Me and my wife had a much needed break this last weekend 11/07/09 at tugglesfolley. The owners are very nice and took care of any special requests we asked of them. We where given a tour, a room key and an excellent dinner reservation. We came home to a nice bottle of champagne and cheese and crackers, we requested this, it wasn't included, but was choosen and presented very nicely. The owners share the residence with the guests and make it feel really homey. They gave us our space to have a quiete evening and made us feel like we where visiting best freinds. And the best note, was sunday breakfast, bacon, eggs, homemade biscuits and some of the best sausage gravy I have had. All this with a great cup of coffee for me and a cup of juice for the wife. We will be returning, and if you need a break from cincinnati and want a quick close trip this is it. We had the feel of going a long distance and hadn't traveled and hour. Thanks Dean and Debbie we really enjoyed it Mike and Elaina

I stayed with the Tuggles for an extended business assignment. Debbie and Dean treated me like a son. They are excellant host. Their home is very clean and guest friendly. I enjoyed the river view each morning and the endless stars at night. I enjoyed the near-by resturants and casinos. I hope to return and enjoy their company again.

We are normally “upscale” hotel people, but we will definitely be back to stay at Tuggles Folly B&B with Dean and Debbie. Their beautiful home is as picturesque as it is hospitable and welcoming. Breakfast was better than what you pay $50.00+ at the Ritz Carlton in Chicago or the Venetian in Las Vegas!!! How does homemade pecan waffles sound?? Fresh omelets made to order?? Hearty biscuits and gravy, fresh cut-up fruit daily, ham steaks and bacon and toast ………Oh My!! We could have breakfast early or late depending on if we wanted to sleep in or get an early start to explore the MANY, MANY things to do and places to visit in the area. We stayed at Tuggles Folly for (3) nights and we wished we had planned to stay longer!! If you are looking for a getaway that includes first class accommodations with an exceptional breakfast, is located in a serene and relaxing area, yet only minutes away from the big city flair and activities (Cincinnati is literally right across the river) – Tuggles Folly is the place to stay. - - Rick and Tamy

We had a great time at Tuggle's Folly. Dean and Debbie were gracious hosts, and we really enjoyed having the chance to chat with/get to know them. Breakfast was extremely tasty, and there was tons of food! They also supplied beverages, salty snacks, and chocolate throughout the rest of the day. We spent time playing pool in the rec. room and swimming in the large in-ground pool in the backyard. Debbie and Dean were also very helpful by supplying directions and making suggestions of restaurants/stores. The home was very clean and the views are fantastic. The Tuggles treated us like family, and we left feeling like we had been friends for years! We look forward to going back soon!!!!

Great destination. Skeptical of bed and breakfast idea, but was a sweet surprise. The hospitality was outstanding and the breakfast could not be beat. The only thing was the room was a bit small. But that is the coziness it brings to light do it still exceeded our expectations. Dean and Debbie could not have been better hosts. The sunrise over the Ohio River was spectacular from our view. Recommend to anyone.

The home is warm and inviting, the location is beautiful and peaceful, and the hosts are congenial; a joy to get to know. We started our day with morning coffee on the front porch, watching the sun rise over the river below. Then a hearty, home cooked breakfast left us with that good, old-fashioned, life-is-a-little-slower, feeling. The wildlife is abundant, and would track or flit across the property while reading a book out side. You can bring your own book, or pick one from the Tuggles’ library. A dip in the pool in the afternoon rounded out our lazy days nicely. Flat screen televisions are available, but we chose not to turn them on and instead finished our evenings in the game room. We are so glad we made the trip. Thank you Dean and Debbie for a wonderful time, we will be back.

Our room was small, but very clean and the daily service was outstanding. Quaint little towns near by to visit and found a great restaurant in Aurora called 3rd and Main. We would definately go back again.

The view of the Ohio River from each of our rooms was a nice treat. Breakfast was wonderful! Especially the biscuits and gravy! Thank you so much for a memorable stay in your lovely home.

We just returned from a girls trip that included an overnight stay at Tuggles Folly. What a treat! We arrived to wild turkeys on the hill, a beautiful view of the valley, and a warm welcome and tour of the house by Dean. Later in the evening a deer came right through the yard while we rocked in the chairs on the front porch. The breakfast was fabulous, especially the apples! And the company of the other guests was delightful. We would return for another stay without question.

My husband and I had never been to a B&B we were shocked at how wonderful it was. With a library, game room, pool and satelite dish at our disposal we couldn't have asked for a better stay. A great country setting, but close to towns with shops, dining, and gambling, we had absolutely everythign we could have wanted at our disposal. Not to mention the snacks, sodas and chocolates we enjoyed during our evening and the cook to order breakfast that was out of this world! This may have been our first experience, but it certainly won't be our last!

Debbie and Dean were wonderful hosts. They went out of their way to insure that my family had a wonderful stay and that a family memorial service went well. I will definitely stay with them again when I am in the Rising Sun area. My children commented that it was so much better than staying in a hotel; we were all able to be together, sharing the wonderful breakfasts and quiet evenings overlooking the Ohio River.
