Cozy

Lovely place, and I appreciated the hot breakfast on the weekend. The only item I might suggest is to have a mini fridge in each room so that guests can put leftovers in... I highly recommend it!

Peace near the trails

Everything went smooth. Did not have breakfast as we had to leave by 9am and were unsure of the timing because our breakfast slip was still on the counter from the day before. The place was very clean and it was easy to find our room.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities

Looks like a poor part of town, did not feel safe. House was old, cracked walls, peeling paint, could hear any noise in the rest of the house. No lights on front porch (difficult getting in), no light in upstairs hallway. Had to use cell phone light to get into house & bedroom.

Why they chose this property

This exuberant 1892 Queen Anne Victorian house was built by Dr. Isaac Porter Primrose, and was once the Doctor’s office and the home of his family. The house has fabulous oak trim and floors, colorful stained glass transoms, and original kitchen cabinets with marble counter-top. After being a residence for well over a century, the house has now been completely restored as a Bed and Breakfast. Four colorful Guest rooms offer private baths, several of which have required very creative plumbing!

This beautiful Bed and Breakfast is across the street from our well known and famous Hyde House built in 1882.
At Primrose Bed & Breakfast cyclists are a few miles away from one of Ohio's most challenging climbs, Lick Run Hill, with it's double 's' turn at a 19% grade. ATV enthusiasts are just minutes from the Dorr Run Trail Head with over 75 miles of designated trails for off-road vehicle riders, mountain bikers and hikers through the Wayne National Forest. The Primrose is 15 minutes west of Athens and Ohio University and 15 minutes east of Old Man's Cave. It's perfect for parents and alumni visiting OU and perfect for a weekend visiting Ohio's famous Hocking Hills, named as one of Buzzfeed's stunning under-the-radar destinations to add to your bucket list.
Hocking Hills and all the beauty the State Parks have to offer is only a short 15 minute drive to Old Man's Cave, Conkle's Hollow, and RockHouse.
