Every Fall we start seeing leaf color projections on cable travel shows and magazines. The two main areas are New England and the Southern Appalachians. The primary reason for this is the predominance of deciduous hardwood trees like hickory, oak, maple, poplar, dogwood and many other species in our woods and the fact that we have huge areas of national forest land. Several publications have listed Unicoi County as one of the top five leaf looking drives in the United States!! With roadside produce stands full of molasses, honey, mountain apples, pumpkins, and homemade goodies and the weather perfect; plan on making reservations with us in mid-October and you will have one of the best adventures you have ever had.

Jonesborough Flea Market

Each spring, summer and fall Sunday morning, one can stroll through the largest flea market in East Tennessee and have a great time. Wander over 1,000 dealer spaces and search for undiscovered treasures. You’ll find everything from antiques to zucchini. Uncover wonderful one-of-a-kind items to add to your collection, or pick up t-shirts, socks or books. You’ll also find the freshest produce or plants and flowers from local farmers. Take time to hunt through all the vendor booths. An easy 20 minute drive from the hotel. Most dealers are set up and ready to go by 8:00 A.M. Who knows what great things you’ll discover! The hunt is half the fun!

Christmas Tree Farms

East Tennessee and Western North Carolina is known as the capitol of the Frasier Fir Christmas tree farming industry. This tree is sold throughout the United States as the finest holiday tree available because of its color, texture, aroma, and durability! Every year more and more visitors stay with us in late November and early December and make the “cutting of the Christmas tree” an annual tradition for their families.

Mountain Music

Bluegrass, gospel, southern rock, jazz, and all kinds of great music can be heard and enjoyed somewhere near us almost every week of the year! Whether you prefer a small club setting or the back porch of a country home---We are the perfect place to stay while you sample the diversity of mountain music.

Relaxing

Sometimes we get caught up in trying to do too many things in too short of a time and our vacations turn into work! Maybe you need to relax with us a few days and get your feet wet or just sit on a rock while your stress and troubles flow away!
