WOOD WORKING SCHOOLS

     Something new has been added for guests at the Inn:  woodworking classes for beginners.  As a master craftsman, Bill Williams has been creating and building custom furniture for people from all over the country.  Specializing in mission, arts and crafts and shaker style furniture, Bill has developed a love for hand tools and old fashioned craftsmanship as well as an appreciation for modern tools when appropriate.  His love of woodworking and enjoyment in sharing his knowledge and skills led him to creating the Cherokee Woodworking Schools here at the Inn.  These schools are designed for those interested in learning  basic woodworking  skills.
