5 out of 5Awesome Experience!!!
October 28, 2012
My husband and I celebrated our Anniversary at Thyme for Bed and it was the best experience. The B&B is absolutely beautiful and we felt so welcomed by Sherryl. Completely worth every cent!!! And the breakfast was FABULOUS!! Definitely a place to try. We will be back - not doubt about it.
4.6 out of 5Amazing B & B, beautiful decor, great innkeepers, and good food!
October 07, 2012
What an amazing place to stay! The dome is a beautiful work of art, elegantly decorated, clean, serene, and comfortable. The rooms are so relaxing and comfortable and so are their swings! The innkeepers are fun and went the extra mile. Would recommend to anyone and hope to be back soon!
4.8 out of 5Great "experience"!!

This was a great adventure! Cheryl couldn't have been warmer. After settling the confusion of this part of Indiana being in the wrong time zone, we settled down in our room. Very comfortable. The house is very open and Cheryl not only rents the room but her home. After doing Smores on a bonfire we settled in and watched the debates with her. Not just the house was great! Breakfasts both mornings were wonderful. She like people to have an experience and she gives it - her choice of dinner places were also spot on. Highly recommend this eclectic country home - beautiful setting. Thanks Cheryl!
5 out of 5Just the right amount of escape
September 30, 2012
The food was superb! We had a very relaxing weekend getaway feeling just as welcome as our own family. The In Your Dreams room was a large, wonderful modern touch on the classic B&B. the Pheasant room was a perfectly crafted selection of prairie/forest themes that really meshed together in all the right ways. The overall ambiance of the public lounge space and outdoor patios wrapped accented our room with just the right amount of escape. -Tom

5 out of 5Fun and peaceful!
September 24, 2012
What a beautiful and interesting BnB! The owners bed over backwards to make sure the BnB is in perfect condition for their guests. The breakfast was delicious! It sounded strange to me - peanut butter and chocolate chip pancakes with homemade grape syrup (grapes from their own vine), but they were absolutely DELICIOUS! The house has heated floors, so you can walk around in socks and there are seven fun indoor and outdoor swings, in the balcony, on the deck, iin the yard and garden. Each room has a separate air conditioner that was like a wonderful soother for sleeping! I could go on and on......
4.4 out of 5Unique and cozy!
September 21, 2012
Our room was so cozy, the chocolates on the bed were great, the owners are very friendly and accommodating, and the breakfast exceeded our expectations. We loved having a glass of wine in the swings in the loft area of the dome. Highly recommend staying here!
5 out of 5Magical place
September 14, 2012
Truly a magical place. The place literally resembles something out of a fantasy novel or movie. Picturesque moments anywhere around or in the building. The house is nicely set up and the external is very nicely laid out. Breakfast was amazing...you have to taste the omelet with edible flowers. Owners were very accommodating and great hosts. I would definitely come back again. Such an interesting experience, the building itself is a sight to behold amongst the usual regular bed and breakfast houses! ~Andy Tan & Suki Chao
