The Irish Inn

We love March, because the whole world turns a little Irish on St. Patrick's Day. One day a month is not enough for The Irish Inn, so we celebrate every single day! Irish music, storytelling around warm fires, special catered dinner feasts of Irish stew, corned beef and cabbage, or three other dinners, our full Irish breakfasts, and the blarney of your Irish Innkeeper will make your March visit here unforgettable. We offer this special package for $199/night plus tax and gratuity for double occupancy. Make your reservations early, and may you be in heaven five minutes before the devil knows you're dead! Some guests just can't get here in March. If you want to enjoy a St. Patrick's holiday here at any other time of year, just ask, even if your name is not Timothy, Patrick, or Michael. If you're Irish, come into our parlor, and there's always a welcome mat for you at The Irish Inn!
