    Home Away from Home

    April 06, 2013

    The little things were the delight--he unexpected nicities. Pillow tops on the bed, an old fashioned tub for soaking, fresh coffee and tea and cookies whenever you wanted them, earplugs if you needed them, hosts who really visited with you, a fabulous full gourmet breakfast, and a lovely wine and cheese reception! Situated close enough to walk to downtown Hendersonville, the Inn is the perfect starting point for local color, and that in itself rates 5 stars! And fabulous shopping would take a whole review by itself!!!

    A wonderful weekend

    March 29, 2013

    Our first impression was how pretty the Inn was and well maintained. We were greeted immediately by the innkeepers. Our room was lovely and everything was perfect in our room. We enjoyed the social hour visiting with the other guests and the innkeepers while drinking great wine with fruit and cheese. The breakfast was awesome, interesting and healthy meu choice. The servers were very professional, polite and efficient. Our weekend was very relaxing and stress free. We also enjoyed the restaurant package and our meal at the Never Blue. We will come back again soon.
