Ralph and Maryanna Koehring have spent decades overseas; Ralph working with the US Government, and Maryanna teaching English as a second language. They have recently moved back to the US with their three "nearly grown" children and have settled here in Waynesville. They are looking forward to this endeavor of reopening Prospect Hill as a historic inn, welcoming the sojourner to Waynesville and directing them to all the local businesses, especially those on Main Street just steps from the inn.

As longtime travelers themselves, Ralph and Maryanna bring a deep appreciation for hospitality and comfort. Their vision for Prospect Hill is to create a place where guests can relax, unwind, and also get out to enjoy all that the area has to offer. Listed on the National Historic Registry, Prospect Hill blends historic character with stories gathered from a life of international travel, offering a stay that is both welcoming and full of character.

About the inn: Prospect Hill on Main, listed on the National Historic Registry, is opening again as an inn! It is a boutique-type inn for guests to enjoy a minimum of a two-night stay. Guests can enjoy the unique bedrooms and also the many charming common areas including a large "parlor" (living room), an amazing library with a fireplace, the dining room (which offers hot tea at any time), the tv room, the large front porch with rocking chairs, and the patio with a firepit. The inn offers several rooms and suite-style accommodations, ranging from rooms with queen beds and a bathroom to rooms with king beds and sitting rooms or spa-like bathroom. Guests can enjoy a continental breakfast before heading out to the shops and restaurants just steps from the inn.
