Terrific B&B in the Mountains
John & Marsha are the perfect hosts of this beautiful B&B in the mountains. Breakfast was tasty and unique each day we were there. The room was on the second floor which require a fairly steep flight of stairs. It is central to the area; Blowing Rock, Boone,Banner Elk, etc.

Birthday celebration
We had a wonderful stay at the Lazy Bear Lodge. The hosts are very friendly and accommodating. The Lodge was beautifully decorated, super clean, comfortable and had amazing views of the mountains. The breakfast was very good and the snacks and drinks were a welcome touch. Will definitely go back soon!

Attention was given to every detail including exceptional sheets, the best soaps and shampoo, and a refrigerator stocked with complimentary sodas, flavored waters, and beer, as well as snack foods and coffee and tea. The facility was immaculate and provided beautiful mountain views as well as a relaxing front garden. Our only negative thoughts were regarding the breakfast. While the morning's menu was posted the day before, and the food both days was really good, it was a light meal and you weren't given options unless you said you had a restricted diet. I understand that with a fixed menu you can save on food costs and not have waste, but even a choice of cereal with milk or a couple eggs in addition to the delicious prepared menu would have provided inexpensive yet valued options.
