This is what I wrote in the journal at the Inn:May 17-20, 2012 World travelers we're not, but we do know what we appreciate & we surely found it here. Peace, beauty, caring, kindness, fun, comfort, great service, fun conversations, great ideas of things to see & do, privacy, helpfulness, a sense of "family and home" , amazing breakfasts, great stories/history,humor, immaculate,room,smiles,a great sense of feeling welcomed....the list could be endless ~ our stay was perfect. Thank You! We'll surely be back and will also recommend Brookside Mountain Mist Inn to anyone looking for an experience they'll cherish forever! We wish you both the VERY best - you both gave of yourselves over & above our expectations and deserve the same in return. Dan and Valerie Cary , NC

These ladies sure know that they are doing!!!! My husband and I stayed three nights with them and enjoyed every minute of it! The entire house including the grounds are in pristine condition! The food is outstanding and having a key lime martini is a must! My husband and I will be returning to this wonderful B&B next month. Looking forward to another wonderful and relaxing stay at the Brookside Mountain Mist Inn!!!

Brookside Mountain Mist Inn surpassed all of my expectations. It was the perfect balance of privacy and socializing. Our room (Hickory Hills) was beautiful, clean, and spacious. I slept the best three nights of my life and didn't want to leave! Dina's three-course breakfasts were incredible, especially her swiss parfait, tropical fruit sorbet, and sweet potato pancakes. I was a little apprehensive to stay in a B&B, but now I don't know how I will ever go back to staying in a regular hotel room or another B&B. I will always compare my future stays to my time at Brookside. It was everything I could have hoped for and so much more!

Had a wonderful stay -- Dina and Carolyn were the perfect hostesses. Breakfast was always a wonderful, tasty start to the day. Room is very nicely appointed and attractively decorated with plenty of space leftover to unpack. After our busy days out sightseeing, hiking or meandering it was so nice to come back to such a beautiful B&B to unwind with some wine, a porch, a rocking chair and the beautiful landscape. We are busy coordinating schedules and making plans to return soon.

We stayed for three nights and it was our first experience at a B&B. Our experience was nothing short of amazing! Dina and Carolyn were nothing less than the best hostesses. Their sense of humor and energetic personalities were infectious. Rooms were cleaned daily with fresh towels, bed made, and more. So nice to come back to after our daily adventures in Asheville. The breakfasts were something out of dream. DELICIOUS! We are planning many more trips with family and friends to stay at Brookside Mountain Mist Inn! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

My stay was for 3 nights in April, 2012. Brookside Mountain Mist was everything you would want in a B & B. The rooms were comfortable and well appointed, as was the very modern bathroom. You didn't have to hunt aroud looking for room to put your things. The location was excellent. It's just a couple of minute to everything you would want in Waynesville, and convenient to the Blueridge Parkway, Asheville, and some great hiking trails and waterfalls. The innkeepers are warm, efficient and very helpful in making suggestions and in meeting your needs. Best of all is the fabulous mountain view from the rear patio you could just sit there for days and be happy..

My husband and I stayed at Brookside Mountain Mist Inn for our 1st wedding anniversary. We are typically beach people, but wanted to experience something different. Dina & Carolyn made us feel right at home! Dina's breakfast each morning was such a great start to our day. We really enjoyed our "in room" breakfasts, served by Carolyn. The turn-down service each night was such a nice touch. We highly recommend the couple's massage! Great place, great food & wonderful hospitality. We definitely plan to visit again!

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely get away in the mountains. Carolyn and Dina were great hosts, the accomodations very nice, the breakfasts superb and the overall experience totally relaxing.

My husband and I went to stay at the inn earlier this month and could not have been more pleased with everything. Carolyn and Dina, the innkeepers, were beyond helpful and always has a quick joke to add too! We loved coming back to have a mid-day snack provided. The room was very comfortable and all amenities were amazing. The cleanliness of the inn was impeccable, without smelling like cleaning supplies! The breakfast that they made was delicious and always different. (We stayed for 4 days). We opted to have the breakfast in the room the first morning, and additional $15, and it was well worth it! If we go back to NC to visit we will definitely stay there! I had been looking for a vacation site for us while my husband was over seas and this turned out to be the best complete bang for the buck. The value is unbeatable for the quaint, small, charming home that offers more than the normal. A highly recommended vacation spot for a couple, or a get-away for a couple of gal pals. Carolyn and Dina will not disappoint!

Exceptional experience. Carolyn and Dina (innkeepers) anticipate almost every need before you realize there is a need. Superb breakfasts and afternoon snacks that challenge top chefs. Service beyond expectations while doing everything behind the scene. Whether it's reading a book on the deck or relaxing in the hammock while taking in the view of the mountains. This is the place to truly "get away".

A great Bed & Breakfast nestled in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains and just a few minutes from Asheville and the Biltmore. Carolyn & Dina are great and do whatever is possible to make your stay amazing! My wife and I have stayed at numerous B&B, and Brookside is by far the best one we've stayed at. Accommodations were spectacular and the food is AMAZING! Would recommend it to tons of people!

