This year, for our area the Farmer’s Almanac predicted a cooler, rainier spring and early summer than we normally experience. So far, that has held true. All the rain has kept the temperatures down and the grass green. Whether you’re just passing through town, running kids to summer camp, planning a romantic weekend or you need a place for an extended stay, we invite you to make Rosevine Inn your home away from home.

In this issue, you’ll find what makes us a great choice for an extended stay and a rundown of East Texas activities happening this month.
