History

Established in 1986.

This business was a dream of my Mother’s, who very sadly past away in the summer of 2004. She had enjoyed a very long and successful career in the high-​end hotel industry. She began with and when the Omni International Hotel in downtown Norfolk, Va. opened. She succeeded to the National Sales Manager for that location and 2 others. From there she moved to Ft. Lauderdale, Fl. where see was the General Manager of 5 hotels in the area. Next, she accepted a great position in Washington DC. Her job was overseeing operations for a large company that owned several hotels up and down the east coast. She enjoyed her job and the people she worked with. As we all know, big businesses are bought and sold all the time. This was the case with the business my mother was working. It turned out to be a very bad deal, as she lost all respect for the new owners. It had turned into a job she hated. She wanted to escape DC to the country and open her own lodging business… again success, and here we are.

Business Owner

As we found out that my mother was going to lose her fight with illness; my husband and I were very luck to come here and spend time with her the last month of her life. She had more than accepted her fate and was surrounded by family, friends from far and wide, and people she had worked with from the beginning. She was very concerned about her husband, my stepfather. He was legally blind and would not be able to run the business. Again, my husband and I were in the position to move here permanently and with my mother and her husband and my sister’s help, they taught me the basics of the hospitality business and running her business. It was the hardest circumstance I had ever faced. Knowing I was here because she wasn’t any longer. She told me she had all the faith in the world in me. Myself, I was terrified. She had built her successful business in the mountains and more than anything I wanted to continue her legacy. Failure wasn’t an option, as I felt if I failed, I would fail her.
