Grandview Lodge

The place was warm and friendly, the food was very good and the Popcorn and Moonshine resturant and bar was great, the food was good the service was excellent, and yes we tasted moonshine, how cool is that !

Stayed in the Grandview Cottage with 3 other people and 2 dogs, really enjoyed the space. Had to use spider spray and kill about 50 spiders but other than that it was nice. Friendly dog on site named Harley, loved him. Beautiful scenary around the cottage in the town of Waynesville.

Rooms were clean but dated. Two sink bath. One ran cold and the other hot water. A/C did not work in room but the weather was nice so we used windows and ceiling fan. In the middle of a residential area, did not expect that. Owners were nice, laid back and helpful. Good place to lay your head and very close to the Smokey mountian parkway. T/V was old and small.

We didn't come in until late Friday night. A note was left at the front desk for us that our keys were in the door to our room (Lyn Lowry) and what time breakfast was the next morning. The room was very appalachian, and very much so what I expected. The room was small, but that's expected. The bathroom was a little snug, but the shower was spacious (could fit two people). It's a cozy place. If you're looking for the Hilton, this place isn't for you. If you're looking for good people, good service, and a peaceful environment then this is the place for you! Terry and Nancy were awesome, just like everyone else has said. The breakfast was really great. The hasbrown casserole was FABULOUS! My sole complaint would be that the walls are thin. We could hear our neighbor's conversations until 11:30pm the first night we were there. I do not believe that this is a reason to stay away from the place, though. Everything else outweighs that minor fault. If you bring ear plugs (like I always do), then your stay should be quite enjoyable!

Grandview Lodge is a small independent lodge. We spent my husband's birthday weekend there and had a great time. The small staff consists of folks from the over-50 crowd and we thoroughly enjoyed them. They were very hospitable and friendly, and aimed to please at all times. We stayed in the Balsam Room which was comfortable and clean. This is an older property but is well presented and maintained. We prefer the homey rustic atmosphere over fancy luxury. We had Friday night dinner at their restaurant, Popcorn's Moonshine Grill, complete with (legal) moonshine which we enjoyed on the wrap-around porch. Husband had the ribs, nicely done, and I had the southern catfish sandwich, the freshest and best catfish I've had in some time. We were fortunate to be on hand for the Friday night entertainment, a local bluegrass band. Although the audience was small (maybe 20 of us) the music was great and we all had a good time. A treat was watching innkeeper Terry and a young guest "cutting a rug" on the dance floor. Breakfast was considered to be "continental plus", the usual cold breakfast fare of a continental style such as cereal and milk, yogurt, muffins, bagels, and fresh fruit along with some nice hot items added to round it out. We enjoyed grits and hot biscuits both mornings, with corned beef hash one morning and sausage gravy the next. For a fun and relaxing time, go spend a couple nights in the Great Smokies with Terry, Nancy, Tom and Jan. They will make you feel right at home.

Booked a night here when we were visiting in Maggie Valley for a bike rally. Terry , Nancy and staff were so friendly and kind. Made us feel very welcomed. Continental breakfast was good, but would have enjoyed having my coffee in a mug rather than a styrafoam cup. Location is beautiful, however is sitting right in the middle of a residential location.

We stayed at the Grandview Lodge for two nights. Their service was wonderful - available when needed and happy to answer questions, but gave us privacy, too. The first night there was a lovely band playing downstairs in the restaurant. Good breakfast, comfortable room, very nice area to visit.

We stayed only one night because of our travel schedule. We arrived around 7 PM and the owner wasn't able to be there, but left the front door open, a note on the desk, and the key to our room. That itself made us feel at home and welcome. This lodge isn't grand and there isn't a view, but it seems like a quiet place to relax and unwind. The rooms are older, so they don't have the amenities of a more modern place, but ours was clean and comfortable. Breakfast came with plenty of good conversation with other guests and the owners, and the food was unexpectedly good. The other guests we met were repeat visitors, so take that as their recommendation of this as a vacation destination.

Hosts were extremely accomodating and helpful, Rooms spacious and warm.

Fabulous Lodge and very knowledgable innkeepers. They sent us to some great vistas and fabulous restraunts. It was a wonderful stay.

