We stayed here during the Labor Day weekend and the Ladybug Cottage was cozy and immaculate. The bed was comfortable, linens fresh and new, and the quilt was warm during nights of open windows and fresh mountain air. While we didn’t use the microwave or dishes, they, along with the mini fridge, were appreciated. The best part was the location, on the end of the property, near the driveway that was a nightly path of black bears heading to the Rocky Broad River and back. Pure magic. There is also a beautiful waterfall feature and pool. We will return to Ladybug as often as we can. The view of Chimney Rock, the river and the location are all reasons for many happy returns.
Beautiful little slice of Heaven, we will definitely be making this a regular getaway spot! My fiance and I got away for the weekend in the Mimosa Cottage , the views were just the best , we got to spend some alone time together in the most beautiful place to do it , all of the staff went ABSOLUTELY ABOVE AND BEYOND for us , the best service I have ever had . It’s a beautiful space with a beautiful vibe .
A beautiful and quant venue to stay with a terrific view of Chimney Rock across the way. The rooms were very clean and the service was very personable. It's a bit tight in the bathroom area but the facilities were very clean. The beds were soft and comfortable.
We had a super peaceful stay in the mimosa cottage. Tabitha was super accommodating and a huge help to us. The room was clean and the view of chimney rock was beautiful. The town is super special and the locals welcoming. Will definitely be back.
Absolutely loved our stay! It was our first family mountain trip with our child and they made sure to make her feel extra special by including a note and some hot chocolate at the morning coffee station ! Location was perfectly located near chimney rock state park and lake lure! Room was cute, clean, and well decorated! Will be coming back!
Nice little Inn. Great location. The Mimosa cottage is precious. Tabitha took great care of us. She's the best. Can't wait to come back. Love the Chimney Rock area and so happy to see it coming to life again.
We came back to Chimney Rock after being away 2 years. Everything was reminiscent of pre-Hurricane Helene. The room here was clean, cozy, and had great views of Chimney Rock mountain. The manager was friendly and she brought us a tray with coffee and cups, sugar, etc. so we could have coffee in the mornings. They also have coffee in the office area and a snack machine, ice, books, and a calming sitting area by a small pond with a little waterfall. I loved the rocking chairs overlooking the road and you can see the river across the street. Good prices, too!
Great hotel, amazing view and the most caring staff. For anyone seeking a peaceful, impeccably run retreat where you are treated more than just a guest, I cannot recommend this hidden gem highly enough.
