Long View Resort

8/10 Good

"Salmon and steak were beyond well done and almost inedible. Easy fix…watch some videos and elevate the preparation. For the price of dinner it should be much better."

Lake Chatuge Lodge

"Very centrally located very clean the staff are amazing"

Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham Bryson City

10/10 Excellent

"Great air conditioner! Beds very comfortable. Lighting in rooms was outstanding in comparison to other places I have stayed. The only thing was the breakfast was minimal and didn't have many choices as I have seen at others. I would stay again."

Alarka Cabin Guest House With Great Mountain Sunsets And WiFi Included

10/10 Excellent

"The cottage was cozy, and perfect for a weekend get away! The place has a wonderful view, and the best welcome with Inola! A return trip will be made soon!"

Chatuge Mountain Inn

8/10 Good

"This property would more appropriately be called a motel. However, it was everything we needed for our plans. Good location for our purposes and a very good price. We arrived later than expected but the proprietor was very accommodating and pleasant. One thing I really want to commend them for may sound odd, but it matters to us: there were blankets on the bed, not just a sheet and comforter. It amazes me that high end hotels will charge a lot of money for beds with no blankets, just heavy comforters that are too hot in the summer and when you throw then off, it is too cold with just the sheet. This sweet little place had nice blankets - old school and thank you!!"

Franklin Terrace Bed and Breakfast

8/10 Good

"This is a late-1800s property in a convenient in-town location. Some deferred maintenance was seen, but it was very serviceable. Rooms were clean & good sized, but our bathroom shower was TINY. Lots of public areas to relax & enjoy the views. Owner was very helpful with recommendations for area restaurants & things to see/do. Breakfast was great, with a good mix of hot & cold items. Owner even insisted on giving us a "to-go bag" as we were leaving before breakfast started."

Sky Ridge Yurts

10/10 Excellent

"This was the first time staying in a yurt. It was beautiful and had everything you would need. Communication with sky ridge was great they are great."
