Their place is spacious and the woodwork detail is stunning. The rooms are large with huge windows looking out over the mountains. They have thought of every amenity and when you stay here, you'll want for nothing... except to stay longer.
Here's the Wildflower Room, the room we stayed in while we were there. The king bed was great, so comfy, and the views out the windows are spectacular!
The massive deck is great for just sitting a staring out into the mountains. What a perfect place to sip your morning coffee, listen to the birds and just..... ahhhh, relax!
Jim cooks up a fantastic breakfast every morning, a major feast for any appetite. The food is almost as good as the conversations with your hosts.
We took a half a day and Jim drove us into the National Park, about a 20 minute drive through the forest. Beautiful mountains, rivers and trees, the aromatic scents filled the air and the one thing that stood out when you drive into the park, no toll booth, no fees to get in, just a sign saying welcome... NICE!
We really enjoyed finally meeting Jim and Mary, great hosts with endless amazing stories. They were meant to be Innkeepers, very gracious hosts that love this awesome place in the mountains and the awesome place they built themselves, carving out a beautful home in the forests of the Smoky's, and ready to share it with you!
Be sure to check out their new WowiZowi website coming soon with all the great photography of their beautiful rooms, and book yourself a stay at the Chilhowee Mountain Retreat... it is a treat of a retreat!
