"Ulysses" tiny cabin on the creek at Waldbaden

Stay in a truly unique, a studio tiny home style cabin with a porch view of the forest and creek, and 30 acres of woods, hills and wild life. Explore the trails and experience nature conveniently near the lively culture and arts town of Athens, Ohio, and Ohio University.

READ THIS BEFORE booking our cabin. The name of our campground is Waldbaden Acres. Waldbaden is German for 'forest bathing'. These cabins are in the forest and surrounded by trees, ponds, and all kinds of nature. If you want a cabin that is surrounded by a wide path of manicured lawn and large paved parking spaces, DO NOT choose us! There are many guests who really appreciate our rustic, and creative aesthetic that is nature immersive, but occasionally there are those who rent our place and realize too late that they have chosen to be closer to nature than they are comfortable with. It is really in everyone's best interest that people who are uncomfortable with sleeping in a cabin where nature is not an arm's length away, not book our accommodations.

PLEASE NOTE If you have challenges relating to mobility, we may not be the right place for you. The ground is often not level, and some of our steps are narrow to accommodate tight spaces.

Please feel free to walk the trails and see the nature, but also be aware that it is mostly untamed nature and that your exploration is at your own risk.

This cabin is cozy and comfortable with great nature views, especially from the porch.

** We keep our cabins clean and tidy. However, they are located in a forest, and occasionally, insects visit them. We do not use pesticides as the residual chemicals of using them are likely to cause harm to our guests and nature, where as the insects are not. Please be aware of this, as we do not offer refunds for the presence of nature.

*** Just a quick note—the nightly rate covers 2 guests. If you’ll have more than 2 people, please be sure to add the extra guest(s) when making your reservation. Thank you!
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchenette with a refrigerator, a microwave, and a stovetop. Guests can expect to find free WiFi. The cabin also includes a coffee maker.

Very remote and quiet, cabin was clean. Property is about 4 miles from the bike trail. The driveway leading to the Ulysses was pretty tight but doable. Overall it was a good stay and relaxing.