What a fabulous bed and breakfast! We stayed three nights and we wanted to stay three more if we could! DIna and Carolyn are amazing innkeepers and wonderful hostesses! THe place is so clean, warm and inviting and the bed was so comfy! We got to experience amazing massages and gourmet breakfast each morning was divine. The two ladies have a gem going and cant wait to go back to do it all over again!

We had a wonderfully relaxing 3-night stay at Brookside Mountain Mist Inn. Everything about our stay exceeded our expectations! The entire inn was immaculately clean. The room was spacious and comfortable. Carolyn and Dina were amazing hostesses - so friendly and very helpful. The breakfast each morning was absolutely delicioius, and more food that we could eat! We are already looking forward to our next trip to Brookside Mountain Mist Inn.

We stayed at the Brookside Mountain Mist Inn 02/2012 and was pleasantly surprised with the attention and care they provided. It was my first time to stay at a B&B so was not sure what to expect. Their friendliness was unmatchable and they made sure you enjoyed your stay. Their advice on dining in the area was perfect as every meal was excellent. They serve a breakfast that you will not get at any other location. They are the perfect hosts for a relaxing fun getaway.

We went to Brookside with friends who recommended it highly. It ended up better than we had expected and is probably the best B&B anywhere in the area. We will most certainly come back again. The service was excellent and the food memorable. We highly recommend this B&B to anyone coming to the Waynesville area.

When we booked our weekend at the Brookside Mountain Mist Inn, we were looking for a B&B to enjoy peace, quiet, and amazing views. This is exactly what we got! When we arrived, Carolyn made us feel like family and was so gracious. Between dinner recommendations and Dina's homecooked breakfasts - we couldn't have eaten better. We spent the whole day Sunday just lounging on the back patio, reading by the living room fire, and napping. After dinner, we came back and Carolyn set up the fire pit for us where we drank wine and enjoyed the fresh air. This was the perfect getaway. We had tons of privacy but Carolyn and Dina were always available for anything we could need or want. No complaints, would 100% recommend to anyone, and looking forward to coming back for another long de-stressing weekend. Leita and Bud Nashville, TN

I wanted to take my wife away from our stressfull life for a few days,I found this place and booked the Brookside Mountain View Inn with very few expectations other then a quiet getaway. This is our first B&B stay, Speaking with Carolyn on the phone just days prior, she picked up on what I was trying to accomplish and from the first knock on the door to our check out we were treated like royalty. every detail exceeded any expectation and we will surly return. Dina's breakfast's are the best as well as the homemade snacks everyday. Thank you Dina and Carolyn for making our 49th anniversary so special. Reggie and Kathy from Myrtle Beach SC.

A great B and B very gracious hosts beautiful location quaint town food was very tasty could not have had a more perfect place for a weekend getaway. Lots to do around the area;hiking,waterfalls,shopping,and historical sites.

I was blown away at the plush room and the fact that Carolyn and Dina had remembered to include every little thing that we could possibly need to make our stay comfortable. My husband and I enjoyed ourselves very much. The breakfasts were delicious and in addition to that there was a beautiful view to enjoy while we ate it. We felt immediately "at home" when we arrived.

As always, everything was amazing! Brookside Mountain Mist Inn is THE "IN" place to stay. You will not find better accommodations, hospitality, scenic beauty, breakfast (most awesome cook Ever!) and the greatest prize winning smile will always be there to greet you! Dina and Carolyn go above and beyond to make sure every guest has a truly wonderful stay.

What a truly 'fabulous' experience! This was our first trip to Brookside Mountain Mist Inn, and it will not be our last. Everything was just perfect from the room to the hospitality to those wonderful breakfasts we enjoyed. You ladies are professional beyond words and made us feel so comfortable and welcome. We will return! Dave and Teresa Heflin

The room and service were great, but the food was worth hiring the owner as a personal chef at home. I would recommend this Inn to first time Inn guests, but it will spoil you for other inns. Perfect place for Wedding or other large groups wanting to feel secluded, but in the middle of great area in North Carolina.

pics dont do it justice. we had a great time. wish we had time to just hang with carolyn and dina. they are great hostesses. food was waaaaaaaaaaaay too good, area great, rooms more than you would need,etc. BOOK THIS PLACE linda and ray

My Husband and I found the Brookside Mountain Mist Inn through an internet search. After many hours of sifting through many Inns, hotels and B & B's we decided on this one. What a wonderful decision it was. The Inn is everything it promises and more. The inkeepers/owners have obviously done their homework on running a top quality B & B. The inn is so comfortable and welcoming. It is the cleanest place I have ever stayed in. Such attention to every detail is paid. The breakfast and baked goods are enough on their own but thank goodness they don't stop there. The rooms are a combination of both down home feel and luxary inn. Truly a magical combination. There is so much to do around the area and Caroline and Dina could not have been more helpful. I highly recommend The Brookside Mountain Mist Inn. You will not be disappointed.

