This stunning crimson room is located at the back of the property and features windows on two sides giving guests a treetops view of the forest and mountains. Private bath and a carved antique four-poster bed make this room a favorite.
Located on the second floor, the Green Room is the largest guest room at the inn. A vintage settee and chair provide comfortable seating in these sizable accommodations, with antique four poster bed and extra large bathroom.
The Rose Room is classic bed and breakfast. This many windowed suite has an ornate four-poster bed, antique vanity, fireplace and private bath.

4.0 out of 5Safe in the Hills
June 30, 2011
Three of us were fortunate to spend one night in this "elegant lady" in the Turret suite after a long day touring the Biltmore. We were greeted by Dale and were told of their favorite place to have pizza--a very good recommendation. There were rumors of bad storms that night; but we were safe in the hills. Many near were not so fortunate. In the morning we relaxed on the porch enjoying the peace and beauty with coffee or tea before our delicious breakfast. We had to leave too soon as we had more adventures ahead. Thanks Dale and Donna for all the conversation, being great hosts, and making us feel welcome in your home. A great place to go back to sometime.

December 15, 2010
Located in the historic section of Saluda our 5 night stay at the Oaks was a welcomed respite. We stayed in the Green Room; the bed was so comfy, the linens were crispfully clean. We even had a spacious bathroom equipped with Egyptian Cotton bath sheets. Our hosts, Dale and Donna were accommodating in every way. They are very knowledgable in all things Saluda. The hearty gourmet breakfasts were presented beautifully and with great care. We rate our Oaks experience A++++++.
4.6 out of 5Labor Day Weekend at The Oaks
September 07, 2010
My husband surprised me with a weekend at The Oaks in Saluda. What a delightfully charming place. Its beauty was warm and inviting as well as the hospitality shown to us by Dale and Donna. I only wish we would have had more time to spend lingering on the beautiful porch and enjoying the peace and tranquility. Breakfast was amazing! We hope to return soon!!
5 out of 5The Oaks is special...
June 27, 2010
because of the owners, Dale & Donna. We were welcomed from the minute we stepped in the door. What a relaxing weekend we had sitting on the porch drinking wine and lingering on the deck long after breakfast was finished chatting with the other guest and our hosts. The Inn is lovely, clean and very comfortable. If our travels take us through Saluda again we will be sure to stop and stay at The Oaks.
