See Inside the Evansville Community Pottery Studio & Tower Estate AirBnB

I recently discovered a hidden gem in Evansville's Haynie's Corner: the Tower Estate, a historic Queen Anne-style home that houses the Community Pottery Studio and a charming Airbnb. Built in 1865, the home was later owned by Frederick Lauenstein, who added the iconic tower, stained glass windows, and hand-crafted features. Pete and Amy Emery bought the property in 2016 and have been restoring it ever since, with Pete also running the pottery studio in a building on property. The studio offers monthly memberships and classes, while the Airbnb room, with its stunning stained glass windows, provides guests with a private retreat. Pete, who discovered pottery in college, now shares his passion by teaching the craft to locals. For more details, visit towerestateandstudio.com. Source: Evansville Living
