The Cornerstone

From the moment Terry carried in our bags for our two day stay, until after the Brenda's delicious and chatty breakfast time, our girls' time at The Cornerstone was wonderful. Terry and Brenda are very welcoming and helpful with ideas of where to eat and what to visit. The neighborhood was nice and we felt comfortable taking an early evening stroll to walk off our Beachy's restaurant meal. We hope to go back and make this an annual event.

Brenda was a great host and simplified our journey into Amish country! I wish that we could have stayed another night and relaxed a bit. Beautiful home and very comfortable!!

Brenda and Terry are warm and welcoming Inn hosts. We enjoy visiting their B&B at least twice a year. I'd like to highly recommend thier B&B but that may cut into our time there!!! Tim & Bev

Brenda and Terry were the perfect hosts. they helped in every way we needed, like helping with our luggage, advising us the best restaurants in the area and in any way they could. i highly reccommend the b & b for any age. thanks again nancy and ben

We decided last minute to head up to Amish country for Labor Day weekend. We chose Cornerstone because it was available and the price was great. When we arrived, our host was very welcoming. The place looked great. Sometimes you stay in B&B's which are very outdated (decor), but this was tastefully and comfortably decorated. The room (Front Parlor) was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast both mornings was delicious! The location was also nice because we could walk down the street to a few shops and restaurants. And it was only a short drive to other area attractions. I definitely recommend staying at this B&B if you are in the area.

This B&B was a great place to get away from it all! So clean and we were made to feel at home from the first minute we arrived.The breakfast both days we stayed were delicious and the information Brenda gave us about the area was just what we were looking for.We look forward to returning soon!

From the first hello we were sold on Cornerstone B&B. Brenda met us at the door and welcomed us with a warm smile. The rooms were warm and the bed, very inviting! Breakfast day one, omelets filled to the max with veggies and cheese, ham, fruit and the best coffee in the region. Day two, an Amish or Swiss version of a pancake with fruit jam on top and whipped cream, fruit, sausage links and more coffee! If you go hungry here, it is your own fault! Cornerstone B&B is close to everything yet tucked away in Sugarcreek. You can't go wrong here! Thank you Brenda and Terry, we will be back! Eric and Gina from WV

Stumbled across this listing at the last minute. The home is beautiful and the host was delightful. The breakfast was delicious. I would highly recommend this inn to anyone looking to stay in the Holmes county area!

Our hosts were very friendly and offered great sight seeing/shopping advice. Wonderful breakfast in a clean cozy home.

Nice big secluded room with all the amenities. Warm, friendly, and hospitital innkeepers with a great knowledge of the area. Fresh fruit and cinnamon bread french toast with real "Vermont" Maple syrup (yummy)for breakfast. All this and close to town made for a fabulous first B&B stay. Will be back !

We enjoyed our stay for our 47th anniversary! Would highly recommend the Cornerstone B&B!

The house was very beautiful and charming, beds were very comfortable. Brenda and Terry were very welcoming hosts. A wonderful breakfast was provided in the morning.

our stay was more than satisfactory. the room was clean and comfortable. there was a private entrance available for our use. the inkeeper had a shelf full of movies that were available for us to watch free of charge. she provided us with a home cooked breakfast complete with fresh fruit and coffee. i would reccommend this bed and breakfast to anyone.

Our host made us feel welcome from the start. Suggestions of places to eat and things to see helped us to plan and get the most out of our days. We stayed 4 nights and were treated to a special wake up breakfast each morning that we'll remember for a long time. Our room was clean, comfortable and private. We have no hesitation of recommending The Cornerstone to anyone visiting in this area of Ohio. Johnnie and Linda

Had a wonderful time. Brenda and Terry were so gracious and helpful. Great breakfast, too. Will definitely stay here again!

We were celebrating our 22nd wedding anniversary. Brenda was very hospitable. We had a lovely time!

We had a very big room and it was just beautiful. Not frilly - just gracious and comfortable. The owners were very friendly people and made it enjoyable. They gave us lots of inside tips on getting around the area and navigating the busy season efficiently. This is a very nice B&B and we would love to visit again.

Really enjoyed the hospitality and conversation with the inn keepers.

Enjoyed this two bedroom B&B. Had a nice front porch to sit or swing on. The innkeeper had to go away on an emergency,so her sister filled in and did a nice job. Maybe missed some of the little things since the owner was not there like cookies and drink upon arrival, but no real complaints.

