As many of us reintroduce ourselves to the pleasures found outside the home, the team at Dutchman Hospitality is poised to bring back show season — big time.
“We know people are craving a safe social outlet, and we’re gearing up to give them exactly that. The show must go on,” said an enthusiastic Vicki VanNatta, public relations coordinator for the company that includes campuses in both Sugarcreek and Walnut Creek.
“Our inns have both remained open, and we’re ready to greet people at our theater once again,” Vannatta invited, noting that last year Carlisle Inn Walnut Creek was treated to an interior facelift, making it even more inviting and respite worthy.
The pent-up demand for travel means people are still looking for ways to get away from it all without having to fly. “We offer the escape they’re looking for, the gorgeous surroundings and the five-star service they crave,” she promised.
“Whether you choose to stay at the Carlisle Inn Walnut Creek, or the Carlisle Inn Sugarcreek, you’ll be treated to the scent of fresh-baked cookies filling the air, along with a free, deluxe continental breakfast,” she said. “And our Sugarcreek inn boasts an indoor pool and hot tub.”
Within steps of each inn you’ll find the Dutch Valley Restaurant or Der Dutchman, both of which are owned and operated by the group. On the Sugarcreek campus, a bakery, gift shop, market with fresh deli meats and cheeses, and the Ohio Star Theater round out the appeal.
