Get away from it all! Restored 1800 log cabin on 40 acres - NO cleaning fee!

Welcome to the Andrew Behm cabin,
Visitors to the cabin will enjoy a peaceful rural experience while viewing the breathtaking views of the rolling foothills of Adams County. Named after the first family to settle the land in the 1800’s, Behm Mountain Cabin is a relaxing spot in the wilds of Adams County, Ohio. The cabin is reconstructed from the original stones and hand-hewn logs of several historical structures, originally built over 100 years ago. Relax in front of the wood burning fireplace and enjoy a peaceful night's rest on one of the three queen beds with pillow-top mattresses. Behm Cabin sleeps up to 6 people - great for a family retreat. The cabin has a fully equipped kitchen with unique concrete and antique counter spaces; if you choose to cook everything you need is available. There are two full bathrooms with tiled showers and provided linens. The master bath has an antique sink and rock counter. Behm is intentionally low-tech, however there is a T.V. on Dish Network and a DVD player provided. If you need phone service, please bring your cell phone. Our cleaning charges are included in the base price, so there is no additional added at check-out!!

The property includes 40 acres with abundant wildlife and some walking paths. The area is a peaceful place to grill-out and sit at the picnic table under the timber framed gazebo. You can also relax by the fire pit and stargaze or let the kids catch fireflies. Complimentary firewood for fireplace and outdoor fire pit is provided.

There are several attractions all located 30 minutes or less from the cabin. The world famous Serpent Mound, the Wheat Ridge Amish Community and shops, the Edge of Appalachia and Arc of Appalachia nature preserve hiking trails, Chaparral Prairie and Davis Memorial hiking trails, Ohio Brush Creek which is great for canoeing, kayaking and fishing, Adams Lake State Park, Shawnee State Park, Mineral Springs Lake, and the Adams County Quilt Barn trail.

Andrew Behm Cabin is the place to get away from it all. Come and relax with us!

Wonderful stay at this lovely mountain cabin.
The Andrew Behm Cabin is a beautifully restored heavy timber-framed cabin that is located on a tranquil hilltop among the forests of southern Ohio. Its proximity to the many lovely nature preserves and excellent local hiking trails made it particularly attractive to us retirees who were looking to go birding, botanizing, and exploring the local area. It was a pleasure to return to the comfortable environment of the cabin at the end of a day of activity and just completely relax. We highly recommend it.

My wife and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary here, pictures do not do the cabin justice. If you want an early settlement feel with modern amenities, this is it.
