We napped in the Garden Room one afternoon while listening to the sounds of the water garden through an open window, we enjoyed the cool breezes and the views off the back deck, we had a complimentary cup of herbal tea with honey each night before bed, and we slept like the dead on the comfortable, luxury sheets each night. The breakfasts were delicious, the views divine, the entire experience was top notch and I can't wait to go back! The hosts were helpful, friendly, and accessible. They know what they're doing and they make the place a nice little mountain oasis for their guests. Don't hesitate, just book it!

This restaurant is an experience and the service is great, HOWEVER... family style is fine but…read morethere is sooooo much wasted food there. The only things u can take home with you have to be wrapped in a napkin. So if someone at your table wants more of anything the whole serving is wasted. It's probably great for a group, but for a couple, it's too much and too expensive.

My friend and I had a wonderful mountain retreat in Boone/Blowing Rock area. We wanted somewhere…read morethat was away from the hustle and bustle which is why we picked Little Pond Farm. This house was so beautiful and short distance to Boone, Blowing Rock, and Banner Elk. We both loved the atmosphere of this inn. It was very clean with very nice décor. We purchased the breakfast part and we had delicious breakfast multiple days. I had shirred eggs for the first time and it was probably one of my favorite breakfast I have ever had. The parfaits were also top notch and I been making them at home since! We also purchased the sauna session which was a nice to have after our days of walking and hiking. Recommend for anyone who is wanting to get away and enjoy a great relaxing vacation. I feel the inn would be perfect for a family reunion, bachelorette weekend, or group retreat since there are multiple rooms with really nice common areas.

I left the following message via email and text as there was no attendant present and have never…read moreheard back. Management, Please know that we have chosen to depart early from the Cousin Sarah suite. While we appreciate historical sites and consider ourselves history buffs, this suite is unacceptable. I have attached a few photos of areas needing attention but the most notable was the bed. My husband and I could not stay another night on this mattress. It has no center support and we kept rolling towards the center all night. Additionally it is too soft. Perhaps firmness is of personal preference, however, it truly is past its useful life. It felt as if there was a piece of foam laid over the mattress in order to extend its life. In regard to the photos, a deep cleaning is in order, attention to detail as well as fresh paint and we would happily pay more in order to stay at such a North Carolina landmark. We appreciate your understanding and wish you and your business all the best.

Tessa is extremely rude. Bernard was actually very nice and was the only reason I even considered…read moreadding a star but truly the stay was the worst I've ever stayed in. There are water stains all over the ceilings. The walls are cracked due to foundation issues. Our room had cobwebs. The beds are so uncomfortable you can feel each spring. The worst part for me was the black mold all over the bathroom walls. I even found a live roach which I was accused of bring because they said "we don't have roaches". Interesting since the entire inn was full. Then i was told it was a grasshopper. I attached a photo, don't worry. So you can decide. Lastly, we can't eat in the room. So we went downstairs to eat in the dining room. Tessa said no you can't eat here. Go outside. So we ate outside like dogs. Don't stay here

We always prefer B&Bs and inns to corporate hotels so we booked a Sunday and Monday night here…read moreprior to the fourth of July. We booked the Little Room which is actually next to the main house. They told us up front that cell phone reception was spotty, and they were right, but they do offer wi-fi. Our room felt a little musty at first but we turned on the AC until nighttime when the air was quite cool and comfortable. We enjoyed our relaxing stay and sat on our porch during some summer storms. In the evening, we had some complimentary tea and brownies and rocked in the chairs outside the main house. One evening we even heard bagpipes playing (must have been practicing for the Highland Games). Breakfast was delicious both days. There are no TVs in the rooms, which was fine with us. Even though the inn is on a remote country road, we were still surprised to hear cars and trucks go by throughout the night.

The Breakfast in the morning was good something satisfying to eat for Just about everyone. This is where it get's bad. Our first Night I was cold. I couldn't set the unit because it read E5. So I called and asked for help. I was put on hold and forgotten about. I called again and finally got someone to come up to fix it, done in 1 minute. The worst part, we found that our door NEVER LOCKED. That's right we went out to eat and leaving our valuables as well as sleeping in an unlocked room. When I called the front desk to complain, "the maintenance man will be here in half an hour. " I, I call back an hour later wondering what is happening. "The maintenance man didn't come in. My manager said we will have to move you." What I want to know, is when was the front desk going to inform me? This is my vacation and I'm spending it in an unlocked room waiting for them to put me somewhere safe.

I really liked the homemade biscuits and German apple pancake the best. We also had yummy cookies and cake available when we wanted a snack.

The next day I get an email with an additional $80 charge. I called the location to see why I was charged a "Pet Cleaning Fee" on this itemized receipt. She asked if I had a pet with me, to which I had responded I did. She said that they were a newly pet friendly hotel and that is their charge for the pet. I explained that I had booked on my app and nowhere did I see an $80 charge for the stay. I would never had stayed there for that fee. In fact, I've never seen anything over $50 for a pet stay. While talking to the woman on the phone, she cuts me off and says, had we known you had a dog we would have greeted your dog and given her a treat. Well, the front desk personnel must've been particularly blind since she acknowledged us walking through the lobby with our bags and my seven year old black lab, walking on her own four feet. I will not be going back, and I will be advising all wedding guests to book literally anywhere else for their stay. The room with taxes was $100 for me to stay. Add my dog for $80 and it was almost double the cost. I could literally board her for several days for that price! I don't know why I bothered to have my dog stay on her own blanket to avoid having hair in the hotel room. Had I known, I would've had my dog stay with me in bed where she is most comfortable.

The outside of the hotel was nice and it was easy to find, which gave us a good first impression…read more Unfortunately, that's where the positives ended. Our room was honestly disgusting. The floors clearly hadn't been vacuumed--there were crumbs next to the table and even beer caps under the AC unit. The microwave made a loud, alarming noise within seconds of turning it on, like it was about to break or worse. The bed skirt was covered in stains, which just added to the overall lack of cleanliness. The issues weren't limited to the room. The lights at the end of our hallway were burned out, and there was a strong smell of marijuana coming from somewhere on our floor. While the front desk staff was polite, they seemed visibly irritated and mentioned working a double shift, which showed in their demeanor. Breakfast was also disappointing--the juice machine was out of order and replaced with a random bottle of juice, which felt like an afterthought. Overall, while the exterior looked promising, the experience inside was very poor. I would not stay here again.