We had a great stay at Brookside. Carolyn and Dina are the best hostesses, they make you feel right at home. Breakfast was wonderful and they fully accommodated our dietary needs. The room was wonderful and the outside area is beautiful.

My wife and I stayed in late June for a pre-anniversary get-away. Breakfast is definitely the highlight of the stay. Rooms are spacious for the price and comfortable. Hosts are friendly, readily available and helpful for planning your trip.

In JUne I an my wife stayed at the Inn for our 30th anniversary. Our room was very nice an the chocolate strawberries were delicious. What we loved was the morning and late evenings view form the back porch and out of the bay window. The smoke covered mountains and early sunrise. Thanks for everything Carolyn & Dina!! PS: Watch out for that Squirrel Crossing

We have stayed at Brookside several times, and have enjoyed each visit. There is always something new and improved! It is obvious that the inn is a labor of love for the owners, who go above and beyond to make our stay memorable. We would certainly recommend Brookside without hesitation.

The rooms are comfortable and large, and the breakfasts are to die for. The fact that one of the innkeepers is also a massage therapist is a definite plus! The innkeepers are warm, friendly, and very informative as to activities in the area. This is a wonderful bed and breakfast. I highly recommend it!

We were planning on riding in and around the Maggie Valley area, and just picked a place to hang our hat for a few nights. Having stayed in many B&Bs over the years, we thought we knew what to expect but were we in for a surprise. The weather was lousy, but the B&B, Brookside Mountain Mist Inn, became our home away from home. It was a pleasure to come in and out; felt like our home; Carolyn & dina were great hosts; delicious food; wine; massage; and impecably clean. What could of been a miserable stay and cabin fever became a wonderful mini vacation. We will be back for more...

This was our first experience with a bed and breakfast and it was outstanding!! Carolyn and Dina do an amazing job and made our visit so enjoyable. The rooms are super comfortable and clean, the views are great and the food was amazing. I am not sure we could visit another bed and breakfast other than Brookside. We were so spoiled and we are not sure if anyone can beat this experience. Guy and Kristen (Orlando, FL)

The setting was charming, clean, and refreshing. The only thing better than the setting was the warm, cheerful, and caring service from Dina and Carolyn! We highly recommend a visit. David & Diana, Greensboro NC

Brookside is amazing, The inn is in a quiet cozy location. The grounds are of the highest standard, the rooms are beautiful and very relaxing. The Inn Keepers are very passionate about what they do. The food was amazing! I highly recommend Brookside. Dave & Cindy

Carolyn and Dina were wonderful hosts, helpful with area information, and catering to our every need. The breakfasts and afternoon snacks were outstanding and it was so nice that they were able to make my food gluten free! Awesome!

Carolyn and Dina were exceptional hosts during our recent stay at their beautiful bed and breakfast. The accommodations were impeccable with attention to detail in every way – from the clean and well appointed rooms, the nightly turndown service, the activity closet, their advice on local attractions and dining – and especially the delicious breakfasts that Dina prepared and Carolyn so cheerfully presented. We only wish we could have stayed longer.

We had an incredible stay at the Brookside Mountain Mist Inn. It was rest, relaxation, and good conversation. Our needs were met beyond our expectations and the view from the Inn is beautiful. We can only describe the breakfast as "a true breakfast experience!"

We loved our stay at Brookside Mountain Mist Inn. From arrival to departure, our stay was the BEST! Carolyn & Dina were very welcoming & gracious hosts. The Hickory Hills Room was wonderful! We enjoyed the fireplace & the BIG room. We were impressed with the cleanliness of the whole B&B. The cookies & drinks were great as arrival treats. They had great dinner recommendations. The next morning we were served a wonderful & delicious 3 Course Breakfast! WOW! We would highly recommend this B&B to you. You will feel very pampered & spoiled :)!

We stayed in the Plantation Room and it was amazing! As soon as we arrived we were warmly welcomed and shown everything around the house. The breakfast was incredible and the in room massages were perfect. We will absolutely go back!

We had such a great stay here! We found the inn through bnb.com when our other plans feel thru. Dina was out of town and Carolyn wasn't expecting any guests that night but she welcomed us anyway and took great care of us. The room was perfect and Carolyn made us a wonderful breakfast. We definitely would recommend to anyone and would stay there again.

Stayed at Brookside Mountain Mist Inn for a weekend and we will never stay anywhere else when in the mountains. Carolyn and Dina were wonderful. The rooms were huge and the breakfast were great. Even bought a cookbook! We loved the mountain views from the living room and dining room. We were never more comfortable in a B & B. I would recommend to anyone.

I could not have asked for better accomodations for my bridal party and I as we prepped for my wedding day this past July. Carolyn and Dina exceeded our expectations from the check - in to check - out. Our room was expertly appointed, complete with pre-wedding mimosa's and hors d'oeuvres to ease my nerves and a post-wedding romantic rose petals and chocolate covered strawberries. Breakfast in our room the following morning was phenominal. Thank You Ladies!

