From cozy bed and breakfasts to the grandeur of Biltmore Estate, the Blue Ridge Parkway has plenty of places to stay during your next trip. Here are some of our picks:
Balsam Mountain Inn is nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. Part of the National Registry of Historic Places, this 100 year old inn is short drive away from Mast General Store and Dillsboro River Company. Pet-friendly room are available by request.
Blueberry Villa is run by the owners of Banner Elk Winery, so many of the rooms are cleverly identified with the names of wine (for example, the Cabernet Grande Fireplace Suite, which is swathed in rich shades of red and accented with dark wood furniture). Two of the bedrooms have fireplaces for a romantic weekend getaway.
Inn on Biltmore Estate has appeared on Condé Nast Traveler’s Top 100 Hotels for two years in a row. The Inn features an outdoor pool and hot tub, as well as a library and in-room movies. Breathtaking mountain views and elegantly decorated guest rooms make for a memorable stay.
Linville Falls Lodge offers lodge accommodations or quiet secluded cottages for a relaxing family or couple’s vacation. This family-owned establishment is a short drive to Linville Caverns and The Historic Orchard at Altapass.
