We really had a good time and a great stay. Tracy was very friendly & courteous and saw to our every need. Everything was great and everything we needed was supplied. We really enjoyed our stay and will be back next year, hopefully. Made some good friends also. 11/2/07

Tracy - Well... Greenbriar Ranch was every bit of the beauty and serenity I'd hoped it would be. We each enjoyed our specially themed rooms, the views from our windows and all the little amenities you so thoughtfully provided. And then the snow topped it all off as we woke up Friday morning to see it flaking down from the sky. I feel honored to be your first reservation! And am so happy that you've already had so many others to stay. You are a kind and gracious hostess going the extra mile! With every good wish. P.S. Thanks for the flowers and wine too!! 12/1/07

Bob and Nancy Tholen,

Eric & Penny Petersen West Alexandria, Ohio
Thank you so much for a great stay. We were able to enjoy the outdoors to the fullest. Your property is wonderful. While my husband and older boys were out turkey hunting early in the morning, the younger boys and I explored the woods. We loved skipping rocks in the pond, bouncing on fallen trees and searching for morel mushrooms. In the afternoons we enjoyed frisbee golf - tons! Thanks for providing the discs. We also went to Chillicothe and visited the Adena Museum (very interesting) and enjoyed lunch on the patio of the Old Canal Resturant. It was great. Thank you for providing such a comfortable place to stay. You provided everything we needed, down to the finest detail. Tracy, you were a great hostess. Thanks for the banana bread. The boys also, really enjoyed hanging out with your son. We had a wonderful family get away. Hopefully we get back next year. 4/23/08

Thank you for everything! We thought we would be roughing it in our house while we worked this weekend - no water or appliances. We really appreciated being able to come back to luxury every evening. We look forward to being neighbors! 8/10/08

Kathy Turner, Hannah. Portsmouth, Ohio
Tracy, Thank you so much for everything!! I am sitting here Tuesday morning drinking my tea - enjoying the peaceful moment ( something us moms don't get often) and I'm thinking of all the love and care you have really put into your beautiful retreat - the little added extras you wouldn't see in the other local cabins. The real personal concern you have for your renters is something you don't see these days. We all thank you again and plan to be back again!! I hope great blessing for you and your family. 8/19/08

We really enjoyed our stay at your "Lodge House"!
It was the first time in many years that didn't have to cook Thanksgiving Dinner, but we came to our daughter's to be with them at their cabin in the woods. We have enjoyed ourselves here in your nicely furnished place. Our other daughter joined us from Nashville, TN. and Kelsey and Drew. It was very peaceful here and lovely to look out at the woods and nature. It was a comfortable and relaxed "get-away". Thank you. 11/26-27/08

A new year, a new beginning. We had a very nice time getting away from it all. Enjoyed the time spent with my 2 sons, my mom Jenny, my brother in from college Rick and my best friend Amber. We ate, we laughed, played cards, listened to music and just enjoyed the atmosphere, Tracy, here's to you and yours in the new year. "have one of the best yet!! Look forward to coming back. Thanks. 12/31/08 - 1/3/09

The cabin is everything we could dream it was and more. A family emergency brought us in from out of town, several of us from several towns with young children) and Tracy saw to it that we didn't have anything to worry about other than our own family needs. Thanks. This area is beautiful and we hope to come back to the cabin soon. Thanks. 3/8/09

Thanks for being so nice and cooperative. we really like the serenity and location. We really liked sitting around the fire as well as the peace and quiet. This place was just what my friends & I were looking for. The six of us listened to music, played cards, and did a whole lot of lounging around. we made homemade pizza and had awesome big breakfasts. 3/13-15/09

Hi & WOOF to everybody that reads this! From our point of view, this place is great! See, we're dogs from the city & our humans brought us here with them as a little getaway. We hiked in the woods and there was LOTS of interesting smells. The air was fresh and clean. We sunned ourselves on the deck and fell asleep since it was quiet and peaceful. The windows of the cottage were nice and low so we could look out anytime. We barked at some strange noises in the night. We'll try to get to know Tabby better next time but here human was very nice. Well, it's back to the city in the morning after a good rest in the King size bed! See Ya! 4/17-19/09

Mike, Holly & Ellie Cincinnati, OH
We had a great relaxing weekend! The cabin was a perfect getaway. Our most exciting moment was spending 45 min. in the closet due to a tornado warning which reported that a tornado had been sighted by the Paint Creek Sate Park and was headed for Bainbridge. good fun! We enjoyed our time hanging out on the deck, barbecuing, and exploring the area. We look forward to coming back in the near future! 5/31/09

Howard, Judy & Brian Hespen - Clarkston, Michigan
We enjoyed our stay in your lovely cabin. We appreciate all the time you spent decorating each room. Our son, Brian, had fun walking the trails in the woods. Being a teenager, he also liked having his own TV. Our tow dogs, Bandit and Shadow, rallly like walkin in the woods with us. >as t might after the moon went down, the stars were beautiful in the sky. The popcorn and hot cocoa were yummy! Everything was truly comfortable and we felt right at home . We were able to have a special Thanksgiving with our family in Greenfield. Thank you so much. 11/25 - 28/09

We had an awesome time here in Bainbridge and at your cabin. It is absolutely beautiful and we really enjoyed staying in it! I lived our evening walks and early morning walks as well- we never get a chance to do tat in Cleveland or China. Another good experience wast attempting to make a fire! Let's just say it wasn't exactly roaring. We did succeed in making a snowman thought! Well, we wanted to thank you for showing us around town on Monday - It was great getting the scoop on the best restaurants and bakery's! We loved our apple fritters and warm pretzel. Again thank you for making our Christmas vacation such a memorable one. We hope your plans for the future come true! P.S. Jazmin, I had so much fun playing with you - you are so sweet! 12/20-23/09

What a wonderful "Retreat". the location and serenity was wonderful. We enjoyed the fire pit and the deck for our morning coffee. It was , also, nice to have Tabby visit us -what a well behaved dog. Tracey - We hope your plans for the future expansion come true. best of luck to you and your family. 4/18-22/10

John & Susan Lee - Grove City, OH
Tracy, we really enjoyed coming to a new area.. would not have even known about this lovely cabin, if not for picking up your brochure at Rocky Creek Sate Park (2 years ago) leaned that sleeping in that lovely king size bed was way better than waking up on the ground. All the "group campers" were envious. We plan on returning to get out of the hustle & bustle of the city (away from all the gadgets) 5/31/10