We were warmly welcomed by Carolyn and shown the house. Our room was very large with all details taken care of pus more! We had a wonderful breakfast with a great view.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Brookside Mountain Mist Inn. The view from the veranda was fabulous. Dina and Carolyn leave no detail undone. Breakfast is wonderful. We would recommend this B n B to friends and return if our travels take us in that direction in the future.

This was our fifth visit. It is the perfect getaway for us for a few days of fun and relaxation. Carolyn and Dina make everyone feel at home, and it is like coming home whenever we visit. The rooms are spacious and immaculate. The breakfasts are amazing - no need for lunch. The view is lovely. Close to the Blue Ridge Parkway and an easy drive from Atlanta. We always enjoy the shops and restaurants and shops in downtown Waynesville. If you have not found your way to Waynesville and this beautiful B&B, you are missing a wonderful experience.

We have stayed at Brookside three times and have plans to return next fall for an annual reunion with friends. The service and space is perfect for our group . We have enjoyed the opportunity to visit both inside the inn and outdoors in comfort and a bonus of beautiful scenery. There is a variety of seating available both indoors and outdoors. Carolyn and Dina are most helpful with everything from special requests to restaurant suggestions.

Had a wonderful time thanks to Carolyn and Dina! Rooms were spacious and comfortable and the daily treats waiting for us were great. Breakfast was delicious and full of pleasantly surprising recipes. We were delighted with our stay at Brookside, and it made going home to Tokyo just a bit harder to do! Jesse & Youna - Tokyo, Japan

Our stay was wonderful, courteous staff and lovely accomodations....my husband would love to come stay longer when they cooler season hits in. We will definitely be back...i recommend this place highly!! Huntersville, nc Rose

We arrived at checkin time and was greeted by a very friendly and welcoming hostess (Carolyn). We were very impressed with the decor, roominess, ammenities, and outdoor landscaping. It is very convenient to the downtown area (which keeps us returning to this lovely town regularly). We really enjoyed the first class service and afternoon treats. Dina and Carolyn have really perfected the art of catering to a travelers needs and making them feel "part of the family". We do not frequent B&B often but this is one of the few that we would really want to return to visit again. I highly recommend this for your future travel plans. Glenn and Cathy, Hoover, AL

Carolyn and Dina keep us coming back because they go out of their way to make our stays memorable. They include so many things---if they don't have it, we don't need it. Our rooms are luxurious, there's a mini kitchen for our late night snack needs, the three course breakfasts are outstanding and they facilitate guest interaction and conversation. We are pampered patrons.

Outstanding Accommodations. Very friendly and helpful hosts. Wonderful breaksfasts and conversations. We felt like family. Roy and Carol, PA

This is one of the best places we have stayed. It should be a first choice for this area. The food was great and the owners friendly.

What a treat it was to spend two luxurious nights at Brookside Mountain Mist Inn, we absolutely loved staying there. The property is so well appointed, beautiful and just immaculate. I think it is one of the prettiest settings in the area. Carolyn and Dina simply knock themselves out to make sure your visit is perfect, they are the most cordial and attentive hosts I have ever seen.They really bend over backwards to do anything they can to make your time there the best. They were so knowledgeable and helpful with dinner reservations too, both restaurants they guided us to were just what we had in mind.We have stayed at many B&Bs over the years and this is by far one of the finest I have experienced. The breakfast each morning was fantastic, so wonderful we didn"t need to plan on lunch. We will be back in October, wish we had known about this special place sooner. Prepare to be pampered !!!

We enjoyed a couple of days at the Brookside Mountain Mist Inn bed and breakfast. Dina and Carolyn pampered us with delicious breakfasts, yummy snacks and helpful information of things to do in and around Waynesville. We want to go back soon.

This was our second time visiting. As we were driving up, I was like..."this is like visiting family"!....Carolyn and Dina are the best! It was beautiful to see the trees and flowers in bloom. (Our first visit was in February). Looking forward to seeing the leaves change in the Fall! Just a wonderful, relaxing, pampering place to be. Breakfast was amazing as always!! Thanks for a great Mother's Day!! Jamie & Karen

Exceeds expectations would be an understatement. The treatment we received at Brookside Mountain Mist Bed and Breakfast is exactly as advertised on this inn’s comprehensive website. Carolyn “says it straight” in her video. It’s always a pleasure to see that descriptions match reality. Making our reservation over the phone assured us that when visiting the Smoky Mountains, and the Waynesville, North Carolina area, this would be the place to stay. We believe that you are not going to find more cordial hosts than Carolyn and Dina and doubt you’ll be able to match the attention they give you – anywhere. If you are new to staying at Bed and Breakfasts, this one will “set the standard.” If you are an experienced B and B guest, you’ll name Brookside Mountain Mist “Best in Category.” Put Brookside Mountain Mist Bed and Breakfast in Waynesville, NC at the top of your list when heading to North Carolina.

