The best part of being innkeepers? Spending time with amazing people from all over the world. The Queen of Color herself, Annie Sloan came to stay with us this past week along with her partners-in-chalk-paint Tristian (Tristan Merriam), Molly (Molly Kiger), and Natalie (Natalie Evans). All were in town for workshops at Vintage Now Modern. Lovely, creative, business-savvy folks committed to delivering creative inspiration and tools. Now, where are my brushes and paints? So much furniture to up cycle!

Happy Sunday y'all! We are in search of someone to help us clean at Rocky Retreat. This includes cleaning guest bedrooms and bathrooms, remaking beds, and vacuuming and dusting the main parts of the house. Cleaning schedule depends on when we have guests and is especially busy during the fall football season. If you know someone with cleaning experience who flexibility to work when needed, please send them our way!

So much joy at Rocky Retreat this weekend! Strangers became friends, puzzles were put together, and lots of memories were made at the stadium and on the porch. When can we host you and your family?

Fall is off to a colorful start at Rocky Retreat, thanks to the hard work of our favorite floral designer (our mum, Martha Ligon) and glorious fresh flowers and mums from our cousins at Denver Downs Farm. These Belgian mums bloom in purple and orange — perfect for Clemson fans!
