Clean well maintained motel. Located in an Amish area with interesting local attractions. I attended a concert at Bluegate Performing Arts Center and it’s within 1/2 mile of the hotel. Free breakfast buffet was OK. This hotel is similar to a Holiday Inn.

The Farmstead has never disappointed me as a guest. The rooms are quiet, clean and nicely sized. The lobby area is charming and welcoming. Surprisingly, my grown children and I wound up playing a game of HORSE on the basketball court--so fun and hardly planned. Breakfast was nice, and the location across from the flea market was perfect!

The room was beautiful and comfortable. The staff was so so friendly and what an amazingly calm atmosphere. Great breakfast and the pool was great. Unfortunately they are remodeling the hot tub area and I wish I would have known that. However seeing the construction outside and inside ill be excited to see what's coming.

A nice, clean facility. Close to the flea market/auction. Rooms were very clean. I would liked to have a desk or table top in the room to access laptops or store things. 2 sinks were nice and the bathroom was large. I would stay there again. The hot tub was out of service but they are replacing the whole pool area.
