The Inn is very excited to be welcoming back renowned Professional Photographer and great friend of the Inn, Jim Crotty!

Mr. Crotty has agreed to lead another of his very popular photography workshops, this one titled ‘Return to the Hills’.

February Inn News

February 4th, 2011 by Innkeeper, Inn & Spa At Cedar Falls

Dear Friends,

Winter Wonderland abounds in the Hocking Hills.  This winter has been one of the best of hiking.  The ice formations are spectacular especially when the sun is breaking through the trees making the ice glisten.  Recently, Innkeeper Ellen hiked Old Man’s Cave, Cedar Falls, Ash Cave and Rose Lake.  She says” Each one is breath taking in its own way.  Winter is still my favorite season in the Hocking Hills.  I love the quiet and crispness of walking in the woods this time of year.  The ice formations are mesmerizing and the silence permits time for pondering and reflection.”

Join us for some fun with our array of winter events.  Our first “FRIDAY NIGHT at the MOVIES” was fun. Terry’s warm chocolate drinks and chocolate chip s’mores were to “die for”.   Grease is playing on Feb 4 and on March 4 it’s Dirty Dancing! Come join the fun, dance and sing along!  Want to win some brownie points with your loved one?  Join us for Valentine’s Day.  There are a few openings left for our overnight special and dinner.  The winter Wine TasteInn on Feb 25 is almost sold out, call today.  Ready to re-energize?  Join our spa therapists for the Mind, Body Spirit Renewal workshop on Feb 27-28. You won’t want to miss Patty Geiger’s workshop “Woodland Awakening” April 28-May 1.

The AAA Travel Show was a huge success.  It gave us the opportunity to introduce ourselves to new guests and make new friends.  But, best of all was the large number of people who stopped by our booth and have stayed with us.  They were able to tell all the other people first-hand about how wonderful they think we are!

Ellen shopped her heart away at the Atlanta Gift Mart!  New Gift Shop items are already arriving.  Innkeeper Ellen says, “I purchased from about 30 new vendors.  Some of the new items include green garden pots, functional bird houses, children’s toys and a new line of hand soap and body lotion.”   Make sure you stop by on your next trip to the Hocking Hills.

It always warms our hearts to see our repeat guests.  We look forward to your return.

Ellen and Terry
