About this property

Captain's Suite | Engadine Inn & Cabins

Description

Stay in the heart of Engadine’s history in the Captains Suite, named for Captain John Keais Hoyt who built the mansion in 1885 after returning from the Civil War. This spacious suite blends Victorian elegance with modern comfort and includes a private bathroom, fireplace, and elegant period details.

Historic Touch
Captain Hoyt established Engadine as both a family estate and a thriving vineyard that produced award winning wines shipped nationwide. His daughter Mamie recalled evenings by the fire, the sound of vineyard workers singing across the valley, and the festive Christmas mornings when her father would fill the halls with laughter. Today the Captains Suite carries that same warmth and legacy for modern guests.

Bed and Breakfast Experience
As a guest in the Captains Suite you’ll enjoy Engadine’s full bed and breakfast experience. Each morning begins with a complimentary homemade breakfast served in the inn’s dining room, prepared with care to give you a true taste of the mountains before you set out on your day’s adventure.

Scenic Setting
Relax with sweeping mountain views and the peaceful sound of nearby Hominy Creek. Wander the inn’s porches and gardens or head out to nearby hiking trails in the Blue Ridge Mountains. With Asheville just minutes away, you can balance historic charm with city exploration.
