Hale Springs Inn

A place can mean a lot to a town. The Hale Springs Inn is such a place to the people of Rogersville in east Tennessee. the inn has been at the heart of the town since the early 1800's, and when it fell on hard times, the people of Rogersville got together to save it. Rob Wilds recently visited the restored and refurbished Hale Springs Inn.
