Chillicothe House | Your Sustainable and Secluded Dog-Friendly Home Away From Home.

2 Bedroom House in Chillicothe

Wren Eagle Retreat is surrounded by forest, close to Chillicothe and very early Ohio history, and perfect for a quiet family weekend, a church group, scrapbooking or quilting group, corporate retreat, or any other getaway occasion. Wren Eagle Retreat offers many of the comforts of home albeit in a natural environment (with low-flow toilets, LED bulbs in most places, natural (and effective) cleaning solutions, recycling, and easy access to kayaking, biking, hiking, historical sites, and much more that Chillicothe and the surrounding area has to offer. Wren Eagle Retreat is also well-insulated so it uses less heating energy in the winter, and less AC in the summer. I do not use AC and you are not compelled to use it either although it is available! The multitude of trees ensure fresh air and cooler temperatures, and the windows and leafless trees allow winter sun to provide heat along with the wood stove insert, an easily renewable fuel. But, for those who want it, there is central heating , also.
So whether you stay for a week or two or make it a long weekend you can experience history and nature, and engage in many other activities. Or simply relax on the expansive deck and enjoy birds (including owl and whippoorwill), deer, lizards, toads and other wildlife found on the 31+ acres. Cathedral windows flood the main floor with light including the great room with stone fireplace with efficient wood stove insert, dining (with seating for 12) and a fully equipped kitchen with many modern conveniences. The sofa pulls out to a full bed and the main bedroom boasts a king bed and sitting area. The loft, with its seven windows, looks out on the forest and makes you feel as though you are staying in a tree house. It has a queen bed, 2 twin beds, and a half bath. Through the loft double glass doors you have a forest view on three sides for a comfortable tree house experience. Outdoors, you can grill your steaks on charcoal grills under the covered deck when it's raining, or simply sit and rock and enjoy the peace. The open deck is mostly shaded during the summer for your comfort and has 3 tables that can seat 12+ along with patio furniture. If you get your fill of lazing on the deck, you can always take in local shopping, ride the Paint Creek Recreational Trail, or visit museums. You're only about 5 miles from anything you might do in a city: eat fast food, go roller skating or bowling, sit down at a local restaurant, or watch a movie. You can drive to the First Capital District and walk from there to Yoctangee Park and visit the art museum then walk along the flood wall. Or you can drive to Memorial Stadium and watch a very entertaining college summer league baseball game by the Chillicothe Paints or, for more entertainment, take in the outdoor drama Tecumseh. There are golf courses for golfers, kayak services for kayakers, and many good churches. There's so much to do that a week will not be sufficient to explore everything and you will want to return time and time again. If you start at the First Capital District and walk south you can explore the Ross County Museum district and some historic homes. Or you can drive to the Adena Mansion and visit the home of Ohio's first governor.
There are many state parks and wildlife areas nearby. Among them are Great Seal State Park, Scioto Trail State Park, Ross Lake, and Buzzards Roost Nature Preserve where the tiny saw whet owls are banded each year and where you can see an exquisite cliff-side view above Paint Creek.
NOTE: I have video doorbells, and security cameras in the great room and kitchen and outside on or around the deck. I do not monitor them during rentals unless something unusual is noted (eg. fire/smoke alarm, sustained outdoor noise) I also have glass break sensors in various places because there is so much glass at Wren Eagle Retreat. No cameras are located in private areas (bedrooms, bathrooms, hallways, etc.).
There's so much more to do and see. Contact me for more suggestions. And BTW, I often cannot accommodate last-minute rentals (may need 2 or 3 days or more) because I clean, launder, and make beds and equip bathrooms slowly and carefully. I cannot give you any direct way to contact me because VRBO does not allow it. You'll just have to send me a message through VRBO.
And if you'd love to hike at Wren Eagle Retreat do stay on the marked trails. It's easy to get lost in the woods! And even I have gotten lost off-trail!

Summary: My husband and I loved it. We love being out in the middle of nowhere which is just what this place is, so you'll need that mentality to enjoy it. It was great to just be able to let the dogs out for them to run around and not worry about any roads or neighbors. It's nearly an hour from Hocking Hills, but it was such a gorgeous drive, I'm glad we stayed on this side of the park. The place was "farm house clean." Counters and kitchen, etc. were clean but baseboards, etc were dirty. Very roomy so the kids were able to play around.

Summary: The area is beautiful and it is only a short drive to get to Chillicothe and not too far to get to Hocking Hills. The house was comfortable and felt like home with many amenities. Had a great visit.

Summary: The house is a little older but had great amenities. Not really comfortable with the cameras inside the living room and kitchen areas with only one able to be unplugged but we dealt with it. The woods surrounding the house was amazing though. Very peaceful. Wish the trails would have been clear and it wouldn’t have rained so much so we could have hiked with our dog. Other than that we had a good stay.

Summary: Nice location only 10 minutes from downtown Chillicothe which is such a cute and fun town! We drove our truck there and thankful for that because the driveway was steep and slick. Very private house / large property. How decor was a little “tired” but the deck was great along with the outdoor furniture. Kitchen had most cooking essentials which we were thankful for since we did a lot of cooking. Check in and check out was smooth process and owner was very quick and easy to communicate with. Her food / shopping / hiking recommendations were great!

Summary: The setting a seclusion were just what we were looking for, and the property was large enough to accommodate my family of seven. Furniture was great and the beds comfortable. The property was clean, bathrooms and cooking/eating amenities great. We had a few detractions: The thermostat locked in at 72. It was very rainy and warm during our stay which made the humidity high. It was hard to get comfortable in the main parts of the house without being able to adjust the A/C lower to remove the moisture form the air. We keep out thermostat at home 65 at night and 68 during the day, even in the snowy winter. The grates for the Weber Grills were rusty. No amount of cleaning could get them to shine again. Guests might want to bring grill sheets from the grocery store (in the grilling aisle they look like aluminum screens) we use them on public park grills . We have a garbage disposal in our sink at home, without thinking my wife used this one for small vegetable scraps. But then we couldn't figure out how to turn it on or if it worked. I used the break loose tool to manually grind things up and the toilet plunger to move things along. Maybe, repair/replace/remove the kitchen sink garbage disposal. There were a lot of instructions for cleaning recyclables, but no instruction on what to do with them. I tried to guess based on the neighbors if they went in one of the cans at the end of the driveway or not. Some neighbors had brown and green cans, some had one or the other and some had black, but they were all empty. Rather than do the wrong thing we left them in the big container next to the kitchen. There weren't any additional kitchen garbage bags. I was thinking we could get all the trash out in one bag. To conserve space in the one bag, I tossed the grill ashes off the balcony into the woods. I regretted it immediately after. Well rain will take care of it, and I still had to go buy bags the morning we were leaving. The thermostat was an area of discomfort. We were very thankful for the portable A/C unit upstairs. The other items were minor inconveniences, but I stressed our work-a-rounds would result in a negative guest review or keeping the deposit.

Summary: We had a wonderful stay. The location is isolated enough for peace and quiet and the enjoyment of nature, but close enough to Chillicothe for other needs. My daughter and I enjoyed the mountain biking trails that were about 20 minutes away. We also enjoyed a couple fires with smore cooking in the evening. There is a kayak place just up the road.
