Summary
Caramel Apple Orchard Inn is your personal retreat in a quiet country setting. Sit awhile on the deck overlooking the apple orchard and duck pond or stroll a bit through the garden path or nature trail. The new guest house is built in the old English horse barn style. It is not uncommon to see sand hill cranes, ducks, geese and deer on the 200 acre property. Gather around the campfire and watch the spectacular sunsets. There are 2 suites at the Inn.
Come downstairs for an unforgettable meal in the very comfortable dining room. Marty roasts green coffee beans from around the world to make some of the very best coffee you will taste anywhere. Your choices of breakfast entrees include Belgian waffles, carmel apple french toast, farm fresh eggs, scones, muffins, fresh fruits and juices and so much more. You will be served special jellies made on the farm. Jellies and marmalades are for sale year round at the Inn.
In late fall the apple crop is ready for harvest which is usually the first week of October. During this 6 week season the orchard is open also. During the apple season, you can stop in to purchase a fresh caramel apple, jellies, dutch apple pies and bags of sweet, crunchy tree ripened apples. The varieties of apples that are grown at the orchard include, Honey Crisp, Honey Gold, Cortland, Haralson, Wolf River, Connell Red, Sweet Sixteen and Keepsake. All of the apples are grown chemical free which adds to their goodness.
The Carmel Apple Orchard Inn supports the Green movement by having a tankless water heater, E-glass thermopane windows, fresh air exchanger and energy saving appliances. Over 3% of the farm's energy comes from wind power.
