Hopewell Chapel

An intimate setting, perfect in every detail.

Capacity: 90 guests

Walk down the aisle in this historic church while the two 1854 brass bells in the chapel’s tower ring out your entrance.  Family and friends will watch from pews wrought from antique heart of pine wood.  Light streams in through the arched side windows, while the round window over the altar sets off the bridal couple.

Merchants Hope Church, located in Prince George County, Virginia, is the model for this chapel.  Among the oldest Protestant churches in America, it was built in 1744. The first owner of the INOLA property had this sparkling gem built this near copy replica taking care to have all the details built in a manner consistent with Colonial architecture.  Even the windowpanes are hand blown glass.  The chapel has Flemish brick-bond brickwork, medallion cornices, and a graceful gable roof. The bell tower contains two antique bells weighing 225 and 125 pounds. Colonial architecture is rare in Georgia and unknown in the mountains. 

Your reception will be held in the quaint Wetherburn’s Tavern. Both the chapel and reception area are surrounded by a dense forest creating a beautiful setting.

Colonial Refinement with an Updated Interior

Built in the 1750s the original Wythe House is in today’s Colonial Williamsburg in Virginia. It was the home of George Wythe, signer of the

Declaration of Independence. Our Blue Ridge Wythe House is an exact replica.  Design and construction of this stately home was supervised by an architect from Williamsburg. 

While the façade is Colonial, the interior is currently being modernized in keeping with the Inola experience.  Remodeling will result in elegant and upscale rooms and appointments. The house can sleep 24 guests. The closest people in your life, all together under one roof, yet allowing for separate time with the gals and guys. Such an amazing approach to the total experience.
