Be aware that at the moment blue ridge parkway is not quite open. You might have surprises getting to the hotel. But it is worth it.

The terrace was off limits both Friday and Saturday. The terrace overlooks the mountains. They had a wedding party that reserved the entire place. Definitely feel they should have told us and we would have picked a different weekend Food was marginal at the restaurant

Everything was good besides the service in the restaurant and in the shops waitresses didn't want to come around and ask if you needed anything and in the shops the workers wouldn't even talk to you just playing on their phones

The view is beautiful, rooms clean and comfy. Enjoyed the patio bar and food service. Most of the shops were closed during our stay unfortunately. Computer problems due to a lightening strike but the staff did a great job accommodating guests.

Such a wonderful place to stay - moreso perhaps when on business as it offers such a nice change of pace and setting even if you have to still get some work done... Wonderful staff and great dining.
