Tara, A Country Inn

OK, you've read Gone with the Wind so many times that the pages of your book are worn, and you've lost count of the number of times you've seen the movie. Now, through a recent literary tours article and perhaps in person, you have toured the "Dump," Margaret Mitchell's honeymoon home in Atlanta, Georgia.

So, tonight prepare yourself to visit Tara itself!

Grab that dog-eared book and your favorite pillow and head out to Clark, Pennsylvania. Yes, I said Pennsylvania. Not many people will confuse the state with Dixie; however, literary tourists who visit the Tara Country Inn can surely convince themselves that they have been transported to the 1800s.

Surrounded by gracious hospitality and period antiques, artwork, and other collectibles literary tourists can enjoy gourmet meals, overnight accommodations, or simply a guided tour of the ostensible Southern plantation home.

Built in 1854, this beautiful mansion has become the essence of a dream for owners Jim and Donna Winner. For many years the couple had entertained the idea of hosting a world-class country inn based on their favorite literary work--Gone with the Wind. Today they live their dream and share their interest in the novel with guests from across the nation and around the world.

At Tara, guests find it easy to curl up in a chair and immerse themselves in Southern narrative. However, modern luxuries including an outdoor heated pool make the stay even more enjoyable.
