Tiny "Topiary" cabin in the forest
Tiny "Topiary" cabin in the forest
Description
This cabin offers a 'glamping' experience vibe.: There is a shared shower house rather than an in cabin bathroom. It's a creative tiny home studio layout with a porch view of the forest, wildlife and hills on 30 acres. Explore trails along the creek and rock formations while being 10 minutes from the lively culture of Athens, and Ohio University. There is radiator heat and wall A/C. Please note that while there is a bed, you’ll need to bring your own sleeping bags/bedding and pillows. The space Our location is a 10 minute drive from OU and uptown Athens, but it feels like you are far out in the wilderness. Quite unusually for Appalachian Ohio, there are all kinds of shopping, restaurants, and other amenities in town and around it. Biking, hiking, parks and cultural happenings are nearby. Live music happens in a variety of venues on an almost nightly basis. Athens has three micro breweries and the brewery Little Fish is almost at the end of our road. The Plains, which is also quite close, has some of the above as well. 'Waldbaden', our name for the land where we have built cabins, is the German word(s) for 'forest bathing'. The concept behind 'forest bathing' is that the trees are therapeutic for mental and physical health. We are not experts in the practice of 'waldbaden' but we definitely find our bit of forest rejuvenating and we hope you do too. Please feel free to walk the trails and see the nature, but also be aware that it is mostly untamed nature and that your exploration is at your own risk. This cabin is cozy and comfortable with great nature views. Guest access You may explore the trails on our land, but please pay attention to the signs and realize you are doing so at your own risk. Other things to note The 'Topiary' cabin offers a rustic getaway experience! It uses the shared shower house located near the entrance (about a 2-minute walk) rather than an indoor bathroom. The cabin is kept comfortable with a radiator for heat and a wall AC for cooling. **Please remember to bring the following, as they are not provided for this unit: **Sleeping bags/bedding and pillows **Towels for the shower house We keep our cabins clean and tidy. However, they are located in a forest, and occasionally, insects visit them. We do not use pesticides as the residual chemicals of using them are likely to cause harm to our guests and nature, where as the insects are not. Please be aware of this, as we do not offer refunds for the presence of nature.
