Whitestone Country Inn Getaway

Three years ago, our children gave Becky and me a two night getaway gift for our 40th wedding anniversary and earlier this week we finally used it.  The Whitestone Country Inn is located near Kingston, TN and is a beautiful Christian retreat center overlooking Watts-Bar Lake and the Tennessee River.  The pictures don't do it justice since it was pretty hazy the day the pictures were taken but, hopefully, it will give you an idea of how beautiful it is.  We walked, played croquet, used a paddle boat, read and basically relaxed.  Becky did not mention P.E.O. once while we were on the property.  I was so proud of her.

 The School House where we checked in
 Becky in front of the Entrance Barn where our room, The Robins Nest Room, was located
 The Lion and Lamb Conference Center and the Good Shepherd Chapel
 Overlooking Watts Bar Lake


 The Farm House where the meals were served
 The Good Shepard Chapel.  They have a full time wedding coordinator on site.
 Beautiful sanctuary!  The chapel was built as an expanded replica of a small Anglican church that was built in the late 1800's in Rugby, TN near Big South Fork Recreation Area.
 Do you see the three crosses?
