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!

4 day 3 night stay

The house was perfect for what we needed. The kids loved the upstairs bedroom. The bedroom with the large bed worked great. We easily fit our pack and play for the baby to sleep in with plenty of room. And the room had a rocking recliner for the babies nighttime wakeups.Unfortunately it was crazy hot during the day, so we didnt get to explore the property much. We look forward to visiting again. Maybe in the fall when its cooler!

Homestead stay success!

We stayed 4 nights at the Homestead. Plenty of room for our adult family and dogs. Beds were comfy, amenities were excellent, and location was easily accessible to all the Hocking Hills hiking areas. We loved the yard and surrounding property. Quaint old farmhouse! Owners were super responsive when we had a question. We loved the stay and highly recommend!

Old And In Disrepair

The property is in dire need of a renovation! Every room needed updating and repairs. Blinds were broken, the water fixtures were back-words in the shower, which was so small we choose just to use it to rinse off from the hot tub, which had not been cleaned, and the water was lower than some of the jets, making it loud and uneffective! The screening on the back porch looked like it had never been repaired, with multiple rips and mold growing on it. We have a dog and wanted a fenced in yard. The fence was in bad shape and we had to put wood at two places where she could have gotten out. The property was somewhat remote and took quite awhile to get to any destination. One and done for us!

Graduation weekend

We rented the homestead for family to stay for my daughter’s graduation from OU . It was perfect ! Lots of room and very charming. Although the weather was a little crazy we were able to all be inside and gather in the the large great room with the large dinning table and comfy couches. . Perfect for our 2 dogs as well . . We will definitely be coming back !

The property was an older farmhouse so expect that it was very well maintained and very clean and comfortable. If you’re looking for something new and modern, this is not for you, but if you’re looking for a place just to chill out and not worry about things and eight beds It’s great. Only downside there are no doors to the bedrooms. There are shutter doors in privacy walls,, but no doors just something to be aware of.

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.
