205 Melody Lane

205 Melody Lane was so pleased to have George and Sandra Burrow back for another visit. Sandra is attending her 61st class reunion and 205 treated the Burrow's to the annual Whaley Methodist Spaghetti Chicken dinner. Sandra barely ate her meal because everyone she taught school with and taught were greeting her.

Tonight's city council meeting was very positive. The council did not shut down 205; however, they agreed to revisit the ordinances and determine what is needed to get into to the 21st century. Hopefully, mindsets will change. I will keep you posted on future developments.

Save the date to "Save 205". Apparently someone of the city of Gainesville zoning wants to shut 205 down.

Please come to the city council meeting on November 7 @ 6:30 to show your support for 205. If you can't be there and want to show your support anyway then please email [email protected] and cc [email protected]

Thanks!

We're all about continuous improvement here at 205 Melody Lane. Based on the feedback of my recent guests, I've updated the dining room furniture.

Bring your families and enjoy all the Gainesville, Cooke county, and the north Texas area has to offer.

I'm always glad when guests have a great experience at 205!

A recent visitor left me this review: "We enjoyed our stay and will without question stay here again. This is probably the best overnight spot in Gainesville, especially for the value. We all highly recommend Jeffrey's"

I'm happy that folks appreciate the hard work I put into making sure they have a good stay.

205 Melody Lane was grateful to have four guests the entire month of May. Now comes the exciting aspect of being an Innkeeper and restoring this home to my highly obsessive compulsive standards in less than 36 hours.
