    My husband and I had been traveling up from Georgia and had taken The Blueridge Parkway from NC on. It had been a long day on the road and when we finally arrived at The Mountain Rose it was like arriving home! Dora waited for us to arrive (we were a few minutes late) and made us feel like family. The Inn itself is beyond wonderful. The pool, the grounds, and the comforting rooms make it one of the (if not THE) most pleasant places we have ever visited. I HIGHLY recommend it, and we WILL be back next summer for a glass of sherry and a dip in the gorgeous pool. One night was NOT enough!!! Mrs. Paula Kirsch ps the wood thrushes sing for free, but they were priceless!

    We recently spent a weekend at Mountain Rose Inn. It was delightful! The setting of the house is lovely, the house itself is quite beautiful, and the innkeepers did everything possible to make us feel welcome. Michael & Dora Jane are incredibly hospitable, and their breakfasts are delicious! We swam, hiked and played badminton on the grounds. From the hammock under the trees near the creek to the gorgeous humming birds that visit to the rocking chairs on the porch, there is something here for everyone. We left refreshed and relaxed. We look forward to going back one day.

    We could not have picked a better place to have our wedding ceremony! We chose the Intimate Wedding Package and invited close family to be a part of our weekend celebrations. The atmosphere was welcoming, peaceful, and enjoyable! Every detail was attended to by the innkeepers, Mike & Dora Jane. The gift baskets in the room upon arrival, the bouquet of flowers in the bride's room, the snacks and drinks in the guest refrigerator, the afternoon cookies, the beautiful views inside and outside the inn, the hammock swing and deck near the stream, the spacious yard for family games, the fire pit for gathering around in the evening, and the delicious meals are only the highlights of this outstanding venue. We have already decided to make the Mountain Rose Inn one of our regular places to visit!
