Located in historic Harriman, Tennessee's Cornstalk Heights National Historic District, Bushrod Hall represents the elegant lifestyle of 100 years ago. This splendid property offers our guests a unique experience in living history when this home was the Hall of Domestic Science of the American Temperance University and Harriman was a booming utopia for "thrift, sobriety, superior intelligence and exalted moral character..." This beautiful Victorian Home was completed in 1892, as the home of Samuel K. Paige, President of the Paige Manufacturing Company. Fitted with central heat from a coal furnace, electrical wiring and indoor plumbing , the home is a testament to the ingenuity and insight of Mr. Paige. It was said that the Paige home was “the most handsomely furnished home in Harriman ”. The mosaic wood floors, high ceiling, and beautifully crafted woodwork make Bushrod Hall a testimony to a forgotten age.
