Second time
We found this place three weeks ago and stayed there for a four day extended weekend. We like it so much we came back for another four days. The place is beautiful very clean comfortable and extremely secluded. My only regret is that we didn’t wait a couple more weeks for the leaves to change more. Who knows, maybe will go back in another three weeks!

Tranquility
The cottage is one of the most serene and tranquil places I imagine I’ll ever have the chance to visit. My wife and I have stayed on five separate occasions…and we keep coming back because of the calm and peace we have when visiting. If you are in need of unplugging and relaxation, you will not find a better location.

Wonderful Nature Getaway
I just took a quick 24 hour respite from Cincinnati to be in nature and I was not disappointed. It's like the whole house is the screened in porch to watch a meadow and woods. I walked to the Inn referenced in the right up and it was phenomenal, and I just really enjoyed the simplicity of it.

This cottage is simply incredible. The home itself is so nice and well appointed inside, and the property it sits on is amazing. Beautiful scenery, wildlife, the most gorgeous sunset, couldn’t ask for much more. We walked in and immediately said we will be coming back for more relaxation. So glad we found this property :)

The property was outstanding. Sitting on deck we saw lots of wildlife. Highly recommend this property for a nice getaway. My only negative is not having a contact number for the owner in case something happened . We did have email but responses were slow. We would definitely come back.

2nd Time
2nd time in a year we've stayed here. Wonderfully clean and bright and quiet, which was what we were looking for. Though it was not a fault of the property, next time we will choose a time of the year when walnuts weren't falling off the trees overnight, onto the metal roof, and then rolling off. A little disconcerting until we figured out what the noise was. A gem of a property. We'll be back.

Our stay was relaxing and the setting was pristine! Kudos to the owner/property manager for delivering a first-class experience for travelers to the area! We went to Serpent Mound, Miller’s complex, Adams Lake State Park, Blake’s Pharmacy and Meranda-Nixon Winery. Our favorite was sitting on the deck, rain and shine!

Very nice property!
We enjoyed our stay here. The property is beautiful and the house really is a work of art. It is very well designed, finely crafted and situated on a peaceful and private piece of land. I would recommend bringing your groceries and plan on cooking for the most part as there aren’t a lot of options for dining out that are within a short driving distance. The owner was very responsive to a request regarding the trash bin in the drive being full - he had someone come and empty it out within a few hours. There were lots of comfy towels, the sheets/bedding were nice/clean and the house was like new/spotless. The outside spaces were also very nice and include some walking paths. The building overlooks a large, beautiful wildflower field complete with butterflies, a variety of interesting birds and an occasional visiting fawn. This place is a real gem! Overall, this is a very nice place to get away from the hustle and bustle.
