Where can you mingle with Tunis Sheep, bird watch right out of your window and walk through 50 acres of woods? How about the middle of Amish country in Millersburg, Ohio? I’m talking about the Inn at Honey Run. This is an adults-only property located somewhat in the middle of the state between Cleveland and Columbus. There are 40 guestrooms with a two person maximum per room.
There are 7 walking trails, gardens, a pond and 50 acres to explore. This is a great place for bird watching. So much so that each room is provided with binoculars and a birding guide. Bird feeders are located all around the accommodations and night vision goggles are available for you to borrow to view the nocturnal birds. What a wonderful way to get into bird watching!
Birds are not the only animals you come in contact with at the Inn. They have a flock of Tunis sheep in a barn you will find on your walking trail.
The breed originated in Tunisia and they are very friendly and energetic. The staff takes care of the flock and they even compete in livestock competitions. Now that the flock has grown, they have teamed with a local artisan to start making lap blankets for each room.
Speaking of the rooms, there are many options. The Inn has 25 rooms complete with robes, Keurig coffee makers, 32” HD TVs, free WiFi and complimentary continental breakfast. Then there are Club Level Honeycombs which are built into the hillside above the Hotel. These come equipped with gas fireplaces, patios, mini-fridge, Keurig coffee makers, robes, 32” HD TVs and private outside key entries. In addition to the complimentary continental breakfast, you are treated to a complimentary Club Level Lounge from 4-6PM.
If you need more room, they have 2 cottages that have wood-burning fireplaces, a dining area, wet bar, Jacuzzi tub, covered parking, private decks with amazing views, along with all the other amenities of the Club Level Honeycombs.
There is also a fine dining restaurant on site with breakfast, lunch and dinner menus.
There is shopping in Millersburg, so go out and explore. Visit “All Things Retro” with vintage items from the 40’s to 60’s (you will be able to relate to the merchandise). “Bookworms” sells and trades gently used books and also sells new books at used prices. “Colonial Homestead” has handmade furniture. You can watch furniture being made or sign up for a woodworking class. And who doesn’t love cheese! Go to the Guggisburg Cheese Factory and watch cheese being made, then buy some to bring home. There are Wineries, a Glass Museum and Yoder’s Amish Village to tour. All this makes you wonder why you haven’t already paid a visit.
So, take a road trip and book one of the beautiful rooms at the Inn at Honey Run. Tell them www.boomertravelpatrol.com sent you!
