Welcome to our little piece of paradise. We are secluded, but close to everything in downtown Portsmouth. Our guest house has a gas fireplace, full bath, and the loft. We welcome travelers from all walks of life and enjoy sharing our knowledge and Appalachian hospitality. Unwind with nature and beautiful views, relax in the hot tub under the stars, and enjoy nature. You will see a variety of wildlife in their natural habitat. The space Our property consists of 40+ acres . We also have an abundance of other animals you may encounter during your stay. We encourage you to enjoy our pool, it is shared with my family (husband and daughter). The pool house contains a loft with a queen pillow top mattress and a sectional couch on the ground floor. There is a full bath and kitchen, minus an oven/range. The gas grill is accessible to guests as well. Our pool house is ideal for 2 adults but can accommodate 3 providing someone sleeps on the sectional sofa. We provide towels and linens, pots and pans, basic pantry items, and a limited supply of toiletries. If you forget something and I can accommodate you I will. Please note that we do get some stink bugs especially in the fall and spring. It's a small sacrifice to enjoy the beautiful seclusion. We are life-long residents and proud to welcome you to our home and community. Guest access The pool house is a separate dwelling from our home. You will need to park in our driveway, generally in front of the detached garage. Then walk up the stairs and follow the lit path that will guide you to the pool house. If you are arriving after dark and need further instructions please let me know. Other things to note The wifi has been updated and streaming is available. We have 3 Great Danes that love meeting new people. If you or your traveling companions are afraid of dogs, our gentle giants may be intimidating. They are big babies. Please understand that they are part of our family before booking. The dogs do not have access to the pool house and are never permitted to go inside. The topography in Southern Ohio can't be truly appreciated if you don't have a bird's eye view. If you are staying with us for a special occasion, please us know so we can help accommodate your celebration.
