First Farm Inn

My friend and I were lucky to find this B&B that offered our first love of horseback riding. We received a warm welcome from the Inn Keeper who gave us privacy but also made sure that we had everything we needed to be comfortable. Jen is a lovely woman who is multi-talented and easy to be around. She is a remarkable cook and we ate so much at breakfast that we did not eat lunch. Jen took us on horseback rides after ensuring our level of riding skill. We could not have enjoyed the rides more and loved the horses. There is no doubt that we will return again for a four night visit. If you do not ride, the home offers much space for the guests to enjoy and Jen is very familiar with the area and can direct you toward your areas of interest. Loved our mini vacation!

This was a wonderful place to spend the weekend - Jen is a wonderful riding teacher, host and cook (her breakfasts and cakes are absolutely delicious). Loved the horses, my beautiful room and relaxing in the hot tub. Totally recommended.

My gf and I booked a 3-night stay at First Farm Inn for a brief getaway after our hectic teaching semesters, and from the first, Jen welcomed us with sincere warmth and an invitation to make their home our own. The room was comfortable and clean; the breakfasts ample, nutritious, and filling; the location at the end of a secluded road quiet and serene; the horseback riding and presence of other animals--Odo the dog, and Ravenpaw, Yoda, Corky, Xavier, Alex, Squeak, and Tig the cats--homey and comforting. But it was really the small things that impressed us the most; for example, although the mini-frig in our room was stocked with various sodas, Jen noticed we had brought and were drinking Diet Pepsi. We found DP in the frig the next day. On the horseback ride, she was very attentive to our comfort level and adapted accordingly. Jan and I were enjoying our time so much, we extended our stay by another night. We both recommend this B&B w/o reservation; if you are looking for a clean, quiet place to renew and refresh yourself, this is the place.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at First Farm Inn! From the engaging soccer interactions with Odo the Awesome to snuggling with the cats to our enlightening and relaxing trail rides with Jen and the horses to the breakfasts my daughter still raves about, our spring break at First Farm Inn was a fantastic getaway!

My husband and I spent two fabulous nights at the First Farm Inn for a ski week-end in January. Dana, Jen, and Tatiana are wonderful hosts! Our room was spacious, clean, and homey with all the ammenities we could need...extra towels and blankets, bathrobes for the hot tub, a fireplace (OK, it was a heater/FP but added a nice touch), and complimentary sodas and water in our room's fridge. They are very knowledgable about the area and the fun activities locally and in nearby Cincy. We enjoyed skiing at Perfect North slopes which is only about a 15 minute drive from the inn and looked forward to coming back to the inn for comfort and relaxation. A dip in the hot tub, cards in front of the fireplace, and an afternoon nap with Ravenpaw, one of their wonderful feline friends, made our trip. Breakfast is fantastic! Hopefully you'll be lucky enough to have the homemade cinnamon rolls! Yum! Come and go as you please, get interesting dining and activity ideas from Jen, great conversationalists, and just relax and recharge. I highly recommend staying at First Farm Inn!! You won't be disappointed. My husband and I are already planning our next visit! Thank you Jen, Dana, and Tatiana!

Magical weekend for best friends separated by 200 miles... Our mother/daughter/girlfriend weekend was fabulous. The hospitality cannot be beaten... starting w/ Odo (dog) greeting us w/ his ball and ending w/ our favorite horses nodding to us as if to say "see you next time - safe travels" as we drove off. Jen is not only a wonderful cook and hostess, but we learned more about horses and their behaviors, habits, maintenance, and agility than anywhere else we've been. The Treetop Room was perfect for us: clean, homey, spacious, comfortable. Bathroom is nice and big. Hot tub is awesome outside under the stars - feels great after a day of riding! The only "caution" I can provide other travelers is out of the innkeepers' control: They are located near I-275 so you do hear traffic. We were there when the leaves were off the trees, so I imagine in the summer months it wouldn't be as noticeable. We had a rejuvenating, lovely stay and highly recommend this special spot!

