I am a mixed media painter who also also enjoys 'mixing it up' with hospitality, The General Manager, Tom Buck is present to make all guests feel welcome and content during their stay. Tom and I are both from Ormond Beach, Florida. You can see my art and that of my colleagues throughout the hotel and on my website, iamartrachel.com. My mother, Mildred Caperton grew up in Winchester and Cowan. My father, Lawrence Thompson attended Sewanee and graduated in 1935. I still have relatives in the area and now they've adopted Tom too!
