Special at Serenbe

Serenbe is offering room rates for $149 and including dinner at The Hil. Here's the skinny. On Sunday and Thursday nights they offer this special deal. You can book any room at The Inn. I recommend one of the cottages, the Dogwood or Magnolia. The Dogwood Cottage has a fireplace and a large screened in porch that overlooks the lake. The Magnolia boasts a whirlpool tub for two, but that ain't so. Unless you wanna get really close or you are both under 5 feet tall. However, it has a great little kitchen and they leave cookies for a snack. The Main House has seven rooms all equipped with TVs and Internet, of course. The $60 restaurant voucher is for The Farmhouse on Thursday nights and for The Hil on Sunday. The Farmhouse has a prie fix menu that is $36.00 on Thursdsay. It is typically a four course meal of very fresh vegetables, chicken or fish and dessert prepared in unique succulent ways. You will have to work some magic, spending your $60 dollars at The Hil. Remember the voucher is for food only and excludes alcohol. $30 each will get you both an entree and either an appetizer or dessert. I recommend you spend the extra cash and go for both. And everyone has to get something different so you can share. So as long as you spend $60, you will get that amount off your room. This leaves you with about a $90 room rate, but we do have hotel motel tax that adds up, so beware of that. Also, the room rate includes breakfast! The breakfast is really good. It will most likely be eggs, cooked to order, sausage or bacon, grits with cheese and/or butter, a side of fruit, and a really good biscuit. They have a little bar in front with yogurt, fruit, jams and honey. The honey is locally made and the eggs are more fresh than you probably want to imagine. You can easily spend the day hiking, shopping the shops at Serenbe, playing croquet on the lawn, jumping on the trampoline built into the ground, petting the array of farm animals, lounging in or around the pool or reading a book in the big comfy cushion lined swing. Call 770.463.2610 for info and reservations. You will have to ask for the special, they will not automatically give it to you if you book a Sunday or Thursday night.
