The Inn is a popular place for small meetings, say of 20 to 100 people, which is how we got to Athens, Texas the first time. Sort of a motel lay-out with a pool sheltered between two wings of the Inn, everything is handy. There are a few suites which are really more like small apartments. These are great for long weekends. Basically you are buying the location. That is the town of Athens which is very enjoyable.
However, the insiders'' secret and the reason people book far in advance for holidays to stay at this Inn, is the restaurant. It''s really good and is a nice place to get away from home when you don''t want to cook and/or spend holidays with relatives. We all laugh about that! Gee--I wonder who will read this?
So for a couple hundred bucks, you can get away from home, drive through beautiful East Texas, stay at this Inn, have some nice meals and some fun in and around town. What a deal!
