Travelled with family
24 Jun 2025
Honesdale, Pennsylvania was hosting their Roots & Rhythm Music & Arts Festival, so we decided to attend. We packed up my wife’s wheelchair, walker, pills, and a few necessities, and hit the road.
If you’re not from a small town, you may fail to see the simple elegance of this gem of a town and the sincere kindness of its residents.
We spent two nights at the Wayne Inn.
The Inn, from a distance, looks like a postcard. A welcoming abode, neatly nestled into the hillside. The closer you get, the more obvious it becomes, time has been less than kind to this iconic place. She is weathered, and wrinkled, conservative with her makeup, but appropriately attired to do the work of keeping you fed, warm, and safe.
The Wayne Inn does not have an elevator. If you have mobility issues you should ask for a room on the first floor when making your reservation. I am certain that the stewards of the Inn will do what they can to accommodate you.
We found our room to be comfortable and clean. Not perfect, but acceptable in almost every way.
The only thing that made us sad was the price we were charged for our stay. At $169.50 per night, $369.52 for a two night stay, it is not very likely that we will stay here again.
There is no doubt in my mind that we will return to Honesdale one day. There is too much love in and around this gem of a town, and too much to see before our eyes grow dim. We don’t know where we’ll stay, but it won’t be at the Wayne Inn, unless we strike it rich at Bingo.
