Description
Select Registry carries out a quality assurance inspection for each of its nearly 400 inns. This program involves independent inspectors-not employees of Select Registry-with years of experience in the hospitality industry. The inspectors arrive unidentified, spend the night, and evaluate the inn on a detailed point system, which translates into a pass/fail grade for the inn. Inns applying for membership are inspected, as are existing members on a periodic schedule.
In 1995, the status of the Huron Band as an Indian Tribe was reaffirmed, making the tribe a sovereign nation having a nation-to-nation relationship with the federal government. The mission of the Tribe is to provide leadership for Tribal members and serve as a model to other Native Americans in areas of self-government, self-reliance, and self-empowerment. The Tribe's goal is to provide its membership the best in healthcare, educational opportunities, housing and economic opportunities as a sovereign Native American nation.
The association was founded in the late 1960s by Norman Simpson, the "father of Country Inn travel in America." In his pioneering book, Country Inns and Back Roads, Simpson noted that "each (member) inn is original and unique, a reflection of the personalities and tastes of the individual innkeeper-owners…this was never intended to be a total guide to country inns in the United States and Canada, (but rather) a carefully selected group of inns.
