Sweet historic house in the heart of Valle Crucis, great communication and easy self check-in. Check website for "extras" like weekend food options and fun things across the street, enjoyed the pm music and nordic sauna! Great front porch with a view, lovely tubs in rooms, lots of personality! Definitely read details on room location if guests with mobility issues but lovely!

The room was very pretty and the historic aspect was great. Pillows and bed were very comfortable . Towels were less than desirable and the staff was not really very present. You pick up a key and drop it off without a smiling face.

Quaint but pricey

It was okay. Quaint atmosphere, but Noisy Road next to Inn. Close to nearby attractions 7-10 miles. At this price and all the taxes loaded on it, it should have offered free breakfast. The First morning a continental breakfast was offered, but not the second day (as they were bringing in a chef to cook a full breakfast at a cost). Recommend local police put a crosswalk to go to the barn across the street and flashing warning lights around the bend to slow down speeders. Very dangerous especially for children.
