The Historic Buckley House

The Historic Buckley House – Elegant Riverside Retreat in the Heart of Marietta



Step into timeless charm and modern comfort at the Historic Buckley House, a beautifully preserved 19th-century home nestled in the heart of Marietta, Ohio. Originally built in the late 1800s, this grand Victorian residence has long been a cornerstone of the community—first as a private estate, and later as a beloved fine dining restaurant. Today, it has been thoughtfully reimagined as a distinctive guest retreat, blending historic elegance with modern luxury.



Located just steps from downtown Marietta, the Buckley House offers the perfect setting for weddings, reunions, or relaxing riverfront escapes. Enjoy an easy 7-minute stroll to the People’s Bank Theater, boutique shops, riverfront trails, and the town’s vibrant dining scene—all while returning to the quiet charm of this stately home.



The house features four beautifully appointed bedrooms—three with queen beds, and one with a king—each with its own private en-suite bathroom and walk-in shower. The second floor is fully dedicated to sleeping quarters, offering guests comfort and privacy.



On the main level, you’ll find:



A newly renovated gourmet kitchen with high-end appliances and a dedicated coffee bar.



An elegant dining room featuring seating for eight and hand-carved hardwood furniture, a nod to the home`s rich craftsmanship.



A cozy parlor and spacious living room, perfect for gatherings or quiet reflection.



Outdoors, guests can enjoy the landscaped backyard gardens, complete with brick walkways, a tranquil koi pond, a gazebo, and a large covered deck just off the kitchen—ideal for al fresco dining or morning coffee.



The second-floor balcony offers picturesque views of East Muskingum Park and the Muskingum River, just across the street.



With ample private parking, walkable access to local attractions, and a legacy that captures the spirit of historic Marietta, the Buckley House is more than a place to stay—it’s a place to experience.

L&L Landing Boat Crew

Our group of eight friends set off from New Martinsville, WV aboard a pontoon boat, cruising the Ohio River toward Marietta. We docked at the Marietta Boat Club, and from there, it was just a short walk to The Buckley House—perfectly located in the heart of town.The timing couldn’t have been better. Right across the street, a lively festival was underway, featuring a fantastic selection of Ohio microbreweries. The atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming, adding a fun local flavor to our stay.The Buckley House itself was beautiful—immaculately clean, well maintained, and full of charm. It felt like a true home away from home. In the morning, we strolled over to Busy Bee for a delicious breakfast, then returned to gather our things and continue our river journey.This stop in Marietta was a highlight of our trip. The Buckley House’s location, comfort, and proximity to local attractions made it an ideal choice for our group. Highly recommended for anyone exploring the Ohio River or looking for a memorable stay in Marietta.
