  • Inn Details

    We have been voted "the best porch view in Ohio" and are listed in the top 35 B&Bs and Country Inns in the Great Lakes States by "The Unofficial Guide to B&Bs etc...,Mary Mihaly, Hungry Minds Press. We are situated on a ridge high on Harmar Hill;the house enjoys a panoramic view of the confluence of the Ohio and Muskingum Rivers and the city of Marietta. The woodwork throughout the house, from the first floor hall to the third floor ballroom reflects the finest in master craftsmanship. The intricately carved mantels, dentil molding, tower archway, and acorn finials on the grand staircase are of a bygone era. There are four well-appointed bedrooms and 3 full baths. The house is furnished with Antiques and interesting pieces collected from several corners of the world. The garden area blooms from early April to late October, giving guests colorful views from their rooms.

    Not only what a view but what gracious hospitality! This wonderful Victorian is not only gorgeous but we could not find fault with a single thing. This is the way to go people. Judy and Doug take you back to a time when things moved slower, people were kinder and the small things were appreciated. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience. Hope to see you again soon.

    Unbelievable B&B

    My husband and I stayed at House on Harmar Hill in January 2011. We were extremely impressed with our entire experience. Our room was beautiful. The house was magnificent. Judy and Doug are very welcoming. Breakfast was spectacular. We will visit again. I can see this becomming a regular get away for us.

    Very Nice Getaway