My husband and I truly enjoyed our stay at the Brookside Mountain Mist Inn. The view of the mountains from the patio is beautiful! All the rooms are on the ground floor, so no lugging suitcases up stairs! The daily treats and gourmet breakfast were scrumptious, and our hosts treated us like visiting royalty!

This was the best place I've EVER stayed. I will NEVER stay in a hotel again. Carolyn and Dina are the best host. They were there whenever we needed something and made sure that we knew they did not mind. We will definately be back and I have already referred some of my close friends to stay here when they visit the mountains. Thanks for bringing the spark back into our relationship. I could write for days but I will end with that. I recommend anyone to stay here!!!

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay here. Carolyn and Dina were very friendly and we felt like we knew them for years! The breakfast each morning was wonderful...can't wait for Dina's cookbook to be published, I will be getting several! Our room was the "smallest" in the home but was huge and very comfortable. We loved having some homemade cookies waiting for us in our room when we returned each day.Loved the little closet with the single cup coffee maker and fully stocked frig. The "Rainy Day" closet packed full of videos and games available to all the guests for free! What a great idea! We have already made our reservations for next month when we come back to meet with our builder again.

Truly enjoyed our stay. Room was beautiful. Food was great. Enjoyed the quietness of the area and the beauty of the home and views. Will definitely be back.

This is the "benchmark" for me..... I can't think of anything better that this place can offer. The rooms are fantastic... roomy with completely renovated bathrooms. The breakfast is FANTASTIC.... In fact, Dina is about to come out with a cookbook of recipes that she uses.... I asked for some special dietary requirements and they more than accomodated. What a great place... Go once and you will see what I have seen and go back over and over again.

This was my second time staying at Brookside Mountain Mist Inn and I can't wait till next time! Carolyn and Dina really know how to make thier guests feel at home. We purchased a hiking backpack filled with everything you need for a gourmet lunch, from sandwiches to fruit to dessert, along with wonderful hiking trails and maps. We can't say enough about the view from the back patio. Get a bottle of wine and enjoy the sunset, truly the best way to end a perfect day. Then we have the breakfast, some of the best food we have ever had at a B & B. Everytime we turned around another course was being served. The rooms are not what you would expect from a B & B. They are very large and extremely comfortable, from the brand new bathrooms to the sitting areas by the fireplace you'll never want to leave this haven. No detail is left unattended!

What a weekend! It was our first Christmas together and his parents gave us a Bed and Breakfast.com gift card. We chose The Brookside Mountain Mist because it was a beautiful drive and offered discount packages for the Biltmore Estate in Asheville. The ONLY thing that outshined the view of the Smoky Mountains was the fantastic food. Carolyn and Dina have such a great dynamic, gracious host and gourmet chef! The Hickory Hills room was romantic and beautifully decorated for the holidays. We have decided to return the favor and pick a weekend this summer to invite our parents BACK to Brookside for a family weekend get away! Excellent in every sense of the word, we can't wait to visit again!

Thanks Carolyn and Dina for a great time. A friend recommended you to us and a wonderful recommendation it was. We had a truly relaxing time our three days there and you took first class care of us. Also, the breakfasts were spectacular. You will see us again in the future and also as many of our friends that we can send your way. Jack & Teresa Plant City, Florida

There is nothing that has not been thought of in terms of service and small details. I have rarely had the same level of care at a 5 star hotel. Breakfast is amazing and the rooms beautifully decorated and very comfortable. I slept all through the night which is rare when I am not at home.

This lovely, relaxing B&B was just what we needed to recharge our batteries. The owners Carolyn and Dina go above and beyond to create an inviting and relaxing stay. My husband and I felt positively pampered with the luxurious room (we stayed in the Plantation Room), lovely three-course breakfasts, daily afternoon snacks and nightly chocolates on our pillows. The inn is peaceful with a beautiful waterfall in the garden and a view of the mountains. We also enjoyed Waynesville tremendously. Carolyn and Dina made excellent recommendations for restaurants, stores and coffee shops, as well as nearby trails for day hikes. We were charmed by the many art galleries on Main Street and at the variety of boutique shops for unique gifts. After exploring the town and surrounding mountains, what a joy it was to return to this quiet oasis for a hot bath and to relax in front of the fireplace. We heartily recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to rejuvenate in a peaceful mountain setting.

The photo does not show the typical B&B so we didn't know what to expect upon arrival; however, we were very pleasantly surprised by the warm welcome, service and accomodations. We were there to celebrate our anniversary and found a "Happy Anniversary" balloon in our room to greet us along with chocolates on the bed. Carolyn and Dina helped us with recommendations and reservations at local restaurants where we had delicious dinners. Our breakfasts at the inn were delicious. Dina is an amazing chef. And what can I say about the family style Thanksgiving dinner other than amazing. We had a delightful time and would highly recommend Brookside Mountain Mist Inn.

We loved our stay at the inn. The service and atmosphere were wonderful. The inn was very clean and the view of the mountains in the back yard were wonderful. The city of Waynesville is very quaint and friendly as well. There is a lot of things to do in and around the city.

