Tranquil Country Loft and backyard paradise in the rolling hills of Gambier, OH
Welcome to our backyard paradise! We’d like to invite you to relax in our country loft, overlooking an inground pool, koi pond, firepit and pavilion. Our home, surrounded by organic crops, sits on 115 acres, evoking a sense of peace and tranquility. You are welcome to enjoy a fire in the pit, or swim in the heated pool when the weather permits. We are conveniently located 3 miles between Gambier and Kenyon College and Mount Vernon and the Nazarene University. This is a private stand alone, unit with a private entrance and driveway located in our backyard above a workshop. It is accessed via a stairway and is not suitable for people with limited mobility. It is a spacious 968 square foot, one bedroom apartment with a fully equipped kitchen, 65 inch TV, and top of the line, Olhausen pool table and matching tabletop shuffleboard for your entertainment. It is game themed with lots of natural light, rustic in décor, but loaded with amenities. The kitchen cupboards are made from recycled barn siding with corrugated tin inserts that came from an old barn. The kitchen countertops are made from zinc that over time develops a beautiful patina and the bar countertop is a walnut live edge slab. The cozy bedroom features a queen size bed with 100% cotton sheets, small TV and antique dresser to store your belongings. The roomy bathroom features a corner shower stocked with R & R Essentials toiletries. The living room, with a comfortable La-Z-Boy sofa, matching chair and recliner will make you feel right at home. We are truly in the country but close to town. We live on a less traveled country road where you can take a walk and enjoy all the sounds that nature has to offer or sit by the koi pond and watch the fish as you listen to the rush of water cascading over the rocks into the pond. We will greet you upon arrival and will be here for your assistance, but not in your way. Whether you are here on business, visiting family or just wanting a romantic getaway, this is the place for you. Wont you come and see for yourself!

Very pleased to have found this little home. Quiet, relaxing, and a wonderful backroad location.
We absolutely loved our time there. Patti met us when we arrived to show us around. The loft was so cutely decorated, immaculately clean, and instantly you felt like you were home away from home. The bed was very comfortable and the water pressure in the shower was great. The snacks in the kitchen, sodas in the fridge, and the toiletries in the bathroom were a nice touch. We cannot wait to come back and stay next year! Thanks again!
We had a great weekend stay at Dan and Patti’s delightful property. They greeted us upon our arrival and made us feel right at home. The country loft was very well appointed and decorated, and immaculately clean. The pool table and shuffleboard table provided great entertainment for our guests. It’s very conveniently located, close to Kenyon and Mt Vernon. Dan and Patti offered us the use of their beautiful backyard, including a firepit, heated pool and koi pond. We will definitely book here again!
