Absolutely amazing. Every time I stay here it’s amazing. Mary is knowledgeable and friendly. Deborah was a rock star with breakfast. If in the area this is a must stay place.

Wonderful hotel

Visited for a spartan weekend at Tyron equestrian centre. Fantastic hotel, feels more like a home away from home and the staff so were so friendly and welcoming. Delicious breakfast freshly cooked and very accommodating of our early starts despite the late notice.

Wonderful Visit at the Firehouse Inn

We had a wonderful stay at the Firehouse Inn. The staff made the stay great, and the breakfast was amazing. The building and room were beautiful. If we ever are in the area again, we will stay at the Firehouse Inn.

It has been a home away from home for us for years. Great place to go and visit local wineries or a trip to the Biltmore.

The common areas are beautiful and very comfortable. There is also a charming courtyard to hang out in. Breakfast was very good. The Inn is walking distance to shops and restaurants. We rented the suite, which was huge!

The Firehouse Inn is a beautiful historic property that was originally a firehouse. It has a large gathering space where we enjoyed a delicious breakfast prepared by Donna. The Inn was beautifully decorated for Christmas and we enjoyed our visit there very much! We would highly recommend a stay here while visiting the area.

Wonderful place to stay!

Amazing facility with adorable rooms and living room/dining room. The courtyard is a great place to relax or do yoga. Donna provided fantastic breakfast and conversation. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. She even packed breakfast sandwiches for our early morning departure the last day. We will be back.

Dee, 2-night trip

Way better than our other option. Old but well kept. Suite #1 is the bomb. Donna is a great chef and you get a gourmet breakfast. The Dining / Living Area is fabulous.
Joseph, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Host and chef were both amazing folks and made everyone most welcome. The room/atmosphere were amazing and were very much Hallmark-ish. Will be a return trip for my wife and I: the creaking old stairs, the made breakfast(s) every morning (sad we only got one, but due to our stay and early morning, missed the other 2), and wow---definitely a great trip. Highly recommend!
