Jessica and Ryan have done an outstanding job renovating this space. Great craftsmanship, spacious and comfortable all with some historic charm. Everything you will need for your stay, whether a weekend or a week. And spotless! Small touches like snacks, condiments and cooking essentials set this above the rest. Great communication from the start if the reservation through checkout. And thank you for the flexibility Jessica! Hidden gem if you are visiting ONU (Ada) Bluffton or Findlay. Will definitely book again when back in the area. ##### katy j. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025
