Welcome

Whether entering through the cast iron fence to the front door or by way of the trellised back courtyard, guests cannot help but be enveloped by the special warmth of this 1845 home built by one of Kenyon College’s master carpenters.

Ideally located across from the main campus of Kenyon College, The Gambier House has been lovingly restored and decorated. It features a formal parlor, family room, fireplaces, antiques, hidden staircases as well as five bedrooms and an attached suite. Enjoy the tranquility of the weeping cherry courtyard or watch the world go by on a front porch rocker.

A gourmet breakfast is a prime attraction at the House. Specialties include country frittata, savory souffle, whole-wheat buttermilk pancakes and french toast. All dishes are made with local ingredients when in season.

No matter the season or the reason, The Gambier House is a welcome retreat and center of operations for all your Knox County or Kenyon College needs.

The Gambier House has central air and heat and is a non-smoking bed and breakfast.
