The Lodge at Flatrock Mill opens in Maysville
JAN JONES, innkeeper of
The Lodge at Flatrock Mill,
announced that the 780 sq. foot
B & B Guest House is open. The
Lodge is located in the Flatrock
Mill Wildlife Sanctuary on
Deadwyler Road in Maysville.
“The second floor guest
house is reminiscent of a tree
house,” says Jones. “Styled after
old fish camps, pine-paneling,
one inch thick pine flooring, and
a corrugated tin ceiling create
a cabin atmosphere that wraps
you in warmth. Large windows
provide beautiful views of the
creek on one end of The Lodge,
and the woods on the other. The
romantic getaway is filled with
treasures from the past and all
the comforts of today. The open
floor plan has sitting and dining
areas, a full kitchen, king size
bed and two twin beds, and a
shower for two. A private deck
is perfect for sipping morning
coffee or a glass of wine at
sunset serenaded by a chorus of
tree frogs.”
Guests of The Lodge are free
to roam the 33-acre wildlife
sanctuary where wildlife and
nature are protected and hunted
is not allowed. Most of the
sanctuary is natural woodlands,
with wetlands in the back just
teeming with nature. Candler
Creek borders the property on
the south.
“The creek is like a miniature
Hurricane Shoals with an
expanse of flat rock,” says
Jones. “Guests can idle away
hours in one of the swings
or the hammock, or picnic in
the arbor. The serenity here is
captivating. Just watching the
critters or listening to the birds is
so relaxing you just don’t want
to leave.”
Guests arrive to continental
breakfast foods and beverages in
The Lodge along with a dessert.
“All is not rustic, however,”
adds Jones. “Luxury linens are
among the amenities, as well
as books and games for guests’
pleasure. Flatrock Mill is a
wonderful place for a vacation
away from or close to home.
It’s also a beautiful location for
private events such as family
gatherings, picnics or weddings.
A wedding on the flat rock in
the creek could make for a ‘rock
solid marriage.”
In addition to The Lodge,
the Grand Room in the main
house can accommodate parties
up to 100 people and is ready
to schedule fall and holiday
events.
“We also want to have a focus
in the art world,” said Jones.
“The property is perfect for
art and craft shows or art and
spiritual retreats.”
Rates at The Lodge are $175
per night plus tax single or
double occupancy.
“Select dates are going
fast,” Jones stated,” “so we are
encouraging everyone to call for
reservations.”
