A boutique historic inn in the heart of McConnelsville, Ohio, with comfortable rooms and thoughtful hospitality.
Travel Should Feel Restful. Too Often, It Doesn’t.
Most places promise comfort, but deliver rushed check-ins, forgettable rooms, and breakfast that feels like an afterthought.
When you finally take time away, the last thing you want is to feel like just another reservation.
You’re looking for a stay that feels easy, welcoming, and thoughtfully done — a place where the details are handled so you can truly relax.

Hospitality with Heart
We're Amy and Dan, and this is genuinely our home.
We've spent years restoring two 19th-century houses on Main Street because we believe the best stays feel personal, not transactional.
We greet you by name, remember your preferences, and ensure every detail is handled before you even think to ask. Come as a guest. Leave as a friend.

Breakfast, Prepared with Care
A Delicious Start To Your Day
Start your day the way a great getaway should — unhurried, homemade, and thoughtfully prepared.
Each morning, we serve a fresh, made-from-scratch breakfast featuring seasonal ingredients and a rotating menu of sweet and savory favorites.
Whether you’re fueling up for a day of exploring or lingering over coffee, breakfast at the inn is meant to be enjoyed — not rushed.
We take dietary needs seriously and are happy to accommodate gluten-free, dairy-free, and low-sugar preferences with care and intention.
Because here, a great stay always starts with a great breakfast.
Discover McConnelsville
Walkable Charm, Right Outside the Door
Step outside the inn and into the heart of downtown McConnelsville. Our location makes it easy to explore at your own pace — no car required, no schedule to keep.
Stroll historic streets, cross the iconic bridge over the Muskingum River, and discover locally owned shops, cozy restaurants, and a craft brewery just steps away.
Whether you’re out for a morning walk, an afternoon wander, or a relaxed evening out, downtown invites you to slow down and enjoy the moment.
Beyond town, you’ll find even more to explore:
-
The Wilds — A one-of-a-kind safari park just a short drive away
-
Historic Stockport Mill — The last remaining mill on the Muskingum River
-
Scenic Motorcycle Routes — Legendary rides like the Windy 9 and Route 555
But many of our guests tell us their favorite moments are the simplest ones — walking to dinner, chatting with locals, and coming back “home” to the inn afterward.

Meet Percy
Percy is our winged pig, a little symbol of the magic we believe in here at The Inns at 8th & Main.
Inspired by our love of vintage charm and whimsy, Percy reminds us that when care is taken and hospitality comes from the heart, wonderful things can happen.
Around here, pigs really do fly.