An absolute amazing place! The Innkeepers - Terry and Brenda - were nicer than we could have dreamed. Beatiful place, nice location, would definitely come again!

My husband and I stayed at the Cornerstone Inn over July 4th weekend, and it was a perfect place to get away from all the holiday festivities and traffic in our home town. I took my husband there as a "mystery" weekend, and he was totally surprised. We were warmly greeted by both Brenda and Terry when we first arrived, and were given the front room with an outside door to the lovely front porch. The room was quite large with a nice size bathroom, comfy bed, and TV. Lots of movies were available to watch, as well as board games to play. It was lovely sitting on the front porch in the morning, drinking coffee, and watching the Amish buggies go by, followed by a delicious breakfast of fresh fruit, juice, muffins, eggs and strawberry bread. Brenda can tell you anything you want to know about the Amish and their lifestyle - they are quite interesting and I admire the Amish way of life. We toured an Amish house suggested by Brenda and Terry, ate at a wonderful Amish restaurant, The Good House, went kayaking on the Tuscarawas River, and biked on a rail trail. We had a wonderful weekend - thanks Brenda and Terry (and Chip)!!

Fantastic atmosphere and local knowledge

The Cornerstone is a beautiful historic home and a perfect place to stay and enjoy Amish country. Brenda makes an outstanding breakfast (we had homemade bread pudding with cranberries as a breakfast choice one morning - delicious). Brenda also gave us a fantastic map or the area, suggesting places to visit, and directed us to good areas on the river for kayaking. We visited Sugarcreek the first weekend of October during the Swiss festival. We had a fantastic time tasting cheese and wine, watching the parade that goes right past the front door of the Cornerstone B&B, and watching the Amish buggies go by.

The owners are friendly and helpful and serve a good breakfast. Rooms are comfrotable and clean.

The Cornerstone was the perfectly romantic way to spend our honeymoon. Private rooms and baths, great breakfast, and close to all attractions.

Homey feel, excellent food, good movie selection, the best front porch & swing ever. Nice, quiet town with friendly people.

Brenda is very warm, welcoming & knowledgeable of the area. breakfast was the perfect size & variety. The inn was very clean. Linens were nice & privacy was great.

Nice quiet location, great host & service.

Our first trip to Amish Country and the Cornerstone was great. Lovely room and Brenda was a great hostess with a wonderful breakfast. I would go back there anytime I visit Amish Country.

Easy to find, beautifully landscaped Victorian house. As beautiful inside as outside. Wonderful accommodations, privacy, excellent rooms, convenient and comfortable. A wonderful hostess tops it all off with food and coffee always available.

First time at a B&B and the experience was so great! Hosts made the stay so great and comfortable!

great place, kid-friendly. warm ,inviting, clean, beautiful relaxing. good value

We liked the room, hostess, and food.

This is a place I would highly recommend to all my friends and family. We stayed in the Swiss room. It is spacious, clean, quiet, and the bed is very comfortable, not to mention waking up to the smell of fresh ground coffee and a hearty breakfast that leaves you very satisfied to start off the day. At Cornerstone, we enjoyed sitting on the porch and relaxing. The owners were great tour guides around the areas for hiking and biking also. In fact, they provided bikes if you didn't have one. We liked this place so much that we've gone back already.

We never have stayed at a B&B and will never stay at a motel again. This is a dream come true, for anyone, no matter their age!

This was a great place. My husband and I enjoyed quiet, romantic swings on the porch and excellent breakfast in a beautiful house.

Brenda was an excellent hostess. Very knowledgeable. The power was out & the candle light was very good. She had great ideas about the area & places to visit. Would stay again.

We were made to feel so welcome and comfortable. It was so neat and clean. Would love to go back.

We loved it! Our room was absolutely beautiful! We stayed in the Swiss Room. It was very peacful and quiet. Brenda and Terry made you feel very welcomed, very friendly people. Breakfast was wonderful the next morning. I would stay there again and recommend The Cornerstone to anyone who is thinking about staying at a B&B! Sharen B.

Innkeeper, Brenda Franey, was gracious and very knowledgeable about all the activities around Sugarcreek. The house is charming and the rooms are lovely and thoughtfully laid out with all the amenities. Our breakfasts were delicious and made from local ingredients. The location of the Inn is convenient to all the many activities in Amish country. My daughter and I had a very enjoyable visit.

