Ohio bed and breakfast stays for an authentic all-American vacation
Visitors to Ohio bed and breakfast establishments have usually come on business or to get to know the all-American “Buckeye State”, birthplace of seven U.S. presidents, the place where the first professional baseball team was formed, and the origin of that perennial favorite, the hot dog. Ohio is in the big-hearted Midwest and has something for every member of the family. The attractions range from natural wonders to arts and culture to sports, amusement parks and historic sites. Families love to visit Ohio and the best way to experience the state is to stay in an Ohio B&B, lodge or inn for a couple of days or the duration of your stay. There is a healthy mix of new and old attractions in Ohio. You can go from serene countryside, traditional crafts and the decidedly antiquated Amish communities to modern entertainment zones and interactive museums in the space of an hour. Or you can stay on the Lake Erie Islands and enjoy its lovely beaches and atmospheric waters.
There are lots of lovely Ohio bed and breakfast businesses catering for visitors who want to rock and roll! Since it was built in 1995 in Cleveland, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has welcomed visitors from all over the US and the rest of the world to explore the roots, legends, and history of rock music. But Ohio is not all down-home. It grew into an industrialized state due to its ports along Lake Erie, its abundant rivers and fertile plains. Ohio is one of the nation's industrial leaders with important manufacturing centers located in or near Ohio's major cities including Akron, Canton, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Dayton,
Toledo, Youngstown and Steubenville. The state is also the eastern end of the corn and meat belts. Ohio’s fertile soil produces soybeans, oats, corn, greenhouse and nursery products, wheat, hay and fruit. More than half of Ohio's farm revenue comes from dairy farming and raising livestock. There is plenty of Ohio bed and breakfast accommodation in the farming areas. Tourism is valuable to Ohio. Attractions other than those mentioned above include the Indian burial grounds at Mound City Group National Monument, Pro Football Hall of Fame at Canton, Perry's Victory International Peace Memorial and the homes of presidents Grant, Taft, Hayes, Harding, and Garfield. There is always an Ohio B&B lodge or inn close to where you want to explore.
