Wonderful and clean place. Family was able to spend quality time and attend graduation in Tiffin.
The room were comfortable. The family enjoyed walking around the property. The kids saw some deer, heard the geese and bull frogs. Loved the back deck. Very quiet and peaceful setting.
One suggestion is placing more lights on the front porch and maybe ceiling fan.

Great Country Home Pet Friendly
Stepping into this exquisite country home, we were pleasantly surprised to find our expectations exceeded. In search of a pet-friendly retreat away from the city's hustle and bustle for our niece's wedding at the Midnight Gem, this home was an ideal choice - perfectly situated and beautifully appointed. The hosts were outstanding, ensuring a seamless check-in and checkout experience.

Family Thanksgiving Dinner
Had a great stay at the house. We had 27 people for dinner and we all fit in the sunroom. It is a lovely updated old farm house which does mean a smaller kitchen and small bedrooms with the exception of the master which was huge. The hosts responded promptly to every question. Very clean. There is also a very friendly cat!

Excellent!
The house is just as listed. It was a neat farm house, tucked away in the country. The rooms were all neat, and the back yard is beautiful. The owners were very easy to work with. We all loved it.

Annual Family Gathering
Property and weather were perfect for our weekend stay. House was very accommodating to meet our family needs. We had 11 people and 1 dog. Plenty of room for us all. The property is full of things to check out. We loved exploring. A couple miles down the road we tried some fishing and hiking at FW Kent Park. Beautiful area.
We will be back.
