Beautiful Home located in Amish Country
This home was beautiful, clean, comfortable, cozy, and spacious. We loved staying here again. We love the owners. They are so kind and even helped us unload our bags. Also it was only several minutes to town which was a huge plus.

Abundant natural light, gorgeous country views
Absolutely wonderful property and hosts in a location that offers lots of things to do locally and regionally. A beautiful, spacious home with multiple gathering areas indoors and out, huge custom kitchen with everything you might ever need, and windows in every room that provide great light all day and cozy comfort at night. Totally private, at the end of a lovely winding driveway. Ample parking for a group. The on-site owners, Tim and Cherie, are gracious hosts and clearly enjoy making guests comfortable and well cared for. My aunts and I had the best time and all 7 of us had space to be together or alone when we chose. I highly recommend Tim and Cherie and Bluebird's Perch. Best place ever!

The property is just as it appears, a really nice place for multiple people to stay and interact with each other. The owners are super nice and attentive. They offered and let some of us be a part of feeding their horses. The views are spectacular for a country setting, the property is quiet and secluded. I highly recommend it. I would suggest you use the central air and air conditioning provided as neighboring farms use manure on their fields. If you want a cool breeze sit on the porch. Their is plenty to do about 2 miles down the road so it’s close by. Charming area.

This is a fantastic place to gather for any type of intimate family gathering. Ours was four siblings & spouses--all senior citizens. The location is private, spacious, with beautiful views, and yet, it is close to local attractions. We would definitelly stay here again.

Annual Fabric Aquisition Trip
We had a wonderful stay at the Blue Birds Perch. It was perfect for the seven woman that came. Tim and Cheri went above and beyond in providing what we needed. We enjoyed meeting them. There is a fantastic view from every window in the house. Our favorite was sitting on the porch in the morning with coffee and watching the sun rise. Thank you again to the Borg's for providing your beautiful home to us. The Illinois Girls and the Ohio Girls. :-)
