Kathleen Baxter
The Baxter House architecture is a warm blend of modern and craftsman design styles. Wooden floors, lots of window light, natural, freshly ironed linens, toiletries and cleaning products will welcom you. We are conveniently walkable to downtown eateries, pubs and local entertainment venues - out of the bustle in the historic Kerrytown Neighborhood, a quiet tree lined street.
Kathleen Baxter here - foodie and innkeeper (once a cookbook author, early childhood educator, publisher; now a gardner, ukulele player and house marm). The Baxter House has been welcoming guests for nearly a decade. You are windows for my world... I truly believe the old Irish addage - we live in the shelter of each other. I can offer you a private room for one or two or a fully equipped apartment for family, coleagues or friends - a home-away-from-home. Welcome!
Kerrytown is a novel area, saved by elders who wanted a multi-cultural, multi income, multi-age neighborhood, and succeded. We enjoy having the train station, Kerrytown Concert House, small independent businesses - like Collected Works, Zingerman's, the Peoples Food Coop, and eateries like - Casy's Pub, the Gandy Dancer and the Detroit Street Station a short walk away in our community.
