Peaceful, tranquil, they have a small library which is a huge plus to me. I would definitely go again. Loved the waterfall, pool was clean and accessible. Fresh coffee on the front porch to set out and enjoy the setting was a major plus for us and let’s not forget the bears! Super enjoyable
These baby cubs and the mama was seen down the road at the eatery
If you will notice the bear that just happened across the road when I was taking a picture of the mountain

A Perfect Stay – Cozy, Immaculate, and Unforgettab

An amazing place — maybe even the best we’ve tried so far! This beautifully cozy accommodation has been recently renovated, with an excellent level of cleanliness and a charming, welcoming atmosphere that carries a nostalgic, countryside feel. It truly created wonderful memories for us. The check-in process was very smooth and pleasant. Even though we arrived early in the morning around 10 AM just to look around, they warmly welcomed us, checked us in, and handed over our room right away. Cleanliness and hygiene were absolutely perfect — we would give it a full 10 out of 10. The pool was spotless, the public areas were sparkling clean, and the room, beds, bathroom, and shower were all in excellent condition. Both the reception and hotel management, as well as the housekeeping and service staff, were genuinely wonderful and friendly. Location-wise, it’s only a 2-minute drive to the entrance of Chimney Rock State Park, and about 10 minutes from a large Super Center store and activities like zip-lining and horseback riding. We highly recommend this place, and if we return to the area, it will definitely be at the top of our list again!

Room was small but cozy, however, there's a huge front porch/deck across the length of the hotel with rocking chairs plus "picnic" tables. The property has hotel rooms and cabin rentals. The hotel rooms have been very nicely updated and decorated by the new owners and cabins will be updated soon. There's a beautifully landscaped waterfall and bushes planted around the fenced in pool that give a sense of privacy. My sister and I had a quiet, relaxing stay. Highly recommend!

WORST beds EVER!

This is the worst beds we've EVER experienced and i'm 54 with COUNTLESS vacations. the beds must be over 30 years old since it made a 'V" when i laid down in it. first, double beds are ridiculous today. my wife and I couldn't share a double bed and she's only 5'2" and 110 pounds! so we split our 7 and 8 year old kids between us. because the beds were SOOOOO old and the 'v' my daughter, sleeping with me, kept FALLING down towards me and woke me up COUNTLESS of times. you can buy $400 mattresses that are reasonbably firm! there is NO excuse for 30 year old mattresses! SOOOOOOOO disappointed!

We cut our trip short by one day and left early. The staff was very nice and tried to be helpful but we found the other occupants to be very rude. People were smoking marijuana around our room and partying until 2:00am. We reported.to staff and they were accomodating but we got no sleep. This was not the cute "inn" we were expecting. Its an old motel that has had some updates.
