Athens, OH, United States
About
Escape to our charming guest house on a Tranquil Athens Homestead Welcome to our charming guest house at Myers Meadows, a serene retreat where you can leave the worries of everyday life behind and immerse yourself in a peaceful vacation in beautiful Athens, Ohio

Good to know
As you enter through the gate and drive up the picturesque apple and oak tree-lined driveway, our friendly barn cats and Ginny hens (who keep their distance) will be there to greet you. The guest house welcomes you with an inviting covered porch and a convenient private parking space right in front. Step inside and discover a cozy and modern living room adorned with comfortable furniture, a dining table, and a wall-mounted Roku big-screen TV, providing the perfect space to unwind after a day of exploring the outdoors. The gourmet kitchen is a delight, featuring elegant granite countertops, a commercial-grade range, a fridge, a high island, multiple prep sinks, and breathtaking views that make cleanup a breeze. The downstairs bathroom offers a touch of luxury with a spacious walk-in shower and a wall of glass block windows that flood the room with natural light. Upstairs, you'll find two bedrooms with queen beds, adorned with fantastic picture windows that offer scenic views. One of the bedrooms also includes a dedicated guest workspace and a cozy sitting area, where you can savor the tranquility of a quiet morning with a cup of coffee and a good book. Please note that the bedrooms are private but have a passthrough at the ceiling, so they are not completely soundproof. The property itself is a haven of beauty, featuring various fruit trees, bushes, and flowers that you are welcome to explore and enjoy. We've also created an outdoor hangout space with a fire pit, perfect for basking in the sunshine during the day or marveling at the stunning night skies that Ohio has to offer. Additionally, there is a gas grill and an outdoor dining area for your convenience. We love pets and have dedicated a large fenced-in meadow for your furry friends to frolic and play during their stay. However, please keep your pets on a leash while exploring the rest of the homestead due to other animals on the property. Please note that we charge a nightly per pet fee of $30. Conveniently located, our guest house provides easy access to Athens and OU, both just 15 minutes away. You'll also find an array of hiking options nearby, including Strouds Run State Park, Zaleski State Forest, and Lake Hope, all within a 20-30 minute drive. For a scenic adventure, take the lovely drive down Route 56 to Hocking Hills State Park, located just under an hour away. A short 5-minute drive down the road will lead you to the town of Albany, where you can find essential amenities and savor a cup of locally roasted coffee at Three Folds Roasters. Please note that while we moved into the main residence in July 2022, we may be working on the farm during your stay. Rest assured, we'll do our best to ensure that your stay is not disrupted. We're more than happy to chat with you about our work or offer recommendations for things to do in the area. However, if you prefer privacy, we'll respect your wishes with a simple hello. We eagerly await the opportunity to host you at Myers Meadows, where we're confident you'll fall in love with everything our guest house has to offer!

Getting around the area is most convenient by car, with easy access to Athens and Albany. However, there are also limited bus routes and scooter ride-share programs available in Athens. The city of Athens is bike-friendly with designated bike lanes throughout the city and a bike path along the Hocking River. For those who prefer ride-share services, Uber and Lyft are also available, but not at all hours like in larger cities.
