Beautiful property with an interior to appeal to your more modern sensibilities. Conveniently located with downtown Athens practically around the corner, but tucked away so you felt surrounded by nature. We had a fair amount of rain on this trip, so the covered fire pit area kept us and our fire all the firewood dry. The interior was thoughtfully arranged. Rooftop deck was a nice bonus. My family usually travels this way once a year, and staying at this property would be my first choice.

It was interesting staying in a converted shipping container as I was always curious. Very clean. Heatwave outside but comfortable in the rental. Although smallish, it is set up well and had what we needed. There is an even smaller rental next to it with some privacy fencing. Convenient drive to any place in Athens City/OU but located between The Plains and the west side of Athens so easy to eat out or carry in food.
