  • Introduction

    The Flat Iron Inn is private inn that is located within a couple of miles of the innkeepers.  It is situated next to a huge brick flat iron shaped planter that has become the center of historical Plain City. On Summer evenings, a Farmer’s Market is held there, and in the Winter, it’s where the huge tree planted inside the flatiron planter is decorated. “Christmas Under The Clock” which includes ice carvings, is also held by the flat iron planter.

    The Flat Iron Inn is also just a short distance from attractions like Der Dutchman Restaurant, Yutzy’s Farm Market, and MCC’s glamorous, all volunteer, Thrift Store.

    You will be within walking distance of the shops on main street and also a laundromat.

    At the Flat Iron Inn, you will find a small suite including Bedroom, Bath, Full Kitchen, and sitting area. The kitchenette is stocked with snacks and breakfast items such as homemade granola, bread and yogurt.
