However, several of my relatives stayed there and liked it, and we reserved the big event room for a family get together one evening. What a nice room! There's a fireplace, enlarged photos of Amish all over the walls, a kitchenette, and a bunch of round tables, where we ate. Perfect for the family get-together. While I'm sad that the place where I had my 10 year old birthday pool party is gone, I think they did well with the remodel.

The bad thing is that I started feeling bad in my 2 day stay and as I was sitting in my room, my fiancée shows me something in the hallways and on the walls. BLACK MOLD. This place is full of it! DON'T STAY HERE. Jen and Tom, I feel so sorry for the way they get treated and they don't get paid near enough for I never see either of them sleep. They always look tired and worn to a frazzle. I hope they get out before it causes bad health issues. Also, if I were Markle, Indiana I would shut this place DOWN!!! HUGE health risks here people.

Upon arriving at this conveniently located b&b (just a few minutes drive away from IWU), John and LeRoy immediately welcomed us into their home with warm hospitality, making sure that we had all the essentials and amenities necessary to have a comfortable stay (e.g. Wi-fi password, information about the house, extra blankets, etc.). We were made to feel like royalty by the several high-class amenities offered at the Inn including, specialty chocolates in the room, plush bathrobes, an assortment of magazines to read while in bed, and bubble bath for the jacuzzi tub. The special touches extended into each morning, too. We were treated to delicious breakfasts each morning set with a beautiful tablescape (and yes, as some one who loves to host herself, I noticed and appreciated that the dishes and flatware were different each morning). It is in the dining room that you are most able to appreciate the care and attention that the owners have put into preserving the history and integrity of their century old home. Beyond the tasty meal and beautiful view from the dining room, it was also our hosts' hospitality that put us at ease when we aren't normally used to eating with other guests whom we don't know; John broke the ice by conversing with the guests, telling us stories about the area, and providing entertainment suggestions when asked. We had a wonderful time and if ever in the area, we will certainly stay again; and we exhort you to do the same.

The owners have converted this 1900s farmhouse into a beautiful, modern b&b. There are 4 rooms total, each with their own private bathroom. All of the rooms are newly remodeled and just gorgeous. We stayed in the "North Room," which is the first room (all rooms are upstairs on the 2nd level) at the top of the stairs. It has a very comfy queen bed and ample space. My favorite feature is the clawfoot tub, a bath bomb was even included for those wanting a bath. The owners live on the 3rd floor so are always available. Visiting during Covid, we had a very safe stay as well. We got to choose our breakfast time and were served a grand breakfast to ourselves in the dining room. A breakfast-in-bed delivery option as well. Karen made a feast of a breakfast (French toast, eggs, bacon, fruit, and Tinker coffee!). Breakfast is included with the cost of room (which is very affordable!).
