Originally built as a small family home in 1875—when Ulysses S. Grant was president—this historic home has been thoughtfully expanded and modernized over time. Kitchens were relocated, rooms added, and patios, porches, and mudrooms transformed into living spaces filled with vintage charm and stylish interiors.

It's the perfect getaway for couples, families, or even business travel. With beautiful interiors and social-worthy details, DuskHaven is as photogenic as it is comfortable.

Whether you're here for a festival, a romantic weekend, or to work remotely, you'll appreciate the private entrance, washer/dryer, and reliable connectivity for work or play.

When you step into the large backyard, you'll find yourself in a quiet retreat, complete with comfy patio furniture, a hammock, a cozy fire pit, recliners, and a great view of the sunset. It's the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring.

As a bonus, it's just a short walk to grab a pizza or pick up essentials at the nearby convenience store.

Whether you’re here for family visits, Hall of Fame events, or just a weekend escape, Duskhaven 1875 is the kind of place guests return to again and again.