We obtained a second floor room (king sized beds are held)….room had no view at all! It overlooked the enclosed porch dining area and had little to no ventilation. The furniture within the room was very dusty/dirty and the headboard had truly seen better days (missing knobs/dethatched panel). The facility is in need of maintenance. The climate air control was located in a sister suite. Prior to booking I asked if there was ceiling fan in the room…I got a yes (true it was a ceiling ‘vent’, but not a fan). Noise levels maintained until 9:30 PM (overhearing crowds and dog barks with poor entertainment. Paper thin walls and heard everything. Stairs to the room should have been my first sign…just over 2ft wide. Plugged in smoke alarm was on the FLOOR (in a fire I would be long gone by the time this did go off)! The bed was musty; however, firm. The breakfast offered (for a B&B) was nothing more than a cheap bare bones continental breakfast. This was by far the worst B&B I have ever stayed at…it felt more like an old fishing lodge. The overall luxury projected within the photos from their website was just not there…Dinning area smelled of smoke and a dog barking at every move. After one night…we checked out. Locals did advise that there were many other 'true' B&B's.

Fantastic place to stay, nothing over the top but a very nice place to stay with fantastic amenities.

We enjoyed our recent weekend at Grandview Lodge. The owners and staff were so very kind and hospitable! The room was clean and well-kept, and the lodge and dining area were beautiful! The only thing we were slightly disappointed in were the breakfasts - they were filling and sufficient, but not the usual amazing spread that bed and breakfasts usually provide, with a few details lacking. But we would certainly return and recommend the B and B to others!

Throughly enjoyed the atmosphere, the owner and the chef, they made it very enjoyable.

Had a great time and the staff was wonderful. Very knowledgable about the area and helped us find the things that we really wanted to do. The food was AMAZING and different each of our three days!

The Grandview Lodge is an awesome place to stay for the rates this time of year, $80 we paid. It's a small lodge/B&B and they make you feel right at home. Great for couples, good people. They included a sunday brunch with our saturday night stay, normally 14.99 a person. The food was more than excellent.

My sister and I took my mother and her sister to celebrate their 80th and 83rd birthdays. The inn owners and staff went out of their way to make our stay there fabulous! They treated us like royalty. It made for a stay we will never forget!

What a shame, At first glance our room had a nice country charm and was very clean. Unfortunately the walls are paper thin and the person on the other side of the wall snored loudly and all night long. It really was as if the person was in bed with me. In addition the room was very cold and there is no thermostat to control temp. One extra blanket for two beds did not help much. Overall, not very restful.

Stayed over for a family weekend at WCU...it was a nice retreat. We enjoyed our stay and enjoyed the sunday breakfast.

Grandview Lodge is a great place for bringing a dog. There was a separate entrance and lots of space outside to walk.

Enjoyed the stay. Everyone was helpful and informative about the area. Looking forward to returning there soon!

They treated us like family and made our stay very enjoyable.

Location was close to the lovely town of Waynesville and close to the Blue Ridge Parkway, which was great for our itinerary. Breakfast was very good and the host was very cordial. We kind of expected our room to be cleaned and maybe clean towels provided, which didn't happen although we only stayed two nights. Nice porch/dining area with sodas and ice for an afternoon break. Our room was spacious, but dark and rather dinghy. But, it is an old house/lodge.

When we arrived at the Grandview Lodge we were surprised to find out that we had our choice of rooms to stay in, we had originally chosen a room upstairs, but our hosts graciously made available an even nicer suite downstairs which was just perfect because my wife was in a walking boot and did not have to climb any stairs. Our hosts made us feel right at home and we especially loved the treat of having our photo taken after breakfast. This was our first wedding anniversary and we could not have been more pleased with the exceptional service and hospitality the owners at the grandview lodge extended to us. I would definitely encourage anyone planning a trip to Waynesville, NC and looking for a great value for your money to seriously consider a stay at the Grandview lodge.

Decided to stay unexpectedly, so called spur of the moment. A wonderful surprise. Terry and Nancy were excellent hosts, and as it happened there was a local charity event going on when I arrived...so not only was the room inviting and comfy, and the breakfast yummy, there was entertainment in the evening as well. I will definitely return!

