Guest Rooms
Ewing
Named for the long time owners of the Carlisle House, the Ewings have been a part of Carlisle history since 1853. William and Jessie Ewing purchased the home in 1927.
As the original 1st-floor front parlor, a remarkable feature of the room is the original Ben Franklin type fireplace insert, which warmed the home much more efficiently than just a tradition fireplace. This stove, which is now just ornamental, the marbleized slate mantle, 11-foot ceilings with both crown and chair moldings lend an appropriate period touch to the decor of this dramatic room.
For your comfort, this front room has been equipped with a burl wood two-poster king bed and wifi.
A double in-room whirlpool bath with twin showers offers you enjoyment by the light of the early 1930s pewter chandelier, and an en-suite half bath completes the room.
