Netherland Inn
The Netherland Inn and Complex is a historic house museum located in Kingsport, Tennessee, United States. Built in 1802 to serve as a boat yard for salt distribution, the property was eventually sold, and in 1818 it became the Netherland Inn, serving travelers en route from Middle Tennessee to Western Kentucky.〔 The inn and boatyard is the only place on the National Register of Historic Places that served as a stage stop and a boatyard.
==History==
The building was originally built in 1802, and then expanded in 1808, by William King. King built it with the goal of creating a boatyard to ship the salt he produced. Eventually, the building would be sold in 1818 to Richard Netherland, who build Netherland as it exists today: a 3-story building with an inn and a tavern on Great Old Stage Road; the main route between Western Kentucky and Middle Tennessee. Notable people such as Andrew Jackson, Andrew Johnson and James Polk visited the inn. Prominent state legislator John Netherland, a son of Richard, grew up at the inn.〔Marie Day and W. Calvin Dickenson, "The Netherland Inn," East Tennessee Historical Society ''Publications'', Vol. 60 (1980), pp. 75-76.〕
The inn stayed in the Netherland family until 1906, when it was acquired by H.C. and Nettie Cloud, who used it as a boarding house and their own home. In 1968, it was bought by the Netherland Inn Association, who preserved the building as a historic house museum.〔 The inn and boatyard was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on December 23, 1969, and is the only site that has served as both a boatyard and a stagestop.
