Sometimes the groove we’re in is actually a rut. That’s how Steve Nygren describes his feelings when he decided to step off the corporate treadmill and make the move to Chattahoochee Hill Country.

Steve also discusses opening a bed & breakfast, now known as The Inn at Serenbe, during the 1996 Olympics.
