In addition to separate showers, all of our suites include Japanese style soaker tubs. In keeping with its nautical theme, the North Star’s tub will feature a large stone surround with a giant bas-relief octopus. It should be quite spectacular!

With the design of the Under Hill’s fireplace well in hand we have begun to think about the North Star suite. We think it's fireplace should complement the eclectic nature of the rest of the building.

As we continue to think about the Under Hill’s interior, we have decided on a grand “walk-in” fireplace built with massive stones and (as a nice comedic counterpoint) a tiny pot bellied stove.

While the layout of the suites has been (literally) set in stone for quite some time and the overall feel of each suite is clear in our minds we have deliberately held off delving into the interior details. However, as the exterior of the inn is rapidly taking shape it is time to start nailing the interior design down in preparation for moving inside! With that in mind here is our first go at the interior of the Under Hill.

This week Becké and Hailey Headed down to South Carolina for a hotel convention. It was a long journey but - since we are all rather new to the hotel business - it was a great research trip. They are on their way home now with their suitcases stuffed full of brochures!
