I had a delightful stay in Melanie's charming 1800's home filled with beautiful antiques and peaceful vibes. The decor was a perfect blend of history and comfort. Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway and an unforgettable experience! Melanie, her son Chris, and Star the cat were all very friendly and welcoming. Don't miss the short drive to the riverfront, where you can take a leisurely stroll along the charming promenade, steeped in the town's rich history. It's also an ideal spot to savor a cup of coffee, relish a meal, explore antique shops, or simply unwind and enjoy the breathtaking sunset views. You can't go wrong staying at Melanie's historic home and exploring the quaint village of New Richmond. My heartfelt thanks to Melanie and Chris for graciously welcoming travelers into their beautiful home!

Penmaen is a beautiful, historic place that was once on the Underground Railroad. It is nestled in the woods on well-maintained, walkable grounds, overlooking the Ohio River. The house itself is large and rambling, affording roomy bedroom suite privacy for guests while also providing a multitude of large common spaces. Everywhere you look, inside and out, there is something to delight--whether fresh flowers, a beautiful antique lamp with statuary, a birdbath outside the breakfast nook, a bouquet of bird feathers on the backdoor, interesting books on the bookshelf, a piano with stained glass, views through antique glass, or antique furniture that looks like it could have belonged to a movie star in the 1930's. Melanie is an amazing, responsive host and a good conversationist, affording you as much privacy as you want. Penmaen is a truly magical place. A good place to act as a base for exploring nearby Cincinnati area attractions, or to spend quiet time in nature.

Interesting house, Melanie was a great host.

It was my fault (and phone maps!) that I had a hard time finding the entrance driveway to begin with. But once I did, the place could not possibly be beat, and Melanie was fantastic about helping with directions as my daughter and I were totally lost. It is a beautiful, truly historic home, spotlessly clean, really enjoyed being able to walk the grounds, fantastic views. Honestly felt right at home. Wished we were staying longer.
