Experience Tennessee's first sunrise-starting a perfect day
Mountain City and Prospect Hill are located in the far NE corner of the state, just south of SW Virginia and just north of Blowing Rock and Boone, NC. The Appalachian Mountains rise to over 5,000 feet in this area. The inn is a 2500 ft.elevation making for good weather and lots of scenery nearby. (Some rooms with a 3-state view.) The scenery is glorious just about every day of the year.

Our wedding garden--for ceremonies and for relaxing
Landscape architect William T. Smith, ASLA (Atlanta) aided in the design of this oasis surrounded by perennials and flowering shrubs. Mountain view back it. We recently added a bubbling fountain and a bronze gazebo. A perfect place to relax or celebrate.

Unique Shingle Style Victorian mansion in the Appalachian Mountains
The house--named Prospect Hill by its first owner--was designed by a Chattanooga architect and built in 1889. It remains significantly unchanged with hand cut wood trim, handmade brick and an unusual metal shingle roof (now permanently finished in patina green--originally barn red and once bright silver!) Located on a knoll on three acres just west of the quaint Mountain City downtown... a place soon to burst with 1950s flavor (the buildings are already there just waiting to bring back The Retro Hometown feeling). 23 walnut trees dot the property. Views of three ridges and states abound.

Romance Room (#1) - Your Own Porch Swing & Views
Large and lovely: snuggle in your king size bed under 11-foot ceilings lighted by rare red glass windows. The whirlpool tub is perfect for two. Gas log stove in bath PLUS gas log fireplace in room, wing chairs, private entrance with porch swing, mountain views, digital TV/premium channels. First floor location (limited handicap access). Wonderful for a romantic say. Perfect for lovers of all ages. Suitable for those who want to avoid the stairs.

Rose Romance Room #2--Three State Views
This unique room is our most popular for honeymoons, anniversaries, elopements and "let's get engaged" weekends. The staircase between the bedroom and bath means it is NOTHING like what you have at home!

In The Flower Garden (#3)
Largest. Least expensive. .... just plain lovely, large room with queen bed, cozy private bath with large modern shower, loveseat, TV. A twin can be added (fee for adults/free for 1 child). Fireplace features unique heart-shaped lights in place of "fire." Great value, space and decorations.

Located on 30 wooded acres adjoining Cherokee National Forest and Iron Mountain Trail. Natural spring on site. Fully equipped and furnished (linens and kitchen gear included). Even a BBQ. Come on vacation! 2 day min. at all times (code).

Breakfast at the inn
We strive for a tasty breakfast which is a tad decadent, always interesting, often sweet and with our own twist. We don't call ourselves gourmet chefs but we are sure you will enjoy the start (fresh fruit) and the finish (good conversation) as well as the variety of egg, pancake, French toast and crepes recipes offered.

Sunrises and Sunsets
We are blessed to be where everyday offers Tennessee's First Sunrise. Some days we also have a wonderful sunset, such as the one pictured. The house, by the way, is a shingle style Victorian home built in 1889 and designed by a Chattanooga,TN architect. Bay window of the living room is shown.

Our mountain meadow--private hiking area
We own an additional 43 acres 8 miles from the inn where you are welcome to take a very private hike through meadows and woods. It also includes the creek where Tom Dooley was arrested...

Fly fishing is fantastic in this area.
If you don't fish, simply enjoy the fresh water and scenery. Nearby is the Virginia Creeper Trail which is great for biking and hiking.
