A Creekside Garden Inn (formerly the Marquee House) provides spacious rooms in a Mt. Vernon Colonial overlooking historic Mill Creek, and only six blocks from the capitol. The guest accommodations include five antique-filled rooms, each individually decorated in a garden theme. The new name and décor are in Celebration of the inn's 10th Anniversary, 1993-2003.
As the owner and innkeeper, Rickie's favorite saying is "Count your years not by numbers, but by the friends that life has brought your way." Many wonderful guests return to the inn and enjoy the same great food, great service, and great atmosphere; and by being so supportive, these same guests allow "hospitality with a hart" to continue to grow. The large living room and outdoor veranda provide perfect gathering places overlooking our beautiful creekside setting. Out-door rooms revolve around Mill Creek, with fresh air, a great view, and a lovely little spot to enjoy them; the Purple Room, the Deutzia "Secret Garden," and the Rhubarb patch. Don't be surprised to run across a Scarecrow advertising "Will work for Raspberries," or a flotilla of ducks on the creek. You may read and relax in front of the inviting fireplace, bird watch from the quiet veranda, or walk downtown and explore. Our extensive movie collection is available for nighttime social hours with "Bottomless Popcorn Bowls." Many wonderful wineries are also just minutes away. In an effort to accommodate our business travelers, three of the guest rooms offer Communication Data Ports, as well as desks. Hearty and "sumptuous" breakfasts are served in the sunny dining room, or on the veranda, between 8:00 and 9:00 AM unless otherwise agreed upon.
