Mr. King is a distinguished innkeeper and owner of The Lindenwood Inn, having dedicated the last 30 years to transforming and managing the establishment. His journey in the hospitality industry began with the acquisition of The Lindenwood Inn at a pivotal point in his life. Prior to this, he managed the Kingsley Inn alongside his family, which provided him with invaluable experience in the industry. When faced with the choice of returning to Australia, Mr. King opted to remain on Southwest Island and purchased The Lindenwood Inn, a property that had been poorly remodeled by previous owners.

This people-oriented approach has been a cornerstone of Mr. King's career, even during challenging times.

Before venturing into innkeeping, Mr. King completed a four-year apprenticeship in cabinet-making in Australia. Although he chose not to pursue a career as a cabinet maker, the skills and knowledge he gained have proven invaluable in his current profession. His background in building and creating has enabled him to effectively manage refurbishments and maintain the inn's infrastructure.

Mr. King's achievements extend beyond his professional endeavors. He was featured in McCall's Magazine, highlighting his innovative approach to hospitality and design. His ability to trust his instincts and embrace decisive action has been a driving force behind his accomplishments. Despite encountering setbacks, Mr. King views each challenge as an opportunity for growth and learning.
