About the Innkeepers

Judy and Robert Hotchkiss have been renovators since one day in 1972 when they repainted door trim in an old house they rented in the Seattle area. Since then they have revived a series of turn-of-the-century homes in the Atlanta area, but nothing as daunting as a 6,000 square-foot shingle style Victorian located in a small town in rural Northeast Tennessee.

Robert holds a physics degree from Georgia Tech and a law degree from Emory University. He also trained in nuclear submarines. Judy Wright Hotchkiss holds a journalism degree from Seattle University and is an avid student of renovation and gardening.

Pets at the inn: The innkeepers have always been "dog people" but right now the queen of the attic (where the innkeepers live) is Tiger Lily, a domestic cat which crossed the highway and chose the inn as her home while a small kitten. She was found on Flag Day but was NOT named Betsy Ross. Because she needs medication she spends her time in the kitchen window or the innkeepers' private space in the attic. She dislikes the guest rooms which are also kept closed at all times.

Outdoors--and in the party room--you will find Big Head the brown tabby. He will greet you, rub your ankles and follow you around. He's a "grand ring bearer" at elopement weddings. You might also find him on the front porch swing!
