Beechwood Inn, Clayton, Georgia, Teams with Tesla Motors – Tesla Destination Charging now offered as new amenity for guests

Clayton, Georgia – January 7, 2016 – Beechwood Inn has teamed with Tesla Motors to provide an increasingly desirable amenity; Tesla Destination Charging. Tesla High Power Wall Connectors add 58 miles of range per hour to Model S, charging the vehicle overnight and replicating the convenience Tesla owners are accustomed to at home.

Beechwood Inn is one of the few locations in North Georgia offering Tesla Destination Charging with a 100 amp fast charging station. Co-Owner David Darugh said “Beechwood Inn is a Historic Property that offers cutting-edge Tesla Technology consistent with our other eco-conscious practices. Beechwood Inn has been designated a Gold Level Green Partner in the TripAdvisor® GreenLeaders™ program, which helps travelers plan greener trips by identifying environmentally-friendly accommodations. This is yet another in a long list of high-end amenities Beechwood Inn offers our guests.”

Beechwood Inn joins a rapidly growing network of resorts in Tesla Destination Charging, including more than 170 other Select Registry properties throughout the U.S. This new program offers High Power Connectors as an amenity for visitors, allowing them to charge their Tesla Model S at locations where they want to stay for several hours like hotels, ski resorts, and restaurants. Model S offers 270 miles of range on a single charge so the High Power Wall Connector can easily top off the Tesla in just a few hours, giving Tesla drivers the freedom to charge almost anywhere they want to travel! Beechwood inn now offers two charging stations, the new 100Amp Tesla Wall Connector and an existing 40amp Blink Charging Station.  Beechwood Inn guests receive complimentary charging and non-guests pay $15.00.

Co-Owner Gayle Darugh said “The decision to install Electric Vehicle Charging Stations was easy. Our first charging station was paid for by a government grant, the Tesla Charger was paid for by Tesla. At Beechwood Inn we’re constantly finding new ways to heighten the guests’ experience. By combining leading-edge technology and the forward-thinking of Tesla with our commitment to provide outstanding service and offerings, we now have the ability to offer guests a seamless and convenient charging experience during their stay.”

Beechwood Inn and other Tesla Destination Charging locations are hosted on Tesla’s interactive webpage and will soon be GPS located on Model S’ navigation through a free software update sent wirelessly to the car. In coming months, Tesla owners will be able to use the Model S 17” touchscreen to easily plan trips and locate properties like Beechwood Inn offering Tesla Destination Charging.  Visit www.teslamotors.com/findus for more information.
