About this property

The Homestead, at Nine Pines Farm - Hot Tub and Walking Trails

Whether it's the rich early-American history, or the scenic beauty of the Appalachian foothills, The Homestead is the best place to start your adventure into the Hocking Hills!
While the 23 acre farm itself dates back to the late Civil War Era, The Homestead is an updated farmhouse, at the front of the property, that still holds quirky and charming reminders of its approximately 150+ years on the farm. The Homestead also sits alongside the John Hunt Morgan Heritage Trail, the route Confederate Brigadier General Morgan took during his raid on Southern OH.

With it's rolling pastures, petite orchard and grapevines, and the staple white picket fence, it's too easy to get lost in a daydream on the screened-in back porch.
The fenced in area is a great place for your family pet to run, and the shared trails and seasonal pond are a great place to kill time. In the evenings, you can unwind by the fire ring out back, or relax in the hot tub on the patio.

The Homestead is also centrally located to everything the Hocking Hills region has to offer!

Long Weekend Getaway

This property is in a great location to enjoy a winter long weekend getaway with a few families. While clean and well kept (and warm despite single digit temps), thankful for the other reviews that let us know in advance that there is not a lot of privacy in the bedrooms. The owner was easy to contact and quick to respond.

Christmas Getaway

We chose to stay here over Christmas since none of us have a house big enough to host the whole family. When we got there we were very excited to see they had actually decorated the house for christmas. They even had a little hot chocolate station set up with mini marshmellows which just made our first night sitting around together magical. There is something just really nice about not having to set everything up yourself that you take for granted as a kid and having them have all the extra little things was a nice surprise. There was plenty of room for all of us to spread out and be comfortable. The hot tub was amazing, something about the contrast of cold air and hot water was just wonderful. We were glad to see they had it available all year round.

Homestead

Home was clean but we were very disappointed with the cleanliness/condition of the pots, pans and cookie sheets that were there do us to use during our stay. They were in horrible condition, either not cleaned properly or not usable. Fry pans had the coating pealed off, everything we attempted to cook stuck to the pans. This was the first time I have ever had to go shopping for new items to cook in. We were very disappointed.

Family Getaway

I think this property has potential but it is in need of updates. The most important being that there are only shutter doors on the main bedrooms and they are off of the kitchen area. There is NO privacy. The bedroom considered the master bedroom is also the access to the upstairs and front entry way and you can’t close it off so it’s the main traffic area. There were mouse droppings all over and hasn’t been properly maintained. The back yard had an underground bees nest that kept us away from a large section there. I had a dog that we had to contain in a small area so she couldn’t use that section of the yard. It was a hassle. This was a disappointing experience and there is so much more. I think maybe the only thing we did enjoy was the hotub. That was decent. We won’t be back to this property.

quirky but nice

The home fit all of us well, we had 8 adults and 2 children. Home has its quirks like one bathroom door is smaller than the doorway and open at the top, you have to walk thru bedrooms to get to other bedrooms and there are no doors. Home was handicap accessible, doorways are just wide enough. Dishwasher didn't work but hopefully they will get that fixed soon. I suggest to bring your own pillows. Overall we really enjoyed the space in the home and the screened in porch was great. Due to burn ban we were unable to use the firepit but it was nicely set up.

Great Girl Scout "Glamping" Trip

This was a perfect place for our Girl Scout troop to have our "Glamping" trip in Hocking Hills. The girls enjoyed cooking meals in the kitchen and eating them family style around the dinner table in the dining room. They really liked the hot tub, and the room arrangements were great for accommodating 7 girls and 2 adults. The hosts were extra helpful and mailed 2 articles that the girls left behind. The girls also liked hiking the property and being so close to our Hocking Hills activities.

Quaint and Quirky!

First let me say that Nick was an excellent host. Answered all of my questions beforehand and came when we needed some help. The house is clean and the rooms were adequate for our needs. The table was large enough to fit all nine of us. The hot tub was a hit at the end of the day to help with aches and pains but our favorite place was around the firepit. Lots of laughs and memories shared.

Family getaway to celebrate retirement

Our family thoroughly enjoyed this getaway for a special celebration of my wife's retirement. The Homestead was a perfect place to meet and make a special weekend for her. Homestead is secluded and homy. There was space for all to have their own room but amenities to enjoy family, from the hot tub, to the fire ring, to the property trails, to the dining table. All this on top of the proximity to a state park. Always amazed at the little touches the owners include that just make you smile. I am looking forward to returning; I want to stay here at least once a year, only longer! The Homestead is such a special place! Sometimes I do something right. This was one of those times!
