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!

We spent Thanksgiving at the Homestead with our family and dogs, and it was a cozy, secluded space to cook, unwind, relax in the hot tub, and walk in the woods. Hosts were very responsive and kind, and went out of their way to mail my daughter's belongings she left behind back to us.

Septic exhaust/sewer gas We had an overall ok time. There was a terrible stench coming from the back bathroom anytime we flushed the toilet or ran the shower. We also live in the country and are on a septic so we know that smell. It seemed the septic exhaust or sewer gas was so not being ventilated properly. I didn't see any other reviews mentioning it so it may just have happened? We couldn't figure out how to adjust the heat in the house. It was set to 63 (it was pretty chilly that weekend). We tried everything and adjusted the temp but it never changed. My husband lit the wood stove instead and we were ok. The hot tub was ok, it needed some water but there was no chlorine crystals in the house like the directions had called for. We even went to the store in town but no such luck finding anything. We did use it but not as much as I had anticipated. Good family time, we didn't go anywhere besides the store. Everything else was fine. We liked the old house and the property.

This old farmhouse brought out nostalgia and sweet memories of our great-grandparents. Loads of character in the quirky layout. The view was lovely, and we really enjoyed the hot tub. The kitchen is spacious enough for two to prep and clean up meals with room to spare, a real treat in a rental. We had one reason to contact the host and he responded immediately. Definitely recommend.

This establishment is undoubtedly an old homestead that necessitates major renovations. Some spaces are rather confined. Being 5'2 There was plastic around the window AC unit that was poorly taped up, allowing 75 stink bugs into the top bedroom. (Could not and would not use this room.) The couch needs updated as well.

We enjoyed our stay very much at The Homestead. There was plenty of room for my family. The hot tub, screened in porch, and fire pit with the fenced in back yard were the highlight of our stay. We liked the privacy and quietness of the home and walking trails as well. We would definitely stay her again.
