WELCOME TO THE SHEPHERDS INN BED & BREAKFASTThis nearly 100 yr. old home offers the atmosphere of the by-gone Victorian era with its many antiques. We are a private quiet escape tucked away in the heart of the country, just off scenic by-way 11, well worth the short drive. Although we do not reside at the B&B, our home is just a shout away in case we are needed. This arrangement provides our guests with their own space as us with ours. You will receive a warm welcome along with tasty snacks and beverages when you check in between 4 & 6 p.m.
How you spend the rest of your time is up to you. You can relax on the porch, swing in the lawn swing watching the animals in the petting zoo, listen to and watch the numerous song birds, rabbits, squirrels and occasionally you will see a deer or wild turkey, possibly a pheasant. You can also walk on our hiking trail or walk our safe scenic country roads. Maybe you would rather grab a monogrammed fluffy robe and head for the hot tub complete with colored lights and water fountains. You can also enjoy the parlor, watch a movie there or in your room or play some board games with fellow guests.
Menus are available from the local restaurants. Wireless internet is available throughout the house as well. We are well known for our gracious hospitality. We will exceed your expectations. Come, let us pamper you!!!
Enjoy a good nights sleep on our quality beds complete with luxurious high thread count linens. One guest commented that she had never slept on such awesome sheets. Another guest stated his wife is still raving about those new sheets. Awaken to the smell of coffee and breakfast being prepared.A full hot delicious breakfast is served on a lace adorned table using heirloon serving pieces. You won't have to cook your own breakfast here or do clean up.

Our hot tub is located outdoors for the ultimate in relaxation, all year long. Observe the constellations and hear the sounds of the night while relaxing under the stars.The petting zoo is a favorite for persons of all ages. The miniature Sicilian donkeys let you know if they are being ignored and are forever grateful if you acknowledge their presence. Warm springs months or fall months often bring a newborn. Bingo the llama is the ultimate favorite but to get attention from him, you MUST NOT pay attention to the donkeys first, or you will not get a kiss from him.
A gift shop on premises has an eclectic mix. A few of these are soy candles, crocheted doilies, wool/mohair hats, wool dusters, jewelry, framed pictures and homemade chokecherry, wild plum, mulberry syrups and jellys and the terrific Merino skin care products for dry skin.

WHAT AN AMAZING PLACE!! My family and I stayed here for a night and it was wonderful!!! The house was super clean and the bed was relly comfortable. She did not overlook a single detail. The breakfast was to die for. I just cannot say enough good stuff about this place. It may be a little our of the way but it is well worth the trip!!
"We had a great stay at shepherds' inn due to work related event. The proprietors pulled out the red carpet for us, even going so far as adjusting their schedule for us in order to meet our reservation needs. The breakfast and treats that were prepared by "master chef" Doris were exceptionally scrumptious and served to us by "butler" Don in full dress. Each bedroom is large, private and spotlessly clean. We were able to use the dining room to work in the evening although internet was available in the bedroom as well. Lots of little extras along the way for our comfort. Thanks for a wonderful stay." Phyllis Borman
"Nancy and I have had the privilege of stay at the Shepherds' Inn over the last few years. It is located out in the country in a farm setting. Don and Doris are wonderful hosts insuring that each guest has a relaxing stay. We enjoy the outdoors and are runners. This is a perfect place to run. You can run, jog, stroll or walk four mile square around the inn. The terrain is hilly but you will be on a road throughout the outdoor adventure. After returning from a morning run there was always an exquisite delicious breakfast." Nancy And Charles Jones
"You truly have created a little piece of heaven here on earth, you do
wonderful work and provide a marvelous service." Mark & Mary Danner"We did a murder mystery and the food was WOW!!! Nice-nice people." Sherry
"My wife was raving about the new cotton sheets (smiley)" Roger
"I have stayed in many B&B's in the US, Ireland, Scotland, Germany,
Austria, etc. This was the very best in every way!" Maureen Weller