This was our first experience at a bed and breakfast, and Carolyn and Dina have set the bar extremely high. The accomodations were both spotless and comfortable. The home/our room were very tastefully decorated, and the grounds were immaculate. The breakfasts were absolutely wonderful. Dina is a magician in the kitchen, and we definitely did not leave hungry. In fact, we didn't eat lunch either day of our stay. Carolyn's suggestions for dining and activities were just what we were looking for. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel so welcome, and we wanted for nothing during our stay. It was a joy to get to know Dina and Carolyn (they were always helpful but never intrusive) and the other guests. We highly recommend this inn, and we certainly hope to return. Don & Wendy

We have traveled the world from prinitive Africa to the castles of Europe. Brookside Mountain Mist Inn can match the best of any with its spaciousness, comfort, beauty and attentiveness. This was our second stay and will become a 'regular' in out future travels. From California

This is our 3rd stay at this inn and it is one of the very best. I cannot say enough about Dina and Carolyn, their spotless inn and the beautiful quaint town on Waynesville. You will not be disappointed if you book a room at this wonderful inn.

The service was excellent. All of our requests were handled with speed and graciousness. The breakfast each morning was outstanding.

Our five day stay was nothing but perfect...Carolyn and Dina are gracious and accomodating innkeepers, the three course breakfasts are superb and beautifully presented, (no lunch needed!) and the inn is spacious and spotless. Every amenity is provided, from flat screen TV's, mini frig, wireless, spa robes, turn down service, homemade treats; indoor and outdoor common seating provides the perfect setting to enjoy the mountains. Rooms are very spacious and the beds comfy. You can do a lot. You can do nothing! Shopping in Waynesville is a treat with lots of local art and pottery available. Good restaurants. Great golf.

Dina and Carolyn, You both deserve five stars. We enjoyed our stay from the moment we arrived. (with the roses and chocolate covered strawberries) The room was beautiful. On Friday of our arrival, we were spoiled with a wine social with the othe guests staying at the Inn, the wine was fantastic and the egg rolls to die for. The next morning we were treated to the most delicious pumpkin pancakes (and that was just Saturday morning). We spent our day out and when we returned we ordered wine and it was delived to the room soon after arriving back. We ate dinner at the Cork and Clever located across the street and they also had great food. Thanks for the recipes you emailed, can't wait to try them myself.

We were welcomed with open arms and spoiled rotten every minute of our stay. Rooms was spotless and food was "mouth-waterin" good! Already making plans for another stay. Give it a try. You won't be sorry!

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at Brookside. Carolyn and Dina are great hosts. The food was excellent and the inn is very clean and quite. We stayed 2 nights and would have loved to stay longer but life calls again. It is well worth the money. Hope to stay there again next year.

This was our third visit. It was like "coming home". Carolyn and Dina are wonderful, the inn is beautiful and relaxing, and the food is delicious. A perfect get away in a lovely setting.

We just completed our fourth stay at Brookside Mountain Mist Inn. It feels like our home away from home in the mountains. The innkeepers have thought of everything. We particularly enjoyed the "social hour" meeting with the other guests over wine and hors d'oeuvres. All of the renovated bathrooms are lovely. The breakfasts were five-star quality, served in three courses. The inn boasts a 100% sanitation rating. The patio is so inviting. We enjoyed the mountain view, reading, and talking with the other guests. We can't wait to go back in October when the leaves are turning. B and D from Raleigh

This was our first stay at a B&B and it was much better than expected. Rooms were comfortable, food was fantastic, and owners catered to our every need.

Found a nice/quiet B&B in Waynesville with service second to none. Conveniently located next door to Waynesville CC. Be sure to stay for the outstanding breakfast which are super! This is the only place to stay when in Waynesville NC.

Have stayed at many B&Bs over the years but this was the best. Innkeepers were totally attuned to guests' wishes and needs. Setting was beautiful, rooms spacious, well appointed, and extremely comfortable. Breakfast excellent and more than enough to eat until dinnertime. Will definitely try to go back.

From the moment we got to Carolyn and Dina's B&B until the minute we left, we were treated like royalty. We will (if there's a vacancy) stay there from now on when we visit the Waynesville/Maggie Valley area. As you can see we highly, highly recommend Brookside Mountain Mist Inn. Marty and Lynne Martin

We had the best time at Brookside. Dina & Carolyn were very gracious and accomodating hosts, doing all they could to make our stay enjoyable. The rooms were great - beautiful and clean. Dina's incredible breakfasts were an extra bonus to an already wonderful retreat! Thanks so much!

If you want to be pampered and catered to, Brookside Mountain Mist Inn is the place to go. We went up for our 1st anniversary and stayed 3 nights. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, the showers are extra large, the house is impeccable, breakfast is delicious, and Carolyn and Dina are wonderful host. They are very attentive to their guests and they are knowledgeable about the area. Every place they recommended for dinner was outstanding. The grounds are absolutely beautiful. We loved sitting out on the back porch listening to the babbling waterfall and watching the birds. We will definitely be back.

