Great Stay

The Loft at Granny Creek was perfect for our stay. It was super clean and comfortable. The property was only a short drive to town, but gave us that country feel that we remembered from childhood. I definitely recommend and will book it again when we come back to Mt Vernon to vist

A beautiful place to stay. Met our needs well. Only gave 4 stars because middle bedroom was hot but it was a VERY hot weekend and hard for air conditioners to keep up everywhere. There was a fan to help. Otherwise, it was great!

Pictures were extremely accurate as to the amenities provided at the loft. Very tastefully decorated. The only complaint were the beds. A little stiff for my liking. But everybody's different.

A reunion with a dear friend

If you need quiet, relaxing way to unplug(but still have wi-fi) There isn’t a better place to stay in Ohio than with John in Mount Vernon.Tons of space to unwind. Two great spots to sit outside and see cows mosey through a meadow in close distance and deer comfortable in their natural setting.So visit John, grab some good food to cook in the spacious kitchen and remember to enjoy the simple specialness of life.
