Frequently Asked Questions

What makes a Private Estate Buyout different?

Both a Full-Inn Stay and Private Estate Buyout reserve all seven guest rooms exclusively for your group.

A Private Estate Buyout goes further, providing expanded private use of the property, designated kitchen and refrigerator access, greater flexibility for approved visitors and gathering, and no unrelated public activity scheduled during the buyout period.

Simply put:

Full-Inn Stay: Stay together.

Private Estate Buyout: Make the Inn yours.


Why does the Private Estate Buyout cost more?

The Private Estate Buyout provides a different level of property access and flexibility.

In addition to reserving all seven guest rooms, your group receives expanded private use of the Inn, designated kitchen and refrigerator access, included approved rollaways, greater visitor and gathering flexibility, expanded photography and décor privileges, and a later checkout.



Will there be tours or other events during our stay?

No unrelated tours, public consultations, or outside events are scheduled during your Private Estate Buyout.

The Magnolia Inn remains professionally operated and staffed, and authorized team members and service providers may access the property as necessary to provide hospitality, breakfast, housekeeping, maintenance, safety, and other services.


Can we invite daytime visitors?

Yes.

A Private Estate Buyout allows up to 24 people total on the property at one time for informal use, including registered overnight guests and approved daytime visitors.

Gatherings of 25 or more people require a separate Event Agreement.


Can we bring groceries, food, and beverages?

Yes. Private Estate guests may stock designated guest kitchen and refrigerator areas with groceries, snacks, food, and personal beverages for their stay.

Professional catering, bartending, staffed food service, formal buffets, and other event-style food or beverage service require advance approval and may require a separate Event Agreement.


Do we need to reset the common spaces each evening?

Not for normal Estate use.

One of the advantages of a Private Estate Buyout is greater flexibility to settle into the Inn’s living spaces throughout your stay. We simply ask that guests care for the historic property and follow applicable Estate and property guidelines.


Can we host an event?

A Private Estate Buyout provides expanded gathering privileges, but it does not automatically include an organized event.

Ceremonies, receptions, rehearsal dinners, welcome parties, showers, staffed catering, bartending, hired entertainment, substantial event décor, and similar event-style activities require advance approval and may require a separate Event Agreement regardless of attendance.


Why would I choose this instead of a Full-Inn Stay?

Choose a Full-Inn Stay when your priority is having everyone stay together while enjoying the traditional service and hospitality of a boutique inn.

Choose a Private Estate Buyout when you want The Magnolia Inn itself to become part of your weekend—with greater privacy, expanded property use, kitchen and refrigerator access, more flexibility for visitors and gathering, and the freedom to settle into the Inn more like your group’s private estate.

“The Magnolia Inn didn’t feel like a hotel—it felt like our family’s home for the weekend. We lingered over breakfast, gathered throughout the house, and never once felt rushed. It was everything we hoped our celebration would be.”
