Meet the Innkeepers
Meet Katy Clavin and Michael Cys
The day we were engaged to be married, we walked into the Red Rocker and instantly knew running this beautiful and historic Inn would be the fulfilment of our life-long dreams. As a former restaurant owner, Katy recognized the high quality of the award-winning cuisine and the special character of each room at the Inn. Along with Mike’s background in management and communications, we are dedicated to continuing the high level of service guests have come to expect from the Red Rocker. After first dating while in college, we were serendipitously reacquainted in 2021 and rekindled our romance. We married in June 2022.
