Great stay!
The Inn was great! We were in a king suite that was huge. Great living room area and big comfy king bed. Plenty of room with nice touches for us and our pup. The staff was fantastic.

Weathering the storm
Here is the most important fact, when you find yourself in a spot where you need help you will have people that that will do their job and not go above and beyond to help and you will have people that will do everything in their power to help you. People at Inn at Shady Lawn helped us when the storm didn’t make roads passable and went above and beyond for solutions for us until the roads became passable. We should all try to live our lives this way no matter what our circumstances are. Thank you all for helping us weather the storm… literally!!!

My hat goes off to the area for doing the best they can do do too the effects from a massive hurricane weeks prior. So there wasn't as many businesses open do to being flooded out. Room was clean and staff was great. We'd stay again.

Just What I Needed!
I booked a Single Room for a 2 night stay with my Beagle to getaway for a little. Everyone was so nice that works at the Inn! Plenty of spots to walk my dog (not to mention all the mountains around) and the room was just what I needed! Clean and comfortable. Thanks again!

Smells funny
Was just OK. Overheard a conversation that the room had a smell and needed further cleaning. Waited another hour. Went I. And window was open but still a smell. Nowhere else to stay so I just put up with it. Learning to always have Lysol with me on a business trip!

We stayed in the two bedroom apartment, which was so comfortable and perfect for families! Location is right in town and about 10 min from Grandfather Mountain.

The owners were super friendly and helpful. We loved our stay but the carpets are needing replacement as they are outdated and worn. The bathroom was updated though with a newer shower. We would stay here again as the price was right for what it was a mountain inn in a small mountain town.
