A unique and very comfortable place to stay in Rutherfordton, NC during IEA National Jumper Championship. Super convenient on-street parking and very comfortable beds. Very close to the Tryon International Equestrian Center. The old updated municipal center made for a very interesting Inn and a nice tour by Mary, the Inn Keeper. She is very friendly, accommodating and always looking for a way to make your stay even better. Donna, the chef, prepared a delicious breakfast and told us more about the Inn's history. The Inn is working to add more event spaces. We hope to see how it all turns out on our next visit.

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.

Girls trip!
Posted 9 Dec 2023 on HotelsWe were met by the innkeeper (Mary) upon arrival and given a brief tour. She could not have been more welcoming, and was very responsive to any of our needs or inquiries during our stay. The Inn was very clean and beautifully decorated for Christmas! Donna took great pride in preparing the food and joyfully served each guest with a delicious, beautifully plated breakfast. I would definitely stay here again!

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!

Neat place with awesome breakfast!
Posted 12 Nov 2023 on HotelsSuch a neat place to say! Enjoyed seeing the features still visible from the days when it was City Hall and a fire station. We stayed in Suite 6 and it was huge! Could have easily fit 6 or more in there. The best part was the breakfast - each morning was different and so much food! Donna was an excellent chef and host, and she made our day start amazing each morning. Highly recommend!

Posted 31 Oct 2023 on HotelsI thoroughly enjoyed staying here. The breakfast cooked by Ms. Donna was absolutely delicious and homemade. We had something different each day. The Inn is about an hour from Asheville but Rutherfordton has cute stores and places to eat and get coffee. The Purple Martin Greenway is just down the street and there is another similar path in Forest City nearby. The Inn was cozy and cute!
