  • Introduction

    Welcome to the Market Street Inn!

     

    The Market Street Inn, a stately Second Empire 1881 mansion in downtown Jeffersonville, Indiana, fully restored with every modern amenity in 2005. Just two blocks from restaurants and shopping and one block from the Ohio River! Market Street Inn has seven beautiful guest rooms, including three large suites!

    Two dining rooms can accommodate up to 32 people, food prepared by professional chef! Large third floor deck with fountain and outside fireplace! Off-street parking for 20 cars.
     


    The owners of the Market Street Inn are Steve and Carol Stenbro.

    Steve and Carol have been in the innkeeping business since 1995. Their most notable guest was President George W. Bush on October 28, 2006!

    Steve is a retired toolmaker of Ford Motor Company. His interests include bicycling, traveling, genealogy and restoring old houses. Steve is also a member of the Falls of Ohio Archaeological Society and Historic Preservation Board.

    Carol has worked in collections and served numerous years as a volunteer with Girl Scouts, church groups, the Red Hat Society, and is a past President of the Indiana Bed & Breakfast Association.

    Carol's interest in cooking and decorating, and their interest in staying in historic Bed & Breakfasts when they travel, is what led them to the innkeeping business!
