We were so impressed with this place. Super clean and spacious. Can’t wait to book it again the next time we come to Athens. We know refer to it affectionately as our Mountain House.

Exceptional rental

This is an exceptional rental. We rented over the Christmas holiday for a family get together. We could not have been more pleased with the property and the hosts. We have a daughter that lives in Athens and every year we try to have a family get together for the Christmas holidays. In the past the Athens rentals that would fulfill our needs have been limited in availability as well as size to fit our family 6 adults and four grandchildren. Manyntimes we default to a hotel or settle on Logan (hocking hill) . Luckily I found this gem in October. The house is modern, has ample space, bedrooms and baths and a spacious family room. The kitchen is just the right size and well laced out. All the appliances worked well. In additional the owners recently added a home theater room in the basement ( although I never figured out how to work the home theater control, this was quickly resolved with the help of two ten year olds) besides the multiple bedrooms, There is a bunk bed room where my four grandchildren sleep (they enjoyed the bunk bed room as well as the basement with its games and home theater) . The owners were particularly helpful and accommodating and checked in via email on how things were going. The hot tub was also a hit. The location is close enough to downtown Athens for shopping etc Overall this was in our top rental category of the over 20-25 rentals we have secured over the years. We hope to rent this property again if it is available.

Great location

This was our second stay in this house with our group of friends and we had such a wonderful time, yet again! The new movie room was great for the kiddos and the hot tub was so relaxing. There is a lot to explore on the property itself, and we also drove a few miles down the road to Strouds run beach to do some exploring as well. Definitely recommend this house if your looking for a group get away!
