Within minutes from Berlin, Sugar Creek, Millersburg, and Charm, Ohio, The Chestnut Barn is located in the heart of Amish country in the quaint and historic farming town of Winesburg, Ohio. Approximately 7 miles from the bustling tourist area (Berlin), the Chestnut Barn provides a true picture of Amish life in Holmes County. Surrounded by farms and rolling hills, long walks are a wonderful experience. Although our little town does not even boast a traffic light, you will be just steps away from the Winesburg Park which has a large playground and picnic pavilion. A few steps in the other direction is our historic general store. Not only will you find a deli serving Amish meats and cheeses, our general store also has a carry out which serves a varied menu that includes the area's most popular pizza, roasted chicken, and a full service ice cream shop. Amish restaurants and shops are just a short drive in any direction.

Please be advised that even though it is quite a spacious house, it is not suitable for small children or the elderly. It is not handicap accessible. On the main (ground) floor the downstairs bedroom is one step down from the rest of the floor (not quite evident in pictures) and the shower room is also one step bellow the main level. For people using a walker or a wheelchair, we regret to inform you that unfortunately this is not an ideal property to rent.

Located In the back yard of a c.1830 (chestnut) log house, this recently transformed barn has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a giant kitchen and a great room which can be used for gatherings, seminars, or group meetings and fun get togethers.

There are numerous sites to see and Amish country life to be experienced here in Holmes county all in the vicinity of this old barn with modern comforts and furnishings.

The rules were ridiculous

My family probably spent at least an hour abiding by "the rules" prior to leaving. Everything from collecting all trash to making sure floors were clean (which was difficult with the falling leaves outdoors). There was no shampoo or soap in the shower/bathing area. There was some watered down liquid soap in the dispenser in one of the bathrooms. No soap at all in the other. Thank goodness there was a Dollar General nearby! On the plus side, we did have plenty of towels and bedding. The beds were hard and rooms were not handicapped accessible. I almost wiped out on the stairs, and then discovered later that there were nightlights near the extra bedding. Blinds are needed on the front door and door the kitchen. On the positive side, the rooms and kitchen were pretty. The location was centered nicely around all the activities we had planned.

NICE FOR GIRLS WEEKEND

BEDS COULD BE MORE COMFORTABLE. CONSIDERING THAT THIS IS A RESTORED BARN, WARM SETTING. EVEN THOUGH IT IS SAID TO SLEEP 12, THE NUMBER OF TOWELS AND OTHER LINENS WOULD BE A CHALLENGE. WE ONLY HAD 8 FOR ONE NIGHT AND 7 FOR THE OTHER NIGHT AND THEY WERE GLAD THEY BROUGHT A COUPLE TOWELS OF THEIR OWN. I DID NOT GET AN EMAIL WITH THE DOOR CODE PRIOR TO GETTING THERE BUT WHEN I CALLED OWNER, HE RESPONDED WITH CODE AND APOLOGY. OVERALL, MY GIRLS HAD A GREAT TIME.

Unexpected REQUIREMENTS

Let me start by saying I waited over a month to do my review because I wanted to cool down. In general, it was a fairly nice place for a group of 6. However, I wish I could attach pictures of the list of cleaning requirements and the dangerous front sidewalk. There does not seem to be a way to do that. Even though it said not handicapped accessible the sidewalk was a NIGHTMARE in midst of repair with stepping stones at an angle and no mortar. Even sure footed and able people had great difficulty. I guess what upset me the most was compounded with embarrassment. I was the trip planner for 5 of my very dearest friends from Montana for a 5 day 3 state tour. Every step of the 5 day tour I planned with care and visited personally before including on the tour. INCLUDING a previsit to the Chestnut Barn. The contract alluded to the fact that the "Barn" rules would need to be followed. At no time was I ever presented with the rules except NO shoes in barn and NO smoking in barn. The list of rules was overwhelming. I will name a few: ...Before leaving - Clean the stove- refrigerator - microwave, dishes and counter tops. Mop all floors and vacuum rugs. The list went on and on and on!! I was humilated that my vacationing friends had to work like motel maids plus the nightly rate!!! ALL of this should be disclosed prior to paying the deposit. I think any thoughtful host would block out a week to finish the sidewalk so no one would get injured. On top of everything, there were tons ants in the upstairs bathroom. I texted to complain and ask for spray or something and about an hour later the wife ( co - host) came in with more ant traps (there were alread some by the front door). With a crabby look, her first words were... "someone must have been eating in the bathroom if there were ants there!" Oh Really??? We had one meal and it was pizza - I highly doubt anyone in my group took food upstairs into the bathroom to eat it! Overall - I would not go back.

Family Genealogy Trip

The Chester Barn vacation house was the perfect place for me and my cousins to stay on our trip to research our family tree. The nice big kitchen and great room was perfect for us to all get together and visit and share meals together. Everything we could’ve needed was provided. Including extra things in the kitchen that you don’t always get other places. I highly recommend it to anyone who is planning to visit that area!

Birthday weekend in Amish Country.

We were very happy with the Chestnut Barn, it was just as advertised. The place was clean and great for relaxing and playing games at the dining table. Winesburg turned out to be a good base for all the places we wanted to visit: Heini's Cheese Chalet, Lehman's Hardware, Berlin, and the Amish Door restaurant. And don't forget the delicious pizza right across the street! We would definitely recommend staying at the Chestnut Barn.

Our stay

It was a very clean place to stay. The store by the place was wonderful. It was just as it said in the listing. The only thing I see is the walkway out side should be maybe a solid surface because of tripping hazard. Also the front door you may want to put up a blind or curtains. We will probably come again and stay it was wonderful.

Great house

We spent a COVID Thanksgiving here with our immediate family. The house was great and very spacious! We had everything we needed. The only thing we would have liked is live TV. They only have streaming services so we were unable to watch the Thanksgiving day parade. But, we didnt let it ruin our day. We just played games instead.
