Osceola Lake Inn
osceola-lake-inn.com

Built in 1909 as the Lake View Hotel, the Victorian-era resort opened with wraparound porches, panoramic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains, and every modern convenience of its day.

The lake, named for Seminole chief Osceola and formed just months before the hotel opened, drew over a thousand visitors on opening weekend, arriving by foot, carriage, and automobile.

By 1915, a Southern Railway guidebook was already praising its boating and fishing.

In 1940, the Rubin family of Florida purchased the property and spent more than six decades transforming it into a beloved full-service resort (think Catskills-style hospitality tucked into the Blue Ridge) with three daily meals, nightly entertainment, tennis courts, a pool, and a loyal following of guests who returned summer after summer.

After changing hands and names in the years that followed, the property is now being revitalized as Osceola Lake Inn, reclaiming its original name and 115-year heritage while weaving Victorian elegance together with contemporary hospitality.

Marked Tree Vineyard
623 Deep Gap Road, Flat Rock

The Spirit of Marked Tree is about finding your path.

Early in American history settlers noticed oddly shaped, bent trees in the landscape. These odd shaped trees were formed and created by Native Americans to be guideposts through the wilderness, a guide to water, a guide to food, a guide to hunting - a navigation system.

In 2015 we were in search of our own path, a Marked Tree. We wanted a place where all our family’s different paths could cross and converge. Our passion for farming , meeting new people, creating new experiences and of course WINE led us here.

We hope you enjoy time at Marked Tree Vineyard. Whether you are choosing a new path, enjoying your current path or looking for a new exciting one- enjoy the next marker of your life with a great bottle of Marked Tree wine. Cheers!
