Has anyone stayed in Amish Country?

I know it sounds kind of dorky, but I used to love going there as a child. I'd love to go back and take a tour, visit the farms, etc.

Does anyone know of a good place to stay/eat/go?

Are there even tours of Amish life of a museum?

(I'm probably making myself look stupid right now... sorry, been up since 2:30am, and have been baking to pass the time...) 

Re: Has anyone stayed in Amish Country?

  • I've been to Murphin RIdge Inn but that's more in the mini-amish country in Adams county.  I know I've been to the bigger area up past Columbus but I was a kid and my parents always camped or found the cheapest motel they could.  I responded on Firegirl's post below with a few hotels I'd like to try up there.   As far as things to do, I'm pretty sure some families will allow people to come to their home and share a meal.  It might be something the local tourist bureau's arrange.

  • If you're referring to the NE Ohio Amish country, I grew up there, I can make some good recommendations.

    I would stay at the Barn Inn ... http://www.thebarninn.com/  I've never personally stayed there, but I know a few people who have and really liked it. 

    For visiting an amish farm, there's Schrock's Amish Farm near Berlin.  I don't think they have a website.  But local tourist places would have brochures.

    If you have any other questions, let me know, I can make more recommendations.  :)
