At The Inn at Honey Run, we believe that every journey should leave a positive impact on the places we visit. That’s why we’ve made a commitment to sustainable travel, ensuring our practices support the environment while enhancing the guest experience. Nestled within 56 acres of lush woodland and rolling hills in Ohio’s Amish Country, our boutique resort is designed to harmonize with the natural beauty that surrounds it. By embracing eco-friendly initiatives, we invite guests to experience the tranquility of nature while contributing to its preservation.
A Commitment to Sustainability
Sustainability is woven into the fabric of The Inn at Honey Run. From the architecture of our hillside Honeycombs to our on-site honey harvesting, every detail reflects our respect for the environment. Our property was carefully designed to minimize its ecological footprint while offering guests an immersive experience in nature. By incorporating sustainable travel practices into our daily operations, we ensure that future generations can continue to enjoy the beauty of Amish Country.
On-Site Honey Harvesting
One of our most unique sustainability initiatives is our on-site honey harvesting. In 2016, we introduced beekeeping to the property, and it has since become a cornerstone of our eco-friendly efforts. The honey harvested from our hives is used in our dishes at Tarragon, our on-site restaurant, and is available for purchase in our gift shop. This initiative not only supports pollinator health but also allows guests to taste the flavors of Amish Country while contributing to an essential environmental cause.
Our commitment to beekeeping aligns with the principles of sustainable travel by fostering biodiversity and supporting local ecosystems. By staying at The Inn, guests play a role in preserving the delicate balance of nature that makes our property so unique.
Eco-Friendly Practices Across the Property
Beyond honey harvesting, The Inn at Honey Run incorporates a range of eco-friendly practices. Our walking trails and Open Air Art Museum were designed to showcase the natural landscape without disturbing its integrity. Guests can explore the beauty of the property, from snow-dusted trails in winter to vibrant wildflower meadows in spring, knowing that their experience is rooted in sustainability.
Our commitment extends to the amenities we provide, which prioritize eco-consciousness without sacrificing luxury. From energy-efficient lighting to locally sourced ingredients in our restaurant, every element of The Inn reflects a balance between comfort and environmental stewardship.
A Haven for Nature Lovers
For guests seeking a deeper connection with nature, The Inn at Honey Run offers a serene escape. Sustainable travel is about more than just practices; it’s about creating meaningful experiences that respect and celebrate the environment.

The tranquility of our surroundings encourages reflection and renewal, making The Inn an ideal destination for eco-conscious travelers. Each stay is an opportunity to engage with nature in a way that is both restorative and responsible.
