Tucked in the heart of Ohio’s Amish Country, our serene retreat transforms beautifully with the changing year, inviting visitors to return again and again.
Fall: A Tapestry of Color and Comfort
Autumn is one of the most breathtaking seasons at Honey Run. As the hills of Holmes County ignite with vibrant reds, oranges, and golds, the property becomes a haven for leaf peepers and photographers. Guests love to explore the walking trails as the fallen leaves crunch underfoot and the cool air sets the perfect pace for a stroll.
Our hillside Honeycombs and cottages offer cozy retreats with fireplaces, ideal for snuggling up after a day outdoors. Tarragon, our on-site restaurant, highlights seasonal flavors like roasted squash, apple-inspired desserts, and hearty harvest dishes. Fall at The Inn is peaceful, colorful, and full of warmth.
Winter: A Quiet, Cozy Wonderland
For those seeking rest and renewal, winter is one of the most serene seasons at Honey Run. Snow blankets the landscape in white, transforming the wooded property into a peaceful wonderland. Guests often retreat to their private rooms or cottages to warm up by the fire, sip tea, and enjoy the silence of winter.
Our walking trails, while quiet and still, remain open for those looking to take in the snowy scenery or photograph the crisp contrast between art installations and nature in our Open Air Art Museum. Winter is also perfect for a digital detox. With fewer distractions, it’s a time for reflection, reading, and reconnecting with your partner or yourself.
Spring: Rebirth and Blooms
As the snow melts and the birds return, spring ushers in one of the most refreshing seasons at Honey Run. Wildflowers bloom along the trails, the trees begin to bud, and wildlife slowly reemerges. Guests can witness this seasonal rebirth up close while walking the trails, enjoying the scent of fresh blossoms, or spotting migratory birds at our many feeders.
Spring is ideal for those looking to breathe new life into their routine. Whether you’re planning a Mother’s Day getaway, celebrating an anniversary, or just escaping the city, spring at The Inn offers color, calm, and renewed energy. Tarragon’s spring menu reflects the season’s freshness, with bright flavors and locally grown ingredients taking center stage.
Summer: Relaxation in Full Bloom
Long, sunny days and warm evenings make summer one of the most relaxing seasons at Honey Run. Guests enjoy picnics on the lawn, dining on the patio, and late-night stargazing under the wide, clear sky. The gardens are in full bloom, and our woodland trails provide cool shade and the sound of rustling leaves overhead.
Summer is perfect for a romantic getaway, solo retreat, or peaceful escape to explore Amish Country. Guests can visit wineries, tour farmers markets, and return to the Inn to watch fireflies dance as the day ends.
