Built in 1888, it was originally the home of Reverend John A. Deal, a missionary who established all of the Episcopal Churches in western North Carolina. He also established the first lending library in Franklin, out of this home. The next owner, Robert L. Porter, an influential Franklin businessman, resided in the home from 1910 until his death in 1912. After his death, his widow Florence Porter built several additions and turned the property into the first tourist home outside the city limits of Franklin. The "Oak Hill Hotel" as it was called, operated until 1928. She also built 5 guest cottages, of which one still remains and has been completely restored. Today, this charming dwelling has been fully restored to afford you every modern lodging convenience, without distracting from the sense of gracious comfort, which the original owners created. |
