Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Athens

The home was very cozy and great for a private getaway. Proximity to the highway made getting to the National Forrest and the nearby towns very easy.

Our stay was perfect. The house is prettier in person than in the pictures! (And the pictures are great) It was private, clean and peaceful. We would love to come stay again.

Really enjoyed peaceful environment Everything looks as shown in picture My family really enjoyed Outdoor stuff were good enough for us to do bbq/fire and playing basketball as well…… Thank you

We stayed here for our son's graduation from OU. The house was clean and well stocked, including spring water and coffee/creamers available. It was a quick ride back to campus. Overall, we were very satisfied with the experience.

Tammy’s home was great! The place was clean and had so many thoughtful amenities. Location was perfect distance from town and from hiking at the park! Would definitely come back!

If you like historic homes that still feature modern comforts, this is the place! Tug's 125 year old historic home features original woodwork, transom windows, and doors/door hardware, but also has air conditioning (we visited in June), dishwasher/microwave, comfortable beds, etc. It really is the best of both worlds. Tug is very friendly and helpful about local recommendations and the history of the house; we appreciated his assistance! We very much hope to return!

awesome stay we really enjoyed the quite atmosphere a plus was the metal roof love when it rains and you get the sound of rain on the roof...recommend 100%

I was feeling experience. It was really nice that everything was very organized/clean / presentable. I had a really good stay, especially since they were so easy to communicate with while we were there. 10 out of 10 experience.

Syd was so considerate as to meet us with an umbrella because it was raining when we arrived! She is truly a delight and a great host. Her space is homey and welcoming. We would love to stay again :)

My husband and I stayed at Idyll Reserve 5 (The North) for two nights in January and had a fabulous stay! 🌲❄️ The cabin was thoughtfully designed, tastefully decorated, and very spacious for the two of us (& could accommodate a small family easily). It had all the amenities you’d need for a cozy stay — spacious, fully-stocked kitchen (with coffee & espresso maker! ☕️), comfy couch, living room with large windows & beautiful views of the surrounding woods, walk-in double shower & soaking tub, and our personal favorites — the outdoor hot tub and sauna! Laura was extremely responsive and communication regarding check-in was the best I’ve had with an Airbnb host. We could have easily stayed several more days. Hocking Hills State Park is just a ~10 minute drive away (we did some gorgeous hiking to Ash Cave, Old Man’s Cave, and Cedar Falls all within a half day). We’re already planning our next trip back with our kids! 🥰

Came through for just one night while hiking in the area and found this gem! Jeff and Nicci were great hosts and super nice. The view was beautiful and serene.

I would highly recommend this to anyone! This place was phenomenal and quiet and peaceful. Christine and Matt went beyond what anyone would expect. A lot of extra’s that you would not expect, like smores for the fire out back, snacks and drinks, a cheesecake, tooth paste, body wash, shampoo and conditioner. Extremely clean, extra blankets, pillows, robes, many towels, this place is extra clean, quiet. There is a hot tub, and a fire pit for the relaxing evenings. We will return without hesitation. Thank you Matt and Christine you two are the best, and very appreciated more than you know. Thank you again.

Hosts Brenda and Deborah were extremely warm, welcoming, and flexible! We were on a short trip for a graduation at Ohio University, about 12 minutes away. Due to delayed flights and 1.5 hour drive from Columbus Airport, we didn't arrive until 10:30pm, and Deb was waiting on the porch to greet us and get us settled. Very much appreciated! Communication was great, including directions (by phone) re: the country roads in the dark. The space is large, as described and seen in photos, sort of a "basement apartment" in a gorgeous area, very peaceful. The place and hosts are down-to-earth, as we had hoped, making our stay lovely and enjoyable. 😊 Thank you!

We had a wonderful time at Gretchen’s place in Athens! It was private, comfortable, and beautiful inside and outside. We loved the natural light and the amazing wraparound porch. Highly recommend!

What a wonderful retreat! I stayed by myself as a little momma get away and it was perfect. The Zucchini bread is as good as everyone says! The hot tub was wonderful! The hosts were extremely responsive whenever I needed anything and really helpful! There are even games and toys for kids/toddlers if that is what you’re doing. I of course was vacationing FROM the kids toys lol but I love that if we go back there are things for the kids. Be advised that this is a basement apartment so you’ll hear footsteps and sometimes muffled voices just like you would in any house. It didnt bother me at all! The views are spectacular and the property is just so peaceful. 10/10 would recommend for sure!!

Jenny responded immediately to any questions and the stay was just as advertised. Very cute location and squeaky clean. Thank you and will look forward to staying again when the next horse show happens in the fall!

I really like the cabin.everything was amazing

The Nest was the perfect getaway for our anniversary! The place was clean and looked like described in listing. We felt right at home and enjoyed our stay!

This cabin was absolutely perfect! Tucked away in beautiful Hocking Hills, it was the ideal mix of cozy, clean, and peaceful. The hosts went above and beyond—thoughtful touches everywhere, quick responses, and genuine hospitality. We didn’t want to leave and can’t wait to come back!

We had a great stay! We loved the location and vibe of the place. The check in and checkout process was smooth and easy. The place was clean and nicely decorated. We will be recommending this place to others!

We loved everything about our stay! The cabin was super clean, decorated nicely, and the location was great. We’ve never stayed at an air bnb that offered so many complimentary snacks/drinks so that was great especially for the kiddos!! We’ll definitely look to book this again the next time we visit the area.
