Just to be in the quiet solitude of the foothills of the Smokies and sit on the porch with those I love is what I look forward to and enjoy to the fullest.

This was our first stay at a B&B and it was wonderful. Everyone was very helpful and made us feel right at home. We were there for a wedding with family and freinds and it gave us time to just relax and vist. The property is beautiful and very well maintained. I would also enjoy staying in one of the cottages. Thank you so much!

Thank you for your patience with our very active grandsons! Cleanliness of house was remarkable! The care in landscaping is beyond words!!!! Everyone we dealt with was professional and very accomodating and we would love to visit again. We really felt that we had escaped the "recession" if only for a few days. Fireworks were a wonderful end to a glorious day! We appreciated riding the "mule" to mountain top otherwise it would have been too far for us to walk. The view is breath taking.

Wonderful place to visit/stay! I recommend staying more than a few days. There are many things to do, and the hospitality is second to none. I will take as many honeymoons as I can afford at Hawkesdene. I will also be back to renew my wedding vows.

These are cottages, with all the ammentites. Even a washer and dryer! Your Host is great... and readily available to answer your questions. The animals are fun. The location is close to many things. You won't want to leave, but do get out and see what is out and about. Do hike to the top of the mountain. Take a walking stick (provided). This was my second visit.

This was our first trip to Hawkesdene House and we look forward to returning. My wife and I brought our 10 year old grandaughter, Montana, along with us. We had no plans so we could just spend our time with Montana, knowing there was a lot of shopping and looking in store. From the moment we drove on the property until we left after a two night stay, we left only to take care of our unexpected car repair. Montana loved all the animals. Her best friends became Houdini, Henry and Gracie. The escape artist, Houdini, a Great White Pyrenees became the one she did not want to leave behind. We spent our time on the hiking trails, enjoying the cool breeze outside and playing in the stream. It was a great time for us as well as Montana. Our unexpected car problems were handled by Sandy who made phone calls and also led us to the garage for repairs...20 miles away. She really went the second-mile to help us. Thanks Sandy! Hawkesdene is a beautiful home as well as the surrounding property. We recommend a stay whole heartedly. Thomas, Linda and Montana

My fiance and I visited this bed and breakfast because we have been considering it for our fall wedding. The location is perfect and the friendly and professional service was remarkable. We are thrilled about getting married at Hawkesdene and are glad our families will be there to enjoy the comforts we had this past weekend.

My husband and I arrived at the Hawkesdene B&B, May 3rd for two nights. The home is beautiful, the rooms are furnished elongately, the greeting from the staff was warm and inviting. Sandy even made a chocolate pie for the afternoon snack. We felt we were a thousand miles away on an estate in the mountains. The food was delicious and served first class. We have stayed in B&B from Oregon to Maine and this was by far the nicest experience we have enjoyed. We plan on returning many times in the future and bringing friends.

Our four night stay at Hawkesdene coundn't have been more relaxing. Whether hiking the trails with Henry the resident housedog or just wandering the beautiful grounds, we loved this place. Caretaker Sandy went way out of her way to make sure that all our needs were met, including suggesting day trips and providing maps. Continuing on to Asheville for the rest of our trip, we wished we had stayed at Hawkesdene longer. 5 Stars across the board! We'll definitely be back.

Hawkesdene House is a Bed and Breakfast like no other. The grounds are gorgeous and affords an excellent assortment of activities- you can be as relaxed or active as you want! We especially enjoyed the hike to a hidden waterfall. The accomodations were wonderful (we stayed in the Snowbird Suite)and very comfortable. We were amazed at Sandy's delicious cooking as well- that alone is worth the trip! Overall, an excellent experience for the two of us who often find B&Bs to be too restrictive and sometimes overbearing...at Hawkesdene you have the freedom to do as much or as little as you wish!

Thanks for a wonderful weekend! The house and property are spectacular. I love the hiking trails leaving from the property. We are so excited that we have chosen Hawesdene for our upcoming wedding. You have made everything so easy for us and we know we are going to feel at home and everyone is going to have a relaxing but fun time. Look forward to visiting again in a month.

Pictures did not do Hawkesdene justice. It is a a gem of the mountains designed to nestle visitors in a peaceful setting that calms the soul from the moment the door opens. Even the llamas, the dogs and donkies know how to welcome guests. Delicious food, exquisite rooms and beautifully landscaped encourage meditation. We are looking forward to bringing a group of writers here for a retreat.

In 25 years of visiting B&B's, Hawkesdene House as one of the very best we have ever experienced. The setting, the accomodations, the beautiful grounds and gardens, the food and the service were top notch. The innkeeper was a delight and we can't wait to return.