MY FRIEND AND I HAD A WONDERFUL TIME AT BROOKSIDE MOUNTAIN MIST INN. IT WAS VERY INVITING, THE FOOD WAS WONDERFUL AND THE INNKEEPERS, CAROLYN AND DINA, WERE VERY FRIENDLY, KNOWLEDGABLE ABOUT THE AREA. THEY MADE US FEEL WELCOME. I CAN'T WAIT TO GO BACK.

What a great place to spend our anniversary. Very romantic setting with beautiful views of the mountain and even a babbling brook. Carolyn and Dina did a wonderful job of making us feel special and pampered. The food was out of this world and we especially loved the afternoon treats. Will definately be on our list of places to visit again and will have golf clubs next time.

While on a solo business/pleasure motorcycle trip thru Tennesse, Virginia, and North Carolina I found that I would end up in the Maggie Valley region for the evening - so I did the obvious thing in today's world, I Googled "B&B, motorcycle, and NC" and up popped Brookside at the top of the list. After looking over the well organized and informative website, I sent an email detailing my itinerary and specifics. Being a bit sore after days on the road (I'm 61 BTW), I also inquired about a massage to work out a few kinks. Carolyn replied very promply with a plan so well suited for me all I could say is, "I'm sold". She also kept up with my schedule the next day to insure that the massage therapist (which turned out to be Dina) would be available when I arrived. I felt spoiled before I even arrived. I must tell every motorcyclist and indeed every traveller how great it is to get an excellent massage right after arrival. Dina is an excellent therapist and after the massage and a plate of her delicious cake, I was hooked for life. The house was comfortable, clean to the extreme, snacks and drinks were plentiful, and of course I had a garage to put my bike in. The next morning Dina cooked a breakfast to die for and Carolyn printed up some maps for me to find my way to good mountain motorcycle roads. There is no doubt in my mind that I will go back - rarely have I felt so welcome in any place I have stayed.

WOW! WHAT A WONDERFUL PLACE TO STAY. YOU ARE MADE TO FEEL AT HOME WHEN YOU WALK IN THE DOOR. CAROLYN AND DINA ARE WONDERFUL HOSTESSES. EVERYTHING IS SPOTLESS AND EMACULATE AND PEOPLE FRIENDLY. TO SIT ON THE BACK PATIO AND WATCH THE BIRDS AND LISTEN TO THE SOUND OF NATURE IS A FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE. YOU NEVER WANT TO LEAVE. THE FOOD IS OUT OF THIS WORLD. IT IS JUST WONDERFUL. YOU WILL NOT WANT LUNCH AFTER THIS MEAL. THE SOCIAL TIME WITH THE OWNERS AND THE OTHER GUESTS IS GREAT. ALL I CAN SAY THIS PLACE IS GR-R-R-R-EAT. YOU WILL WANT TO GO BACK. WE PLAN TO.

Dina and Carolyn do a great job there. The Inn is great, food is outstanding and the massages put you in heaven. I strongly recommand this Inn for couples loking for a week-end gateaway. Make sure to try the belgian waffles they are delicious !!!

Five Stars doesn't even start to describe Brookside. The decor, food, and attention to detail is wonderful.

This was one of the most pleasant experiences we have had at a Bed & Breakfast or an upscale hotel. We plan other visits and hope we can stay here. When word gets out about this place, I am afraid they will be fully booked most of the time.

When I travel with my wife of 45 yrs (the world's most demanding traveler) I worry that maybe I have picked the wrong B&B. When we walked in the front door and were met by Carolyn I knew I had picked right. The two young ladies that own and operate the BMMI, Carolyn and Dina, made your stay a wonderful experience right from the beginning. Before you unpack your car they show you around the Inn so that you know where everything is and what to expect during your stay. They show you your room and if you are satisfied they hand you the key to the room and the front door and tell you that their home is yours. After we unpacked we had wonderful hors d'oeuvres and a great wine from their cellar. They were able to direct us to a great restaurant that was made from 7 cabins from the mid-1800s and reassembled into a quaint setting where we had an outstanding meal. When we got back to the inn our bed was turned down and chocolates were on the pillows. If you are going for a romantic evening, they can have flowers, strawberries dipped in chocolate and champagne waiting for your arrival. If you are a golfer, they can make tee-times. Horseback riding? No problem. The super-hostesses can do it all. Come the morning and you really get to see them shine. A gourmet breakfast to die for with Dina and Carolyn acting as cook, server and hostess all in one. My wife was so impressed and enjoyed herself so much that there were hugs all around and she bought two bottles of wine that she had never had before but loved it. I even got a kiss from her and a thank you. Brookside Mountain Mist Inn will exceed all of your expectations

Lovely grounds, beautiful rooms throughout, relaxing patio with wine and cheese, fabulous breakfast, and two gracious ladies who make you feel at home when you enter the front door--a perfect spot from which to enjoy Waynesville. Thanks Carolyn and Dina. We look forward to a return visit!

