6 Rooms  Non-Smoking No Pets

The Rose Hill Inn is an elegant 1860 Italianate mansion, set high on a hill overlooking picturesque Marshall, Michigan. Twelve-foot ceilings, tall windows with lovely views, fireplaces, and fine antique furnishings combine to create a mood of tranquility and escape from the modern world. Once the home of William Boyce, founder of the Boy Scouts of America, this spacious villa is the perfect place to celebrate an anniversary or birthday, host an elegant wedding, hold a business meeting, or simply escape for a getaway weekend.
Six guest rooms are decorated in Victorian style with vintage prints, lace curtains, and antique lighting, but with modern luxuries: private baths, central air, and in-room cable TV and phones. Ample choices for inside relaxation include two formal parlors and a cozy upstairs den. A small antique shop may lure you to the basement, where you will also find a card room and a billiard room. Breakfast is served fireside in the dining room under a crystal chandelier on Haviland china. The menu includes seasonal fruit, juices, cereal, yogurt, home-baked goods, and a specialty d'jour, perhaps a crab quiche or Cheddar casserole.
Situated on over three acres of landscaped grounds once owned by author James Fenimore Cooper, Rose Hill offers guests the opportunity to enjoy the private tennis court or swimming pool, stroll in the gardens, or find their own place to relax, whether poolside, on a shaded patio at an umbrella table, on the open porch bordered with roses, or on the screened porch with a wicker swing (where the resident cat can usually be found napping). The town of Marshall boasts over 850 historic buildings. This community of 19th century buildings is the largest National Historic Landmark District of its category in the nation. Fine restaurants, antique and gift shops, museums and recreation areas are all conveniently in town, while golf courses, an amusement park, and a zoo are minutes away.

Other Amenities ...
All of the rooms in Rose Hill feature private baths, central air conditioning, cable television, phones, and down comforters. All rooms are large and feature very tall windows; even the second floor ceilings are 11 feet tall. Five of the six rooms are on corners, so there is always good light. Rooms are separated by baths or stairways, and the exterior walls are 14 inches thick, so each room is very quiet. All rooms have one bed, at least double in size. Rollaway beds are not available.
