Description

A rare hospitality, culinary, and museum destination is ready for its next steward: The Inn of the Patriots™, LLC, the White House Master Chefs Country Inn Bed & Breakfast, United Tastes of America Cooking School™, and United States Presidential Culinary Museum® in historic Grover, North Carolina. This one-of-a-kind property combines lodging, presidential history, culinary education, museum tourism, retail opportunity, and Southern hospitality into a memorable destination brand. The 12 room, 7 bedroom, 6.5 bathroom, 4,974 square foot Inn of the Patriots™ has operated as a nationally recognized attraction with a 4.7 Google rating, years of 9.8 ratings on Booking.com, numerous international awards, six appearances as a Wheel of Fortune prize, and multiple record-setting promotions through LivingSocial and Groupon. The Inn is built around the legacy of White House Master Chef Marti Mongiello and Executive Chef Stormy Mongiello, connecting guests to the culinary world of Presidents, First Families, Camp David, State Dinners, historic recipes, White House china, and the people behind American history. Guests experience far more than a room—they become part of a living story. The United States Presidential Culinary Museum® provides a truly distinctive attraction. Museum collections include presidential antiques, artifacts, letters, historic items, and authentic White House china. The museum’s interactive “taste history” concept transforms traditional tours into immersive experiences. The property has generated an extensive media footprint with hundreds of appearances and features through PBS, CBS, ABC, NBC, FOX, CNN International, FOOD TV Network Magazine, The Today Show, and numerous global broadcasts. Its story-driven brand continues to attract visitors through tourism, culinary education, and cultural experiences. Revenue opportunities extend well beyond overnight lodging. Income sources include accommodations, museum admissions, private tours, cooking classes, culinary getaways, gift shop sales, online retail, speaking engagements, traveling museum programs, filmed content, corporate retreats, themed dinners, school tours, and special events. Guest amenities include themed rooms with private baths, a library, underground gym, home theater, glass candy counter, movie nights, complimentary museum tours, free Wi-Fi, and near-gigabit internet service. The experience blends education, entertainment, and hospitality in a way few destinations can match. The property also benefits from its proximity to the 1.25 billion dollar Catawba Two Kings Casino in nearby Kings Mountain, a major regional tourism and entertainment driver that continues to increase demand for lodging, dining, and visitor experiences. The surrounding area offers wineries, spirits distilleries, Revolutionary War sites, music venues, trails, and small-town attractions, making the Inn an ideal base for regional tourism. Future opportunities include creating a community room, owner’s cottage, tiny-home accommodations, pool, hospitality garden, or expanded workshop uses. A contiguous 14-acre parcel may also be available for purchase, offering additional possibilities for retreats, events, trails, gardens, or future guest accommodations, subject to approvals and due diligence. Opportunities like this are rare because they cannot easily be replicated. This offering includes an established brand, museum collection, educational programming, media history, tourism identity, and presidential culinary legacy—all in one landmark property. Own the inn. Grow the school. Expand the museum. Continue a destination that gives guests an experience they will never forget.
