Immaculate and perfect for our much needed break.

It's truly the best place we have ever stayed, for the price, size and amenities. All of the little touches were great, as well. We recommended to family and friends before we even left. We will be back, for sure.

Cozy and peaceful

Loved our stay at the Carriage House! It was so pretty, clean, cozy, and just right for a long weekend mother daughter trip! The only thing I would suggest for future guests is to add the hot tub is shared between the properties. We did not feel comfortable going to the other house to access it as it was so close to the other home. We appreciated the quick response and assistance to access hot water, along with the follow up the next morning. Thank you so much!

Great property

Everything was great thanks. Only suggestion is that the bushes on the way out the driveway make it hard to see if people are coming on the sidewalk from the right. Thanks for the great stay.

Out stay at this property was great! Place was super clean and everyone was very friendly! The house itself is super nice on the inside, very charming with all the wood paneling. Only thing I will say is that the mattress on the first floor was a little worn but overall this stay was Amazing!

Perfect Bike Trail Access

We were here primarily for a biking experience and it did not disappoint. Quiet, clean , very nice space. We cooked some of our meals and ate at some local places for others. It was nice to be able to walk or bike to the places we wanted to go. It was a bonus to have a garage to park our bikes and car in.

Beautiful Getaway Home

Everything about the stay was peaceful and easy going from the check in to check out. Check in literally took 5 minutes with the clerk giving details on activities nearby and the best restaurants around to try. The house was very welcoming with all of the greeting signs and everything needed for a comfy relaxed stay was provided. Location was good for traveling to Athens and Hocking Hills. The only minor issue we ran into was the temperature of the jacuzzi never adjusted to a hotter temperature. Thank you for providing us with a comfortable and lovely stay.

Lovely

The property was very nice and clean. Very accurate according to the photos and description. Didn't have that musty smell. I would stay here again. The check-in woman was VERY friendly. She informed us of all the local hot spots and trails that were her favorites, etc. I wasn't expecting that, so it was a pleasant surprise.

Hocking Hills experience

The property was just as the pictures stated it was. Just a few minor things that need to be addressed like the locks needs to be fixed or changed, and the door leading upstairs has a gash at the top of it like it’s been hit. No washer/dryer in the place. But very nice spot to relax. Would stay here again.

Nestled in Nelsonville

Property was exactly how it was listed. Pretty quite for location being in town and behind a Bed and Breakfast. Very clean! Only reason I did not give it a five start rating was because hot tub and parking are shared with the Bed and Breakfast. Little walk to hot tub and If you book a weekend where they are busy you might not get to park by the house. Have to park on the street and walk back the driveway because Bed and Breakfast guest take up the parking.

Tube a rama girls trip

The communication ahead of the trip was prompt and very attentive, until check in. I did not understand that we were going to the Business for the Key. We arrived and left thinking something was wrong only to have to circle back 10 minutes later. Perhaps this could be clarified in the communications. Place was very clean and tidy, comfortable! ** Significant Earwig bug problem. ALL OVER and even In the couches!

Overall satisfactory with a few disappointments

We enjoyed our stay. We were disappointed by the hot tub, slightly dirty with some broken features. The clamp holding up the shower head in one of the bathrooms was broken. A couple things on the listing amenities are not available. So a touch of false advertising we felt. But overall we did have a nice stay and made the most of it.

Great little home for a getaway

Our daughter picked this cute little place to spend her 21st birthday. Nice place. Very accommodating. Only thing, if you run hot, this might not be the place for you. Only window air conditioners and in 90 degree heat, it doesn’t do well. Oh and the locks on both doors weren’t very stable. Kept messing up and wouldn’t line up. But in this great state, we can carry. So I wasn’t too worried.
