9/10 Wonderful! (182 reviews)
Loved this place & its quirkiness. You definitely need to notice the fine print which I may not have fully but isn’t a true B&B. However, there are plenty of free breakfast continental items and specialty coffees and teas for your enjoyment. Self service what you want and how ever much you want. Snacks and drinks always available. Saw a staff member 1 time in almost a 2 days; however, the modern & convenient text service works fantastic!! I did have to use & got immediate responses. So you feel like it’s your home practically. The bed was super comfy and loved the room. Sink was in the room outside the bathroom which was added quirkiness, but it did have slow backup so we couldn’t run the sink hardly. That was only hiccup which wasn’t a big deal. You are fairly close to things and definitely short drives to others. Would definitely come back!! And a great price!! Free parking!!

Google said it was only 10 miles away but it is further. We had a Hallmark moment at the Christmas lighting! :)

3/5 - Okay

it was a rainy day. Blowing Rock was in the clouds so really nothing to see. Go only when it's clear.
