Cabin in Athens

Athens 2bd cabin &hot tub @Mt.Nebo/Ohio University

SteveRating, 5 stars1 week ago

We had a wonderful and relaxing long weekend. The cabin was spotless and very welcoming and comfortable. Sarah responded almost immediately when we had questions. She was also good about informing us of things that might affect our stay. Her husband came immediately when we had a question about the hot tub. We could not have asked for better hosts! We have already booked the cabin again for this fall.

Dove Cottage Forest Retreat

DeanRating, 5 stars1 week ago

My brothers and I were in the area over Memorial weekend on our motorcycles to ride The Windy Nine motorcycle roads. This location was perfect, just outside of Athens but not too far. Quaint little cabin in the woods the also offered cover for our bikes to keep them from collecting morning dew. This small cottage offered everything we needed but bot too fancy. The only caution is finding the driveway on the initial arrival can be a bit tricky especially on motorcycles as the winding road that leads to the cottage is not too U-turn friendly for motorcycles. Overall, awesome place and we will be back!

James and the other hosts at the Little Fish house were incredible! The house was perfect for my bachelorette weekend. It had plenty of space and bathrooms and it was located on the property of the adorable Little Fish Brewing Co. We went to the brewery for dinner Saturday night and had some really delicious pizza and drinks. 10/10 would recommend. Thank you again for making it a memorable weekend 💕
