The Inn at Honey Run is a boutique hotel in Holmes County, Ohio near Millersburg in Ohio's Amish Country.

The hotel consists of a main building housing 25 rooms and suites and a fine-dining restaurant and lounge; 12 "honeycomb" rooms, which are built into the side of a hill on the property a short distance from the main building and have been compared to hobbit holes; and 2 cottages. [2] [3] [4] All accommodate two people. The hotel is adults-only. [5] [6] [7] [8] [9]

The site covers 56 acres and includes a mile-and-a-half walking trail that accesses ten outdoor art installations and thirty haiku. [5] [10] [6] [11] In 2019 the fossilized tooth of a woolly mammoth was found on the property by a hotel guest. [12]

The hotel was established in 1982 by Marge Stock and Margret Schlicting. [13] [14] It was owned by Phil Jenkins for a time and was purchased by Jason Nies in 2009. [10] [15]

In 2017 Town & Country Magazine wrote that the inn's restaurant, Tarragon, was one of the most scenic in the country according to Open Table. [16]
