As a home designer and builder as well as a pilot, this 1-1/2 flight in a C-172 from Ashland, Ohio was exciting. I had wanted to visit Fallingwater for a long time and was not disappointed. The tours are very well conducted. Visit their website for details.Fayett County Aviation at VVS has a friendly staff and a courtesy van (They give no false impressions of the appearance or reliability of the van) The van wasn't available the day I was finally able to go so one of the people there lent me their personal vehicle asking only that I put gas in it. (Did I say they were friendly?!) Fallingwater is about a 20 minute drive from the airport. There are also an Enterprize and a Country motors nearby both of which will bring a rental car to the airport. We stopped for lunch at a bar and grill place along US RT 40/119 (No beer for me of course!) called The Braddock Inn. Good food. - Submitted by FunPlacesToFly.com Member
