Great place to relax. Easy to find and very quiet, yet close to town. We plan on going to hocking hills in the summertime and would stay here again. Hopefully we will be able to check out the property (not the best weather when we stayed there).

Great spot
The apartment was great, very clean, nicely decorated, and comfortable. We loved the games and activities they had- my kids loved playing the hook and ring game, ladder ball and went fishing. The property was easy to find and only 20 minutes from Ash Cave. Unfortunately communication from the host was lacking. I didn’t receive check in instructions until a few hours after check in started, when I asked for them. I actually almost found a different place to stay because I wasn’t sure if our reservation was lost. We couldn’t find a WiFi password in the apartment or information anywhere and my request to the host for one didn’t get a response. There weren’t any check out instructions which is a first- I prefer to leave a place the way the hosts want (towels, dishes, sheets, etc). The missing communication was unusual and gave me some anxiety. Additionally be aware the mattresses are thin and I found them hard to sleep on. Overall it was a great place and I would recommend staying here (the pictures really don’t do it justice) but the lack of communication was unusual.
Quiet, just outside of town but close to attractions
This was a nice getaway, close to town but still country. The owners lived nearby and helpful. Yet it still felt like we had privacy. We fished and sat near the firepit. The apartment was clean and modern. We ate at local restaurants.
Water's Edge was a great find! I was in town for a short visit, and am glad I found this place! Very clean, quiet, and cozy for my stay. The place was well stocked with the necessities needed, and very quiet at night. Easy to find and close to the downtown area. I would highly recommend Waters Edge, and would stay at again!!!
Deep into the rural area and surrounded by a beautiful landscape. Plan a day-trip for tourist attractions and you won't be too far away from great food and views
Check in was easy, and the owners are on the property and available to help if needed. I had an issue with the drinking water, and the owner came over immediately and fixed it. They gave good directions otherwise I might have had a hard time finding the right place. WAZE doesn't quite get you there. Fully stocked kitchen if you want to cook there, nice towels, cozy bed, and some games to play with the kids. It's out of the way and quiet. The tap water isn't potable, likely due to the well, but a large jug of bottled water is available for drinking in the kitchen. Perfect size home for a small family.
From start to finish, we had an amazing time! Close enough to the Hocking Hills, cute small town too! The little suite was all as wonderful as advertised! Friendly host, clean, comfortable, and full of amenities. We will definitely stay here again when we’re back in the area!
Came into the area for the War-X OCR event in Thurman. Nikki's place was 38 minutes away from the venue, but it was a great find. The place is tucked away on their property with access to their pond, the property, and plenty of space for two people to sprawl out. Nikki and Jeff were very accommodating. The place is freshly remodeled, clean, and comfortable.
Born and raised within Vinton County, my husband Jeff will tell you that the best part of our area is the community. This area is filled with the friendliest and most down to earth people that Southeastern Ohio has to offer. We started opening some of our rental properties for others like you to experience this amazing area that we call home. We also love to travel! Our favorite place to go when we vacation is the western states. We have purchased a mid-bus and renovated it to a camper/rv to travel in. Definitely a labor of love. Maybe you'll see us out while you're traveling. We named the bus Journey.
Why they chose this property
There is so much to do in this area. We are close to Hocking Hills, Lake Hope, Lake Rupert and Lake Alma. Tons of hiking trails, horseback riding and kayaking. We love the small knit community without the traffic and congestion that some of the tourist areas bring. When stepping out of that ring you find peace and relaxation but yet close enough to visit those popular attractions.
Just 1/2 mile from town you will find our local coffee shop, Smoke N Beans. Spring Street Mocha is our favorite. They also have great lunch ideas, soups and sandwiches. If you are interested in shopping in our area, Weeping Willow is a must to check out. This boutique is located on the ground floor of the apartment unit. Main Eatery has a large variety of milk shakes as well as amazing lunch dishes. We have many pizza shops in the area. If you are looking for a more laid-back relaxing dinner option, we suggest Lake Hope Lodge. All dishes are mouth watering!
What makes this property unique
This is our home. This unit is located on our family's property. Thirty-seven acres with a size acre lake sitting right in the middle. Very secluded from the big city lifestyle. Just a short distance from all the amenities of town. You will feel like you are miles from civilization but still order a pizza and have it delivered. We hope you enjoy our property as much as we do.
