Unfortunately, the vast majority of the hotels from this era either succumbed to fire or being torn down for building materials. According to the Tennessee Archives, fewer than a dozen from the era remain standing in Tennessee. Mr. William O. Treanor and nephew John Bell Treanor of Nashville moved to the Turnbull Valley farm in the late 1800s and found that the springs had medicinal qualities. John began Willow Brook water company which exported hundreds of gallons of the water throughout the nation regularly. The springs added to the resort appeal. The Treanors were of major importance to Craggie Hope. They purchased a tract of three thousand two hundred forty seven acres () in 1885 from the Woods family. On it they ran Treanors Mills. One produced lumber, and the other grist from grain. They also ran a brick yard manufacturing brick. All six of the Treanor boys attended Montgomery Bell Academy riding the train into Nashville daily from the station at Craggie Hope. The mill was destroyed by fire in 1952 and the old Treanor home burned during the first week of December 1955. (Source, Nashville Banner, December 7, 1955 and Robert A. Miller, A Turnbull Trilogy, page 89, 2010.) As a summer resort, there was the main hotel and then several picturesque and rustic cottages which housed some of Nashville's best known families. To the left of the main hotel was the Bennett-Hunter-Baxter cottage made entirely from local chestnut wood including the framing, siding and interior walls and woodwork. It was the summer home for the family of Nashville city Treasurer R. A. Bennett, and the families of Paul Hunter and John Baxter. A few cottages remain today as remnants of the once-thriving spa and resort community. Names given to the cottages included Hearts Ease, Brookside and the Wren's Nest. Maple Shade is the best known home in Craggie Hope, although its history is a little unusual. It is actually made of two spa-era cottages moved from nearby, circa 1915, to the present location and built on piers with a "dog trot" between them. Although not a full-scale hotel, it did serve guests who have memories of stays there until World War II. Cottages behind served as guest houses and one of those also still survives. It is one of the few surviving inns left in Tennessee from that era and is in the process of being restored
