Built in 1848, by John fowler, THE INN required three years for skilled craftsmen to construct the three story, sixteen room edifice. The Dining Room once housed a general store and Fowlerstown Post Office. In the 1880's a drug store was added to the general store. These have been recreated at Meadowcroft Village near Avella, Pennsylvania.

An open, winding staircase extends from the ground floor to the third floor.
The rooms on the second floor still retain the numbers originally placed on the floors when the Inn Was built. A ladies' parlor on the second floor brings back nostalgic memories of bygone days.
The hand grained inlaid cross paneled doors reflect the religious overtones of the mid-nineteenth century era.

In the early 1850's Mr. Fowler opened the Inn to travelers and drovers, moving their stock across the toll pike. Here at Drovers Inn, they could obtain lodgings and food for themselves, as well as pasture for their livestock.

Fowlerstown, named for Mr. Fowler, was originally comprised of a grist mill, shoe shop, and a buggy and harness shop.
Most of the original furnishings had been removed. However, the Drover's Log and the store records dating back to the 1850's are still a part of the Inn.

The restoration was started in 1965 when the property was purchased by Mary Marko.


Today the Inn is owned by Mark and Karen Cooper.