Impressed with the cleanliness and warmth and multiple extras to make us feel 'at home'. The scenery is beautiful. The room was quiet and welcoming - loved the decorating. Will definitely return. Jeanne

We don't usually stay in B&Bs but this one was exceptional. We enjoyed our stay there and found our hosts to be very attentive to all our needs. The decor was upscale and the room was fabulous. Breakfasts were a feast, beautifully presented and delicious. We really enjoyed our time there.

Whatever you do, make sure you stay here! My husband and I had the most wonderful time at the Inn - it was the perfect blend of the warmth, coziness and hospitality of a B&B with the amenities of a hotel. Our room was lovely and the breakfast was beyond belief (not to mention the view). After the 3-course gourmet breakfast, lunch was totally not necessary. Plus, we just enjoyed chatting with the owners and fellow guests. The nightly bag of popcorn was fun, and the hammock was dreamy. This was by far the best B&B experience I've ever had! (In short, we loved this place :) --Sheri & Keith

We enjoyed our stay very much. It was a beautiful inn with great scenery. Out keeper met out every need without overbearing us. Our meals were outstanding.

My wife and I had received a gift certificate from our daughter last Christmas. We decided to ude it at the last minute and picked the Brookside Mountain Mist Inn because of it's location to the Smokie Mtns. This was my first time at a bed and breakfast. I was completely impressed with the house and the food and ths atmosphere , I will go back just to enjoy the service and tranquility of the experience. I would recommend this to anybody wanting a relaxing quaint getway. Carolyn and Dina are the owners and the hired help, and they do it great. Thanks, Jim and Cheryl

Carolyn and Dina are in the ascendancy of their innkeeping experience. They have created a delightful and totally pleasant environment for the weary traveler. They are embracing without being excessive. Tney know the area very well and were able to give us some good ideas, including on where to buy gas during the post-Hurricane Ike shortage in the area. And their breakfasts? We skipped lunch they were so good and filling. Location is also nice, just out of town so quiet but only afew minutes away. We know where we'll stay next time we're in the Waynesville area.

The perfect mix of antique grace and modern perks! We were made to feel at home immediately & look forward to returning.

Brookside Mountain Mist has it all - personable hostess who go all out to make your stay a memorable one, a beautiful view of the mountains, a lovely patio from which to view the view, very comfortable and well appointed rooms, and delicious and ample breakfasts.

Our hostesses were wonderful as were the room, food and view. I would not hesitate to recommend this B&B. We stayed 2 nights here & then went to a 4 star B&B in Asheville & it was unanimous that we preferred Brookside over the Asheville Inn.

My husband and I stayed at Brookside Mountain Mist Inn for a vacation get away. We were so thrilled to find this wonderful inn. Carolyn and Dina spoiled us rotten. The views from the back patio of the mountains were breathtaking. We loved Waynesville, it's so closeto Asheville without the traffic. The inn is so close to the parkway it made it very convenient to get anywhere. Setlla and Mark

This B&B is a very comfortable, hospitable and clean place to enjoy. The hosts are warm and friendly, the rooms are large with fireplaces, T.V.’s and sitting areas. The breakfasts are a true dining experience. We highly recommend.

My husband and I LOVED the place. Ken and Mary are the nicest people.Ken is very informative on where to go and how to get there.The home smells so fresh and is very clean.The breakfast was good and loads of it,but the coffee WOW I could not get enough!WE will be back again.VERY CHARMING

This is one fantastic home. Large spacious rooms. The hosts are marvelous. Excellent large breakfast. I give them 5 stars out of 5! SUPER!

We have made our reservations for the 2nd year at this wonderful inn. The owners are amazing and love what they are doing and it shows. Everything was perfect and can't wait to return.

Having never been to Waynesville for nearly 10 years, and not having stayed in a B & B there, both my husband and I were absolutely delighted with this one! We couldn't believe how easy it was to reach, how convenient to the town and other areas of interest, and how quiet it was at night. Thoroughly enjoyed the birds each morning, the scrumptious breakfasts, and the friendliness of our host and hostess. :-) Highly recommended and we'll return if we are ever in the area again!

My family (Mom, Dad, 13 year old son, and 9 year old daughter) SO enjoyed our 4 night stay! The room was wonderful, the breakfasts to die for (will my cooking ever measure up again?!), the view from the back porch was so relaxing...complete with many varieties of birds, rabbits, squirrils, and a friendly white cat ready for affection! Ken and Mary were so informative about the area's activities and eating establishments...they made us feel like we were home! We will definitely be returning! Thank you Ken, Mary, and the Brookside Mountain Mist Inn for a wonderful family vacation sure to be in ours and our children's memories for a lifetime!

Mary and Ken will do e/t possible for you to enjoy your stay. The rooms are immaculate and the breakfast awesome. If you stay anywhere in this area, it should be with them.

We were warmly welcomed and felt at home immediately. Our room was very relaxing and the entire home had a very comfortable feel. We enjoyed the back patio in the morning where birds serenaded us. Breakfast was delicious and our hosts very congenial. They know the area well and are able to offer suggestions for area activities.
