This is the second time we have stayed at this hotel and both times we had a wonderful experience. The sausage biscuits for breakfast were amazing. The only negative is the coffee is not the best I’ve ever drank but not the worst either. Overall fantastic hotel and the location is exceptional. We will be back.

Hotel is nice and comfy. There were just 3 easy things I hope they can improve: 1) room floor could’ve been better swept 2) there were only 3 full size towels for 4 people 3) we could not get hot water.

Pleasantly surprised at how lovely this places was. It has a historic home feel with many beautiful details but also felt like a second home. Our room was very clean with a very attentive front desk and housekeeper. Highly recommend staying here & I hope to return in the warmer months to enjoy the pool and take advantage of the horse riding stables right next door. . Only one small improvement needed-but requires money. The game room needs a face lift cause it could be SO amazing. Other than that-just wonderful!!!

The cabin we were in needed a lot of TLC as to painting. The refrig had large scap marks on it, and the molding on the bath door had a big finger print and paint worn completely off. This cabin should not be rented as is. Also the area around the wall ac/heat unit was in terrible condtion letting cold air easily enter the room. Staff was excellant, grounds beautiful.

I checked in using their after hours procedure and everything was perfect! They were very responsive when I locked my key in my room and were able to get me back in my room quickly. I love that they text you to make sure you made it to your room and they always remind you to come by the desk in the morning for biscuits and coffee. I usually stay there when I take courses at the NOC but I plan to bring my family back soon. The kids will love the game room and pool (in the warmer months). With prices comparable and often times cheaper than nearby lodging I will definitely be coming back!

We’ll be back, Nantahala!

Our stay was excellent! From the moment we made the reservation the hotel staff reached out to us and confirm and to let us know about the hotel. When we arrived, the manager was AWESOME!! She checked us in, gave me a tour, told me about the local amenities and every time we saw her she was friendly and helpful! The rooms were beautiful for it being a 1930-40’s hotel and we had no problems at all. The pool was relaxing and across the street is a great coffee/ice cream/bar and lounge. Super friendly folks there too! We had a fantastic time.

This is the third time we have stayed here in the past 5 years as it is very convenient to the Nantahala river for white water rafting. It has always been a bit dated , but since our last visit they have been updating the property. Things are looking much nicer and more comfortable. The staff is always very nice. Would definitely stay here again in the future.
