About this cottage rental
Creekside Cottage is a quiet, private gem nestled in the Appalachian foothills in a wooded country setting, yet only a 5 minute drive to Ohio University. It has a fully equipped kitchen, large deck with porch swing and outdoor furniture, fire pit, and hot tub. Bedrooms (one with a full bed, one with two twins, one with one twin bed) are equipped with quality mattresses and classic bedding. All linens are provided. Tastefully decorated, you'll find an extensive library of classic novels, historical biographies, photo illustrations, etc. AC and furnace will keep you comfortable no matter the season. Hot tub for relaxing at night and watching stars, or for that first cup of coffee in the morning. We think the surrounding beauty and nature's songs will take guests away from a hectic world for a short time. Cable and Wi-Fi are available. Cell phone reception varies; most guests find they can get an adequate signal.
Experience a historical college town and all it has to offer, and return to peaceful solitude, a comfortable bed, sounds of nature, and the simple comfort of a good nights sleep. Travelers will find this a delight!
Pets are welcome with a $25 fee. UNDISCLOSED PETS WILL INCUR A $100 FEE PER PET, PER NIGHT.
This is positively a NO TOBACCO environment beyond the fire pit and parking areas!

Great place. We liked how it was close to OU but still felt like the place was secluded.

A wonderful place to stay in Athens, close enough to the school and the parks!

It had been cleaned. There were a lot of cool old books, odds n ends, and one very large wolf spider, and very old furnature! It's definitely in the woods! Think rustic camping cabin, but with heat and electricity. I don't mind all of that, and even the huge wolf spider was a story to leave with, but my biggest complaint is that it smelled very moldy and musty. Enough to make all of our noses get stuffed up. It was hard to tolerate.
