The house
The Green House Bed and Breakfast is more than just another home listed in the National Register of Historic Places. It's a step back to the quiet elegance of the lavish Victorian Era.

The home was built  in 1894 with a profusion of varied elements by George Hunter Smith (banker and mine owner) as his winter home. The famous Adena was his summer home. From the entrance gate of the original iron fence to the top of the multi-gabled roof, the scene epitomizes the grand Queen Anne style of architecture. 

A parlorEntering through the original leaded glass doors, you will find the highly polished Italian-styled oak entry which radiates with refracted light from the leaded glass windows. The entry fireplace brought from Italy is complete with the original andirons. One parlor is in the Greek tradition. The library (family room) is in the English country design. The dining room is designed with cherry wood, leaded glass and cherry beamed ceilings. All first floor rooms are detailed with the finest of woods, glass and frescoes.

A bedroomThe lower level of the home contains the greenhouse. This, with the home's green exterior, gave the bed and breakfast its name. Upstairs we have four spacious rooms, each with a private bath. Join us! Spend the night, a weekend, or longer and enjoy a full breakfast surrounded by the best that the Victorian Age had to offer.
