A rare find ... beautiful, comfortable, affordable and only an hour's drive from home!

What a wonderful weekend at Branch Hill Cabin! It was perfect for our group of 12. The Estate is simply beautiful and we enjoyed time on both the front porch and rear deck, as well as the upstairs deck. Such a serene setting for morning coffee and quiet moments at the pond. The house was clean, the furniture/beds comfy and overall the cabin was just so welcoming. We loved the big dining room table where we could all sit together for meals and playing board/card games. From our initial contact to our actual stay, the staff were quick to respond whenever we emailed or called. We would definitely return to this lovely home for another relaxing and fun weekend next year!

One week family vacation for a party of 10

This is a great family home to unwind and spend time together as a family. The great firepit, hottub, ample games, large kitchen, large table and comfy beds makes this a great place to stay. The farm animals and friendly owners are icing on the top. We even got to see baby pigs at 2 hours old!

This home was very comfortable and decorated so nicely! The space was extra clean and well kept! The in-like listing was very accurate and we were not disappointed in any way. The kitchen was well stocked and the owners went out of their way to make us feel welcomed! They even left little goodie bags on our beds! We would definitely stay again!

Beautiful log cabin for family getaway!

We could not have been more pleased with our stay at this gorgeous property! We were surprised at every turn by how well appointed the cabin was- the owners thought of everything. We had 10 family members for a Thanksgiving retreat and from kitchen supplies to ample games, everything we needed for a wonderful holiday time together was at the ready. The property is beautiful. We enjoyed visiting with the animals in the barn, the owners were so gracious to share the stories of their rescue animals with us and we even got to see the farms turkeys on Thanksgiving. Would definitely love to come back to this beautiful property, any time of the year- a true gem!

Tremendous!

Great country feel, yet close to stores and attractions. We had more than enough room to stretch out with our group of 12, including 4 energetic kids between 4 - 9. Kitchen, dining area, decks, fire pit were great. The air hockey, arcade game and pool table were used by all more than we expected. The farm is somewhat understated in the listing; it was way more impressive than advertised. Our 9 year-old granddaughter wants to come back just for the animals! The lack of on-site management could make dealing with any glitches a little wonky, but we didn't have any, so our stay was very enjoyable.

Family Thanksgiving Retreat

My husband and I flew from California to spend Thanksgiving week with both of our daughters and their families, as well as my sister who lives in Cincinnati. We were delighted to find such a comfortable, cozy cabin to share with our family for the week. The cabin has been tastefully updated and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Also, it is very conveniently located to everything we wanted to do, while providing us with a peaceful, retreat-like setting. The owners, Jessica and Derek, were great and easy to work with. They invited our grandchildren and us up to their barn to meet, feed and visit with their animals--many of which are rescues. This was definitely a highlight! We look forward to returning next year! Thank-you Jessica and Derek for providing such a wonderful home for our family gathering!

Cabin loved by all in our family

We were in the area for college visits for my daughter. We travelled with three adolescent kids. We choose this property for its location to the schools and the pool table, hot tub, air hockey, and other games. The cabin was true to its description and was clean. The owners lived next door but kept to themselves. The barn was nearby along with the animals but we heard no noise or smelled no manure. The cabin was loved by all, especially the pool table. The only problem (which was beyond the control of the owners) was that our stay was scheduled during the Covid-19 pandemic. While we were traveling, all of the colleges closed and Ohio basically shut down. With no restaurants open and bare shelves and the grocery stores, we decided to head home early. After this passes, we will reschedule our visits and would definitely stay at this property again.

Branch Hill Delights Again

Our group of tennis fanatics have stayed numerous times at Branch Hill on our annual Cincy Tennis excursions and keep coming back. This time we got special treatment from all the animals: donkeys and the affectionate kitty on the front porch, horses galloping and ducks floating by as we hung out around the pond. The cabin is so comfortable and accommodated our 13 perfectly. We definitely plan to return (the dozen fresh eggs in the fridge are always an added bonus).

Combined Family Vacation

My husband and I along with our two daughters and their families gathered at the Branch Hill Cabin for a week together. We love that the cabin comfortably houses the three adult couples and our 7 grandchildren. The spacious and well-appointed kitchen, large dining table and bar made cooking and eating meals together easy. The open floor plan that included the huge and comfortable couch allowed us all to hang out together while some were lounging, others reading, playing cards, and playing pool. We used the pool table and arcade games quite a bit. The kids (and some of their parents) would probably say their favorite thing was the pond--swimming off the dock and paddle boarding. Everyone enjoyed the farm animals, espcially getting up close during the farm tour. The beautiful scenery, the feeling that you are out in the country is so relaxing. At the same time we were only minutes away from the shops and bike trail at Loveland and Kings Island. This was our second time staying at the cabin and probably won't be our last!

Great stay at Branch Hill Cabin! The grandkids loved the sleeping quarters in the loft. We enjoyed the beautiful horses and all the barnyard animals on the property. The catch and release fishing pond was a real hit. Thank you for a hosting our family.

Family getaway

The property/cabin is beautiful however, the upstairs balconies both are so loose I was afraid to allow the small grand children out there. For what I paid I expected the cleanliness to be immaculate however that wasn’t the case the vents are all dust covered, all around the logs hadn’t been cleaned in some time, the bathroom in between bedroom 1 and 2 needs the shower door cleaned and the faucets on the sink, bedroom 1 the door doesn’t latch and you cannot lock it which was an issue when you have little kids around. The kitchen cabinet where the pans are kept was filthy so I went out and bought disposable pans to use during our stay. This is a beautiful home it just needs some maintenance work to prevent any injuries on those balconies and the upstairs tub has zero water pressure when both faucets are turned on as high as they’ll go it’s just a trickle of water which made using the tub impossible unless you wanted to wait hours for it to fill up. I was also disappointed that when I opened the bathroom blind I saw other houses in the subdivision which meant the blind had to stay shut and the feeling of being in a cabin in nature was taken away. Again, a beautiful cabin it just needs maintenance and a cleaning.

Our favorite Staycation Spot!

This is a family favorite and appeals to everyone one, from kids to grown ups. You do feel like you have a luxury experience in a farm setting. We cook most of our meals in the kitchen and its better than my set up at home. Plenty of beds and space to spread out. You do not feel confined even if the weather is bad. We play board games, get in the hot tub, walk around the property, play pool, sit on the swing and watch the animals, and more. No one ever says they are bored and the kids stay away from electronics and are having fun which to me is a huge win! The animals right outside your door are a huge draw and probably the highlight. We try to be out as much as we can watching them. Love love love this place!
