About this cottage rental

Creekside Cottage is a quiet, private gem nestled in the Appalachian foothills in a wooded country setting, yet only a 5 minute drive to Ohio University. It has a fully equipped kitchen, large deck with porch swing and outdoor furniture, fire pit, and hot tub. Bedrooms (one with a full bed, one with two twins, one with one twin bed) are equipped with quality mattresses and classic bedding. All linens are provided. Tastefully decorated, you'll find an extensive library of classic novels, historical biographies, photo illustrations, etc. AC and furnace will keep you comfortable no matter the season. Hot tub for relaxing at night and watching stars, or for that first cup of coffee in the morning. We think the surrounding beauty and nature's songs will take guests away from a hectic world for a short time. Cable and Wi-Fi are available. Cell phone reception varies; most guests find they can get an adequate signal.
Experience a historical college town and all it has to offer, and return to peaceful solitude, a comfortable bed, sounds of nature, and the simple comfort of a good nights sleep. Travelers will find this a delight!
Pets are welcome with a $25 fee. UNDISCLOSED PETS WILL INCUR A $100 FEE PER PET, PER NIGHT.
This is positively a NO TOBACCO environment beyond the fire pit and parking areas!
Our base rate covers two guests; additional guests are $25 per night, per guest, maximum 5 guests. Our base rate covers two guests; additional guests are $25/guest/night. UNDISCLOSED GUESTS WILL INCUR A $100 FEE PER GUEST, PER NIGHT.

We had a wonderfully peaceful time. It is close to town but feels forever away. We will be back!
8 / 10Excellent·May 2026
This is a terrific place with a few things that keep it from being perfect. The most blaring issue is the kitchen. Like most places the amount of equipment is a little uneven, but everything was clean and in good repair, but there wasn't a good flipper for eggs for example. The kitchen table is also not the greatest. Again, it's clean but it's a little rickety. I did mention this to the host directly via email so it may be something that has been addressed.The location is great! The place has attitude and charm for days! The host was very available and communicative if needed.Overall we had a great experience!

We had an excellent stay at a quaint, well thought out cottage that was fully equipped for our needs.
6 / 10Average·Oct 2025
The cabin has a strange odor and the bathroom smelled very bad after the first day. My husband could not use the queen bed because it Is against A wall on both sides . You have to crawl in from the bottom. He used the bottom bunk and the foam padding kept sliding off when he got up during the night. We had to charge the tv remote and figure out how to turn the tv on at the back of it because the remote would not turn it on. We did like the setting. Very peaceful.
