Cabins are far from one another, so you will have no problem imagining you are the only ones on the mountain, but with all possible amenities at your fingertips. The gray stone exterior of this four-story inn links it to the Scottish influence of Linville, just south on the same highway. Built against the hillside, the inn's first two floors offer parking lot entrances. The 100 rooms of the Graystone Lodge have a number of comfortable variations that include luxury suites with king-size beds, parlors and vaulted ceilings. The inn also features an indoor heated pool.
Special discounts are available.
For those of you who don't like to fool with the intimacy of a bed and breakfast, who prefer to be left to your own devices or who prefer to spend your money on sightseeing, gifts and food instead of accommodations, then the Hemlock Inn is for you. This motel-style inn is just off Blowing Rock's main street. It offers tidy rooms with double, queen or kind-size beds, air conditioning, private baths and the added plus of a kitchenette in every room. A microwave, coffee pot and refrigerator allow you to be quite independent in your travels here. Or if you plan on heavy-duty cooking, suites are available with fuly equipped kitchens.
