Cute, clean, quiet, comfortable and had everything we needed. Great location, great price. Would totally stay here again. FYI- it is a motel-type inn where the doors open to the outside, but there are cute rocking chairs right outside the door and it’s in downtown Blowing Rock which is quaint and walkable.

Lovely and quaint!

Lovely quaint hotel only a few blocks from the Main Street of Blowing Rock. The rooms are comfortable and the amenities are great. We loved staying here plus it is pet friendly so we were able to bring our Great Pyrenees dog with us. The staff are very friendly and helpful as well. We will definitely stay here again.

Love how little it is. Makes it more private. They use old fashion keys instead of cards and I love that so so much lol! Would definitely recommend to stay here again if only we weren’t moving back to California!

Great property. Very walkable to all restaurants and shops. Stayed in the Tarheel Suite. Its was clean and nicely decorated. Only complaint is below us woke us up in the morning with slamming doors and talking loud. Not sure if its a common area or maybe cleaning. Other than that its a nice place to stay and we will be back with our pup.

The property is older but has obviously had some updates. The updates produce sort of a quaint feel to the room. All the necessary elements are there. One unusual feature was that it has sort of a "shutter door" that you can hook if you want to allow airflow in the room and not have the main door locked. I received a call a couple of days prior to travel to let me know what to expect in terms of check in and check out. It is family own and run and they have several different properties, so there is a self-serve aspect to it. Lots of resources about the area and a phone number stating where to reach someone if we had any issues was included with our check-in information. We really enjoyed the proximity to downtown and the Famous Toastery next door. It was quite a pleasant stay and the property was obviously under-booked in this "off off-season" during ASU's spring break. We had a pleasant time and enjoyed our stay there.
