The view from this place was absolutely amazing, we loved staring out the window and reading our books. The lodge is well made, but the beds could be updated, we found the mattresses to be a bit cheap and squeaky, but that’s something that could easily be fixed. We must say that the location was ideal, it’s located halfway up a fun, winding driveway between the town of Asheville and hikes like Craggy Gardens. Overall great stay and we were tempted to stay longer!
