Our Story

Built for Those Who Seek
Stillness

Ellsworth's Rocky Top Retreat sits along Rough House Hollow Road, a quiet stretch in Mooresburg where the pace slows and the hills roll endlessly. We opened our doors to give travelers a place that isn't rushed — a lodging experience rooted in genuine hospitality and the simple pleasure of a good night's rest.

Whether you're passing through East Tennessee or planning a weekend to unplug, our retreat offers a grounded, welcoming atmosphere. Clean rooms, honest service, and a setting that reminds you what a real getaway feels like.
