Founded in 1806, Geauga County Ohio rests in the state's Northeast Appalachian Plateau region.

Rolling hills, natural lakes and ledges beckon travelers to explore the area's rich cultural history.

The county is also home to thousands of Amish folk who live mainly in its eastern townships.

In the 1880's some of the Amish from Holmes and Wayne Counties migrated to this beautiful area.

They settled down here to establish their homes and farms and to continue their self-sufficient, simple lifestyles in a new place.

Middlefield and its surrounding countryside is of course the hub of the area's Amish population.

Burton and Huntsburg also have significant Amish establishments as well. There are some 60 Amish schools in the county.

Chardon also boasts an old-fashioned mill featuring stone ground flours and baking mixes.

While in the area you must experience Punderson Manor Resort and Conference Center, one of the Ohio State Park Resorts.

We highly recommend the weekend brunch buffet, it has choices beyond imagination and description!