I was in the area for a business session and with the Grandview being outside the town and with the country setting it was very easy to relax after a stressful day of business. The owners/operators were very friendly and the home-cooked breakfast started my day off great (at least the one day I got to actually enjoy the breakfast). I will and would highly recommend Grandview Lodge to anyone that asks. I truly enjoyed my stay, the facility and the people.

Loved my stay here! Terry and Nancy were so nice. As soon as you arrive, you are greated with a glass of wine and a big smile! I'll go back here anytime.

The owners of the Grandview Lodge have made the comfort of their guests their number one priority! The Lodge has an inviting ambiance and charm which are only outdone by the friendliness and warmth of the owners and their gourmet chef! The Sunday Brunch has a delicious menu made even more special by the fabulous pianist/singer/songwriter, Steve Whiddon, "The Piano Man''! Whether you are looking for a romantic getaway, or family get together, The Grandview Lodge would be my first choice! Theresa Holloran

This is a really great place to stay off the beaten path, where great service and friendly people still exist! Our room was clean with beautiful decor, but what made our stay the BEST was our innkeepers made us feel right at home. They even let our daughter, who wants to become a professional pastry chef, help with the food! The friendly atmosphere and wonderful staff made us feel our vacation was up too soon! Can't wait to go back!

I chose the Grandview Lodge after sifting through other B&B reviews trying to find a comfortable, safe, home-like place to stay on my way through North Carolina. I met Terry and Nancy the proprietors of the lodge on my first night there. They were outstanding! The surprise for me was visiting Waynesville, North Carolina and finding out that I needed to come back! I enjoyed 2 nights at the Lodge and was pleasantly surprised, extremely happy with the value and was able to explore the nearby Cataloochee Valley which was nearby. What a great stay!!!

It was the first time my mom and I had stayed at a b&b. Terry and Nancy were very sweet and very helpful. The sunday buffet was amazing. Nancy is a very talented chef! We will be returning this fall!

Not a good visit for out of season. Cabin always feals cold. Coffee grounds in coffee maker from prior guest. Hot water turned off to bathroom sink. Cabin is beautifull and well decorated and could have been a great stay. The high cost left a sour taste and breakfast was not available until 9 AM so we had to miss it so rating food was not possible. Some of the ammenities stated on the web site are overstated.

Me and my boyfriend had an amazing 3 days in Grandview! Terry and Nancy were very helpful. Breakfast was the best I had ever tried! Thank you so much for everything. Kamila and Diego.

The private setting with intimate seating at meals including an extraordinary view will always be a weekend to remember for two friends and I.

Budget style b and b which was very suitable for our needs for one night. I would think it will be great in the summer. The owners are very welcoming and if you arrive late a glass of wine was waiting.

We had a great stay at the Grandview Lodge in October 2010. We travelled with our kids and parents. It was great to find a B&B with 2 double beds in room so that we could have our young kids in the room with us. The rooms were nice and clean and tastefully decorated. The innkeepers were open and welcoming and they gave us some great tips on places to visit. We had a good time chatting with the innkeepers and the other guests in the dining room in the mornings. There was also a nice lounge with a fireplace - my son spotted a chess set in the lounge so he kept dragging my husband and I into the lounge to play chess.

We spent a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend at the Grandview Lodge in Waynesville, NC. Terry and Nancy made us feel at home. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the Thanksgiving dinner was outstanding.

Terry and Nancy were lovely and made our stay an extremely enjoyable one. Would highly recommend their Inn

We have visited Waynesville every fall since 1993. Over those years we have visited several different lodging facilities. Without a doubt, this was our finest visit ever! Grandview Lodge is wonderful!! Courtesy and efficiency of staff was outstanding. Accomodations and food was equally outstanding. We immediately made our reservations for next year. We feel we made some new friends with Terry, Nancy and Joe. Simply cannot say enough good about The Grandview Lodge! Bruce & Jeanne Campbell

The food was great and the owners and stay are very friendly and helpful.

