I just returned from an industry conference in Anaheim, California. Fortunately, I have a favorite cousin who lives in LA and was able to visit her for a couple of days prior to the conference. She treated me to a spa day at the Fours Season Resort, a five star spa. We were pampered and it set the tone for me to hit the ground running for the next five days.

Recently, I was elected back on the Select Registry (selectregistry.com) board for our region. A board meeting was held prior to the conference. I felt right at home after about 8 years. Select Registry, Distinguished Inns of North America, produces the book we give to each of you as a gift at check out. Don’t forget they have a Loyalty Travel Program. Whether you come here 4 times or visit other Inns, you will receive $25 off on your fourth visit.

The PAII (Professional Association of International Innkeepers) is the ultimate for our industry with workshops and vendors galore. I come home with lots of information, new ideas for marketing and great suggestions to enhance your visit even more. The staff laughs when I return as their work load gets even heavier. But, that’s what it’s all about, taking care of you…our guest.

Welcome All!

Welcome to our first blog. Spring is just around the corner and we’ve done lots of housekeeping chores this winter. Some of you may remember way back when our offices were located above the tavern. We’ve decided to make that space usable again for some of our staff. Terry is putting on the finishing touches and staff will be moving in shortly. Debra, our longtime Bookkeeper will move there, as well as Stephanie, our Dining Room Manager. Finally, Terry will have an office too. New furniture has been ordered for the Dogwood and TreeHouse cabins. It will be arriving next week. RedBud is receiving a fresh coat of paint. We are adding more storage for housekeeping by closing in under the stairs at the Inn building. We are grateful to have hired Randy Nelson as our first fulltime Maintenance person. He has been a tremendous help in getting these projects finished.

Keep yourselves posted to our blog as we will continue with updates as to the “going-ons” around here. Thank you for taking the time to visit us.

Welcome to the Inn and Spa

The Inn At Cedar Falls began as a vision of Anne Castle, a well respected businesswoman who gave up her corporate life to establish a place where the ever-growing number of urban dwellers could retreat to a natural setting.
