Location. Location. Location. For the places we like to go and the things we like to see in this part of the NC mountains, we like having Blowing Rock as our home base. The Homestead is walking distance to everything in BR so having options for shopping, drinking and dining without driving is a big plus. Beds, linens and pillows are all satisfying. Fireplace in room is a great touch. Keurig, jet tub, ceiling fan, AC window unit, flat screen Spectrum service, internet, fridge and microwave in our two-bed room. The room is adequate for two adults. It would be too small and very frustrating for four people with luggage.

Parking is tight. We have stayed in three of the rooms and they are either cramped or very cramped. Bathrooms are very small in some of them and ample people will have little wiggle room.

This little inn is charming and the location can’t be beat! This trip was a month long road trip planned for myself and my daughter, 30 and blind. We met several people at the inn who stay on a regular basis. Sat on the covered patio outside the room in the rain enjoying each other’s company. The room was rustic, very clean, the bed was comfortable and we liked having the mini fridge and microwave. The staff were warm, welcoming and quick to offer suggestions for restaurants. Would come back in a heartbeat.

The window air conditioner above my head was a little noisy, but I get they only had so many options to provide it in this setting without changing the integrity of a historical setting.

The location of the inn was so great! Everything in the downtown of Blowing Rock was within walking distance and that made our trip so relaxed. We didn't have to worry about parking on the street (there was parking at the inn) or drinking a bit too much at dinner. We loved that aspect of this location. The room was cute and rustic, what I would expect for a mountain inn. The quilt above the bed had cats on it and we thought it was ironic because we have three cats at home. It was a nice touch. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was a decent size. The mini fridge was a good addition, though you could eat out each night in the town if you stay here. The property was really great as well, but we didn't get to take advantage of much because it was very cold and windy during our trip. I loved the overall aesthetic.

Only downside was the walls seem to be a bit thin and our neighbor's *nighttime activities* woke me up, but not my husband. The HVAC can be a bit loud coming on, but I think I'm a light sleeper and that didn't help.

The location , staff was very friendly. Room was nice and cozy. Beautiful place to stay with all the flowers and work that was done on the property. Such beautiful flowers. Loved the fire pit especially when it got cool in the evening time. Most of all pet friendly for our fur baby. Will definitely come back.

Great location for a night in Blowing Rock! Everything is in walking distance from the motel. The bed was very comfortable!

I thought it could have been a little bit cleaner. The bathroom definitely could have been cleaner, and the tops of the tables in the room were dusty.

The property was beautiful, couldn't believe how the flowers were blooming. (amazing). Room was very clean and inviting. Everyone made us feel welcome. The motel was in walking distance of everything.

The coffee in the office wasn't available when we got there, already gone by 7 am

Within walking distance of downtown. Room was clean & comfortable. Staff was friendly… Flowers & landscaping on the property was beautiful!

Wish there was a breakfast buffet available in the office area. Coffee maker available in the room however along with mini-fridge.

The location was perfect, we were walking distance to anything in Blowing Rock. We also loved the room, it was very clean and everything worked well.

There was quite a bit of noise. We could hear neighbors easily through the walls. There were also high winds that were whistling through the rafters at night.

This stay was one of the best on our trip!! Everyone was so friendly!! I cannot say enough about the adorable room and how super clean it was. We truly have never been in a place so immaculate. We loved the retro aspect. The gardens were fabulous and artistic. I was sorry not to be able to stay and linger a few more days-weeks-months!!

Seriously? Not a thing!!!

It was beautiful. Friendly and helpful staff. Fantastic location to walk the town. Exceptionally clean. This will be our first choice every time we visit Blowing Rock from now on.

There wasn't anything not to like. There was nothing not to like.
