Beautiful property, pure tranquility and luxury spa accommodations!

I spent three nights in the Mardi Gras house just to get away from the city and life. I couldn’t have picked a better spot! Plenty of space to roam on the property, lots of interesting things to see, and the brew house/spa was an absolute delightful and surprising luxury! Salt room, sauna, then hot tub and I slept so well! I travel to this region for work and without a doubt, I’ll be staying at Steve’s from now on!

Mardi Gras Cabin

We were in the area for our daughter's masters degree graduation at Ohio University. Beautiful property. Wonderful theme and decorations. Very quiet. The sound of the birds was very enjoyable. The view of the night sky was very impressive. You can see many constellations and stars. Would recommend to family and friends. All in all, a wonderful stay.

Uncomfortable bed, cheap sheets

The bed was very uncomfortable. Sheets were old. Pillows were thin. The quilt in the bed seemed to be a hundred years old. Neither of us could sleep. And the hot tub is an outdoor walk away which we didn’t want to do late at night (while wet). A hot tub on the deck of the actual house we were in was what we wanted.

So much fun!

He is so friendly and welcoming! We had very open access to the property and amenities for our entire stay. Very nice and clean when we stayed. Keep in mind it was very tight with three people, especially in the kitchenette, and the grill was difficult to get working. We will definitely be staying again, the location was amazing for all the hiking we did!

OU Graduation

Beautiful location, easily accessible! Directions to location are spot on and very easy to find. Property is clean, tidy, very charming, and relaxing. Booked for my nieces graduation from OU and moving my daughter out of her dorm at OU. Host and groundskeeper very friendly. Answered all of our questions and made us feel like we were old friends even though we had never met. My son and I loved hiking/exploring the immediate grounds. Hot tub was a plus! Clean, hot, and a much added relaxing bonus! Will definitely consider booking again next year for my daughters graduation weekend from OU.

Cute Cabin, relaxing stay

We were in the area to do some hiking, the cabin is clean and tidy and had everything we needed for our stay. Very quiet, lovely woods just outside the door. My 16yo loved the loft.

Weekend Getaway

We are a middle aged couple who went to the Mardi Gras cabin to escape reality for a bit. We are celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary soon and traveling back to the Athens area, where it all began felt right. The cabin was clean, all the necessary amenities were provided. Bed was comfy and the shower hot. We used the communial hot tub and it was easy to get to and use. The cabin had everything we wanted and were very pleased.

Happy Dog Happy Life

My son, dog and I came out to escape the fireworks. We stayed at the Mardi Gras house and it was perfect. Quaint, cozy and had everything we needed. The property is beautiful and peaceful with the added bonus of a wonderful grounds keeper. Jason has a magnetic jovial personality that made our experience even better by sharing his bee keeping and plant knowledge with us. I would definitely recommend experiencing and exploring Morning Dew Hops Farm.

About the host

Host profile image

What makes this property unique

The quiet rural setting makes this the perfect spot for getting away from it all. Morning Dew Hop Farm also offers a hot tub, centrally located and available for the use of all guests at no extra charge, as well as a Himalayan salt cave and a wood-fired sauna (ask your host for rates.) Both cabins have a gas grill (propane is provided) and there's a fire pit for use by all guests. Cell service is extremely weak but both cabins include free WiFi. Snuggle up and watch a movie, enjoy a beautiful view of the stars, or explore our 23 acres of woods and farmland.
