Greetings Inngoers Reader,
Last month Randy Fought, our founder, visited The
Barn Inn B&B in the Holmes County village of Millersburg, Ohio with his family. He sends this appreciation:
"Watching the owners, Loretta and Paul Coblentz, at work serving wonderful food, encouraging guests to meet and mingle, and offering suggestions on local sights and activities, I was reminded how much I admire innkeepers for their dedication to the people they host. If you've never experienced Bed & Breakfast hospitality, I urge you to try it soon."
Read on for dozens and dozens of inspiring inns to
visit . . .
