Avon Inn is an historic sanitarium and inn located at Avon, USA, in Livingston County, New York. The main block was built in the 1840s as a residence in the Greek Revival style. The five bay structure features a two story portico supported by massive Ionic columns. In 1882, the building was expanded and remodeled for use as a sanitarium. It was expanded and remodeled in 1912, when it was converted for use as an inn and banquet hall. At this time a notable Colonial Revival style dining room was added.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 16, 1991.[1]
