    serene grounds
    limited breakfast variety

    The lodge is nestled in a tranquil setting with beautiful grounds, including a koi pond and a peaceful meditation maze that provide a lovely retreat after a day of hiking.

    While the breakfast offerings were flavorful and homemade, I would have preferred more variety, especially for those with specific dietary needs.

    breakfast options
    lack of upgrades

    The stay was a true letdown. I expected a sumptuous breakfast, not just 'ok' food like a chain hotel. The lack of walkable options really cramped my style, and woudl ve been nice to get a complimentary room upgrade for my troubles. Almost thought of giving a good review, but just couldn’t do it. Disappointing.

    great access to hiking trails and local hot springs

    my stay was fantastic because the Appalachian Trail was literally steps away, making for beautiful hiking experiences right out the door, and we also loved that the hot springs resort and spa was only a short 15-minute walk for some relaxation after our adventures.

    homemade breakfast
    limited breakfast variety

    The homemade breakfast offerings were a delightful start to each day, particularly the fresh in-season fruit and homemade biscuits.

    The breakfast options were on the simpler side and could benefit from additional variety.

    breathtaking views
    lackluster breakfast
    remote location

    Breathtaking mountain views and peaceful surroundings.

    I had a disappointing experience with the dining options here. The breakfast was lackluster and barely better than a chain hotel. Additionally, the location was quite remote with not many dining options nearby, which made finding a decent meal a frustrating task.

    cozy common areas
    great local recommendations
    lack of kids' activities

    We had an amazing time hiking on the Appalachian Trail and experienced stunning views at the top. Debra made us feel right at home, showing us around and providing great local recommendations. The common areas like the library and gardens were cozy and inviting for family bonding.

    My wife says that more organized kids' activities would enhance family stays.

    I had a lovely stay recently! The homemade granola for breakfast was a highlight, and the meditation maze really added to the peaceful vibe. However, I wish there were more walkable options nearby.

    access to hiking trails
    limited dining options

    The location was a true gem for backpackers like me, with direct access to the Appalachian Trail and serene surroundings perfect for relaxation after a long trek. I particularly enjoyed the beauty of the grounds, which featured a koi pond and a peaceful meditation maze, providing a lovely retreat after a day outdoors. The homemade breakfast was a delightful bonus, especially the granola, which fueled my adventures.

    The lack of convenient dining options nearby was a slight inconvenience for evening meals.
