We having always enjoyed staying here with the rustic atmosphere, river balconies and convenience to local shops, restaurants and Chimney Rock State Park and were so glad it reopened along with other places in town. The only negative is staff/office is not always available onsite (but we didnt need anything important) and no ice machine (but we were fine with our cooler and fridge in room).
Back porch replaced and still standing strong
New path of river since flooding

We stayed one night on our way home from a mountain trip. As Chimney Rock is a favorite of ours, we wanted to see how the recovery was going and support the communities recovery. The Inn is fully restored. It was peaceful to sit on the porch and watch the river. You can obviously tell there is a lot more to restore and rebuild. We will return to continue to support the community

Location was great! It was close enough to walk up town, so we didn't have to worry about finding a parking place. We enjoyed sitting on the private deck listening to the river. Though no fault of the management, we had some very loud neighbors that kept us awake until very late and woke us up very early. It was a quaint little lodge and we will be back!

Everything was perfect, no need for complaints but if I must leave a negative remark, it would be the walls are thin so maybe bring a sound machine or something to help if you are a light sleeper. I would definitely return
