History
The Kingsbury's of VT built this estate in the early 1800's when they relocated South. The Greek Revival structure with its surrounding gardens and stables became home of some of the world’s most prolific racing horses. This estate won its true prominence, however, in the days of the Civil War when Union General Tecumseh Sherman chose the Inn as his Union headquarters and thus spared the property from destruction. Only on its third family owner, the property has undergone extensive updates so the charm of this grand estate can meet your event needs.

The Inn is located on Rome Street in downtown Carrollton, Georgia just under an hour from downtown Atlanta. The Inn is situated on 12 beautiful acres of rolling hills and farm ground.
