been working toward providing a comfortable space for individuals or groups to come enjoy this rural setting from the onset. We provide facilities for groups, workshops and family gatherings, as well as the solo traveler. We have been in the Athens area for over 25 years, and enjoy meeting travelers, as well as getting out to see the country ourselves.
The property is at the end of a county road about 9 country miles, or about 20 minutes, from the city of Athens. We love the seclusion and quiet. The farm is a work in progress, with various projects going on all through the year. We are happy to show you what we are up to, or just leave you alone, as you wish.
This is an off grid property, where we believe in sovereign living. It's nestled in a wonderful community with adventures at your fingertips including artist studios, wineries, and great local music venues.
