Innkeeper's Story
presenting
Brian & Lynn McCreery
from The Irish Inn
Innkeepers Brian & Lynn McCreery are world travelers who came together in Northern Ireland in 2007. They were married on the levee of the Ohio River in 2008 by 90-year-old WWII veteran Rev. Murrell Hazel, who holds the record for performing the most weddings for guests at The Irish Inn. Having spent decades traveling in pursuit of business and pleasure, the McCreerys are well-acquainted with what makes a stay a joy. Brian loves living in the wilderness of Southern Illinois, near canyons, waterfalls, two great Rivers, the horse trails, and 32 wineries. He is learning all the best places to hike, and at 61 years of age has taken up boulder climbing, kayaking, canoeing, and hiking. Brian created two remarkable stained glass windows for The Irish Inn and is now learning silversmithing. Lynn has ridden every mile of Tunnel Hill State Trail (45 mile bicycle trail) and hiked in all the natural areas, and is active in all the historical, genealogical, and Native American organizations in the area. She enjoys sharing stories of ghosts, pioneers, and Native Americans. The Irish Inn keeps them both busy, but they are determined to visit Antarctica. If you have been there, they will want to hear all about it. Closer to home in the Midwest and MidSouth, they spend two days per month visiting other bed and breakfast inns. In fact taking these mini-holidays on a monthly basis was their New Year's resolution - one they are keeping with relish. You can make the same promise, a resolution you will surely keep! They are members of American Bed & Breakfast Inns (ABBI), Illinois Bed & Breakfast Association (IBBA), Bed & Breakfast Association of Kentucky (BBAK), and the Professional Association of Innkeepers International (PAII).
