It's Spring fever. that is what the
name of

you don't quite know what it is you do want,
but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you
want it so! - Mark Twain
Do you have Spring fever? We do! As we
write this, the beautiful weather has invited
our guests to relax on our new deck
overlooking the peaceful meadow, sip a
glass of wine and drink in the warm
sun...now that's what we call a great cure
for Spring fever!
In this issue, you will read about some of the
fun and festive events and packages
happening this spring not only at the inn but
in beautiful northeast Georgia. With all of
the negative and discouraging news you
