The INN at Mountain View
Bed and Breakfast

The INN at Mountain View, an AAA-approved Bed and Breakfast, is housed in a beautifully restored, distinctive, rustic Victorian home that lies nestled in a quiet residential neighborhood just yards from the music-filled courthouse square.

It's waiting to greet you with the same friendly hospitality that guests have been experiencing there for over a century. Since 1886, when John Webb, a Civil War veteran, successful merchant, and Mountain View's first postmaster, opened his home (then known as The Dew Drop Inn) to traveling salesmen, circuit riders, preachers and other weary travellers. Even through several transitions from inn to boarding house back to inn, the house has maintained a reputation for hospitality. Now known as The INN at Mountain View, the B&B offers its own unique blend of warmth and comfort. It all starts with visitors being welcomed by the large front porch with its alluring rocker that invites you to sit a spell and listen to the breeze in the Maple trees, renew old acquaintances, and build new friendships.

Painstaking measures were taken to restore this attractive home without affecting the original structure's graceful lines. A favored turn-of-the-century guest could still identify the big front porch, high ceilings, carved woodwork and rich, dark wainscoting. But mostly, he or she would recognize The Inn's unique blend of classic Victorian elegance, southern hospitality and down-home comfort which has been a trademark since the 1890's. That guest would feel right at home in the midst of the Inn's period antiques, hand-made quilts, and embroidered linens. However, nothing has been spared in the way of modern day amenities to assure your comfort. Each of the Inn's 11 guest suites is steeped with such comforts as a private bath, air conditioning, ceiling fans, and carpeting.

Part of your stay at The Inn at Mountain View includes waking up to the savory smells of a satisfying seven-entree breakfast. The warm and friendly ambiance is part of breakfast as well, as guests gather family-style around lovely oversized oak tables. Taste-tempting dishes may include fluffy home made biscuits with sausage gravy, Belgian waffles topped with fruit compote, scrambled eggs, fresh fruits, lots of juice and bottomless cups of coffee.

The Inn at Mountain View blends the best of the past and the present for a lodging experience you'll never forget. So come on in! Experience good old down-home hospitality that has been a tradition for over a century.
