My family was looking for an affordable property for a weekend getaway. There were fourteen teens/adults and one toddler. The property was ideal for us in most ways. It sits back off the road and is beautifully landscaped. There is a porch swing, a small patio off the back, as well as a firepit. The property is bordered by woods in the back, and we saw deer out the windows every day we were there.
The cabin is very nice and had comfortable seating in the living room. There is a lovely addition off the back of the house that has lots of windows, a large table that seats at least 10, and more comfortable sofas. These two living areas allowed our group to spread out. The kitchen is well-appointed with everything you need. We appreciated that trash bags, dish soap, and dishwasher detergent were provided.
There were two bedrooms with queens on the first floor, and a third, large bedroom on the second floor. There were three bedrooms in the basement: two with queen beds and one with two twins. All of the beds had what appeared to be new mattresses. We slept well.
As I said, this property was more affordable than most properties that accommodate a large group, and with that I'm ok with a couple quirks. There were only a couple drawbacks to this property for us. The bedrooms in the basement could use some updating. While the carpet was clean, it seemed old. The bedroom with the twin beds actually does not have carpeting at all. Some carpet or a nice big throw rug would make this bedroom cozier. There are only two bathrooms in this house, and one of them is in a basement bedroom. That is an unusual arrangement and a little inconvenient for a large group. As I said, though, all the beds were comfortable and we appreciated that there were six bedrooms for us to use.
This property is pretty close to The Wilds. We had intended to go there during the weekend but did not know that we needed to make advanced reservations. Instead we went to the Columbus zoo which was only an hour away. Salt Fork is also within 30-40 minutes. We ate at a couple good restaurants in Zanesville. We got delicious takeout from Tapas Caribbean Kitchen and had an enjoyable brunch on Sunday at Bryan Place.
We were very happy with our stay and would return in the future. We would recommend this home to anyone who wants a nice house on a beautiful piece of property for a relaxing weekend.
