Kid-friendly holiday rentals 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.

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!

Great house and host! The kitchen is nicely stocked and the convenience of in home laundry was nice! Definitely recommend this home!

We were just passing through on a long drive but it was a great place to stay! The goats across the street were really cute too

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.

Excellent location if you want to get away and enjoy a little peace and quiet. The house is stocked with more than what you would expect and there are many extra little touches that make your stay special. Holly is very responsive. We really enjoyed our stay will return I'm sure!

Perfect place tucked away super comfortable

The house is beautiful- high ceilings, natural woodwork … really a beautiful example of rural Italianate. Large workable kitchen… we did light snacks after Saturday’s performance at Stuart’s Opera House and made Mother’s Day Breakfast the next morning. There was a large selection of pots and pans but I would recommend if there is a specific type of pan you need that you ask beforehand. Refrigerator is large and newer… plenty of space for drinks, snacks, dinner ingredients, etc. I did not notice an ice maker but there was a upopened bag of ice in freezer. There are dollar stores nearby and larger big box stores in Logan or Athens if you need something after you arrive. Mattresses were comfortable and the upstairs windows have room darkening shades. The driveway is a bit tight if you have a larger SUV but there is plenty of parking on the street if need be.

Great place to stay, quick drive or walk to uptown Athens and the place was clean and well equipped. I didn't get to try dinner at the downstairs restaurant, but my partner and I did get some deserts there which were excellent. The restaurant was closed by 8:30 so there were no issues with noise.

We had a great stay in Studio A in Athens! The space was so clean and cozy, and we appreciated being so close to uptown while also tucked away. It was so easy to walk to everything! In college, I lived just a block or so away on Union St., so walking up Union from Studio A brought back a lot of warm memories. Though we never needed any assistance from Greg and Jana, they were excellent in communicating, welcoming us to Athens, sharing clear check-in instructions and checking in during our stay to see if we needed any help with anything.

Spacious enough for one or two people. I usually stay far away from anyone, but being behind their house really wasn't an issue. 20 minutes outside Athens. Check out the nearby rural grocery store, which still has a non-electronic gas pump!

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 :)

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.

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!

Very cute place at a good location in a nice city

Overall a great stay. Area was peaceful and the river overlook was beautiful. Checkin/checkout was pretty easy. Only downsides was the bathroom - 1.5ba for 10 people required some coordination!

Katie’s place was absolutely wonderful! We’ve actually never felt more at home in an Airbnb. It was very clean, safe and decorated beautifully. The location was also very central and walkable to everything downtown. If we’re ever in town again, we would absolutely stay here again. Thank you so much again, Katie!

What a great place - super convenient to Ohio University and Uptown Athens. Five of us stayed comfortably, we enjoyed watching TV in the living room and playing games at the dining room table. We were Uptown in less than 5 minutes. We also loved the use of the garage.

We had an amazing stay at Ashleys! We were here to celebrate a graduation and it was the perfect stay. The place was spacious, clean, and very close to uptown. We will definitely be back, we loved it!

The apartment was spacious, very clean, and had extra towels and blankets. Angie gave very clear instructions, was friendly, and super responsive on all communication.

The house is in the middle of Athens, Ohio, a significant college town, and its location in proximity to Ohio U is phenomenal. We've stayed here several times and always felt lucky to have such a well-appointed home that is walkable to most of campus and Court Street. Ashley is an excellent host and the house is clean and updated on both levels.

We've stayed here many times. It's our go to place when we are in Athens

The room was spacious and beautifully decorated, with all the amenities I could possibly need for a comfortable stay. The loft was quit and had a restaurant located on sight. I would definitely recommend and will stay again soon.
