    Ron and Anne were very warm, gracious hosts when we stayed at Country Willows. They were very helpful when we asked for suggestions on sights to see and recommended local restaraunts that were outstanding! Breakfast was so tasty and Anne used herbs and vegetables from their garden so dishes were very fresh and colorful....not to mention delicious! We had a great time and rested very well each night after a day of sightseeing. Thank you Ron and Anne for a wonderful time. We will recommend your B&B to our friends and family for a great stay! Thanks! Ted and Kathy Smetzer Ashland, OH


    A wonderful 2 day retreat.

    We've stayed at B&B's across the country, large and small, and Country Willows ranks among the best. Our hosts were friendly and engaging, sharing tidbits about their family and and their world travels. The house is decorated with antiques, family photos, books, and comfortable furniture. Our second floor room had a great king-size bed, huge bathroom and warm-feeling decor. Our 2 breakfasts were more than generous; with fresh fruit and yogurt, wonderful baked french toast, Belgian waffles, fresh eggs and perfect coffee — more than enough to fuel our bicycling excursions around the area. We'll be back for sure.