Our room was beside a couple with two teenager girls and could hear them talking.. since i was sincerely trying to have a relaxing weekend trying to recover from the last year of stress i decided to ask to be moved since i knew the place was not booked up and the owner was more than helpful which i was thankful for. The only thing that could be approved on is the shower heads.. they are dated and with my husband being 6ft he had to bend over somewhat. If you are tall dont stay in the General Wayne room as the door is right at the toilet. The Birds Nest is great.. is right near the entrance to the main building and beside the linen room so for sure do not have to worry about hearing anyone or thing. On Sunday part of our breakfast was oatmeal so if you dont like oatmeal make sure to tell them so you dont suffer the awkwardness we did when since we hate oatmeal.

nice rooms, quiet atmosphere, pleasant service. View is restricted by homes very close to inn, but neighborhood was not noisy.

We chose Grandview because we could take our small dog. We were pleased with everything and Joe, our host, was very attentive to our every need. He really worked hard to get the breakfast out and it was very good. We were quite surprised by the number of artisans and craftspeople represented in the shops in historic Waynesville. We will recommend both the Grandview and the town to our friends.

The Grandview Lodge was great, but we won't be coming back. This was a great value and the breakfast was delicious, but it felt a little like we were in a camp counselors cabin at a summer camp. The room was very humid & sticky. For the value it is great, but it's just not really our style.

Terry and Nancy, thank you for our wonderful stay! I called two days in advance to reserve a room in Terry and Nancy's 75-year-old B & B outside Asheville/Waynesville. Terry greeted us with a glass of wine and a wonderful conversation which lasted almost 2 hours. He grew up just down the street, and showers the B & B with the kind of love you'd expect from a local. He and his wife, Nancy, spend the busy season preparing delicious breakfast (we had bananas foster french toast) and genuinely enjoying their work and guests. The room was a great value (~$75 with taxes) and had a comfortable bed, hot shower, and a lovely view of the mountains over Waynesville. Go visit the Grandview Lodge!

Me, my girlfriend and our dog stay here for Valentine's Day weekend...we had a good time...despite the fact that it snowed while we were driving up and when we got there we wanted to go out and do stuff but we didn't want to be out driving around so we stayed in turned the heat all the way up and cuddle in the king sized bed...it was great we had a wonderful weekend Terry was wonderful....he was a great host and we had all of our needs meet. This place was affordable, and cozy...I will go back during the summer to be able to enjoy the property, the wonderful view of the mountains and all the other things they have to offer....two thumbs up Terry and Nancy!!

From the minute we were greeted by Terry to the morning we left, we felt like we were home. The area that they are located is beautiful and peaceful. We truly needed a getaway during our visit and we were able to do just that. The breakfast that Nancy made us each morning were delicious, what a way to start your day! We would highly recommend them to all of our family and friends. Thank you again for a memorable stay Terry and Nancy!

Attentive host, great food for breakfast, wonderful view; I rate Grandview Lodge at the very top!

What a historic inn! It's the hospitality and good -- no, great food that sets the mood with the view and quietness that's seductive.

We had planned a stay in July, 2009 but had to cancel. Mr. Ferguson was very nice and accomodated our situation most graciously. I would have to say that you can not go wrong with such nice folks.

Great facility, great service.

We had such a wonderful time at the Grandview Lodge over New Years Eve and New Years Day. The food was definitely 5-star. And the room we stayed in, The Ferguson, was so beautiful and very comfortable. The innkeepers were wonderful hosts and we will surely come back .Highly recommened!!

I loved visiting the enchanting Grandview Lodge in Waynesville, NC. The area is beautiful and the rooms cozy and comfortable. The Fergusons are the perfect hosts - friendly and helpful. The food is outstanding - rivals any 5 star restaurant!! Marian I found the location easily and enjoyed the many varied things there was to do in the area. I hightly recommend a stay at the Grandview...you won't be disappointed.

We celebrated New Years Eve at the Grandview Lodge. We stayed in the Wiliam Ferguson suite, and were very impressed. The dinner was superb, and ranked as a 5 star! Terry and Nancy Ferguson are wonderful innkeepers, and make sure that you are well taken care of during the stay. We just loved the area and the views were truly "grand" We plan to return.
