About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

5 minutes by car to OU, 2 Bedroom, 1.5 bath, Wi-Fi

We follow Airbnb’s COVID-19 safety practices. House in woods 5 minutes to Athens. FREE Spectrum high speed WIFI. NOT suitable for parties. This is a re-modeled 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath home located seconds outside of town but down a private gravel road. The house fronts the highway but it is back behind the trees. A SUV all wheel drive car is best because our house is down a 1/4 mile private gravel drive. We do not plow snow because of the gravel so if a storm is coming. NO HASSLE self check in with easy keypad electronic lock, NO keys to lose! This is a completely, lovingly re-modeled 80 year old house in the woods, down a private gravel lane. The entire house is yours including the garage without a door. We have a full kitchen, 1.5 baths and 2 bedrooms, each having a queen bed. The TV is a ROKU so bring your passwords. We also have a DVD player and a library of DVD's for your use. There is a grass side yard and woods to hike in. Entire house and surrounding 7 acres of woods and brush. My family and I live in Athens so if you need something, we are here. Otherwise you will not see us except to cut lawn and maybe pick up trash if you are staying a week or longer.

Great house and location
The house and yard were very nice and it had everything we needed. Very close and convenient to campus. I recommend a sound machine for sleeping because of the road noise. We would stay here again!

Nice older property with classic craftsman style and updated kitchen and bathroom. The property is close to a busy road but the road noise was not a problem. We all enjoyed our stay and found the house to be a great location for Athens.

Great stay. Super private.
My family including adult children stayed here for a family reunion in town. We had a couple of late night get togethers with the other families and it was nice knowing we weren't going to disturb anyone else coming back so late and no one to disturb us in the morning. My adult children appreciated the coffee and coffee makers in the house! Thanks a bunch and we hope to return!
