The two hotel wings blend seamlessly with the historic main house, offering classic charm and comfort. Rooms for rent are located in the hotel wings.

It is open for brunch and dinner on weekends, and lunch and dinner on most week nights. Our executive chef is on the board of a local culinary school, and has prepared signature Southern dishes with a contemporary twist. The Old 18th (named after the 18th amendment that ushered in the prohibition era) Speakeasy is the hidden gem that will complete your experience.

I honestly cannot think of a smoother, more relaxful trip than this one. Ron was an excellent host and the check in/out process was quick and easy. I highly recommend getting dinner at Circa 1918. The strip was perfect! Overall atmosphere was peaceful. Im grateful for the stay!

What a darling Inn!! We had a spacious room with everything we needed. We were impressed with the little extra touches like…juice, milk, snacks, etc in the room. Also, the owner was extremely nice. You won’t be disappointed if you’re in the area. PS. Make sure you eat at the restaurant on site. Sweet little speakeasy and great food.

The owner recently opened the rooms after a renovation. The rooms are great, very clean and cozy. The restaurant is directly next door and the food was wonderful. We stayed for a few nights and had no issues or complaints. The owner and his wife are very friendly and very receptive to suggestions, recommendations, etc. Thanks Ron for a cozy experience!

The Inn is very cute and you can tell the owner has put some time and money into the place. Our room was refreshed with some modern updates and it was lovely. Upon our arrival we met the owner at the restaurant on the premises and he walked us to our room. The room was very spacious and clean! My husband and I stayed two nights and they were quiet and restful. If I have any reason to visit the area again I would definitely book another stay here.
