When is a Bed & Breakfast Inn a Resort?
Our dictionary defines a resort as a place that provides recreation and entertainment to vacationers. To some, that means dance lessons and floor shows. To others it means trout fishing, bird watching or a relaxing massage.
At the Stonebow Inn, a
western Maryland Bed and Breakfast for sale, guests find Nature in abundance. The Inn sits on the banks of a famous trout stream, in the midst of the Allegheny Mountains. The creature comforts here have been well thought out and include a range of accommodations from renovated historic bedrooms to private cottages. There’s as much “Nurture” as “Nature.”
In the last two decades, learning vacations have grown in popularity. To update the concept of “Resort” think of learning as entertainment and doing as recreation. Across the street from the Stonebow Inn is the
Spruce Forest Artisan Village which offers workshops in arts and crafts as well as a summer music series. Nearby, guests can take a kayak tour, play golf or ski. On the Inn premises, guests can fly fish (guides are available,) bird watch, take a sauna or get a massage.
By making use of the fully restored post and beam barn and the carpeted recreation room learning-and-doing programs can expand at the Stonebow Inn. “Audubon” … “Arts and Crafts” … “Yoga” … “Watercolor” … “Fly Tying” … “Nature Writing” … These are ideas that immediately come to mind. Guests at the Stonebow Inn love the natural setting – New owners will be inspired to offer them more ways to appreciate it!
