Built in 1823, the Inn was the former homestead of John D. Thompson, Esquire, a prominent statesman and area businessman. Thompson held the position of Postmaster and also served as Sheriff of Burlington County. In 1828, Thompson purchased the Tuckerton Stage Line which delivered mail from Tuckerton to Philadelphia. It is believed he operated the stage line and a tavern from the building at the same time. The historic structure located on the west side of the Inn served as the village post office.

In 1899, the property was conveyed to George and Helen Mott and remained in the Mott family for 97 years until it was converted to a bed and breakfast in 1996. It is currently owned by Lorenzo and Catherine Lauro who purchased the Inn in 2004. The Inn has been renovated to include all modern amenities while maintaining the integrity of the beautiful original architectural features such as a mahogany three-story staircase, ten foot ceilings, and ornate plaster moldings.
