Hard to find but once you do it is well worth it - very very private. Big question was which porch or area did we want to sit in - they were all lovely. Beds comfortable. It was a very very nice stay.

A Wedding Weekend

The house was clean and pretty well kept. We did not eat there except for breakfast (2 days). The kitchen was adequate and well equipped. The Kin-bed-room had unfolded sheets and blankets in the closet - ewwww! I was disheartened to find that there were only 2 bathrooms (I had thought there were 3 - I misread), and it was VERY inconvenient that the upstairs bathroom was in the king-bed-room and the other upstairs room tenants needed to come through (our) bedroom to use it - day and night. Another major issue was that a senior family member (age 91) routinely locked the room door after early bedtime - locking other bedroom tenant out with no key to make entry! There was also no light bulb in the stair well making a poorly lit stairs.

Comfy, cozy farmhouse

Stayed at Walnut Hill because we were in town for a friend’s wedding! Location was very convenient for us! Recommend updating the coffee maker, adding signs at the entrance of the home - hard to detect off of E Second Street. House has a bit of a musty smell but overall very comfortable!

Great Fall Trip at Walnut Hill

My family and I had a great time staying at the main house at Walnut Hill. We came in to the area for a fall getaway. The check in and check out process is quick and easy and the rental agency that looks over the house was very responsive and helpful (thanks Missy!). The main house is very beautiful and has large open bedrooms with plenty of storage space in each bedroom. We all enjoyed the comfy beds and everyone loved the coffee room. The view from the front porch and other areas of the yard is great. We had great times around the fire pit on the back side of the house. We all enjoyed seeing the deer in the yard on most mornings and evenings. I hope we can make it back to this area sometime soon and will plan to stay at the Walnut Hill estate again.
