A historic 2 acre property just minutes from town

The moment you step onto this historic piece of property, you’ll know how special it is! Originally the Ludlow Schoolhouse #8 in 1830, this home was converted in 1930 & most recently, fully renovated in 2023. You’ll love the new kitchen with granite counters and new appliances. This home boasts four cozy bedrooms, a second floor bonus room with TV, and a dedicated workspace. We provide the coffee & get you started with soaps; linens and towels are also provided. We take great pride in our home, and our cleaning standards are beyond expectation. You’ll love your stay here: far enough away to hear the crickets at night, yet close enough to town for all your needs and attractions.

Idyllic Vacation

My sister, mother, aunt and I were in Xenia to do some genealogical research. This was the perfect location. The beds are amazing, the home was cozy and clean, and they even dropped off an HDMI cord so we could put our research on the TV instead of huddling around a computer.It was an excellent visit and we would happily stay here again

Great escape!!!!

Weekend getaway with some friends and we loved our stay! The house is so clean and inviting! The outdoor area with the porch swings and firepit allowed us all to swing and catch up! We could have stayed out there forever! Can't wait to go back!

From the moment we arrived it felt welcoming and cared for. The space was cozy, smelled amazing, and thoughtfully decorated, making it feel like a true home away from home. Clean, well stocked with random things like coffee, medical kit, toiletries. Country setting but close enough to small cities and hiking. I contacted the owner about a non emergency question and was replied to immediately. Communication was great the entire time. Everything about our stay was superb! The sunsets were pretty amazing too!!

Summer Break at the Schoolhouse

Our group of women who all met working at a school district here in Ohio, had the best time at this converted old schoolhouse. The house was very comfortable and roomy, and we were amazed at the attention to detail. We took a trip to Yellow Springs, which was a short 10 minute drive. We will definitely recommend this house to friends and family.

Grad weekend

The house is well appointed, clean and comfortable. Worked well as we needed 4 beds for family on graduation weekend. We had a lot going on elsewhere, but wish we had more time to relax and enjoy the home and patio. Loved the history and what they’ve done with it.

Perfect for our family with grandparents

We stayed for the weekend of Cedarville University’s graduation and were so pleased with our stay. The home is beautiful, exceptionally clean, so tastefully decorated. My parents who were in town from Orange County Ca said they would love to the Midwest if they could live in a house like the schoolhouse. We loved our stay! 10/10 across the board!

The Schoolhouse was perfect for our wedding weekend!

Our family loved the Schoolhouse and couldn’t have been happier with the proximity to Yellow Springs for our son’s wedding. Comfortable beds and plenty of room for everyone! Kasey and Nick were excellent hosts and very helpful when contacted. I’d recommend this property to anyone needing a place to stay in the area.

Beautiful restoration of an old schoolhouse. It is decorated so cute. The fire pit area was amazing, it was truly a relaxing and wonderful stay. I can’t think of anything that would have made it any better! We will definitely stay there again. Thank you to our hosts!

ORF Wedding Weekend

My husband and I got married at Ohio Renaissance Faire and we used this Vrbo as a place to meet up, rest, and get ready. Perfect 35 drive to the Faire. Super quiet and private with a short drive into town if you need anything. We will definitely book this place again if we have a group going to ORF.

One of the BEST!!

From the moment we walked in, we were in awe of this house. It immediately smelled clean and inviting. The owners thought of everything! The kitchen was fully stocked for any cooking/eating you would want to do! They even supply some basic spices and coffee/tea.There is plenty of onsite parking and the house is conveniently located to get to many places easily. We would definitely return if we are planning to be in the area again. This is a beautiful, clean home that the owners really take pride in!
