That is very important to us when we are traveling. Your Inn was truly immaculate and the food was the best. We will return. Thanks for your hospitality."

| "My husband and I were thrilled to find such a beautiful Inn at Bee Rock, where he had proposed 34 years before. We have stayed at several bed and breakfasts in the Southern region, and were very impressed with the welcoming staff, wonderful breakfast and the majestic setting of the Inn itself. There was a restful ambience upon entering and comforting pleasantries during our entire stay, including the cleanest facilities we've ever encountered. Truly a relaxing, wonderful stay and a place that we will recommend to all. Thanks to Mike and staff for a truly enjoyable anniversary."

We are extremely proud of our Tennessee Health Department scores and post them here for all to see.
The Inn is randomly inspected twice a year for both a "Bed and Breakfast Inspection" and a
"Food Service Establishment Inspection." Below is a sampling of our scores that prove
when we say "immaculate" we truly mean immaculate.
