Blue Ridge Parkway Kid friendly Vacations

First, there is no blocked off space to check-in but a bus stop. Then when trying to get into the buildings the door is locked and no one is at the front desk that you can see through the windows. Wait and wait. Finally get in and there is no valet to help with our bags. We did everything. The room was okay. In hindsight, we would have been better off at a Hampton Inn at a much cheaper price. I feel like the 9.7 rating was not legit. No way. The street is very hustle bustle which some may like but not us. FINALLY, there is no parking in their lot bc of a market happening the next day. Parking deck is two blocks away!! Street parking is an option only IF you can find a spot.

There was constant flooding in the hall between our wing to the main hall due to rolling thunderstorms. The gorge hike is disappointing - it’s only 0.68 miles because a stair bridge is broken so the guide stalls with nature talks because if you were to actually hike it, it would take less than 20 minutes to reach the broken stair bridge. The experiences such as axe throwing and zip line are over priced / not worth it. The archery was fun as they have animal targets. Bingo is fun and you can win prizes. The pool is nice but rolling thunderstorms limit your access in the afternoon (we went in August). We had connecting rooms and they were decent.

Fun and different lodging experience, well suited to people who like to be closer to nature without the hassle of hauling your own camper. A little pricey, and amenities more suited to families (we were three buddies on a trip). Overall, a great experience.

Awesome place to visit and great staff.

It's our third time staying, & the staff remains exemplary. They are the standout and the reason that we will always stay at the o henry. It was wonderful seeing Sherone again. Hannah, Lakiya,& other front desk goddesses are delightful. The tea & jazz staff are fantastic. Kate & Courtney improved our mornings dramatically, & Ashleigh was lovely for our dinner. Tyler and the other porters are fantastic at their jobs, though it hurt my heart to see them dressed like it was 50 degrees out amidst the brutal heat & humidity. It would be lovely if they could lose the sweater vest and long sleeves and have more suitable summer attire. The only downside was I had to use my cell as a Hotspot to access wifi for my tablet, my dad's laptop, and our Amazon fire.

Good location right in the middle of town. The only issue was the parking. You have to park on the street and only in certain areas so you don’t get towed. Property was clean and quiet.
