Nestled among lofty peaks in the Great Smoky Mountains and just off the Blue Ridge Parkway, this historic inn was built in 1908 to serve the highest railway depot in the East. The inn was restored in 1991, and now offers 50 cheerful rooms, two 100-foot porches with rockers and a view, a 2,000 volume library, and gracious dining. Plump pillows and soft comforters inspire pleasant dreams, while the friendly staff attends to your every need. Guests enjoy the spacious lobby with two toasty fireplaces, wicker furniture, and oriental rugs, as well as hallways filled with the work of talented local artists and craftsmen.
