  • The Deeds Carillon illuminated for the holidays. An awesome spectacle and an awesomely short-lived road side attraction!

The Deeds Carillon, the largest carillon in Ohio had been transformed into the shape of a holiday tree towering 200 feet in the air and glowing with 20,000 white lights.

The plan was for the Carillon Tree of Light to be turned on nightly through New Year’s Day and be accompanied by the bells playing a medley of holiday classics on the hour.

I went on Sunday night and stood in wonderment of the melodic bells and the strands of light enhancing the already majestic silhouette of the carillon. 

Overnight, wind gusts in excess of 40 or even 50 miles per hour damaged many of the strands of light. By morning, the damage was such that the display was beyond repair and will now be taken down for the year.

Quite a whirlwind tale for the inaugural lighting of the the Deeds Carillon.

Quiet spot in Dayton

Property was very clean and had everything we needed to cook a basic meal. Area is quiet and beds were comfortable. I appreciated the extra blanket in each bedroom as I tend to be cold at night. We loved the character of the house and would not hesitate to stay again the next time we're in Dayton.

The Perfect Stay

We had a great experience staying at the cottage. Traveling with 8 month old twins and a 3 yr old is not easy, but the hosts made it very simple for us. They had a pack n play, portable crib, and high chair for us. The house was extremely clean, and in the perfect location. The instructions given by the host was clear and easy to follow. We will definitely consider staying here in the future.

Fantastic house!

This house was absolutely perfect! It had everything we needed and was in a great location. It was very central to anywhere that we needed to go, while we were visiting. We will definitely stay here again, when we come to visit our family and friends. After we had left the property, the owner let us know they found one of our sweatshirts and they were kind enough to allow us back to pick it up! We are so grateful for that. Any contact we had with the owner prior to, during and after the stay, has been very prompt and kind. We loved this space and can’t wait to stay again.

Very nice property!

The communication and check in was very easy. Our host responded promptly to our questions and concerns. It is a very nice house that accommodated five adults and an almost one years old. We spend our first Thanksgiving out of state! We love to cook and that kitchen was good enough to recreate our Thanksgiving just like home. We borrow son pots and things from our son who is station in Dayton, OH. The only downside of this property the lack of another shower. However, we managed to take turns and plan accordingly for our activities. The location was perfect, few minutes from downtown Dayton and other amenities. So Thank You!!!
