Experience Walnut Creek
The hill tops of Walnut Creek offer some of the most beautiful views that can be seen in the area. Drink in the scenery as you look out over gorgeous valleys and rolling hills.
A small rural village located on State Route 39 between Sugarcreek and Berlin, it's a natural stop.
Whether it's furniture, fences, rental equipment, antiques, inspirational gifts, flea markets, chocolate, cheese, ice cream, a great meal with a scenic view or a peaceful nights sleep - this is the place to find it all.
It's become one of our favorite getaways in Holmes County.
Say Cheese!

| Walnut Creek Cheese
|
We hardly ever pass through the area without stopping at Walnut Creek Cheese. Don’t let the name fool you though, they have far more than just cheese. From the village-looking exterior design to the great shopping and good eats inside, this is a required stop!
We’ll often grab lunch from their café—the fresh salads are a meal in themselves—and then browse through the shops. The shops range from gifts & housewares to a regular grocery store with deli meats, cheeses, bulk foods, fresh produce and fresh-cut meat.
After shopping, we visit the Mud Creek Creamery by the deli and get some ice cream. Want a bit of advice? Unless you are super hungry - or not on a diet - get the kids cone! The single is actually two scoops, the double is really three scoops. You might also want to put your cone in a cup - they're still big.

| Walnut Creek Cheese New Interior
|
They have recently remodeled the interior of the café and grocery areas of the store. If you saw it before, you'll hardly believe your eyes now. They have done a spectacular job - absolutely outdone themselves!
There's a new mezzanine level with antiques from Hershberger Antiques, a huge fireplace mantel beautifully restored and an expanded sitting area for eating.
The grocery section has been greatly expanded and even includes a new test kitchen. Overhead are beautiful displays that make it look and feel like a quaint hometown from yesteryear.
Ode To Chocolate
If you love chocolate and want to indulge that sweet tooth, stop by Coblentz Chocolates. They have a viewing area where you can watch Amish and Mennonite ladies make the tasty treats. Enjoy the nostalgic showroom with the old fashioned look of tin ceilings. Pick and choose your favorite chocolates from the counter or buy it already packaged in boxes of assorted flavors.
Peace And Quiet
One day not enough? Spend the night in the beautiful Carlisle Village Inn. The Inn, shops and restaurant, owned and operated by Dutch Hospitality, are the companions to the Sugarcreek Carlisle Inn and surrounding complex.

| Oak Ridge Inn
|
Another Amish Country hidden gem in the area is the Oak Ridge Inn. Located just south of State Route 39, it boasts unspoiled views of beautiful farm valleys.
We were impressed with every aspect of our stay from reservations to check-out and everything in between!
They have eight separate rooms and suits each featuring a different type of hardwood woodwork and beautiful décor to create a unique personality to each room.
