A Message From the Innkeeper

 
“Wood Thrush Ridge is a soulful piece of the planet that I am so privileged to call my home. I want to share this land with other nature lovers; the great-horned owls wake me on winter mornings…the yellow trillium blanket a springtime ravine…the wood thrush songs are so thick in the summertime dusk that I can’t sort them all out…I smile at the sound of fall’s first white-throated sparrow…the winter wren darts past me on my winter walk…every day holds nature’s wonders. Come and stay at Wood Thrush Ridge…I’ll make a bonfire in the orchard and tell you where all the birds of Tennessee can be found."
Janet Lee ~ Innkeeper
