We spent a night in the lovely McIlvaine Room in this beautiful 1880s inn. We had a private modern bathroom and our sitting area overlooked the main street, but it was very quiet. The inn has games in the parlor, a kitchen for use by guests and seemingly everything one might need, including water, soda, ice cream treats and an amazing coffee machine. The inn is decorated with antiques throughout. The location is good too. Breakfast is on your own.

Perfect stay for me. There was nothing I wanted that wasn't already provided. Though the Inn was "full" I never saw another living soul (I'm sorry but for me and my anxiety this is a plus). It was a lot quieter than I though it would be. Temperature was great. Everything I needed in the kitchen was available. Used the fridge when needed- coffee and tea great and always available. Again just a perfect stay in a perfect location for me.

The Black Squirrel Inn is a lovely place to stay. Communicating with the host was a breeze. The location is stunning and convenient; close to the college and the downtown. The cleanliness is excellent and has every amenity you desire. We only stayed two days but will make sure to stay there again when we visit Wooster.

I have stayed here quite a few times. It is friendly and relaxing. The breakfasts are delicious and are served with enough food for lunch, too. The owners are solicitous of their guests.I feel cossetted in this a lovely retreat. It renews me in just a few days. Even though the house is located on a modern residential street, the quiet and calm makes me feel closer in time to 1900.The garden is beautiful in the spring, summer, and fall.The only things it doesn't have are noise and chaos.

The "painted lady" style home was absolutely beautiful, filled with lovely antiques, comfortable sitting rooms and a delightful dining room with antique china gracing the dining table, and fresh picked flowers placed there each morning. Black Squirrel Inn is close to the college and downtown Wooster. My upstairs bedroom and bath were exceptional, outstanding period decorations, and a bed that allowed me restful sleep. Every room was spotless and clean. I was actually sorry to leave after our four day stay at the Inn. My son and I had traveled from Little Rock, AR to Ohio for my only granddaughter's wedding. This was the first time my son had stayed at a bed and breakfast. He had his own room and is convinced B&Bs are now the only way to "fly". We were absolutely spoiled by Fong's attention to assuring our comfort. Fong noticed right off that Brett, my son, was not drinking coffee at breakfast. When she found out he drank several glasses of water at breakfast, she immediately saw that he had a pitcher of ice water at his seat at the table each morning graced with a slice or two of fresh lemon. And the breakfasts she prepared!!!! The compote dish with vanilla yogurt, topped with fresh fruit, granola and topped with fresh blueberries and a few honey oat cheero's were a hit. Then the crepes, oh my they were excellent. Needless to say the breakfasts held our hunger at bay until early afternoons. Fong is an exceptional individual and I cannot say enough for her great abilities to give travelers a good bit of home away from home. Brett and I both gave her big hugs when we had to leave. I highly recommend this B&B. Your stay will be complete and fondly remembered.

I stayed in the Black Squirrel Inn for a week, in the McIlvaine room.I loved it, it was big and comfortable. Everything was perfect and the housekeepers made me feel like home. Specially Mrs. Elena who even prepared a Colombian breakfast for me. She really helped me a lot, even booked a taxi for me to go to the airport. I highly recommend it.

On our way back home from PA we needed a place to stay. The B&B in Wooster we had stayed at the previous weekend was fully booked so we stayed at Black Squirrel. Fong was a wonderful host. She made us breakfast earlier than normal so we could get on the road for home. The room was clean and spacious. The price was great. Breakfast was tasty. My husband and I would stay agian!

Stayed here as an overseas parent visiting The College of Wooster. Absolutely fantastic location with extremely comfortable rooms and living spaces. Fong, the innkeeper is an incredible host and would make us awesome breakfast. She is a perfect host and would stretch beyond her normal obligations and help make your stay even more memorable. I would recommend this for all parents and people visting Wooster and the college in particular.

My husband and I have spent at least three nights at The Black Squirrel Inn each summer for ten years as we attend performances in the Ohio Light Opera Festival. It is less then 3 blocks from the theatre where performances are given, and breakfasts are very good -- lovely fruit and yogurt parfaits, hot scones, nicely seasoned quiches, and orange juice. The air conditioning is excellent, very important in August. We have stayed in three of the five rooms, and all have comfortable beds and good showers. Other guests are always interesting, so breakfast conversations are fun. We came to care very much about the previous owners and love the new owners, who are so helpful and accomodating. This year, owner Fong Wong invited the OLO artistic director for breakfast one morning and the resident costume designer and her husband the next. It made for a truly memorable stay!

"Although we have only stayed in one room on both of our stays, we did tour all the rooms. All rooms are beautifully cared for, comfortable and charmingly Victorian. Two of the upstairs rooms are significantly larger and include sofas in the room. The Brothers Schwartz Room, where we stayed, is a smaller room (though more than comfortably sized) with a much larger bathroom-due to the jacuzzi bathtub! The other two upstairs rooms have showers. The two downstairs rooms are a bit larger than the Schwartz Room, but not as large as the other two rooms upstairs. The Schwartz Room is definitely the room to stay in if you want to enjoy the jacuzzi! Also, the bed was extremely comfortable."
