Thank you, InnKeep. I think I will contact her. There are some other of these cob places and a larger community in OR. I think it would be a huge undertaking for sure. I think at this point, I need to call it quits on the B & B and just go for the lifestyle. If after all is said and done, I can...

Thanks! I checked it out. Very cool. (Some literally) :)

I am very interested in natural building and permaculture. I have been researching building with cob and have found a least one place that uses their cob cottages as lodging. However, no internet research has lead me to understand how to get these created cottages zoned for commercial lodging...

Thanks to everyone. I am regrouping.

Thank you. I will do that now.

Rural and zoned as B & B "supposedly" but never opened as one. Is being used as a home.

I have looked at one property that my DH loves. But overall we are open to anywhere in Marion Cty. I have been uncertain if it is too soon to actually contact them.

Oh thank you Breakfast Diva. I have so many questions but have also done much research. My one big question that I cannot seem to find the right person to ask is: In the county regs a B & B cannot serve food that is grown on site. Is there a way around this? Like if we were to get additional...

Hello, and thank you for taking the time to read this thread. I did a search and have not found the thread that addresses this topic. Having spent the last few days, endlessly reading this forum, I realized a few things. One of them being that I need my money back from the inn workshop folks :)...

I think time is relative if you have the tenacity. I have gone through much in life an have always kept this dream at the forefront. I should have used another term, rather than fundraise. My family will be doing everything it takes to make 2014 a savings year so that 2015 can be the purchase...

Thank you so much for the warm welcome. I have been reading and am enjoying getting to know you all (a little) via the posts.

Our first attempts at fundraising will be to sell off all possessions. We have saved enough where every penny that we make in 2014 will go towards the B & B. The property we want is 600,000 but it is productive property (besides inn has operating orchard) we have the cost of the property but...

Thank you Arkansawyer. Yes to both.

Hello! My name is Rachael and my husband and I are aspiring innkeepers. We have spent several years actively researching and acquiring skills and education to help us solidify our dream and make it reality. We have a clear vision, location (town), prospective property as well as business goals...

Thank you for your reply, Madeleine. I got too excited at finding the site and did not see all of the forum categories and just jumped right in. I will find my way to make a proper introduction. Fundraising seems to be the only avenue for us right now. We both have good credit and live simply...

Not really. I needed to ensure that I was not jumping into a dream. I worked as an innkeeper assistant part time for 7 years. During this time, my husband went to culinary school. I have gotten certified in event management as well. I also wanted to learn about livestock and homesteading and...

Arkansawyer that's my job now (fundraiser) and now I am turning my attention to myself.

The only thing stopping me is money. I have been doing research for about 10 years. I have just joined this forum because I plan to do intense fundraising and capital building in 2014 and I look forward to any insights that I may be able to glean from you.
