We stayed over the first weekend in April when all the snow came through. We were warm and comfortable in the Chestnut Barn. We cooked in and the kitchen was a great place to work. The open concept is wonderful for visiting. Alex and Jean are very nice and helpful. We had internet problems (probably due to the storm) and Alex came and helped us out and showed us how to use the TV. Bedrooms are very comfortable. Overall great stay and we will return. Thank you Alex and Jean for the use of the Chestnut Barn!! Judy ##### Judy E. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2016 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Janelle P. Jul 10, 2018 #### Absolutely perfect for our direct sales team retreat! The layout of the barn was everything we could have asked for! The large open kitchen/living room area allowed all of us plenty of space for group activities. We did a scavenger hunt around Winesburg and fell in love with the quaint little town. Whitmer’s pizza was delicious and the staff in the store made our stay so comfortable. It was so nice to just walk a few steps and have access to drinks, snacks, ice, etc. We were able to spend a little time with Jean! She is absolutely phenomenal and made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. I hope to return to this property several times in the future! ##### Janelle P.

Barn is just as pictures represent. Owner was very responsive to my emails. We met him at check in & he stopped in the evening before we left. It was cold the days we were there & I found the house a bit on the chilly side so we adjusted the thermostat. There are throws on the sofas if you want to cuddle up. Personally, I'd add a gas fireplace in a corner of the great room. I prefer a firm mattress (not that these were soft by any means) but just different than I prefer. The upstairs bathroom is not a true master but does have access from one bedroom. It also has a door from the hall so will act as the bathroom for both upstairs bedrooms. The configuration for the downstairs bath is a little odd but assume the structure of the barn dictated it be done that way. The toilet & sink are in one room & the shower is in another, which has access from the downstairs bedroom. Everything is new & the owner seemed very eager to make sure our stay was enjoyable. We visited Berlin, Sugar Creek, Walnut Creek, Millersburg & Canton. All the small towns are a short drive. We went to a Victorian mansion in Millersburg to see the Christmas decorations (highly recommend for a tour anytime if you like that sort of thing) and Canton for a drive thru Christmas light display & dinner at Sparta Steak House (best service I have every had in a restaurant). I would certainly recommend the house for a stay in the area. So much better than being in a hotel, again, in my opinion. ##### BeachLover9 B. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2015 ### 4/10 Poor #### Karol S. Nov 21, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### The rules were ridiculous My family probably spent at least an hour abiding by "the rules" prior to leaving. Everything from collecting all trash to making sure floors were clean (which was difficult with the falling leaves outdoors). There was no shampoo or soap in the shower/bathing area. There was some watered down liquid soap in the dispenser in one of the bathrooms. No soap at all in the other. Thank goodness there was a Dollar General nearby! On the plus side, we did have plenty of towels and bedding. The beds were hard and rooms were not handicapped accessible. I almost wiped out on the stairs, and then discovered later that there were nightlights near the extra bedding. Blinds are needed on the front door and door the kitchen. On the positive side, the rooms and kitchen were pretty. The location was centered nicely around all the activities we had planned. ##### Karol S.

Jul 15, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Unexpected REQUIREMENTS Let me start by saying I waited over a month to do my review because I wanted to cool down. In general, it was a fairly nice place for a group of 6. However, I wish I could attach pictures of the list of cleaning requirements and the dangerous front sidewalk. There does not seem to be a way to do that. Even though it said not handicapped accessible the sidewalk was a NIGHTMARE in midst of repair with stepping stones at an angle and no mortar. Even sure footed and able people had great difficulty. I guess what upset me the most was compounded with embarrassment. I was the trip planner for 5 of my very dearest friends from Montana for a 5 day 3 state tour. Every step of the 5 day tour I planned with care and visited personally before including on the tour. INCLUDING a previsit to the Chestnut Barn. The contract alluded to the fact that the "Barn" rules would need to be followed. At no time was I ever presented with the rules except NO shoes in barn and NO smoking in barn. The list of rules was overwhelming. I will name a few: ...Before leaving - Clean the stove- refrigerator - microwave, dishes and counter tops. Mop all floors and vacuum rugs. The list went on and on and on!! I was humilated that my vacationing friends had to work like motel maids plus the nightly rate!!! ALL of this should be disclosed prior to paying the deposit. I think any thoughtful host would block out a week to finish the sidewalk so no one would get injured. On top of everything, there were tons ants in the upstairs bathroom. I texted to complain and ask for spray or something and about an hour later the wife ( co - host) came in with more ant traps (there were alread some by the front door). With a crabby look, her first words were... "someone must have been eating in the bathroom if there were ants there!" Oh Really??? We had one meal and it was pizza - I highly doubt anyone in my group took food upstairs into the bathroom to eat it! Overall - I would not go back. ##### Cynthia B.

The nice big kitchen and great room was perfect for us to all get together and visit and share meals together. Everything we could’ve needed was provided. Including extra things in the kitchen that you don’t always get other places. I highly recommend it to anyone who is planning to visit that area! ##### Brenda L.