We have three children in which not only were our expectations met, but the children were thrilled with the friendliness of the Jen and Dana and the animals, the games, musical instruments, available food and beverages and comfortable, clean sleeping quarters. The attention to detail was phenomenal with nothing left to need or want. It was a luxury away from home we will never forget!

We had a great time riding with Jen. She is very knowledgeable and the horses were beautiful. We will definitely be back!!! We were in tree tops room, very clean and huge bathroom! Very welcoming family, pleasure to be around!

We stayed for 2 nights and it was the best first experience in a B&B! Jen, Dana, and Tatiana are so nice and their service is spectacular. The house is beautiful and very clean! They made my boyfriend's birthday really special with birthday cake! We got snowed in the first day and they made it really nice for us. Thank you so much and we will definitely be back! It was definitely a really great place to go!

My boyfriend and I needed a quiet, relaxing getaway and we got it here. Dana & Jen were wonderful, our room was very cozy, the hot tub was fantastic and the horses, cats & dog were the added touch to this pretty farm. The breakfast was amazing and we are definitely looking forward to coming back. I highly recommend this B&B - it was hard to leave.

My boyfriend and I just wanted a nice, quiet getaway and we did get exactly what we wanted here. Jen & Dana were extremely nice and helpful, the house was beautiful and the hot tub was very relaxing. I am an animal lover and have horses of my own, so it was nice to be around the country setting - very peaceful. We would highly recommend this B&B and are looking forward to staying here again.

I took my Fiance who had only been on a horse 2 times in his life (I had over 40 yr of riding) and we both had a wonderful time. The equine training he got was the best I had ever seen in a "rental" horse-Jen is Great! But I can recommend this to both riders and non-riders.

We took my husband's parents to First Farm Inn to celebrate their birthdays and our December wedding anniversaries..I pick First Farm because my mother-in-law was, is, and always will be an equestrian...The four of us had a wonderful time! This was the best B&B experience we've had! The meals, rooms, outdoors, pets, Jen, Dana and Tatiana were just great!!!! I highly recommend First Farm if you are a skier and want a place to stay while you ski at Perfect North or if you just want to chill out and finish that book you've been wanting to read. It is the right amount of getaway to the country and you can be in the big city in minutes....We will definitely go back!

The hosts were particularly friendly and fun to be with. The horse riding was not only instructional but just plain fun! Beautiful day, fun stay, fun riding. You couldn't ask for more.

Very relaxing and well-maintained farm house. As I was leaving, a small item dropped from my pocket onto the driveway, and before I knew it was missing, Jen had emailed me about it, and then sent it by regular mail. Jen is a true animal lover, especailly horses. I enjoyed the breakfast conversation with a fellow horse-lover who had stayed overnight while transporting his horse across several states. the location is also convenient for Cincinnati.

What a relaxing setting for a quick get away from hectic schedules and busy family life in Greater Cincinnati. In mere minutes of travel, we were out in the countryside walking down a gravel lane, soaking in the beauty of a fall day on a horse farm. We went out for an excellent dinner in Burlington and returned to unwind for a peaceful evening. After a fabulous breakfast, Jen took us out for a ride. As a novice, I was perfectly at ease on Sundance after some basic lessons, while my husband gallopped off across the field. The proprietors were very warm and welcoming!

Wow! We wanted pet friendly, and we got it. Fluffy, the resident chow, was a BFF for our Buddy on arrival. Buddy even got along with most of the cats! I visited with the 9 horses, and the breakfasts were to die for. A very nice and restful place, and actually very convenient for visiting Cincinnati. Jen, Dana and Tatiana were wonderful hosts. A great place to stay.

Easy to find quiet country setting. The rooms are decorated with family antiques and are very cozy. Food is very good, the innkeepers are helpful in finding things to do and where to eat in the area.

Just like home with the kitties, dog and horses. What a fabulous place to stay as inn keepers make you feel at home. Great country setting makes for a great get away. Very cozy and welcoming place to stay.

