Carraway Guest House, for a Gatsby Get-A-Way/ Rm1

Built in the roaring 1920's, the Carraway Guest House is perfect for a romantic weekend get-a-way or a private and quiet room for when you are traveling for business. The guest room is non-smoking and features an ensuite private bath with a shower as well as all the modern amenities for guest's convenience. The Carraway Guest House is within walking distance of shopping, art studios, antique shops, restaurants, wine shops, chocolatier, beauty salons and banks. NO ADD-ON CLEANING FEES! Your room will be upstairs at the top of the stairs. The Jordan Baker Room (after the book, The Great Gatsby) is bright and sunny with three windows and is decorated in neutral colors with a splash of yellow. You'll have a lock on your door and a private bathroom with a shower inside your room. I wash ALL the bed linen, even the blankets and bedspreads after each guest stay. I also sanitize the entire bathroom, doorknobs and all cleanable surfaces after each guest stay. You may join us for conversation or have the privacy of your room or separate living room. The entire house is non-smoking; however, you may smoke in a designated area outside. This is a room in our home, and we do not allow any animals in our home due to allergies. Once you're checked in, you may have access to the living room, downstairs half bath, the stairs, hallway and your private rooms with your private bathroom with shower inside your room. You may also enjoy all of the large yard and two patios, both with patio tables, umbrellas (in season) and chairs. A large parking area is available for folks with larger utility vehicles or trailers. Myself, Marc, daughter Jennifer, or son-in-law Matt, will be available to offer recommendations and be available when needed. If we have plans for the evening, we will still be available by phone. When at home, we have a family room separate from the living room if you want privacy, but we're always available to socialize if you prefer. We are within walking distance of 4 great restaurants. For breakfast, we recommend the WigWam or Harvest Moon Cafe. For Lunch, we recommend the WigWam, Harvest Moon Cafe or Shade on the Canal. And for dinner, our favorites are Harvest Moon Cafe, Shade on the Canal or Village Wines. A local micro-brewery is scheduled to open soon within walking distance as well. If you like a walkable community with lots to do, you'll love Canal Winchester. We often say this is a community where we would love to vacation, and WE GET TO LIVE HERE! However, Columbus is only 20-40 minutes away with hundreds of hotspots, restaurants, live theater, sports and shopping. The Interstate 70/ 71/ or 270 outerbelt will take you anywhere in Columbus within 20-40 minutes. If you like the outdoors, hiking or exploring, go in the other direction 30 minutes, and you're in the Hocking Hills region, home of Old Man's Cave and miles of state parks. We are licensed and approved to be a Guest House in the City of Canal Winchester and State of Ohio; therefore a 17.5% city and state tax is included in our rate.