The room we stayed in was comfortable and beautiful. It was our first trip to Amish country, and we were there more for the get a way than for any particular sightseeing objective. Brenda was very helpful in providing us with multiple options for activities, even highlighting maps with suggested stops marked. I don’t stay in bed and breakfasts often, but this experience reminded me that I need to consider the B&B option more. I am definitely going to buy some Cornerstone gift certificates for family members.

the weekend was great. we were treated like royalty

This was mine and my husbands first time to Sugarcreek. I found the Conerstone on-line and was not disappointed. What a wonderful B&B. Brenda is a wonderful host. The rooms are exceptionally clean and the food was excellent. I felt like I was at home. We plan on going back and taking the family. Brenda took the time to explain about the area and gave us a map to get around. She suggested we try some of the backroads as the Amish also sell from their homes. What a great suggestion she gave us. We really enjoyed seeing the country side and found some good bargains. We will definetely recommend the Cornerstone to our friends. I can't wait to go back.

This was an excellent place to stay. The room was beautiful & the food was delicious. Lots to do in town – wineries, great food, gift shops! An excellent place to stay!

Brenda was a warm & pleasant hostess. Meals were great, rooms comfortable, clean & beautifully decorated. Our first experience in a B&B – Will do it again!!

My husband and I stayed at the Cornerstone for our "Getaway Weekend". We loved the Swiss Room. Brenda was incredibly kind and friendly. Her breakfasts are outstanding! We would highly recommend this place!

First time at a Bed & Breakfast! My mom and I had a great stay! It was like staying at a friend’s house!

Loved it!! Our innkeeper (Brenda) did an outstanding job at making us feel welcome! Will return!

THis property is outstanding!

The Cornerstone was one of the best B and B experiences we've ever had. It was exceptionally clean and Brenda, the innkeeper, was very hospitable.

This bed and breakfast was outstanding.

This was our 2nd stay at the Cornerstone. We really love Amish Country and Brenda made you feel right at home. The food was great and we took her suggestion on furniture shopping and we are so glad we did. WE are looking forward to our next visit.

We stayed in the Swiss Room August of 2006. We had a wonderful time. A very nice and private location. Just the right touch of services and privacy. We plan to stay there again this fall.

Last August 2006 was our first stay at a B & B. We totally enjoyed our stay here and will be back to Cornerstone. We stayed in the front bedroom by the porch. We could go right from our bedroom to the porch if we wanted to to watch the horse and buggies go past. Our bedroom also had an entrance to the main part of the house. The hostess does an fantastic job. She knows the area along with offering ideas that interest you. Breakfast was scrumptious!

My husband and I enjoyed a quiet rest from all the hustle and bustle, in Aug.2006. It was a private, clean, and wonderful stay. Benda was more than eager to make our stay wonderful. She gave several suggestions as to what are the good attractions to see, and was very accomidating.

I loved the house and its location. The room was wonderful too, and had its own entry. Brenda was very nice- she made you feel so at home. And her breakfasts were delicious. I had a wonderful and relaxing time and would love to go back again.

My sisters-in-law and I surprised our mother-in law for her birthday to a weekend away at "The Cornerstone". The accomodations, meals, and hospitality were impeccable! A must visit for all! Brenda the innkeeper was very helpful,and a wonderful cook to add. Can't wait to come back!

My husband and I stayed at the Cornerstone in Oct,2006. It was a very relaxing enjoyable stay. Brenda is a wonderful hostess- makes you feel at home right away. Breakfast was delicious & room cozy. She even mailed my hubby's PJ bottoms back to us.(No charge). great place!!

We have traveled a great deal and this was the best of a mini getaway. Not like a hotel/motel B&B. The owners and guests made it special. We felt relaxed and welcome. A home away from home. Thank you and we hope to be back. Dave & Muriel

Me and my girlfriend stayed there one night and you couldn't ask for a cleaner or nicer place. Brenda treated us like family and the breakfast was great. We also enjoyed the dog as well. We will be going back again soon I'm sure.

My daughters surprised me with a stay in the Swiss room at the Cornerstone for Mother's Day in 2006. We all loved the big, clean, beautiful room with a private bath. All kinds of thoughtful extras were included. Plus we brought back food for a peaceful lunch on the front porch while we watched the quiet life go by. Brenda and Terry are friendly, easy to get to know inkeepers.

My husband and I stayed at The Cornerstone in June 2006. We absolutely loved our stay! Brenda, the innerkeeper, was pleasant, knowledgeable about the area attractions and very accommodating. Breakfast was scrumptious! I'm very picky about the places I stay. I found The Cornerstone to be clean, neat, comfortable and relaxing. We hope to stay there again.