This B&B is a wonderful get-a-way for those wanting the relaxation of staying in the country with the lights of the city (Cinncinati) only minutes away.

Planned a trip to First Farm Inn and proposed on the front porch. Our one night stay at the Inn was great. Walked all around the farm, back roads, lake, etc. Enjoyed all the cats, horses, and dog. Went horseback riding Sat morning which was both educational fun. Jen and Dana did a great job.

We spent a week in March at FFI and 3 nights in June. We will be staying at FFI when ever we need to rest our bones in KY. Jen and Dana mix the right amount of service and leaving you alone. Let them know what you want and you will get it. I have never rode and had a blast. My daughter rides a lot and learned a ton from Jen. Quick ride to the city if you need it. Want to take my motorcycle next time to explore the nice hills and turns in the area. "Sometimes we visit your country and live in your home Sometimes we ride on your horses Sometimes we walk alone Sometimes the songs that we hear are just songs of our own..."

The best parts of our stay were the horses, the hot tub, the one on one attention and the amazing food at breakfast!

The setting for First Farm is truly idyllic, lush with well-groomed gardens and plants and lots of places to rest and relax outdoors -- on the porch, on a bench or in a hammock. The animals roaming about are peaceful and welcoming, as are the inkeepers Jen, Dana and Tatiana. Jen is a fabulous riding instructor and coach, and her breakfasts are sure to spoil. The massages are a great touch, too. This is a place you'll never want to leave.

A friendly smile, a fire in the fireplace on a chilly night, a cheerful fluffy dog to greet us, such was the welcome at First Farm. We enjoyed the room, clean, nice, and lots of little thoughtful details. Snacks and drinks in the fridge were welcomed. Pretty quilts, notes to let us know the details we might not have been sure of. A little cd player for music, and lots of info on the surrounding area. Minutes from the Creation museum so great if that is your destination. The hot tub was luxurious, the bed was firm but comfortable. Overall a very pleasant visit - and the breakfast was excellent. My only regret was how short our stay was. I would suggest booking at least 2 nights! Tracey

A great rest away from city life with fun horseback riding. Don't worry if you are a novice at the riding part, Jen is the best teacher for horsemanship you will ever find! Fabulous food, great accommodations, fun quaint surrounding towns. Don't miss this one!

A great place to enjoy fall foliage. Plenty of activities on site or nearby, depending on your interests, yet no pressure to do anything. I spent a lot of time on the porch swing with hot tea and also played their piano some each evening. The farm is small but has a woods in back for a short stroll. Hearty breakfasts will get your day off to a good start.

Very accomodating, gracious hosts in beautiful setting with great food.

Jen made our stay warm, inviting and well worth the money. The horse riding was the best we've every experienced and exceeded my expectations by incorporating both teaching and extended riding time. Breakfast was also great!

The stay at First Farm Inn was very pleasent. The family is friendly-as are all the critters. It felt like home. The farm house and 1870's room are beautiful. I particularly enjoyed the wonderful breakfasts, the well stocked refrigerator in the room and, the directions to attractions and restaurants in this 3 state area. The scenery is fantastic. I will definitely return.

We were delighted and felt very comfortable in the country setting of this home-like inn. The room was great and especially the breakfast. The conversation was warm, as was the whole wheat peach pancakes, with sides of cooked apples and sausage. Having the option of a massage and then to relas in the hot tub, was icing on the cake. I enjoyed being around the horses, cats, and dog, as it brought back child hood memories of my grandparents farm.

My boyfriend and I stayed at First Farm in just a few days ago, and well, we didn't want to leave. Jen and Dana really make you feel at home, and I certainly wish our house had someone who cooked us an amazing breakfast, taught us how to ride horses, and had a fantastic hot tub. We're definitely going back when it's warm outside, even though the fireplace did a pretty good job of keeping us toasty. Their dog is also pretty awesome, just keep an eye on your shoes by the hot tub! :-)
