Now open for tours and overnight guests and private bookings Now open for overnight guests, historical and ghost tours this home has a deep, rich history and has had past lives a many things such as a textile school, multiple congregations, a brief stint as a funeral home, and has physically moved locations four times by horse and hand and has even been lost in a hand of poker by a wayward judge!

The amazing and true story of hope chapel is one that is meant to be told, one that the current owners were completely unaware of when they purchased the dilapidated and vacant church in 2021 but one that they are now passionate about sharing.

Uh-oh look who got a little update! The church doors, which were crafted from 200 year old timbers original to the building, have gotten a coat of paint on the exterior. I love how it makes the green in the stained glass pop! What do you think?

Hope Chapel Guesthouse is certainly an imposing structure - built in 1844 and still standing strong, she echos her canal-era history, especially at night.
